The story below is about a Nigerian airliner crashin gwith a prominent Islamic cleric on board so I though I would open the betting on how son somebody on the UK newswire tries to link this story to Israel, Mossad, Bush or just Jews in general.

the betting book is

Israeli jet shot in down - 3-1
Mossad drugged the pilot 5-1
Jews were seen dancing near the crash site 10-1
Bush did it by a secret SEAL team 20-1
There never was a plane, it was a holgraphic image transmited from a missile near the area and the entire passenger and crew are now in a secret CIA jail near Memphis 200-1

A Nigerian passenger jet crashed shortly after takeoff from the capital Abuja on Sunday, killing 99 people including the leader of the nation's 70 million Muslims.

Officials said 106 people were on board the Boeing 737 flight to the northern city of Sokoto when it plowed into a corn field about 2 km (1 mile) from the runway.

Seven people survived the crash. It brought the number killed in Nigerian air accidents to at least 335 in the last year.

A Reuters correspondent saw burned bodies, some missing limbs or heads, being loaded onto trucks from the smouldering remains of the fuselage.

Only the plane's tail, an engine and part of a wing were still recognisable at the crash site, an area the size of a football field littered with body parts, smouldering fires and shreds of clothes, bags and metal.

"The smell is something you don't want to remember," said Steve Noble, a British diplomat at the scene.

Among the dead was Ibrahim Muhammadu, who as Sultan of Sokoto was the leader of the Muslim community which makes up about half of Africa's most populous nation.
