A "speculator" - or "sold the dummy" ?

In Rugby, a "true speculator" was a field goal scored by a player kicking a goal from a ball that was in play, but on the ground.
Being "sold the dummy" can refer to a tactic executed against the opposition, in "shaping" to either "kick or pass", and then not doing so, or, if you are "going to be creamed", passing the ball to a team member, so that it is "he who gets creamed", not you !

Now, in the case of MH-370 and the LIDO Radar, we have a situation where any of the three possibilities above "may be in play".

First - The Lido Radar returns may have been actual returns, (of the aircraft going via Medan) ie, on the table, in play - but MY simply rotated them (kicked them) into the (moved) Malacca Strait goalposts.

Second - As above, but recognising that they were "going to get creamed", so:-

Third - Pass it off - to the ATSB / DSTG - to do their Bayesian Search - so that ultimately  "they get creamed" - which they have - in spades !

It all comes back to one thing.

The Malaysians know full well what happened that night - and why - and have been, from day one, and remain, desperate to ensure that no one ever finds out the truth.
