seriously, if it was a terrorist... why over the middle of the ocean? Why not over Rio or Paris? The whole point of a terrorist is to inspire terror. If it happens over the middle of the ocean where no one will know why or if it happened, their "cause" will never be known. Doesn't fulfill their mission. ...just a thought.

Ever heard of "Operation Bojinka?"
 
Every terrorist act has the perpetrating group plus another two or three groups claiming responsibility because that is the whole purpose to let people know you did it, but not a peep in ten days! the search for answers continues
 
At ease gentlemen, story has been rebuffed by French authorities. The names in question are very common (there are literally million of people called Mohammed or Ali) and that`s all there is to it.

p.s. as far as we know, no terrorist organizations have taken credit for it which would happen almost immediately as they want everyone to know it was them... they want the media attention.
Remeber Richard Reid that retard couldn't even light a match, and it was over the ocean

Not true on French TV this is a big story right now.
 
Ever heard of "Operation Bojinka?"

"Loud Bang"- A plot to use commercial airliners as weapons, specifically to blow up the CIA headquarters and another plot to put bombs on U.S. airliners. This was briefed to President Clinton in 1996.

Clinton of course took a lawyers approach towards this rather than a approach for our national security....
 
Take the easy route, blame it on BUSH

Good point. Bush did have them up against the ropes in Afganistan. Ready to deliver the final blow, Bush thought it was better to divert attention, money, and the military to Iraq and take out Saddams MASSIVE nuclear program and his ties to Al-Queada then to finish the job in Afganistan...Yeah Bush!!
 
Link?

Peter Allen, in Paris
Two passengers with names linked to Islamic terrorism were on the Air France flight which crashed with the loss of 228 lives, it has emerged.




Debris from Air France flight AF 447 has been recovered from the Atlantic


French secret servicemen established the connection while working through the list of those who boarded the doomed Airbus in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on May 31.
Flight AF 447 crashed in the mid-Atlantic en route to Paris during a violent storm.
While it is certain there were computer malfunctions, terrorism has not been ruled out.





Soon after news of the fatal crash broke, agents working for the DGSE (Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure), the French equivalent of MI6, were dispatched to Brazil.
It was there that they established that two names on the passenger list are also on highly-classified documents listing the names of radical Muslims considered a threat to the French Republic.
A source working for the French security services told Paris weekly L'Express that the link was "highly significant".
Agents are now trying to establish dates of birth for the two dead passengers, and family connections.
There is a possibility the name similarities are simply a "macabre coincidence", the source added, but the revelation is still being "taken very seriously".
France has received numerous threats from Islamic terrorist groups in recent months, especially since French troops were sent to fight in Afghanistan.
Security chiefs have been particularly worried about airborne suicide attacks similar to the ones on the US on September 11, 2001.
