Fars news agency put the total number of people on board the plane at 15, of whom 13 were definitely killed.
Hmmmmmmmmm. Could the CIA be more competent than we thought...???
does anyone know enough about internal military politics in iran to say what this guy's standing was with the new government? Just because the crash is suspicious doesn't mean it was an external party involved. Even american cabinet-level officials have plane crashes when they are about to cause some trouble (ron brown).
No one's mentioned the possibility of the Israeli Air Force?
