She and her partner were CAPTURED by the Japanese and held PRISONERS on a small Philippine island for about seven years and then BEHEADED.

YES, that's right Saipan. I COULDN'T REMEMBER the name of the island. Did you watch the SAME program that EXPLAINED this? They found her grave site (or the area where it is OR SHOULD be). The show made PERFECT SENSE to me and I BELIEVE they've SOLVED her MYSTERY.

The show made PERFECT SENSE to me and I BELIEVE they've SOLVED her MYSTERY. No, I haven't had TV since the last days of 2006, but I think the Japanese got her. It wasn't her that they wanted but that Lockheed Electra she was flying. I think they messed with her compass and had her flying northeast instead of southeast. You probably saw the movie "Midway" in which they made a big deal over breaking the Japanese code at the last minute. I tend to think the US had the Japanese code years before the war began, and the US knew that Japan had grabbed Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan. And if so the US certainly knew that the attack on Pearl Harbor was coming and let it happen anyway.

No, it wasn't Midway. It was a recent documentary.

I find the whole thing to be rather strange... There are several different theories that people have proposed... and all with the idea, that each of those ideas are unique and unrelated... 1.) They ran out of fuel (" Just Like She Said On The Radio") and crashed into the sea near Howland Island... No. They did not "Run Out Of Fuel". They were running "LOW"... 2.) They flew SouthEast for several hours to Gardner Island (Nikumaroro) and landed on the reef, and for several days she transmitted radio distress calls... Radio Distress Calls were received and were triangulated to that area! 3A.) They flew towards the West, and the crashed into the sea... The Japanese picked her up, and then took her to a Japanese Prison, where she eventually died or was executed... Many witnesses claimed to have seen a FEMALE PILOT there and some saw her killed... 3B.) On Saipan, a soldier, " Bob Wallack, claims he found a bag filled with documents that were owned by Amelia, including her passport. He turned the documents over to his commanding officer, and the documents, like Amelia, were never seen again." Fake Passports? Why? 4.) " Amelia and Fred veered off course by 2,000 miles and landed on the island of Saipan where they were captured and executed by the Japanese Navy. Witnesses place Amelia's plane in the custody of military officials in the area and the execution of two American pliots by the Japanese. One US Army soldier, Thomas Devine, claims to have seen Amelia's plane on Saipan during World War II, just seven years after she had disappeared. He overheard two soldiers confirm that the plane was Amelia's. An official reprimanded these soldiers for talking about the plane. Later, he saw the plane flying overhead, so he wrote down the identification numbers. The numbers matched those that were on Amelia's plane. He claimed the Army destroyed her plane later that night by setting it on fire." He correctly wrote down the number of Amelia's plane: NR16020... (Coincidence?) Sources: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amelia_Earhartunsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Amelia_EarhartSo if that wasn't, Example: "Amelia's plane flying around" Saipan... Then Who's was it?This is what I find so strange about the mystery... "Someone" must have been transmitting distress calls... As far as I know, there were not two female pilots missing at that time... and as far as I know, there were not two identical planes with the same markings... So, if it wasn't Amelia, then who was it? I can not believe that SO many people, "imagined" seeing "Amelia" all over the region... So what the fuck was going on? Was she triplets? Could it all be connected? Could it have been possible that Amelia did fly down to Gardner Island (Nikumaroro)... Sent out distress calls... AND THAT THE JAPANESE RESCUED HER AND SALVAGED HER PLANE FROM GARDNER ISLAND (NIKUMARORO)... and took her and her plane to Saipan... and so on and so on? Sadly, We may never know...

Oh... And FYI... " On July 9, 2017, the History Channel documentary, "Amelia Earhart: Lost Evidence," proposed that it was not Nikumaroro that Amelia landed on but an atoll in the Marshall Islands northeast of Howland Island....
Their research was based on figures "resembling" Earhart and Noonan on a pier on Jaluit island..." Shortly after the documentary aired, the photograph was discovered in a book that was published in 1935, in which the photo would have had to have been taken at least two full years before Amelia disappeared... And that's not all, that was wrong, with that "Documentary": tighar.org/Projects/Earhart/Archives/Research/Bulletins/84_JaluitPhotoFINAL/84_JaluitPhotoFINAL.html

I think the running out of fuel and crashing into the sea is most likely. I'm always distrustful of eyewitness reports, as they've been shown to be unreliable in various cases over the years. There may well have been a woman spy captured by the Japanese and executed. That doesn't necessarily mean it was Earhart. A quick and quiet death is part of the danger of being a spy.

Perished into the water. I've never believed a lick of anyone's story to come after her disappearance was a worldwide headline.
