If you read the proper news, ie avherald, you will read that two fisher boats were 5nm from the crash site. They heard two explosions, saw the parts falling down, went there, picked up the debris. One stayed there, in shallow water, easy to check the cause of the explisions, the other went 2hrs to report to police. A bomb is very unlikely, lots of better explanations. We'll see.

I expect you're overstating how unlikely it is: there are not that many better explanations for a plane suddenly falling out of the sky.

For a moment there I was fairly confused, trying to figure out how the fishing boats could possibly have been mere nanometers from the crash site.

Now that you wrote "bomb", my brain just chimed with the info that the Indonesian government banned an extremist Islamist group a week or 2 ago...

> A bomb is very unlikely

Why?
