Doesn’t explain how the plane went off the radar. Diego Garcia is a long way from where it first went black - plenty of time for the military to make it known to the world that it was out of control and being tracked, if that was the case.
Its not strange that it might have been shot down. What’s strange is that no country admits knowing this, when you know they all do. My theory is that it was vaporized by a scalar weapon no one wants to admit exists, possibly even from orbit (which they REALLY don’t want to admit). Reason being a missile or bomb would have left traceable wreckage in the relatively shallow waters where it disappeared, but no such wreckage, not even a scrap, was ever found.
If it *was* shot down by us the spooks at DoD and NSA just might have their reasons to keep it hush hush.
There has been this claim all along, that it was a ‘false flag’ event, and here is one link. Not sure about the website, as I am unfamiliar with it....there is some convincing material here but still falls in the conspiracy theory filed....it does make most sense though.
