The Airbus A320 was flying inside Libya for Afriqiyah Airways when it was diverted.

There were two hijackers involved, who threatened to blow up the plane, according to initial reports.

Maltese Prime Minister Joseph Muscat said that security forces were standing by at the airport.

The deputy mayor for Lija in Malta, Madga Magri Naudi, told the BBC the hijackers had yet to make demands.

She said: "The request has not been made. This is a problem: we do not know what their requests are at the moment."


Talk about your throwback terrorism...the hijackers want to party like it is 1979.

Better that it's sitting on the ground than at the bottom of the Mediterranean.

I'm guessing the hijackers aren't Caucasian Christians.

I'm just surprised there's such a thing as a state-owned Libyan air fleet.

Maybe they just want to have the Airline change that stupid spelling...It's almost like they speak a different language.

Probably refugees looking for asylum in the EU.

Was about to say, this sounds an awful lot like the plot to "The Delta Force."

Now the theme music is in my head.

He wasn't joking about security forces "standing by"

Fox news just said they have agreed to let all hostages go.

They also said that the plane was headed from Libya to Tripoli so who knows what the truth is.

The news bimbo is apparently not aware that Tripoli is the capitol of Libya.

That isn't exactly shocking.

She probably also thinks that the Barbary Pirates is a play by Gilbert and Sullivan.

Funny you say that - I watched an episode of the Brady Bunch the other day. Alice was going to the airport to take a much needed vacation. She mentioned the flight's destination but then made a comment like "but you never know where you'll end up nowadays." It just shows that hijackings used to be pretty common at one point and I'm sure the joke was missed by most of today's younger viewers.

Cousin Emma sure whipped those Brady's into shape in Alice's absence!!!!
