After noting that he has been getting questions via email, social media, and on the street, Lemon wondered if "something beyond our understanding" might have happened to the missing airliner.
"Especially today, on a day when we deal with the supernatural," Lemon said. "We go to church .... the supernatural power of God. People are saying to me, why aren't you talking about the possibility - and I'm just putting it out there - that something odd happened to this plane; something beyond our understanding?"
Decoded host Brad Meltzer responded saying, "People roll their eyes at conspiracy theories, but what conspiracy theories do is, they ask the hardest, most outrageous questions sometimes. But every once in awhile they're right."
"You can say, 'Oh, it crashed into the ocean,'" Meltzer elaborated. "But where are the parts? Where are the pieces? Why did it keep going for seven hours? Why do you have a guy on board who gives his watch and his ring to his wife and says 'Keep these for my boys in case something happens to me'? And that's not some stranger - he was a mechanical engineer. Something smells wrong."
"I'm not one of those believers that aliens came down or anything like that," Meltzer added. "But you do have to stop and wonder: how does a jetliner with two hundred people on it just disappear?"

Terrorism seems the only line open to them, as they are not going to like an explanation about something they can't control.
Israel just went on high alert, keeping mum about what they know.
And the shell game of "over here...no, no, over there...um, maybe, we're not sure exactly" is off the scale. Can't remember a missing plane story going this haywire.
All the comments and ideas here are possible. But as far as that paid propagandist Don Lemon... since when did thinking people give two shits what he has to say? Just his mentioning it makes me suspicious that they are throwing out a red herring or distracting in some way.
A common ploy that I have noticed from the MSM is to undermine a potential argument by using it themselves. If that makes sense.
The first thing that will happen with those who distrust the media and might possibly be thinking the same thing, is to immediately question the veracity of the idea.
It could be likened to a child doing the opposite of what his or her parents tell them simply because they have to prove them wrong.
It reminds me of a South Park episode where the kids become obsessed with a Japanese fad called "Chimpokomon". In this episode the Japanese gov't is actually brainwashing the children to become fighters against western civilization.
The parents finally figure out that if they begin to follow the fad as well then the children won't want anything to do with it. The ploy works in the end and all is good in the land of South Park once again.
That is what I see going on here. As each day goes by and absolutely no hard evidence comes to light about what actually happened to this ill fated flight, the supernatural or paranormal becomes more and more plausible.
I have commented on other articles that, when all is said and done, the reality of this situation is going to alter our perceptions of common reality. I still feel that way and I will not discredit my own feelings about this because the MSM is starting to sing the same tune.
This reporter's use of the term "conspiracy theory", although not really suited to discussions of the supernatural, cements this idea for me. Once that term is used, fully half of the population immediately discredits whatever idea or concept that it was associated with.
These are interesting times that we are living in, and I have a feeling that things will become even more interesting in the near future.
That does make sense. Kind of like reverse, reverse psychology... fight the resistance type of thing. Have to laugh at the "Chimpokomon", great example. I am totally open minded to paranormal possibilities or some form of corruption. You are right, it is a very strange world and getting stranger by the minute.
To me, the cell phone, the jet aircraft, non-dairy creamer and central air conditioning are the direct actions of a mysterious and all-seeing, all-knowing God in our puny and otherwise totally worthless lives.
I worship these and other supernatural products constantly.
Without them, I would die.
I desire, I purchase and I obey.

The plane was taken to Diego Garcia and the passengers executed; using Occam's razor it's the only logical solution.
The motives are another story and probably various.
