And here come the conspiracy theories. The only thing I'm surprised about is that it took this long.

1. By far the most interesting one I've herd so far, is that CNN is behind the false flag operation . The evidence seems to be that correspondent Richard Quest is both Jewish, and gay. And he claims to know the flight crew .

2. It was blown up by one or both of the passengers who were flying on stolen passports. Why? We don't know.

3. The plane was hijacked by terrorists, and blown out of the sky by the U.S., or China, or Malaysia, or Vietnam, or Thailand... before it could be used in a terrorist attack.

4. It was hijacked by terrorists, and is now on the ground, hidden in an abandoned hangar somewhere in Vietnam.

5. Some family members have tried calling the cell phones of the missing passengers, and report they can hear the phones ringing but no one answers .

6. The plane was intercepted by aliens, through a wormhole in space-time.

What's your favorite? Any other ideas? I'm leaning towards #2, but I'm at a loss as to why. And no one seems to have claimed any responsibility for it yet. Most terrorists want to advertise what they do.
