If I were Iran, I wouldn't trust anyone affiliated with the USA either, given how the OPCW falsified it's own report.

I would probably hand it over to a group consisting of Ukraine, China, Russia, and Boeing. Yanno, let them guard each other.

Video from a moving car shot while driving towards Tehran.

The plane can be seen burning most of the way down. According to SOME people, if the plane had been hit by a missile it wouldn't have been burning, it would have exploded in midair.

Anyway, I think the video is interesting because it also gives us an uncensored albeit limited view of Iran. It's not what I imagined. And the passenger sounds just like my dentist!

CC: I wouldn't let an Iranian dentist near my teeth.

Also...

There are 2 videos of the incident as it happened that I've seen so far, and I always wonder when ones like those come out: who the hell is pointing their phone at the empty night sky and filming it and getting lucky enough to catch an event?? I don't think you could react fast enough in the one that shows the final flame out. If you see the first flash and then get your phone out and navigate to video it would be over - it happened too fast.

2- In early hours after the missile attack [on US’ Ain al-Assad base in Iraq], the military flights of the US’ terrorist forces had increased around the country. The Iranian defence units received news of witnessing flying targets moving towards Iran’s strategic centres, and then several targets were observed in some [Iranian] radars, which incited further sensitivity at the Air Defence units.

3- Under such sensitive and critical circumstances, the Ukrainian airline’s Flight PS752 took off from Imam Khomeini Airport, and when turning around, it approached a sensitive military site of the IRGC, taking the shape and altitude of a hostile target.

In such conditions, due to human error and in an unintentional move, the airplane was hit [by the Air Defence], which caused the martyrdom of a number of our compatriots and the deaths of several foreign nationals.

4- The General Staff of the Armed Forces offers condolences and expresses sympathy with the bereaved families of the Iranian and foreign victims, and apologizes for the human error. It also gives full assurances that it will make major revision in the operational procedures of its armed forces in order to make impossible the recurrence of such errors. It will also immediately hand over the culprits to the Judicial Organization of the Armed Forces for prosecution.

Senior IRGC commander accepts responsibility for downing Ukrainian jet, says it was mistaken for missile

...According to an early assessment, the Ukrainian plane was erroneously identified as an incoming cruise missile, which resulted in the tragedy. Air-defense units received a warning that cruise missiles had been fired at the country and stayed on high alert at the time of the incident, Hajizadeh stated.

The commander of the anti-aircraft unit had sought confirmation for the launch from his superiors, but experienced communication problems and had to make the decision –which turned out to be wrong– on his own. The officer only had 10 seconds to make the decision, Hajizadeh added.

I've had three middle eastern docs and today I have zero. They've all been assholes that won't shake your hand or look you in the eye and are rude and about ten years behind on knowledge.

NO. THANKS.

I have heard folk harping on Canadian PM, but I have not been joining those folk.
After the identities were revealed of the Canadians aboard, I saw that they were mostly people from Iran, born there, or their spouses, and a couple on Honeymoon. These are folk who understood they were flying into a country which regularly shoots down aircraft, a country run by crazy insane terrorists, a nation with little or no morals or ethics. And they all chose to ride a plane into/out of that airspace. Live by the sword, die by the sword. Are these folk nominees for the Darwin Awards? Maybe not. But if you stand in the path of a falling redwood, maybe nobody should be surprised you get squashed.


Although waiting for the facts can be admirable, I was beginning to fear Sigs had switched from Russian PR to Iranian/Iraqi PR Agent.

The world knew that the 737 had gotten missile target locked before the missiles had been launched, and just because the always lying Iranians had denied they were yet again the perpetrator of crimes does not mean they are any more believable this time.
