Let's pray and hope for their safety -
"but great to watch.. great speaker"
This is what majority of voters craved for.
Vote for Donald. Throw the old hag to the dusbin :)
.
Saw Donald's speech to the NRA last night .. He is an embarrassment , but great to watch.. great speaker - no substance - no depth to ideas......
All in all "A Real politician" :O)
Lucky Luciano: It's okay you are a Donald supporter but so far there has been nothing to prove it was a terrorist attack or an explosion inside the plane. Donald is reputed to go back on this words as you can see from the report in the link provided.
Donald proved to correct in predictions.
Accha, you are too late my pal .........................
WT: Just like you, Donald Trump was also too quick to react to missing EgyptAir plane when he tweeted "Looks like another terrorist attack,". Are you two related in any way?

MM: I had provided a link from the latest news I had at the time of my posting. You could have checked yourself before posting your comments. As I stated above, I write facts as they come appear. I write sense.
Are you sleeping yet Accha , search continues ? ..................
WT: Good Morning.
After over 24 hours the situation still remains unclear about the disappearance of the airplane.
The search still continues. I write facts. I write sense.

Guys, I don't give a s... for what others think. Cool down. Let accha continue to preach his version. I have no problem with that.
Brit: I firmly believe it was just too quick an assumption to post that the cause of the crash was due to an explosion when even the authorities were searching for the wreckage and trying to pinpoint the cause of the disappearance of the plane from the radar. That was what my objection was all about. Even after so many hours of the tragic incident the word "likelihood" was being used. One just should not jump to conclusions and give an authoritative comment when facts are still foggy.
acchabaccha: I usually support you, but in this case I think perhaps you're being a little obtuse.
Given the recent goings on in Egypt, including the last downing of a Metrojet Flight 9268 over Sinai and the way the contact with the aircraft was lost strongly indicated terrorism and something which more than likely took out the aircraft in a very short timespan.
Therefore , WT's suggestion was logical - wasn't it ?
Even Alexander Bortnikov has used the words "In all likelihood" which according to my little understanding of the English language means there still exists a possibility of there being some other causes. But people here were quick to jump and predict it was an explosion even while the authorities were searching for tell-tale signs.
You are lucky it has turned out the way you had predicted. However, one is definitely stupid to make a prediction when nobody in the world knew the cause of the crash not even the Egyptian authorities. Possibly some people are soothsayers or have a crystal ball on their table which they gaze upon to give their predictions.
Yep... Terrorism the most likely outcome - whch means most probably a bomb .. which menas an explosion and most likely fire in the sky ...
And this guy is also an idiot, accha: The head of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has said that the EgyptAir crash was "in all likelihood" a terrorist act, according to the privately-owned Interfax news agency.
"In all likelihood, this is a terrorist act, as a result of which 66 citizens of various states have been killed," Alexander Bortnikov was quoted as saying.
Egyptian minister says terrorism most likely cause of EgyptAir crash. - This one is for you accha. Now go ahead and tell the guy the same thing you told me before.
Mods need to fix the bugs.. Molten does a double post by mistake and the 'likes' also get copied - all very strange ;)
MM: I give up .. I don't know how I'm encouraging Muad - Also, I don't even see where he has posted anything on this thread
Exactly Brit, Muad is doing a spoil sport, but you encourage him to get more rotten ............
MM: Where have I suggested that anyone should clone my comments or support me ?
You are free to voice your opinions - that's what QL is for
However it is sometimes nice to hve some rationality to the thoughts
Brit, So you want us to be your clone ? ............... Spare some QLers to have their own views ..............
In the past hour, EgyptAir said on its Twitter account that a distress signal had been received by Egypt's military from flight MS804 (though it is unclear whether they meant an automated signal or a manual one).
Now, Egypt's military, in a statement, says no such signal was received.
If there was no problem visible for the pilot what probably could it have been other than a surprise?
You just tell somebody there was a fire , he will respond ......'' oh ya ...... I saw the light smoke in that side ....... at about hr / mins ....'' ....
A common human behaviour ....... because nobody would want to be the one who does not know what is happening around ........
And stupid comments - A time-pass exercise for others..
Its a strange world indeed
Hallucination ........... A time-pass exercise for some ..........
You are ofcourse right as usual MM... A person on a ship should not look upwards or towards the horizon and note anything unusual .. He should just look at the waves ...
That type of reporting often follows after an incident ........ what does that mean , it is not his duty to see in the sky being at the ship we need to concentrate at the see surface ...... ......... how could one be able to see the exact happening ........ ?
UK paper - "A captain on board a merchant ship in the Mediterranean reported seeing a 'flame in the sky'."
At least I don't make wild guesses from the chair of my office that it "exploded." Is your theory that it "exploded" more reliable than the news from a news channel?
It's your problem if you believe in News Channels, accha. Good luck.
WT: As per latest information that I have from a news channel, Egyptian authorities fear the plane ditched into the sea. Let's wait for more updates. Your guess that it "exploded" was just too premature and simply reflected how you look even at such tragic incidents.
Mods, I say Accha's mind is not poisoned ..........
Will you still remove my comment ?
Mods, WT has attacked Accha ........
Every comment is reported except the one posted by MM.
acchabaccha: at present , Its all conjecture .. So , all theories are possible
brit, there are no "plain fields" in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea!
I guess your mind is poisoned, accha.
If a plane disappears from radar, accha, it must have disintegrated. That's not religion, that's physics.
Let us wait for some more information before passing judgments and pray for the safety of passengers and crew.
WT: Your "guess" is as good as the state of your mind and thinking. What makes you guess it "exploded?" I can see something cultivating in your mind and you reading yourself for your next "explosion."
How about suicide by the Captain?
A technical fault may be reason , maintenance issue .........
WT: It could have landed on a plain field or ditched in the sea
If the airplane went missing from the radar it doesn't exist anymore. Guess, it exploded.
