Malaysian??? I’ve been thinking it was a chinese or north korean missile for a while...
That’s a good question. I guess my theory is kaputt.
Exactly.
“If it is terrorism, will China regard it as an act of war? “
An act of war is only an act of war if you really want it to be. The Tonkin Gulf incident didn’t even happen and it inaugurated the Viet Nam war. Nazi Germany staged an attack and left dead prisoners wearing German uniforms.
China or Russia could attack a US city with impunity because Obama has already said that the US is big enough to absorb the damage without retaliating.

Perhaps the Maldives. 7 total airports, 2 of which have runways 8600 and 10000 feet (Airbus 380s have landed there) plus the island chain is Islamic.
This is so weird. If they tracked the plane on radar to the Straits of Malacca, why are they still looking in the Gulf of Siam?
You can bet on it! They need time to write a cover story to deflect world anger away from Zeros Muslim brotherhood.
Somewhere there’s
A missing plane
And the searching
Was all in vain
That’s because
It’s now a missile
With a payload
That’s plenty fissile
BURMA SHAVE
Excellent question.
I think we're getting disinformation rather than news. It is CNN, after all…Apparently the plane left Kuala Lumpur and turned off course almost immediately. Surely, someone on the ground noticed that the signals were coming from the wrong direction.
So, they were only over the ocean and did not fly over land.
Also, why didn’t the information that the plane was off course, come out from the get go? Looks like someone is keeping information from the public.
Nor the bottom of the ocean.
Sometimes, groups do it just to stir the ant’s nest and see how people react or just to, well, terrorize people. Again, this expert, and others, have noted that the number of times a group claims responsibility is much smaller than the number of times an act goes unclaimed.
Perhaps it was taken to a remote jungle area to confound authorities who assume it crashed in the ocean. Could this aircraft have made it to Burma, or even Somalia or Afghanistan?
Not at that location. It could only be a nearby government worried about a pending attack. And only the Malaysians would see the plane as “”their property” and regard it as a legitimate threat and target.
Sudden jihadi syndrome. The co-pilot is right age. I’d be looking at his mosque right now.
Burma is quite doable.
..but the MAF would know where they shot it down.
It’s hard to terrorize people if they think it was an accident. The chances of someone having a satellite phone in that part of the world is pretty high.
You need to be near a cell tower for your cell phone to work. No cell towers out in the ocean.
If it was a test run for a Greater Plan, no group would want the spotlight, just yet.
I don't think any credit was taken for any of the pre-bojinka tests either.
