I'm unclear how something is "unfounded" if a link is provided? Please stop reverting this article. You are welcome, on the other hand, to *reword* the paragraph to a version you feel is more NPOV, but do not simply delete it.

  • It's not a NPOV issue, it's the fact that this is a simply unfounded statement. There is one dated article (from a Google cache, and presumably not online anymore -- calling its reliability into question) about possible involvement that relies on either speculation or a single piece of testimony from one intelligence report. It is clear that the cause of this crash was pilot error, the possibility of terrorism has been ruled out completely by NTSB reports. Furthermore, there is not a single mention of Mr Jdey's possible involvement on the page of Flight 587 itself. If a mention of Flight 587 is made on this page, it should be in the form of a conspiracy theory sort of thing -- not a weasel-word copout -- because that is what it is.

As I said, I agree it's a bit of a weasel-word right now, so by all means go ahead and reword it...just don't delete it en masse, since it's important for anybody who googles his name and ends up here, to know that he's tied to the flight. :) Sherurcij (talk) (Terrorist Wikiproject) 00:21, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
