It is the second time in less than a year that ISIS has succeeded in using a time bomb to down a passenger plane linked to Egypt.

The first one was a Russian Airbus A321 that took off from Sharm al-Sheikh and blew up over the Sinai Peninsula on October 31. All 224 passengers and crew were killed.

One of the main questions in the investigation of the latest air disaster will be whether the explosive device was planted in Cairo or Paris. If it did happen in Paris, it would raise the question of whether an ISIS cell penetrated the ground crews at Charles de Gaulle airport.

If confirmed, it would be a serious escalation by ISIS following the terrorist organization’s November 2015 attacks in Paris in which 130 people were killed and hundreds were wounded.

A sign of an escalation was that it was the second terrorist attack within three months on a civilian aviation target in a Western European capital, following the bombing of Brussels international airport in March in which 31 people were killed and about 200 were wounded.

But if the investigation finds that the bomb was planted on the plane in Cairo before it departed for Paris, it would mark a serious and dangerous escalation of the infiltration and operational abilities of ISIS in the Egyptian capital, and a major threat to the stability of the regime of President Abel Fattah al-Sisi.

God will protect us against wicked people!!

Lazy French.

All they know how to do is talk, complain, spend 2 hours on lunch, take cigarette breaks and then claim ''Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite''.

They make silly statements that lack any merit like ''France is the most beautiful country in the world yadah yadah yadah''.

I will not be surprised if their security at Charles De Gaule was sloppy. They know how to 'French Wash'' things that are not working fine. They can cover up their terrible system with excuses. It is only after an event that they roll out their lazy military to patrol the city with fat guns standing in metro stations and profiling you based on race. Afterwards they pull them out and then boom! Another attack happens. Then they repeat the same process all over again. A system that gives excuses for laziness and ineptitude referring to them as Positive Cultural Characteristics.

Thank God for the U.K and Germany that supports them. Lazy Lazy Lazy Spoiled Brat French. Let us patiently wait for more information on this unfortunate and sad incident. But it will not surprise me if the soft spot/weak link was on the French End.
