This.
I cannot imagine someone going through the whole planning process to take down an aircraft and then risk the entire operation on getting caught with fake passports.
Large numbers of illegal workers, as well as criminal syndicates, are known to move between Malaysia and neighboring countries such as Thailand and others in SE Asia. And as we know, the two suspect passports were stolen in Thailand.
I would
speculate that it's just a coincidence. And the media is just jumping on it, and throwing sensationalism spins all over it, cause that crap sells.
I'll take "Incapacitated Flight Crew due to Rapid Decompression from a Fuselage Failure" for 1000 please, Alex
