Thing is Richard Quest actually knows his shit. His stuff on CNN Business Traveller is good stuff, plus he hosts brainy industry-y stuff like this for CAPA https://vimeo.com/151195102

EDIT: his "Around The World In 8 Days" adventure is some of his best http://www.cnn.com/2016/04/...

ISIS has been going hog wild blowing up public places in Iraq for the last week, but the 200+ they've killed have all been brown people, so the US media haven't noticed.

It's looking like this tragedy was caused by a "technical malfunction", most likely a fire in a wiring conduit near the avionics bay, rather than an act of terrorism.Trump's classic statesmen-like tweet "Great hate and sickness" could come back and bite him in the arse.
