There could have been a secret diversion to a hidden location. But that would require the complicity of a country, as well as the installation of blackout electronics in the aircraft beforehand.
Or it got beamed up by ETs.
Otherwise it went down, suddenly and catastrophically, probably from an explosion. The two stolen passports suggest terrorism, IMO.
“The two stolen passports suggest terrorism, IMO.”
I can see why people would think that, and of course it may be correct (whether we ever find out or not). But this plane was a completely Asian gig, it seems to me. Nobody was striking out at the “great satan” by killing these people.
Do we know how common travel on stolen passports is in that part of the world, or even in general? And, now that I’m thinking about it, presumably those travelers where white since they were posing as an Italian and, what was the other one, German?
I don’t know, white terrorists blowing up a Malaysian plane filled with Chinese people? I’m not getting a good picture of who/what this would be.
Radical environmentalists?
Maybe the 2 people using the stolen passports were just ordinary crooks, unlucky ones in this case.
