Many of the Flight 370 families are absolutely convinced their loved ones are alive

somewhere, under the control of kidnappers who hijacked the plane. No matter what the search off Australia yields, those poor souls will experience torment. If the debris is proved to be part of the plane, it's over and denial becomes impossible. If the debris cannot be located or is not part of the plane their torment will continue with no closure ( I do not believe the passengers are hostages, but that's just me) unless and until the plane parts are located. This is just so tragic.

1. That really is sad. Hopefully it will not be much longer.

[get the red out]

2. It is just an awful situation

To go on this long with no definitive answer. I can see how people would manufacture hope in this situation.

3. I had a long drive yesterday and listened to Hannity part

of the time (no progressive radio around). Anyway--he had a retired army person on they talked endlessly about how--Pakistan has the plane--it landed safely there and now in a hanger according to the military person. He was going to be Hannity's TV show last evening--which I did not watch. Hannity pretty much went along with this gig

4. That is disgraceful! Hannity is total scum!

5. As does the rest of us, but for not so obvious reasons

This tragedy is fueling "our" conspiracy or mysticism sport or porn. People are so reluctant to give up their conspiracy that I question their motivation: are they really concerned about the families, or are they more concerned about their sick pleasure?

6. Sounds Like The Families Are Hostages As Well......nt
