in regards to this missing 777? I sure haven't - even now that it appears to have been ascertained that whatever happened was deliberate.

Not to suggest there is a muslim connection...BUT, if there is... you won't hear anything about this until the media has gone thru their pre-determined top 10 list of usual suspects...

1. Tea Party establishment
2. Corporate America
3. Tea Party establishment
3. Republican Held House of Representatives
4. Rush Limbaugh
5. Dr. Ben Carson
6. Tea Party establishment
7. White Supremicist (otherwise known as any male Republican)
8. Scott Walker
9. Tea Party establishment
10. Anyone other than a muslim

I saw one blog that said the pilot was Muslim. But that's unusual even though Malaysia is a majority Muslim country. Most of the pilots are Chinese and it would make sense that a Chinese pilot would be chosen to fly a plane full of Chinese Malaysians to China.

BTW, every time I read something from "The Prime Minister of Malaysia" I can't help think of Zoolander:

My guess? Westboro Baptist Church is behind this. Nothing but heathens on that plane anyway.

While it could certainly end up being the act of a Muslim, how is it in anyway helpful to speculate about that with zero evidence to support it?

It floors me. For once the media is reporting the news instead of creating it, and people are still upset...

He is upset? How do you know that? When people disagree with an observation somebody makes why do they have to be "upset"?

Seems like the names of the crew sounded muslim.

Capt. = Zaharie Ahmad Shah
1st Officer = Fariq Ab Hamid

This is confirmed by the media not giving out the names of the crew anymore.

j/k

The investigation should ead where it leads. The truth is the only thing that matters.

That being said, when an incident like this one happens, the possibility that it was an act of Islamic terrorism is always the 3,000 pound elephant in the room. Unlike the Tea Party folks, it's politically incorrect to speculate about Islamic terrorism. George Stephanopolous won't be on the internet trying to find a connection with Islamic extremism, the way he tried to tie the Tea Party to one of those shootings in Colorado.

Then what is the root of this thread? This "observation" apparently moved him enough to warrant an entire thread on the subject

If the pilots were named Jim Bob White and Billy Joe Andrews we would hear their names nonstop
