    So Iran shot down a civilian plane, but it's Trump's fault because it never would have happened if he hadn't taken out Soleimani? Come on.

    I like all of the "prove to me there was an imminent threat" talk. He was a bad dude with American blood on his hands. It was long overdue.

    iran still acting like it didn't happen. They should probably go ahead and bomb somewhere else so everybody forgets about this one. I'm sure their target list is written in crayon right next to the dudes who didn't accidently shoot down the plane.

    You know why Iran isn't bragging about this, the way they do everything else?

    Cause they [uck fay]ed up.

    If they hadn't, they'd be talking about how they're going to destroy the world, and blah blah blah.

    Saw a video that showed the crash site just 20 hours or so after the plane hit the ground, and there wasn’t a shred of debris on it. Nothing.

    Clean dirt in a field, like nothing happened.

    But I also read where they’re going to let the Canadians, Boeing and probably even the US’ NTSB come and investigate, which is a testament to how universally trusted and revered those cats are.

    Note this post, IP, and the high praise I’ve heaped on this non-DOD gub-mint outfit.

    Throw the NRC in there, too, and a few more.

    They are very few, but they exist.

    Your standard is not unattainable, and it is not unfair.

    Doesn't matter if there was or wasn't. The piece of shit is dead.

    I don't think anyone claimed he was alive? But there is a circular logic to all of it.

    They finally admitted it was a mistake.

    Sad, but it happens, and I am impressed they admitted it. Of course they heap most or all the blame on the US, but baby steps.

    Itchy trigger finger after firing a dozen missiles in an act of war. I assume they get a pass for 4 days of lying about it, knowing full well the truth. Terrorist regime gonna terrorist regime.

    Yeah, pretty obvious at this point we had a shot to take him out and made up the reason to justify it. Maybe I should care more. I just don't. I don't think it's out of bounds to say there were probably going to be more events in that area if he was alive.

    And this is a general political statement, and could be used for either party in power, but it's really, really sad that we as a society will demonize a POTUS more than a radical murderer for political points. Just tip your tap and say good job.

    I don’t think they’re really scoring that many political points either.

    Nope, which makes it even more ridiculous. But makes their base happy I guess.
