YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOUR OPINION, WHOEVER SHIELD THE WICKED IS WICKED ALSO. THE IRANIAN REGIME, MUSLIM FANATICS CONSTITUTE THREAT TO WORLD PEACE. GOD BLESS AMERICA FOR HER LEADING ROLL IN THE WORLD.
Educate yourself first by reading the references I have provided please. You ain't thinking logically, because you are not well schooled in international politics.

Delight yourself with this video below it's with respect to Nigeria and the U.S.A. Nothing Religious but FACT.

Do I need to? Similar facts. Who said technology has ever been perfect?

Plus US never admitted responsibility for the accident. It was part of the deal with Iran. Lets not paint either in a good light.

That happened in 1988, u can't compare tech of then to tech of now, or u are saying Iran technology are that of 1988.

As in I never understand people when it comes the west. They are still slaves of the white men. How hard is it to understand that neither country is blameless?

US never admitted responsibility yet the regretted the action and paid compensation for it? Your loving Iran shot down a plane they cleared to fly in their own airspace, denied it for days and when the evidence is overwhelming, they made a u-turn and and started blabbing from both sides of the mouth? US never denied downing the plane rather, they admitted and explained the reasons why it was downed. The radioed the pilot several times and he refused to identify itself. So stop talking rubbish cos it makes you look stupid.

So should we say the US is also irresponsible with the amount of civilians that has been killed in Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq too?... although the people killed are not US citizens but are they not human lives too?.
I hear you, but the scenarios & dynamics are different.

Here Iran is operating under her own airspace, they have total & absolute control over their airspace and knows or show know exactly what is in there airspace and which coordinates they are.

Iran’s Air traffic control just the Plane an all clear signal to go, Iran military are professionals and have access to all that info and should know the flight pattern of that plane from lift up from the airport....moreso all commercial planes have callsigns and tail signs that can easily be spotted.

This is incompetency at Iran’s highest professional level and a big screwup that makes them a laughing stock.

Yes, it’s very unfortunate that innocent victim fall casualty to US bombings in those places that you have mentioned, but they were in the immediate vicinity of the intended target and it is anyone’s guess, if they will be hit or not....and US is operating on a foreign soil, where they do have absolute control....they are apples & oranges in comparison.

US did not admit responsibility! Apologising and owning a mistake is different from throwing some money.

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.
have you forgotten when nigerian military said they accidentally killed 202 people in IDP camps,
they said it was a mistake

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.

If ordinary iranians are really wise they should work with Trump to overthrow their incompetent govt just like the way muamar gaddaffi was overthrown by lybians.

I wonder what that terrorist-sympathiser @KingAzubuike or @kingAzubuike would say about this after defending Iran as not being responsible for shooting down the plane. When they tell him to go and get facts right, he will be forming professor on top of what he doesn't know undecided

If you haven't seen this time that what happened in Libya is a catastrophe to all libyans including those that "worked with united states"

Then you must be a fool.....
Your country has never is never and may never be better than Libya during Gaddafi .........

IF UKRAIN SHOULD CARRY OUT SIMILAR ACTION AGAINST IRAN, WHAT DID YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN??THE USA ONLY CHECK MATE THE ACTIVITIES OF ROGUE COUNTRIES SUCH AS IRAN WHO PROMOTE VIOLENCE IN THE REGION.
Am having a feeling that English language and comprehension is a problem for some of you. D topic of d thread says

"Iran says it "unintentionally" shot down Ukrainian jetliner".

When u look at d topic, one word stands out and that us "unintentionally". Is it like u don't no d meaning of d word? Even while making a television address yday, Donald trump called d incident an "error". Pls what is an error?

Also d fact that Iran said it unintentionally shot down d plane is already an admission of guilt and wrongdoing.

But look at ur comment below despite u reading d word "unintentionally" in d topic:

"THIS WHY IRAN SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO ACQUIRE NUCLEAR WEAPONS OF ANY KIND. THEY ARE UNSTABLE, EVIL MINDED. 176 LIVES LOST JUST LIKE THAT. HOPE UKRAIN AND THE FAMILY TAKE ACTION AGAINST IRAN. RIP".

That is y I replied with this:

"But d US shot down an Iranian plane carrying more than 200 people in 1988. Just last week, a US drone strike in Afghanistan killed 60 innocent souls in an attempt to kill a Taliban commander. Does d US deserve to have nuclear weapons? Is d US good and saintly?"

Unfortunately, u have no idea on how to respond to it.

Here u are making an incoherent and disjointed comment:

"IF UKRAIN SHOULD CARRY OUT SIMILAR ACTION AGAINST IRAN, WHAT DID YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN??THE USA ONLY CHECK MATE THE ACTIVITIES OF ROGUE COUNTRIES SUCH AS IRAN WHO PROMOTE VIOLENCE IN THE REGION".

How is Iran a "rogue nation"? How does Iran promote violence in d region? Is Iran responsible 4d US invasion of Iraq that led to deaths of Sadam and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis? When d US shot down an Iranian passenger plane killing more than 200 people, what was Irans reaction? How was d issue settled?

stop talking bulshit. They didn’t misfire, they shot the plane down because it refused to indentify itself after several attempts. Also they didn’t deny it, rather they admitted and explained the circumstance on which it happened. US army will never shoot down a civilian plane on American soil, they are not dumb to that extent.

This is like the dumbest reason ever. They mistook the plane for an aggressor's? The same plane that took off from their own very soil? What manner of foolish mistake was that one?
They couldn't even carry out a simple monitoring of their airspace and they wanted to go into war with USA?

Iran is a monumental joke.
Too shameful in their quest for weapons of mass destruction!!!.How can a nation of over 80millions be led assrayed by religious tyrants and feudal leaders who are wasting the nation resources on endless fear of war with virtual all the parties in Middle East?.
They should go to UN to apologise to the World for the innocent lives wasted when the War has not even started.when thousands were being sympathetic to a general killed,what now happens to all those killed innocently now across the globe.?
