Here are the three obvious explanations for what happened to MH370.

1. Aeroplane shot down in a botched military operation

A book, Flight MH370: The Mystery, claimed that the aeroplane was accidentally shot down by US-Thai strike fighters in a top-secret training drill in the South China Sea. London-based author Nigel Cawthorne said: "Those involved would have every reason to keep quiet about it."

And now they have planted debris to cover their tracks.

2. The CIA is involved

Former Malaysian prime minister Mahathir Mohamad has accused the CIA and Boeing of hiding evidence. In a blog post, he wrote that, if the aeroplane's GPS system failed, Boeing and the US intelligence agency would know why but were not revealing anything.

"Someone is hiding something," he wrote. "It is not fair that MAS [Malaysia Airlines] and Malaysia should take the blame."

Could Boeing and the CIA be planting fake debris to hide its involvement?

3. The aeroplane was taken to a remote US military base

The US government has been forced to deny claims that the aeroplane was forced to land at its military base Diego Garcia, a small coral atoll about 3500 kilometres west of Malaysia.

Diego Garcia has been at the centre of numerous other conspiracy theories, including claims that it is used by the CIA for "nefarious activities".

As you can see, this is a conspirasstastic list. Which is your favourite?

I'm going for the first one with some of the second one.

The US military obviously need to steal a 777.

Obviously.

Or the Ukraine crash was faked.

So they could then pretend that plane was MH370 in order to steal the real one for some evil purpose.

Have they bumped them orff or are they just hanging around Diego Garcia getting a suntan?

maybe the grieving family members are actors.

cleverness and metronomic efficiency in these things when all the evidence suggests that they are quite extraordinarily hamfisted and prone to the most boneheaded mistakes.

Here are the three obvious explanations for what happened to MH370.

He forgot the bit about Elvis having been spotted at Kuala Lumpur airport just before takeoff.

One is always more inclined to assume cock-up and cover-up rather than any grander conspiracy, so

I like the third one best.

they had to get another one to go with the other one they stole in Ukraine.

But what are they doing with all the little chaps on board?

How do we know they ever existed?

They've set them to work reading your emails.

I like how conspiracy theorists always credit governments and intelligence agencies with fiendish

It's all a plot to make Jeremy Corbyn look bad.
