Malaysia 370...Where are you?
Publisher's note: Unless you live in a cave on Mars, you have to be aware of the unknown fate of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. This tale has all the makings of a Tom Clancy novel; international intrigue, possible terror, scores of passengers hanging in the balance, exotic locales, and the military might of many nations joined in the fray. Just like those great Tom Clancy novels, we're probably not going to know any answers until the last few paragraphs of the final chapter are written.
Until then, all any of us can do is pray, wait, and cling to hope that maybe the 239 souls aboard might somehow be found safe. In the meantime, Diane Sori has painted a very clear picture of what we know, what we don't know, and even what we don't know that we don't know. Time will tell.
Diane Sori: "This is beginning to come together to say that...this had to have been some sort of deliberate act and not a catastrophic failure." - ABC News aviation analyst John Nance
As the search area now encompasses the Gulf of Thailand, the South China Sea, the Strait of Malacca, the Andaman Sea, and the Indian Ocean...the game of who knows what...who's hiding what...and why was it done (if indeed the plane was hijacked) continues on. But in play are 239 human lives...lives I believe are still with us and will be used as bargaining chips at some later time....minus the three NOT quite 'kosher' passengers two of whom were Iranians with stolen passports and one-way tickets, and a Chinese Uighur muslim man with flight simulation training.
The mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370...a Boeing 777-200... grows stranger with each passing hour, but it now seems more and more likely that this plane is NOT missing per se, but is on the ground in some foreign country...in some muslim country...possibly to be used to mimic the events of September 11, 2001.
