While its paramilitary Revolutionary Guard took responsibility, a commander also claimed it warned Tehran to close off its airspace amid fears of U.S. retaliation over Iran launching ballistic missiles at Iraqi bases housing U.S. forces.
Then the story changed early Saturday morning, with Iran's general staff of its armed forces saying the flight had been "targeted unintentionally due to human error.""In my statement yesterday to the UK media, I conveyed the official findings of responsible authorities in my country that missile could not be fired and hit the Ukrainian plane at that period of time," he wrote. "I ... regret for conveying such wrong findings.
Yet even the army statement itself raises questions, as it said the flight moved "very close to a sensitive military spot" belonging to the Guard. Hajizadeh said the troops at the anti-aircraft battery mistook the flight for a cruise missile, though the plane was moving at just over 500 kmh . Cruise missiles travel at faster speeds. He also said the missile batter's crew had "only 10 seconds" to make a decision and their radios were jammed, something he didn't elaborate on. Iran routinely jams satellite and other signals.
Where are the videos of the Iranian people's protest against the downing of the Ukrainian airlines, killing 176 people? Has the US opposition's mouth becomes shut?
We all seen the video proof, even with Iran denying the claim.
There are no 'new questions' regarding the lack of transparency, honesty, integrity, morality or ethical behavior of anyone, anything or any entity that is steeped in Islam.
Hate, causes death, hate never causes anything positive but negative, if either the United States or Iran were not following an agenda of hate none of this would have happened, hey but who am I just one guy saying we should follow what Jesus has taught us that hate causes hate!
New questions arise about the Anti American bias of the MSM in Canada.
