The discussion of the motive is unsatisfying, as clinical depression and a bad marriage doesn't seem to be an adequate motive for the mass murder of hundreds of people.

But otherwise has some interesting discussion, explains why many alternate theories are unlikely.

People have committed mass murder for a number of reasons. Depression or a failed marriage is as good a motivation as any.

He was a muslim and might have seen it as jihad and a way to enter paradise. Possible.

Who says that crazy people need a good reason to do bad things?

Sounds plausible. But I generally don’t take anything the Atlantic publishes seriously. Marxists.

Does CNN still care?
This explanation doesn’t fit its agenda.

I kinda sorta understand suicide.

What I do not understand in the least is suicide that includes the intentional taking of many other lives.

This wouldn’t be the first time. Remember Egypt Air 990?

Looks like you've already forgotten the Germanwings murders.

Long read but my guess is that some day baggage or parts will surface. But I’m going with Allua Akbar as that POS ran out of fuel.

Hi.

I’m going with CNN’s Don Lemon who said a black hole did it.

He should know about black holes.

Oh, so they found the flight data recorder? /s NOT!

If they know so much, where is the plane? Hmmmmm? Just like flight 800, we will NEVER know the truth.

Wait a minute, I know what happened to flight 800. I guess I should have said that it will never be admitted to.

Maybe James Kallstrom, on his deathbed, will clear his conscience.

As you perceive, sufferers of Clinical Depression, who don’t really care enough about anything to eat or get out of bed, are extremely unlikely to summon the energy to plan, practice and carry out a complex mass murder, all while pretending to be normal enough not to alert the airline. The diagnosis for that would be “psychopath” acting on a perceived grievance. My guess is the wife’s departure was an effect, not a cause.

Fact - he was a big fan of a flight simulator and he was recording his flights on that simulator. One flight on the simulator exactly mimicked the actual flight path of the Malaysian flight, and that was the ONLY saved simulation where there was no completion to landing. They think he left that smoking gun on purpose.
