I feel sorry for those families.

Weird indeed.

Other than the occasional "still looking and nothing new"

Out of mind..

The bad news is that the new area is deeper, with more complex seafloor terrain.

It is not where they claim and are reportedly looking, but rather in the north area of the arc, perhaps with a terrorist group like ISIS. Or it could be even more sinister than that. Regardless, they will never find it in the ocean, since it's not there.

Your evidence of this theory?

Or like so many other conspiracy theories, you haven't any?

None of those panned out.

You'll have an easier time finding that needle, than you would finding the airliner that crashed into deep water (and I mean DEEP) and by all indications stayed reasonably intact.

Glenn Miller's airplane vanished in the Atlantic, over the English Channel.

Airliners have vanished in decades past, and nothing was found.

Military aircraft have disappeared under similar circumstances.

we really don't know. Stranger things have happened than what the theories put forth by the poster.

Secretary Rumsfeld Press Conference at NATO Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium
Presenter: Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld

"The message is that there are no "knowns." There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns.

There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns."

Rummy Resurfaces, Calls for U.S. Propaganda Agency (Updated Again)
Wired.com 01.23.08

One of the many things I love about Donald Rumsfeld is that he’s totally unrepentant. Back in 2001, the Pentagon under his leadership created the controversial Office of Strategic Influence, which was closed down just a few months later after its existence became public. Rightly or wrongly, the Pentagon was accused of creating a propaganda office. Now, the former defense secretary has a bigger vision: he is advocating a "21st century agency for global communications."...

...What would this agency actually do? Hard to say, but Rumsfeld referred approvingly back to when the Army paid reporters to plant stories in the local press in Iraq. He still thinks that was a good idea (and blames the U.S. press for screwing it up).

for lack of anything resembling logical and factual support.

The one was about the area being searched changing again based on new radar information. The other one was about the mapping of the seafloor which is taking place and that in some places it is fairly shallow and then drops off over 4,000 feet. Depending on where the plane crashed it could be easily accessible or down so deep that we would need a robotic sub to go get the black box.

They said that just before going to break.
