I don’t get why the Pakis would pixx off the Chinese by kidnapping over 100 of their citizens (or even by holding their bodies)- Pak and China have a mutual rival (”enemy”) - India
Can’t think of scenario where the Paks would want to jeopardize the aid they get from China, nor from Boeing and other western airlines who could not approve of this type of hijacking
Plus how does it get to Paki without flying over India and getting hit on radar?
If it flew to the Maldives, picked up fuel and went north....maybe...but even that is a stretch.
I’d sure hate to see China go all jihad on Pakistan! /s
So you are of the opinion that the Chinese government would not be willing to sacrifice 100 nationals if they could help advance -- while keeping their fingers cleanly off -- the nuking of an American or Israeli city.
Pretty sure their calculation is: what's one more or less peasant in the scheme of things?
You have a good point. Maybe this is not sanctioned by those officially in power in Pakistan.

I am thinking that your error is in thinking logically. If, indeed, the mohammedans have the plane and are planning to nuke Israel with it, they are not concerned with future relationships, as they are hoping to bring about the end of the world and the rise of the 12th imam — or whatever that garbage is that they believe.
How long did the Pak ISI get by hiding Osama?
We can’t give in to our wish to bestow our logic onto some of the worst idiots on the planet.
The Paks think they will not be found out, so they feel free to do anything for their cause.
