This whole Malaysia disappearing airliner story is pretty much a farce, yes? I mean, I suppose no one really knows the truth [although I'm guessing several people actually do], but sure does seem like this is connected to terrorism and that Malaysia, a Muslim country that has so far avoided the exporting of extremism even though it has certainly harboured some unsavory Islamist types, seems to be pretty desperate to avoid or bury or beat down the terrorism aspect - with the battery life on the black box only having about 25 days left it's almost as if all the confusion and conflicting stories and misdirection is an attempt to run out the clock on that - if terrorism brought the plane down, at this point only the black box can reveal it.
Of course the curious thing is, if terrorism, why has no one taken credit for it? Two most intriguing answers: the plane has been 'stolen', taken somewhere else for some further dark purpose; terrorists have figured out a way to hack into a plane's communications and navigation systems and this was a dry run for a much larger operation, which is why of course you wouldn't want it known - this would also explain why crash debris cannot be found - the plane drifted way off course - and why communications went dead.
Sure, all speculation, I have no idea - but instincts suggest the story reeks of a something else of a troubling nature going on behind the scenes - I'd be very surprised if this ends with the crash site being found and the cause being confirmed as 'accidental'.
