Sorry, thought you were being sarcastic. It's just that I have alot of Iranian friends from school and am a little touchy on this subject. For the most part, the Iranian people hate their government and long for democracy.

Sorry for jumping the gun on your comment.

I, too, have many Iranian friends and wouldn't wish death on innocents. If it had been a military plane on a mission to hurt Americans then it'd be a bit different.

I don't remember any of us celebrating when the U.S. Vincennes accidently shot down an Iranian passenger jet during a firefight with Iranian boats in the late 80's early 90's.

I just remember the horror of it and the horror other Americans expressed when it happened.
