To be brutally honest, for any terrorist group worth their salt, that's a mighty tempting target.

Yes it would be, and while all eyes are looking up a nuke is delivered by say a train, a truck or other means, a diversion, the plane event is “manufactured” to be a diversion.

Same with Israel, they focus all their energy up and not at ground level.

I’m wondering why the media isn’t jumping on this march 24th date, its a ripe and juicy headline if nothing else, unless they were told not to talk about it.
So far all this morning FOX is just repeating stale headlines about the missing jet.

A lot of it is the “hindsight effect”.

Sometimes, things that may seem unrelated turn out, in hindsight, to be related; it’s just that no one put 2+2 together beforehand.

The Hague is also a major port city; a nuclear device could easily be brought in via the seas.

When it comes to terrorist groups, a lot of times - with jihadist groups in particular - there’s a tendency to underestimate their imagination. While most of us - myself included - look at a lot of their various schemes as either harebrained or little more than cartoon supervillainy, at the same time, it shows on their part that they’re clearly thinking “out of the box” in ways that conventional thinking fails to grasp and therein lies the danger.

Boeing 777 Airliner

The Boeing 777 is a family of long-range wide-body twin-engine jet airliners developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Top speed: 590 mph (950 km/h)

About a 1,000 mile radius should do it!

That would cover all of Egypt, Iraq Jordan, Syria and extend to Iran’s border.

Makes you realize how lucky we are in the USA to have oceans as neighbors for much of our country. Poor Israel, in less than one hour they are very vulnerable from many enemy cities.

Jerusalem to Tehran is 970 miles

Jerusalem to Syria - Damascus 135 miles

Jerusalem to Lebanon - Beirut 146 miles

Jerusalem to Egypt - Cairo 265 miles

Jerusalem to Iraq - Baghdad 547 miles

Beware of the “Ides of March”.... Shakespeare 1601

Adar, 22, 1430
Earthquake Saves Roman Jews from Forced Conversion
The church and the government of Rome set Wednesday, March 6, 1430, as the day when all the Jews of Rome must convert or face death. On that day a great earthquake shook Rome and many of the archbishops and priests who conceived the decree were killed. Following the earthquake, Pope Martin V annulled the decree.

I know.... March 6th nor the 24th are the Ides....

Then over on the Gulf is Dubai and the tallest building in the world. The wealth and Arab sinners there must be anathema to the radical fundamentalist wackos

When I think on it, the Burj Khalifai makes a stronger statement thany target in America or Israel.

Jewish love for Jerusalem drew unexpected praise from the head of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror organization, who told religious leaders in Tehran that the Jews show their love for the city more than Muslims do

"The group is considered to be one of Hamas’s largest rivals for control of the Strip and enjoys close ties with Iran"

The longer the bad guys wait with that plane not he ground, the moare they are risking this mission.

Expect something to happen soon. Might be good to be out of the stock market the first day or two.
