If what is being said is in fact proven to be the case then what happened yesterday was that 150 people including teenagers and babies were murdered. It wasn't an accident. It wasn't a failure of equipment. I don't know how you begin to live with that loss or with the cause of it. I'm just stunned tbh.

fcukfifa I'm so sorry.

northernlurker this is what I have been trying to get my head round all day

In most plane crashes the passengers would have been clueless about their fate but in this one it seems likely the passengers may have been aware. It's awful.

It certainly seems today as if this is what actually happened. So sad for a those involved. How would you ever get over that. All those children, babies, mothers, husbands. Makes me so upset and angry.

I read about the girl choking in my local paper today fcukfifa. Awful awful thing to happen. Her poor husband.

So tragic.
Sorry fcukfifa

The reports this morning seem to have backed off a little using words like suspected, apparently, etc. That seems more appropriate for this stage of the investigation. I think there is a good chance the prosecutors are correct but without the flight data recorder there is no way they can be certain of some of the statements that were being made yesterday.

Thank you for your insights on this thread, prh47bridge.
