Lemme guess. Canada will do nothing, and also blame the US.

We shot it down but really it's all your fault for making us shoot missiles at you.

And Canada is considering sending a strongly worded letter.

Trump is looking better & better.

 

[Spike]

After days of denial they suddenly come clean and admit the shoot down?

Curious, the videos don t lie, too much evidence, obviously

They must have tracked down some buck Sgt equivalent little Haji to blame that pulled the trigger, sucks to be him

I honestly think that what they are saying is true. they got over panicked over the missile strike, and over reacted, because they are idiots like that.

How about we all just start behaving ourselves and these over reactions will be much fewer.

Really...what can Canada do? 95% of the world expects us to defend them.

No matter what the regime says, the Persian people have a different idea of what happened



Massive protests against Mullahs in Iran over the Ukraine airliner shootdown


Iranians are outraged. The public backlash at the regime, at officials' lies for the past 72 hours, at their incompetence is fierce even among supporters

Protestors screaming for Khamenei to resign.Chants, "All these years of crimes, Death to the Supreme Leader."

The public's anger has a clear target: Khamenei. Crowds chant "Khaemnei is a murderer, his regime is obsolete."

Thousands gather outside Amir Kabir University screaming "Death to the Dictator."

Public mourning gatherings turn into protests in #Iran. Angry crowds chanting, "Death to the liars.

that’s the liberal position on crime. Sure he robbed the liquor store but what did you do to force him to have to do it?

Ukraine wants compensation from Iran for shot-down airliner

Ukraine’s president is insisting that Iran issue a full apology and pay the country after it shot down a Ukrainian airliner and killed all 176 people on board.

The demands come a day after Tehran admitted that it "unintentionally" downed the airliner down with a surface-to-air missile. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responded to the news on Saturday and said that his country must receive compensation.

“Iran has pleaded guilty to downing the Ukrainian plane. But we insist on a full admission of guilt,” Zelensky said, according to RadioFreeEurope.

“We expect from Iran assurances of their readiness for a full and open investigation, bringing those responsible to justice, the return of the bodies of the dead, the payment of compensation, official apologies through diplomatic channels,” he added.

The victims of Wednesday’s crash included 82 Iranians, 63 Canadians, 11 Ukrainians, 10 Swedes, four Afghans, three Germans, and three British nationals.

U.S. intelligence saw Iranian radar lock onto the jet before the plane was shot down. The country’s anti-aircraft systems were on alert hours after the country fired more than a dozen missiles at bases housing U.S. forces in Iraq.

Video has been released of the missile hitting the plane before it falls from the sky.

Lmfao. How damn true. Can’t handle air defense systems. Maybe we should give them to Iran. They nuke themselves

Iranians working on their ICBM delivery system:

It may need a little work.

While those cartoons are funny, the actually misdirect from a much darker truth.

The Iranians targeting is not at all flawed. In the past they have hit with perfect precision those targets they wish to hit. In the case of the missile attack, they purposefully fired upon meaningless, not lethal targets.

Right up until they decided to quite purposefully shoot down a commercial airliner. Which they did, btw, with perfect accuracy and deadly purpose.

They were nothing at all like Wiley E. Coyote.

Iranian rockets are more accurate than the weapons of a cartoon coyote. I think I can agree with that.

Which makes the 15 missiles landing in the desert very, very interesting. Seems more and more that Iran intentionally lobbed a few harmless missiles into Iraq, with no intention of causing harm, no?
