dwellings airfield and away from high ground. it doesn t seem to have happened. the radar trace continues going on along the projected flight path, which is incredibly perplexing, given as tom has alluded to, there was no radio transmission and now it seems no transponder emergency code, either, which is 7700. i hope we get the answer early tomorrow. as always, thank you to all. we ll get back to hardball in a moment with more politics the rest of the night. coming up, ted cruz running for president. democrats couldn t be well happier in a weird way, but republicans could cause trouble. plus the u.s. supreme court, that s wisconsin s voters i.d. law stands. does it give republican as edge in the polls? i think so.
turn it towards the nearest dwellings airfield and away from high ground. it doesn t seem to have happened. the radar trace continues going on along the projected flight path, which is incredibly perplexing given as tom has alluded to there was no radio transmission and now it seems no transponder emergency code either which is 7700. i hope we get the answer early tomorrow. as always, thank you to all. we ll get back to hardball in a moment with more politics the rest of the night. coming up ted cruz running for president. democrats couldn t be well happier in a weird way, but republicans could cause trouble. plus the u.s. supreme court, that s wisconsin s voters i.d. law stands. does it give republican as edge in the polls? i think so. the. wall street journal reports that israel has been spying on the nuclear talks with iran and has used that
the country beauts to the big jigsaw puzzle. there was a radar trace across the southern peninsula and down to the south. something big, the size of a 777. no proof it was that 777. there is no proof. but we ve got to take all the evidence in the context we re looking at and that, to me, along with the absence of sovereign territories in the north identifying it. mark, so many people so quickly chose the option of a highjacking that that could be the only explanation for something this unusual, specifically with those altitudes and that turn. why does the highjacking not seem so plausible? i think, before i address that, let me comment about this northern route, southern route question. sure. one fact people seem to agree
that they are looking in the right place? and remember it was a few days ago when the resources were foe u k kused in the south is, and have you confidence that the best we know puts them in the right place? well, you have to go with the evidence that you have got, and it is as slim as it might be, and the truth be told, jim, the pickings are very slim. but in kazakhstan, miramar and india and all of the countries in the northern corridor say they have no radar trace of the plane. and you have searched the immediate area, and it would be perverse to keep searching that northern corridor when you have evidence or potential evidence of what is in the southern corridor, and that is why, yes, you keep an open mind, and yes, you are prepared to go back if there is more further evidence in the northern corridor, but so far, there is no reason to deploy large numbers of assets north. incredible that 16 days later, and operating on the best guesses, and typical
just focusing all our eggs in this basket and hoping to find some sort of wreckage and through all the great work australians are doing. lets think outside the box here. we know the transponder trace was last found there. given that, where this location is will be on the outskirts of the boeing s endurance, about seven hours flying time. we know the aircraft isn t going to deviate from that. let me ask you about that. we only have 30 seconds. is it possible the aircraft makes a huge turn and doesn t go over these spots? wouldn t have the fuel. singapore, jakarta there. singapore has one of the most sophisticated ground air defense systems in the region. there must be some sort of primary radar trace as it crossed indonesian airspace. we can go back and say, come on, guys, loads of inconsistencies
