This wasn’t/isn’t something to celebrate. It was a tragedy.

It was a tragedy. I fault the Iranians who piloted that plane for acting in a belligerent manner, refusing to answer radio communications and flying that path during a time of hostility.

It was a shame and a tragedy...innocent people killed in a time of battle, but it could have been prevented.

It did highlight the need for better management of information and data as well.

Yeah really.

We made a horrifying mistake and downed an airliner full of civilians... "Aegis all the way!"

I wonder if this is connected to the missile downing of TWA 800 off NYC?

It wasn't a deliberate shoot down, but considering that Iran is one of the premiere terrorist-sponsoring regimes on the planet, I view it as them reaping what they sow.

Call it bad karma, call it whatever you like.

Sh*t happens.
