The thing about that picture is IF they were prisoners why are they just standing and sitting around like tourists? It does make a great story and may be true though. Even the plane cant be made out with certainty. And why is it every time some photo like this shows up it is always fuzzy?

Certainly interesting. The Noonan picture is very convincing. The lack of guards could be because the decision to arrest her had not been made yet.
Relations with Japan did get sticky by 1940, but what were they in 1937?

She's not dead. She's on an island with Elvis, John Kennedy, and DB Cooper.
In a rather stunning turn of events, the much-heralded 'lost Amelia Earhart' photo which made headlines last week has been debunked in a devastating fashion.

Considering Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan were both born prior to 1900 it is safe to say they are both dead as of 2017.
I spoke too soon; CNN is reporting possible Russian collusion with The Trump Organization in the disappearance of Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan, stay tuned. More to come at 11:00.

Dammit ! I knew those Shaky Russki's had a Top Secret Base on Howland Island !! If my Cultural Hero,none other than the Esteemed Mr. Slim Pickens,was still Alive today,he'd be all over this and set the record straight !
Between his Academy Award Winning work in "Dr. Strangelove"(Air Force Major Kong),"Blazing Saddles"(Taggart) and of course,"1941"(Hollis P. Wood aka Hourrywood),I know that he'd of went right to bat in order to clean up all this Mularkey regarding Amelia,Fred and the entire Imperial Japanese Navy !!
Alas,footnote : Slim didn't Yank an Oscar Home for any of those,but as Good and Genuine as he was,I doubt he really gave two squirts regarding Hollyweird's Award Schemes...... That 'Ol Boy just did it right,just like Amelia and Fred !!
Sorry,I just couldn't help myself......
