Thanks sir but I think a stupid man is someone who cannot get his points across without abuse.

You are somehow right in your post. I also not in full support of most of the US activities in some countries but I will like to advise middle East countries to stop sponsoring terrorism. Also, I think most of these countries are inviting them by collecting their aids. They send aids to over 200 countries in the world and those countries don't want them to interfere in the affairs? That's not possible my Brother. "Chop my money, chop my food and u no wan me have any say in ur life". They should start by rejecting their aids first.

Thank God internet does not forget, let's see if your prediction of the US destruction in 10yrs will come to pass.

That's the point....they have equipments they obviously lack the technical know how to operate.Their so called Russian advanced radar couldn't identify passenger plane from that of military.
God forbid war breaks out, Iran would just kill all their citizens thinking they are targeting an enemy .so sad.
More reason they have no business having a nuclear weapons.

This is messed up men.

Same way America mistakenly shot down an Iranian passenger plane in 1988.

The good thing is that Iran will find it hard to get allies to take any further action against America.

This should reduce the possibilities of a war.

Most people commenting here and shouting about irresponsibility and Iran and shouting about incompetence and disarm Iran, they dont know simple history.

The US itself has once shot down an Iranian passenger plane carrying 290 people over the Persian Gulf in 1988. The US said it was a mistake. All 290 people onboard perished.

[s]what's the big deal here?. Same happened when mini war started btw Russia and Ukraine and Western powers backed Ukraine. In the process, Ukraine passenger aircraft was hit by missile accidentally and Russia eventually claimed responsibility. It was accident and families were compensated.

This just happened 3 to 5yrs ago. It is not a yardstick to start blaming Ayatollah, Iran or whatever. All they need to do is compensate the families. Remember there were more Iranians in the flight as well. So NL "war analysts" shouldn't start using this avenue to support attacks on Iran.

Mistakes happen[/s]
You petty terrorist!!

Iran that cannot differentiate enemy planes from civilian airplane, but wants to go to war with a more sophisticated country?

Irony is their citizens are the highest hit. Ediots!

This is exactly why Iran must never posses advanced military weapons. Imagine the height of irresponsibility.


You only have missiles, you've caused families to mourn. 176 people killed like rats. More bad is that over 70% of them were below 40 years old. Imagine the toll on their families.


If you only had missiles and did this, what would happen when you have nuclear weapons. These weaponry comes with discipline, intelligence and responsibility none of which Iran has. From the killing of innocent aid workers, to destabilising the gulf region, to destroying an independents country's embassy the tyranny and irresponsibility of Iran continues. What a sick shit hole country
US killed Afghanistan Taliban leader in an airstrike that claimed 60 civilian lives.. aw is that different.. aw can u send a missile where civilians (women n children) are just becoz u want 2 bring down a target..

An IDP camp on air may resemble a terrorist camp as terrorist sometimes don't wear uniforms which might have led to the attack. But a fighter jet is quite different from a passenger plane because of the huge size of the latter. The Iranian military should have been able to differentiate between the two.

Just imagine, hope all the Iran apologist can see now? They not only did it bt denied until now? How can u shoot an airliner? This is pretty hard to call a mistake.

These were innocent people/citizens going about their lives. How cud this happen?

Wise people already knew the plane was shot down. Senseless people lacking objectivity kept saying don’t believe the us, wait for the black box and crap. Here u have it. There are no coincidences in situations like this even the quakes.

Where are all the anti US war experts here on Nairaland that swore that Iran didn't shoot down that plane.?
Even that annoying KingAzubuike that went so far to claim that it was the US that shot it down.
I wonder how it wasn't so obvious that Iran did it with all the live anti aircraft missiles they had lying around.
Engine failure indeed, both engines failed at the same time and burst into flames... and nairalanders were running with it like Dumbo's in here.
Everyone now loves Iran, the same Iran they accused of sponsoring Shiite "terrorists"

Your darling U.S. also denied for almost a month when she shot down Iranian airliner killing 290 on board, 60 of which were children.

So are u expecting us to praise Iran because US has done same mistake 32 yrs ago

Re: Iran Says It ‘unintentionally’ Shot Down Ukrainian Jetliner by GEEBITE: 8:27am On Jan 11, 2020
Always trying to equate one evil with another shows the mindset. America never denied for days they shot down a plane flying through a war zone.As unfortunate that incident was,there was no way the naval vessel will take chances with that. But here we have a plane that just left your own airport and in your airspace. It shows how unsophisticated their radar systems are.
Befii:
Who is UN to disarm Iran, u mean US. Well history is replaying itself, dnt forget in 1988, US also bombed an Iranian passenger plane killing all 288 persons on board, they said it was a mistake. So u see no one is excluded from human error! And mind you, US citizens may not have been on board the plane, but there were US allies Canada. U should blame ur almighty Trump not Iran, had he not made a poor decision and authorised the killing of that Iranian general, am sure by now we wouldn't be where we are right now.

Very annoying,saying what he knows nothing about.Reality is different from wishful thinking.
When it comes to Islamic extremism/terrorism,real world powers usually have a common ground,that is why they always try to suppress that religion.
Am speaking of USA, CHINA, RUSSIA, INDIA, ISRAEL ETC
Only USA is the most tolerant of the above mentioned to Islam.

that is why no one should pray for war.... there was a heightened tension in the region and the Iranians mistook the plane for an aggressor so they shot it down, now innocent lives are gone..... both sides are guilty of this.


You people should speak wisely so that spirits of the dead won't hunt you.


It's very simple , after ballistic missiles strike at us base, the best thing to do is to ground all flight flying on the Iranian space ...it was a foolish mistake because plan took off from Tehran , Iran, and was brought down in Tehran, how does that make sense to u ??...as local as Nigeria , we still ground flight at the north east...The Iran should not be slow to use nuclear weapon and the ballistic missile should be detonated from them, this is another reason why they could not kill a single American soldier in their missile strike in Iraq, they are not matured for it
