Department of Unfortunate Coincidences

The impulse of an internal detonation is fairly distinctive, which is likely where they making conclusions from. But I have yet to see any debris with frag damage from a bomb. Given time, if it was a bomb, they will know for sure and have the hard data to back it up. One problem today, is the memememmememememem nowowowowowoownnwnnwnwnnow fucking generation (retard examples currently on display in so-called universities...) with the fucking retard mindset that officials and investigators solve the case before the commercial break. Reality, harshes their Choom-mellow. Oh well, we cant all be stoned and watch ESPN for world events....

Yeah, the CSI effect... confusing juries and annoying prosecutors for decades to come...

I would think any internal blast would have traces of explosive residue left on the debris, plus blast damage etc. I'm sure if there is anything, they'll find it soon enough. People again fail to realize what happens when a plane disintegrates in mid air... it means teeny tiny pieces scattered with bigger pieces all over a vast, vast area which more likely than not isn't a nice, level and clear bit of terrain one can park by the road to get to.

No professional worth his or her salt is going to speculate on causes until they have nailed it down as best as they can. Sure, it is likely, even probable the jet was brought down by a bomb... but until one can rule out things like metal fatigue - which has caused tail sections to drop off suddenly - a pro isn't going to jump the gun until they have the evidence to say one way or the other. Nor should they.

I wonder if they are using bomb-sniffing dogs to search around the debris field?
