Will we ever know (CCP and all)?

Non tin foil: They either stalled, or lost and engine and stalled, and botched it.

Tin foil: The CCP wants to make the US and the 737 look bad again.

Why do I have the feeling this may be a suicide?

sorry to nitpick, but I have a difficult time thinking of such an act was suicide when there were 131 other people on the aircraft that were killed.

She's no doubt thinking of these cases of pilot suicide:

Suicide/homicide.  Sheesh.  I thought it went without saying.

ok, then I guess the guy wearing a vest made of C4 is merely commiting suicide.

It’s a suicide bomber, yes.  If that’s not the new politically correct term then enlighten me.  If it was deliberate then it was either a terrorist act or a mentally deranged individual that selfishly took a bunch of other people with him.  Either way, it was evil and deplorable and I hope he’s burning in hell.  There, now are you happy with my acknowledgement of it?  I didn’t realize that it was unacceptable for me not to emotionally state the obvious.
