Wow now that is a conspiracy theory. So the Chinese gov't is secretly negotiating while keeping the general public and/or the other gov'ts that have passengers on board in the dark. So when they are successful they will tell us the whole story...and that won't turn the world against the Chinese?

I get they tried to cover up just about everything including SARS, but I think that is a stretch. I just can't believe there is a secret negotiation happening. I just think the collective WTF from the world would cause a lot a chaos, and anger towards the Chinese for pulling that stunt.

I won't say you are wrong, as who knows at this point, but I think there is way more chance something went wrong in the hijack and it crashed in the ocean, than a secret negotiation and the world being strung along.

EDIT: Here is an article I read just after I posted this: http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/mis...-landed-n54896
