737 goes down shortly after takeoff near Tehran. Odd coincidence?
With everything going on in that region this afternoon/evening. It’s crazy.

The FAA already set restrictions for that area a few hours ago due to what was happening. It just seems like such an odd coincidence that a plane then goes down. Especially suspect is the fact that they have already rushed into the “mechanical failure” determination.
But I guess stranger things have happened. Quote:

The Wag the Dog Theorist say why not throw some Ukraine Intrigue into this scenario.
Meanwhile, Get Mayor Pete on CNN for game of Checkers... Hard to really believe and get anything honest from any media outlets or sources when there's been so many years of CIA counterintelligence and Pallets of Cash bandied out in these "hot spots" Who's deceiving who and why ? Real Answers are about as clear as Epstien's Suicide |

Vadym Prystaiko, Ukraine’s minister of foreign affairs, said 63 Canadians, 82 Iranians and 11 Ukrainians were on board— the Ukrainian nationals included two passengers and the nine crew. There were also 10 Swedish, four Afghan, three German and three British nationals.
It remains unclear what happened. Qassem Biniaz, a spokesman for Iran’s Road and Transportation Ministry, said it appeared a fire struck one of its engines. The pilot of the aircraft then lost control of the plane, sending it crashing into the ground. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/...cial-says.html |

Ground crews and mechanics jobs have been compromised. I'd look there first, but actually believe it is just a coincidence...an odd one, but coincidence. No one has claimed responsibility so I don't put much "conspiracy" in to it.

Iran's definition of "technical" - Your lame ass can't fly a plane without a wing and 1/2 the cockpit.

It looks like Ukraine is walking back their statement that is was mechanical failure. For now.

If it wasn’t a terrorist group and was accidentally shot down by Iran, I don’t think they’re going to openly claim responsibility.

Iran remains nearly as incompetent as they were 40 yrs ago. They just have more modern weaponry. This was an Iranian **** up. There’s no other plausible explanation.

It's a shame whatever the reason it crashed, hope they didn't shoot their own airplane down though...

Notice the “technical holes” in the fuselage.

Page has miraculously vanished but they showed a real time playback of the flights telemetry from ground to loss of signal and it was an absolutely uneventful takeoff and climb, they maintained a steady rate of climb and were about to pass 8000 and poof...no transponder signal and its on fire breaking apart.
