After a massive cover up, Iran finally admits that it did accidentally shoo down an Ukranian airliner, killing all 176 people on board.
They had cleaned the area completely of debris and even bulldozed to make sure they didn’t miss one little piece.
Curiously, the American media and Democrats have blamed Trump for the downing oif the jetliner but Iran does not.
The plane was brought down by two surface to air missiles which seems to lend credence to my theory is that someone thought the airliner was an American bomber.
They would not have used surface to air missiles in attacking our military bases.
The plane was shot down the same night that Iran shot missiles at two Iraqi military bases that house American soldiers.
There were no casualties resulting from those attacks.
The admission follows several days of lying about shooting the plane down and accusing the United States of “psychological operation” against Iran by “propagating such fallacies” that it falsely claimed was “a big lie.”
Iranian Government spokesman Ali Rabiei said:
“It is unfortunate that the psychological operation of the US government and those supporting it are adding insult to the injury of the bereaved families and victimizing them for certain goals by propagating such fallacies. No one will assume responsibility for such a big lie once it is known that the claim had been fraudulent.”
On Thursday, The New York Times reported new video that showed the moment that the plane was clearly struck by a surface to air missile, writing, “Visual and sonic clues in the footage also matched flight path information and satellite imagery of the area near where the plane crashed.”

After the plane was shot down, Iran said that it would not turn over the black box from the wreckage to Boeing, but would turn it over to one of their allies for examination.
Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, a notorious propagandist, wrote on Twitter: “A sad day. Preliminary conclusions of internal investigation by Armed Forces: Human error at time of crisis caused by US adventurism led to disaster.
Our profound regrets, apologies and condolences to our people, to the families of all victims, and to other affected nations.”
