    I am still scratching my head over the assertion that two passengers from Iran, known to be traveling on stolen passports, are not suspected to be terrorists.

    There are plenty of theories/suspicions as to what my have happened to the plane. Until they find the wreckage and probable cause of the crash there is not much point jumping to conclusions about anything.

    I'm assuming that North Korea spotted the plane a thousand miles from their borders and considered it an aerial attack on their country and responded accordingly.

    Joking about that being a fact? Sadly, no. That was the case...

    You see it's like this Billy-Bob. When you all got two boys being Iranian and all, well you knows they gots to be Muslims and all. All Muslims are terrorists, especially if they are on a plane! WE all know thats! You know 911 and all...Yup, we got two bon-a-fide terrorists! It be as simple as that. There ain't no other way... them people are all terrorists. Damn fools saying otherwise... what's up with them thar idiots??

    Seriously Splashone lol - I don't know what you are trying to say, but it sure reads like you are saying the above. Which is hilarious in its ignorance... of course I am sure that's not what you are saying - just pointing out how it comes across.

    According to American Intelligence, they were two boys of Iranian decent seeking asylum in the west - maybe because they were Christians. Who knows? LOL!!

    Well I take offense to your comment.

    When I consider that law abiding folk tend to have/use their own passports, it just begins to bother me more than a little bit. The next fact that the airplane has disappeared without any distress call seems to indicate something catastrophic happened inflight...quite possibly a bomb. I may not be Sherlock Holmes putting those two facts together point to reasonable suspicion. Now throw in the fact that they were Iranian and it certainly wouldn't be prudent to dismiss them without a serious examination.

    I guess the point is - the boys were investigated and were "given serious examination." Alas, that investigation has proven to have produced nothing other than they were using two stolen passports to gain illegal entry into a foreign nation. Which is extremely common.

    Sorry it never downed on me that perhaps you hadn't read the latest on the investigation.

    Yeah, I'm gonna have to go with ya on this one Splashone. It's more ignorant to dismiss the idea of terrorism out of the fear of offending the PC crowd. What's hilarious is assuming American Intelligence has all the answers!
