TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranian state TV, citing a military statement, says the country ‘unintentionally

Claimed it was “human error.” Nice try, but you’re hardly human.
In the case of the USS Vincennes the aircraft was warned numerous times to change course. All warnings were disregarded.
The Ukrainian aircraft was shot down minutes after leaving the Tehran airport. I doubt any warning was given, and even less time for the aircraft to react if any warning was issued.
There were numerous commercial aircraft taking off from Tehran.
Obama bought the missile that shot it down.
Either they have grossly incompetent idiots in their control rooms or they meant to shoot it down for some other reason.
I have to admit to a certain curiosity. As civilians we don’t really get to see exactly how these missile systems work.
Are they completely self guided and unstoppable once launched or was there an abort option that could have been transmitted?
Iran is busted! They tried a cover-up, couldn’t pull it off.
This reminds me of the Chernobyl disaster: Gorbachov and his high level goons wanted to cover the whole thing up........until “The Americans” called the Commies, told them we were seeing very disturbing images coming from our satellites. BUSTED!!!! Game over, LMAO.
I now have the official corrected report after processing through the media translator: “The horrible unnecessary airliner crash is all Donald Trump’s fault”.
I believe it was two missiles on the video. Probably set to the wrong automatic fire mode or something along those lines.
Air Epstein.
I was going to make a joke here, so into the net I popped “Oops, and added ‘Muslim’ hoping for a picture to be funny, but that is not what came up.
Put it in and see what comes up, it’s pretty surprising.
It wasn’t that.
It was locked and fired by somebody.
Yup which is further proof this all kabuki theatre. Within 30 minutes of the strike. FAA anounced a restriction of airspace in that region. That is what would be expected unless you want an airplane to be “accidently” shot down.
Friday night news drop - right out the Democrat playbook. Sounds like they’ll still returning Kerry’s phone calls (and I have NO CLUE as to why, at this point).
CNN viewers must be upset right now after a few days of claiming Trumps White House LIED about Iran shooting down the plane.......oh wait, their viewers will never hear the truth ... Scary that they vote
Eighteen years ago POTUS George W. Bush named Iran, Iraq, and North Korea as the “axis of evil”.
Why should we expect better behavior?
The leopard still has his stripes.
There were several planes that took off even before this one. But it seems this one flew in a different path than the others.
AP will update it.
“” “” In the case of the USS Vincennes the aircraft was warned numerous times to change course. All warnings were disregarded.”” “”
Do you really believe it?
and to think they want nukes.
We did pay compensation to the families of the victims of our mistake. Perhaps the mullahs can dip into some of their Obamastash funds and do the same.
I do.
