I don't like the sound of this. I can imagine symbolic sinister use for this plane.

It'd be a shame if it were accidentally destroyed by an errant missile, wouldn't it.

Not to worry, I'm sure the French already equipped it with chaff, bomb doors, remote guidance, and a white flag. (You never know)

I think it needs to have catastrophic engine trouble over the Mediterranean.

747s are not cool enough. Let's send them about fifty B-52, 40 or so F-117s and 10 or so B-2s. Top that off with a gaggle of F-22s, F/A-18s, F-15s and F-16s to make a real Jumbo Souvenir!

Iran is set to buy the Air France Boeing 747 jumbo that flew
revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini back to Tehran
from exile in 1979, a government newspaper said Sunday...

home overnight...use the dependable conveyances designed and

Be a shame if the plane was "porked-up" a bit before delivery.

Souvenir my 4$$. They will probably outfit it first for hijacking practice, then, fill it with explosives or put a nuke on it and fly it to Israel.

It would hold a lot of WMD to fly into a target.

[Maulana Maudoodi] died while I was in Pakistan. But he didn't die in Pakistan: the news of his death came from Boston. At the end of his long and cantankerous life the maulana had gone against all his high principles. He had gone to a Boston hospital to look for health: he had at the very end entrusted himself to the skill and science of the civilization he had tried to shield his followers from. He had sought, as someone said to me (not all Pakistanis are fundamentalists), to reap where he had not wanted his people to sow. Of the maulana it might be said that he had gone to his well-deserved place in heaven by way of Boston; and that he went at least part of the way by Boeing.-- V.S. Naipaul, Among the Believers.

Yep. Those people have no conscience, and will simply use the plane as a, Trojan Horse.
To: Right Wing Assault
Heck...France will probably pack it full of nuclear equipment, for all we know.
To: nuconvert
Not to worry, they'll probably crash it themselves. Seems like they've been doing that a lot these days.
I worked in engineering firms with Armenians who had lived in Iran and got out when the Shah left.
They told me most of the technical class was foreigners like Armenians, and many of them left when the islamofacists took over.

And we can once again thank the French in their lust to assist the devil.

As I remember from a flight into Iran in 1978 or 9 the country already had a few 747's courtesy of the Shah. I doubt they gave them away.
