Agreed he's been fvcking insufferable since the strikes. Probably because he doesn't want to be charged with sedition lol.
Complete nonsense. And Iran will go down as the only country in modern history to have knocked an airplane out of the sky NEXT to an MAJOR airport.
But I been stopped by Basij at gunpoint a year after the major Ahmadinejad protests knowing I was dual citizen. And when they learned of the mistake their boss came and apologized repeatedly. I been in the best neighborhoods of Tehran and the worst neighborhoods where most people don’t even go into. I feel safe there and have no worries, been in the streets at 3 AM without a care in the world.
There is nothing to fear of the Republic if you have connections and know the game they play.
So yes I criticize the Republic when warranted and defend its action when warranted because I can. I ain’t some wanna fanboy needing to act as the spokesperson for a propaganda machine.
There is two Iranians on this forum: the West loving Shah-ist and the Republic loving neo conservatives.
I can comfortably say I am in the middle of these two extremes.
As i said before: The military did nothing wrong. If there is a threat against Iran with a lot of enemy fighterplanes around Iran in the air then there is highest alarm and it is better to shot down anything unknown than losing strike back capability. And unknown was the passanger plane cause of no transponder as we learned. If not first there was a manpad what kills transponder and than the passangerplane makes a turn back to airport and came over a military site and so TOR1 fired.
But regardless of this all: Only the people who do not implement "No Fly" fpr civil planes are guilty. Cause this all could not happen - regardless it was a terror attack or it was military attack - if there had been a No Fly.

@Ich the plane was not “turning” back. It’s been proven to be a LIE. Look at the picture of the cockpit, the TOR-M1 detonated before impact and did a full frontal shotgun shrapnel blast to the cockpit the pilot and instruments were likely dead/destroyed instantly.
Hence why there was no more communication with the plane as it went down. The flight path the plane took before being hit was very similar to its other paths.
Major questions that need to be answered
1) Why was the order given that cruise missiles were fired and entering Iranian airspace?
2) Why was a TOR-M1 kill sphere system used in Tehran a civilian zone when it is designed for secluded military bases with no civilian traffic? It’s the difference between putting a human to monitor the border of a country and putting a minefield.
3) Why was the alert (defcon) level not dropped in the hours after the attack?
