Lemma 3 - MH370 Solution: Updated Edition with 2016 Second Anniverary Introduction - Africa Gambit Theory Stronger Than Ever by John T. Cullen (Clocktower Books) (1 Review)    Price verified 34 minutes ago

Lemma 3--originally proposed in 2014 to solve the mysterious vanishing of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370--remains stronger than ever as pieces of wing debris wash up east of Africa--precisely in line with the author's predictions in the original June 2014 edition of this book--except we now know the hijackers' mission failed. We need to study Lemma 3 to ensure no such hijack mission ever succeeds because its aim was to drop the weaponized plane as a dirty and destructive bomb on a major target in Europe, Israel, or the Mediterranean Sea. This book is a second anniversary update on the theory advanced by John T. Cullen after the aircraft's baffling and as yet unsolved vanishing on 8 March 2014 (two years ago). This edition contains a new Introduction, plus the full text of the June 2014 first edition. It is vitally important to keep all options on the table--which authorities have not done, choosing to continue a singular and so far ineffectual search off the shore of western Australia--to prevent a hair-raising plan like Lemma 3 from ever succeeding. Because--guaranteed--the people who likely hijacked MH370 will try again. The author examined all the known data points of March 2014 and formulated a theory that has stood the test of time--a logical construct that responsibly keeps all options on the table. These fall into three major logical legs or lemmas (sub-theorems): --Lemma 1: natural disaster (no human cause). Includes mechanical failure. Less likely for various reasons, including: the plane flew on for at least six hours without any automated or human distress signal. --Lemma 2: impulsive, destructive human act without a longer-term plan (e.g., pilot, crew, or passenger suicide). Less likely for various reasons. Expected outcome would have been instant descent and crash, as in the pilot suicide on Germanwings Flight 9525 in the Alps on 24 March 2015, and similar instances. --Lemma 3: hijack for a sinister purpose, which is the author's ...
