    According to CNN, all the floating debris thus far turned out to not be from the airliner.

    Everything is still a mystery.

    Can't believe they can't find anything. Seems weird.

    So who was on the plane that China and/or Malaysia would want to secretly make disappear?

    I'm thinking weapon-making biologists... #TomClancyCalledIt

    Similarly: From the beginning, they've reported a large oil slick. (Ships often dump oil--not supposed to but they do). Now, I read that the chemical analysis results are in, and the oil slick is not the same kind of oil as the plane used.

    Mossad or the CIA are more likely suspects than China or Malaysia.

    I think they know exactly what happened. Osama Bin Laden sent a tape with 239 hostages in it.

    That seems crazy to type but I can almost believe anything these days.

    About the only place a plane could go and land without being detected would be to Eastern China or East Turkmenistan
    The flight would be over the Indian Ocean, Bangladesh, Nepal and remote western China. Flying over those territories might not have caused any attention.
    If it ain't in the sea, it had to go some where where few are watching.

    How about straight up? That's what happened to the missing squadron in the Bermuda Triangle. The saucer sucked them in.

    OK, so the two passengers with stolen passports were Iranians on their way to europe and they are not suspected terrorists.

    My theory: The young co-pilot was an extremist or nut job and he nose dived the plane.

    That is as good a theory as there is...as you well know it has happened before.

    Albeit a quieter and commoner contemporary lexicon, us conservatives are civilization's bulwark against tinfoil nutjobs with conspiracy theories.

    Being off course is one thing, but flying low and turning off their tracking devices is another. And why go so far off course if your're going to crash a plane?

    So, either a hijacking or the co-pilot (or pilot or both) went nuts.
