A new image has surfaced online of the bomb, hidden in a soda can, that ISIS claims was responsible for downing a Russian airliner over Egypt late last month, killing more than 200 people.

The image, included in the latest issues of an ISIS magazine, shows a soda can and what explosives experts told ABC News are a blasting cap and an electric initiator. The ISIS magazine said the image showed “the IED [improvised explosive device] used to bring down the Russian airliner.”

What really shocks me about this, is when did Schweppes make a pineapple soda. I bet it beats the hell out of a Mr Big Shot.

It doesn't take a big bomb to rip apart a over-pressurized commercial airliner.

I meant with a simple x-ray or search it should have been spotted. That wouldnt make it on a plane in the US

Serious question, does every can of soda get scanned going onto a plane? Even the ones the flight attendants hand out? I realize the ones brought by passengers do.

Eta- the cans brought through security wouldn't make it on the plane anyway...

But ones purchased past security would, and may or may not be individually scanned.

You're right. I think someone at the airport in Egypt had to be in on it.

You give the TSA too much credit.

Regardless, you're about 2000x more likely to die in a car crash. I say let's crack down on the frickers texting and driving first before we worry about a soda can bomb.

To the tune of the Hymn Pass it On


It only takes a spark,
To get a soda bomb blowing.
And soon all those around,
Will die in the exploding.
That's how it is with Al-lah,
Once you're a Muslim.
You want his love,
You need his love,
You want to Ji-had.
