have been so confusing and confounding. What if the Malaysian Government or the Airline has been contacted by the hijackers? What if their are some demands being made? What if the hijackers said - don't say anything about this or we'll kill the passengers/hostages? What if we've been fed misinformation to give time to work out this situation with the hijackers?
Maybe that's why we've been getting so much confusing info over the last 5-6 days that this has been going on. Maybe there are negotiations going on behind the scenes and they don't want to jeopardize them.
Maybe they've known all along where the plane is.
There are so many theories out there - this one is just as plausible as some of the others I've heard.

(40,416 posts)They truly did not know. It had to be part of the plan, the only way they thought they could get away. Hijackings are not often successful.
At least that's my working hypothesis, the one that fits the story we're seeing play out.
There is no reason to multiply entities beyond that. Okham's razor.

(12,164 posts)Yesterday CNN had a scroll putting forth another unfounded hypothesis- maybe the lithium batteries caught fire and caused the plane to go down. That is just as likely as anything said.
What is it with people coming up with all these opinions. Will they get to crow if it turns out their's was correct. Nanananana I told you so!
