The loss of life in this crash today is terrible. The Iranian leadership should've grounded these planes but instead sent Iranian personnel up in an unsafe plane. American sanctions on military aircraft parts are essential and the fact that this plane crashed should be attributed to bad leadership in the Iranian Regime. Sanctions are in fact the least the West can do to encourage Iran to change its destabilizing policies in the region. This crash is very sad indeed. My sympathies go out to the families of the victims of this tragedy. This is an important moment to recognize the difference between the people of Iran and the Iranian regime. Please have respect for the non-combatants who died… Put the blame where it belongs, on the Iranian regime!

Is the C-130 all that high tech ?

I hear you Humint. Many of us have had no compunction towards Iran, and little thought for innocent Iranians killed by the plane crash. But many of us also realise that normal, sane Iranians abhor the dictatorship that seeks to rule their lives: we must destabilise the present Theocracy and seed another working democracy in the ME.
