So far there isn't much of a clue. Hardly any facts known. (to us) But what can we expect from a bunch that can't tell time, don't bother checking passports, don't really know who all boarded or what the state of their luggage may be. 777's may be good craft, but you have to be careful who you let operate them.
I'm trying to think of something I can do to show my concern. I'm at a loss. If it happened here, like twin towers, or the Katrina catastrophe, I'd be able to do something to be supportive. Anyone else feel like this? I mean, I'd go hang a card at my local airport if I thought it would help. That sounds dumb, I know. What to do?
Not too much you can do. Apparently Malaysia can't decide if the left wants to sit or the right wants to get up. One day it went north, the next it did a u-turn, and now it went west. How can you tell what to do next? When you cannot even figure out which direction it went, how are you supposed to know what to do now?
Honestly, I've not the brain power to know what they should be doing. Everyone is lying about something it seems. Maybe there are things they are doing that require secrecy in order to be successful? I can't envision a happy ending. Not at all. And I'm not really a pessimist. Sigh..
They have been less than transparent and not accurate. They let everyone search pointless areas. China, nam and the world are pissed at them and rightly so. They screwed up.
By your comment, it seems you probably don't care much for the topic. As an event, this is major, this disappearance of MH370. Today, with so much information immediately at our fingertips, via the Internet, many become quickly bored, disinterested, and move on to the next big deal. I am surprised that folks HERE, don't seem all that interested. Perhaps if this event could be made into a liberal vs republican discussion/argument, it may have caught on here. Seeing as many countries are having to find a way to work together for a common cause, well, that just doesn't fit here. But hey, is anyone talking about mrs. O? Nervy woman, her. Fine time to head to China..
Honestly, I really doubt it will end up being particularly interesting in the end. It will be a plane that crashed intentionally or unintentionally and took a long time to find. And certainly not top of the page on CNN.com for weeks interesting. If anything maybe it will make people understand that the ocean is big if they didn't already know.

While this site is politically-focused, most of us do indeed care about the people on that ill-fated flight. The issue I personally have is one of endless and repetitive speculation in the news-media....an over-saturation of events that are not necessary. While an hourly mention of the progress is healthy, 24 hours of coverage a day is too much...considering the fact that this is a "waiting-game"...where the facts are not going to be known for years, if ever.
822. Malaysia airliner missing was created by the Feds (3/20/2014) It was done to justify the coming airplane’s incident. In my story, to frame me in fake money case, the Feds have to eliminate my relatives – they are all witnesses. In recent three years, each time the Feds planned a case, they arranged a cruise tour trip for my relatives. See “811. Cruise – a murder trap (1/18/2014)”. In that article, I revealed that each time for a trip, the Feds used to create an incident in advance – either an “engine room fire” in a cruise or a “boat sinking” or “food poisoning” to cover up the coming case as a common one – not particularly ralated to any individual person. So was this Malaysia Airliner’s accident. Malaysia Airline MH370 disappeared on March 8. I think it was used to justify the coming airplane accident in later March. My wife said she was going to Philippine via Shanghai at the end of this month. This means the Feds has plotted a case in late March and arrange her a South East Asia air trip. My other relatives could be arranged in trip too at that time. Since they are all recruited by the Feds, they’ll have to follow the order of the Feds when it suddenly gives one. That was why Malaysia airline was chosen. 1. Most victims are Chinese ethnic like my wife’s (or my rlatives’) 2. It was South East airline where my wife will fly. I predict the missing plane crashed somewhere far away in deep south India ocean. The purpose is to eliminate any possible trace of a plot. That’s why MH370 changed its way dramatically to the west and tried to avoid any detection from the ground. Watch the map. In turning point, north is Vietnam; east is Philippine; South is Malaysia and Indonesia. To west is the shortest way to Indian Ocean. Forget those hijacker or suicide news. They are used to distract your views and to delay the searches. No hijackers or suicides have such intention to play hide and seek game at this time. How could they do this? I allege it was the same way they did in 911 attack. Everyone knows the drone is very popular today. It’s a skilled technique to pilot a plane with set up computer data. (or even by remote control) With pre-set computer data, at the turning point, the auto pilot system took over the control of the plane. The pilot can do nothing with it even if they were alive at the time. To drop an airplane is a rare event. This may indict the Feds has made a big plot in late March. Watch with your eyes with my story in your mind. Tomorrow is Friday, the day the Feds like to act. Because there are two extra days (week ends) for them to carry murder in jail. 823. Prepare for a nuke attack on New York (3/24/2014) Other symptoms indicate the Feds have a big plot in this March. As I always said, they will activate big terror attack to distract my case. One is a “terrorist nuke attack in New York”. (see #762 and #763) To justify it as a revenge of Al Qaida for the trial on their leader, there is: To prepare a trial, it used to be a long time. Those who are in Quantanamo – how long have they been detained? More than a decade. This man, arrested in Turkey in 2013, from extradition to be in New York court room in March, 2014, you can see how efficient it is. Because the Feds need a justification for a nuke terror attack in New York to cover up their plot. This is the same tactic that they created the mysterious Malaysia airline plane missing – to justify the coming air accident in South East Asia air route. (see last message #822) The Feds plans to nuke New York to justify why so many people are sick and died with radiation related cancer. That they could blame the death on coming “Al Qaida nuke attack”.
