On Saturday, Malaysian Airlines flight 370, flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 227 passengers, just vanished.\u00a0 As of right now, no one has found any debris.\u00a0 An oil slick that was slighted turned out to be ship fuel.\u00a0 The sea is shallow.\u00a0 But still, nothing.<\/p>\n

Terrorism is an obvious explanation.\u00a0 Four passengers were carrying stolen passports.\u00a0 They have been identified as Iranians, but sources say they were using the passports in an immigration scheme, not terrorism.\u00a0 But who knows?\u00a0 Some suspect a missile attack, possibly from North Korea.\u00a0 But satellite surveillance detected no explosion.\u00a0 Some are saying the plane was just stolen, to be used in a later 9-11 style attack.<\/p>\n

Surely the intense searching will find something soon.\u00a0 But right now, it\u2019s a mystery.<\/p>\n
