Someone has got to be blamed for the mysterious disappearance of the flight MH370. After days of scouring land and water, the whereabouts of the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner remained to be unknown. This was despite a multinational search of the aircraft with more than 40 ships and 39 aircrafts in full search operations.
Meanwhile, current developments of the incident started to surface after Malaysia Prime Minister Najib Razak said that “someone” on the plane deliberately turned off its transponders, blocking messages sent to air traffic authorities. The flight MH370 was carrying 239 people bound for Beijing after it disappeared last Saturday, March 8.
With the current age of modernized satellite communications and computerized flight decks, who would have thought that a plane as big as the Boeing 777 could simply go missing in thin air? Now, the angry families of those on board the missing aircraft still search for answers on who are to blame for the lapses in aviation security.
In a report from Aljezeera.com, it was stated that the pilot of flight MH370, Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah was a political fanatic and a supporter of Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim. As hijacking and pilot suicide were among the long list of possibilities to what might have triggered the disappearance of the airplane, could it be possible that the pilot took 238 souls with him on his plot of political protest? Or did the Malaysia Airlines failed to conduct regular psychological screenings on their crew?
Whatever the aftermath of the missing flight MH370, somebody is going to get blamed.