No good comment here. I've got to think on this. I'm hoping they find one small remnant of anything at all from that plane or from one person on it. Otherwise..there really is no closure. I feel badly for everyone involved..except the lawyers already coming forward. And, I am warmed on the inside that so many countries are working together for the moment. (A silly thing to say)
I think we've learned something about ourselves through this tragedy. The media. The inevitable conspiracies. The actual lessons that glare at anyone paying attention. What have you learned?
I'm going to come back to this, because it is important to me. I'm 56. Been down the road and back..watched my husband die in front of me, unable to do anything about it, just watch and be there, wait. I've learned a lot about people, and about life, really, I have. I've now encountered and handled things I never dreamed I would be able to. That said, this thing, this event, well, I just don't get it! And I'm not sure why it bugs me so much. Probably because there's no sense and no explanation for it. It happened. Like a lot of bad things just happen. But what I have learned? I'm coming back to that. Lucy
You seemed to have tapped into what I was thinking through much of the same circumstances. Its not unusual to be more affected by these far away tragedies when you are still grieving yourself. I'm in my mid 50's as well and have been very fortunate to have all of my 8 brothers and sisters with me my whole life. Death in a family of 9 kids is almost expected and I have been blessed to been able to avoid losing any of them until September. My brother 1 year younger died at the end of the month and my sister 1 year older died in January. Its been a long winter. I hope you get past this time and thrive. Call it Lucy 2.0.
824. Unusual snowstorm attack New York (3/30/2014) It is late March now. East coast and New York is still attacked by snow storm. As a matter of fact, for more than three months, New York has been besieged by extra cold weather. Springtime Snow 'Bomb' Takes Aim at Northeast Saturday, 22 Mar 2014 According to AccuWeather, the storm could spread all the way from the Carolinas up the East Coast into Maine, and has the potential of dumping heavy snows along its path. As a result, the Canadian Meteorologist Centre's GGEM says the snow could rank as one of New York City's deepest, dumping two feet of the white stuff by Wednesday. http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/snow-bomb-northeast-US/2014/03/22/id/561117#ixzz2wuY9Ax5Q This is planned to prevent people from going to New York. As I have alleged that the Feds is to activate a nuke bombing (or dirty bomb attack) in New York, partly to justify the unusual high rate of radiation related cancer caused by 911 attack, the main purpose is to distract Kat Sung’s case. Extra weather condition would keep people staying at home. That would reduce the casualty of a nuke attack and possible lawsuits thereafter. That’s why we saw in recent years, New York has been suffered of extraordinary weather: over heat in summer; extra long cold weather; and rare hurricane (remember Hurricane Sandy?). This March marked with some unusual events: 1. Convict of Bin Laden’s son in law in New York – to justify a revenge terrorist attack from Al Qaida. 2. Unusual snow storm – a method to reduce the casualty of that attack because it will be nuclear one. 3. Mysterious missing of Malaysia airline that is used to justify planned air accidents if the main plot going through. 825. How did they kill the crew and passengers (4/3/2014) The media is busy to spread disinformation from the “strategy office” to confuse people that public neglected one key information from original news. MH 370 was climbing to 45,000 feet when it turned sharply to the west. The auto pilot system took over the control of the plane and open the passage of internal cabin to the outside air space. The low temperature and low air pressure as well as low oxygen at that altitude disabled all people(include pilots) inside the plane in seconds, then killed them all. This information revealed the killing of the crew and passengers started as soon as the plane was hijacked to a new track. The hijacker was the pre-set auto pilot system. Then it descended to below normal cruising level. At that time nobody was alive inside the plane and the only mission for the ghost plane was to elude the detection of ground radar as possible as it could and flied as far away as it could to make the search a difficult one. The following chart explained the odd track of MH 370. http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/imag...alaysian_airliner_search_976map_250314_v3.gif decompression Altitude - Moderate Activity - Sitting Quietly 25 000 feet - 2 minutes - 3 minutes 28 000 feet - 1 minute - 1.5 minutes 30 000 feet - 45 seconds - 1.25 minutes 35 000 feet - 30 seconds - 45 seconds 40 000 feet - 18 seconds - 30 seconds 45,000 feet - ?? seconds - ?? seconds http://www.reddit.com/r/MH370/comments/211qv0/time_of_useful_consciousness_at_40000_feet_in_a/
I'm afraid I have to agree with Stu on this assessment. We all have personal losses and tragedies after all and we all deal with them in our own way. How does the media cover your personal loss or tragedy? Generally they don't when you get down to it. Our families and friends help. Simple truth. When a plane disappears it's different. BIG news because it's multiplied (the amount of people) and international (in this case). Furthermore people want to know what, if anything, was wrong with that plane. BIG news and we may never have the answer. On the other hand people disappear every day and it doesn't get the same coverage in most cases. It does at first but......... Closure would be my biggest issue.
Not particularly interesting...hmmmm. I can't imagine the mystery of this vanished airliner being "not particularly interesting." Yes, we all suffer losses in life. Some are very harsh. Most all hurt like the dickens. There are lots of horrid tragedies, atrocities everywhere, every day. Doesn't mean "no big deal", and wow, when everyone gets to be thinking that way, that's a lot of what? Apathy?
For starters LucyRay if I offended you I did not intend to. I look at it as reality in a world that is indeed filled with apathy. Empathy has not made this a big story. The mystery has. If we know why the plane went down (assuming it did) we want to know why to possibly avoid it happening again. People eat this stuff up. Good for ratings. THAT'S apathy. In the meantime a bunch of folks recently got swept away in a mudslide in Washington state. A horrible tragedy but not as much mystery so what is getting more media coverage and why?
