VERY IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

What this means is that the IRGC deliberately designed their command structure more along the lines of a terrorist organization, with low level loose cannons in charge of massive lethal systems. This is an evil but very effective means of making your enemies walk on eggshells, because they have to fear not just rational actions but also irrational ones.

Terrorist command structures are more effective at cowering their opponents, but also more likely to kill innocents, because trigger happy mistakes are not a flaw, they are a design feature.

This means that the IRGC is responsible for the deaths of the people on the plane in a much deeper way than just making a mistake.

Contrary to the DNC media, the IRGC is not the Iranian army. It is a terrorist organization that does not operate by normal military rules.

It’s believed they shot down one of their own F-14’s 8 years ago over Bushehr.

I said last week that I thought it was a young AA crew under stress and got way too twitchy. It’s looking more like it was directly ordered, which is worse.

Very well said. Life is cheap to them.

I wonder it it’s true there were some Nuclear Physicists on board - if so, President trump has even more leverage if it can be verified...and the Dems look even worse.

Talk about unintended consequences.

President Trump shows restraint and Iran did more damage to themselves internally than we could have.

It's almost as if President Trump knows what he is doing.....

Amir Ali Hajizadeh (Persian: امیرعلی حاجی‌زاده‎) is commander of Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps since October 2009.

During Eghtedar-e Velayat war game, on 8 March 2016, Hajizadeh said: "the reason we designed our missiles with a range of 2,000 km is to be able to hit our enemies from a safe distance."

On January 11, 2020 with Iran's admission of mistakenly shooting down Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 by his forces, General Hajizadeh reportedly accepted personal responsibility, and wished death upon himself when he learned that his forces had been responsible for the disaster.

May allah grant his wish soon.

More importantly the Aerospace Force commands the Navy, the Quds Force, and the Basij. The late general, H. S. commanded the Qods Force and the Basji - the Qods are believe to have been manning the AA battery while the Basji are currently busy suppressing, killing and arresting the protestors.

Was the shooting down of that plane leaving Tehran the capital of Iran filled with people leaving it ordered ? It would appear many Iranians feel that it was, and no accident.
According to the Koran Moslem clergy can and do authorize followers execute anyone who refuses to become moslem which includes ones fleeing areas they control .

THAT WAR IS THIS:
MSM and reporting news agencies reporting knowingly avoid referencing the religious aspect of these conflicts. Portraying the conflicts going on between entities in the area as territorial acquisition when they are actually sectarian. Based on enforcing absolute conformity to a theocracy. That orders followers to adhere to Koranic laws who’s radical theological assertions have gone unquestioned or unchallenged by leading monotheistic religious leaders like Pope Francis. Followers obeying what they claim are Our Creator’s orders which has them authorized by God to execute unbelievers including those fleeing the area they control.
