Quote:Originally Posted by kaptainmyke When driving home from hockey game, my son mentioned Boeing 737 crashed. I asked him where? He responded in Iran after takeoff. Then he noted fire in sky, and I responded: I bet Iran mistakenly shot it down. |

Wing, fuselage, and tail show shrapnel impacts consistent with being shot down. At this point, experts are suggesting this is the most likely cause and not technical issues with engine as Iran first reported and since eliminated in their official statements. | ||

aye word is malfunctioning missile defense identified the plane as a threat and shot it down. Probably the reason they took the black box and won't share it. | ||

This is a great article about the plane crash and evidence supporting a technical issue and not a missile impact. https://www.rt.com/op-ed/477756-ukrainian-plane-crash-questions-iran/ | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by kaptainmyke Yes, as the KGB would say, "there are no coincidences" (learned that in a comic book somewhere). Guarantee Iranian missile defense was on high alert and accidentally shot it down in a panic. But there seems to be seems to be an international desire to calm tensions, so I doubt the official position will ever change. |

Quote:Originally Posted by kaptainmyke Sorry @kaptainmyke that article does not support technical issue. Further, a missile strike doesn't necessarily cause disintegration in mid-air and quite frequently, incapacitates the pilot(s) and may only render an aircraft incapable of proper landing ie devastating crash. I do have some knowledge in this area as former aviation ordnanceman. |

Sorry I did not mean it that way I'm not sure why I worded it that way I propose the service work on the plane just 2 days before the crash should have some sort of details on what was performed. Right? Would that be an opportunity for a force at work to set an explosive device perhaps? | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by EbaySellerThe irony of this issue is they have now become all they protested about...when our warship accidentally fired on and destroyed an Iranian airliner there was outrage and anger to this day over the accident. (iran airflight 655) when it was all finished the US paid each family who lost someone on the flight $213,103.45 per passenger Lets see what Iran does ... |

I don't know what it will lead to...other than NOT war... I wonder how Iran feels about it's response...not only was their retaliation trivial, but now the related collateral is a tragedy for many innocent victims, nearly half of them from their own country. |

Actually the world seems ready to accept the idea of an accidental shoot-down and would likely even put part of the blame on the U.S. But Iran is making the mistake of continual denial in the face of mounting evidence. This will backfire on them and what could have been a forgiven tragedy will become an unforgivable denial and cover up. I suspect Iran will wise up shortly and accept responsibility. | ||
