Thank God we didn’t retaliate tonight. The left would LOVE to blame this on Trump. Add it to articles of impeachment.

One has to question the wisdom of running commercial air traffic on a night where your entire country is bracing for a massive air attack. This makes me sick to my stomach and angry that nobody thought this might be a bad idea. It is likely that some poor moron thought they were under attack near a commercial airport.

Based on the video the plane is clearly on fire and breaking apart as it descends.

Those poor souls.

Yes, Basic.

The military people thought this may be the last day of their lives.

There’s nothing routine about this day in Tehran.

The Democrats will still try to blame this on Trump.

Wait. For. It.

Oh yeah.....it was shot from an erratic US ballistic missile fired from one of the Iraqi military bases.

Same type of incident, only this time it's the Iranians who shot down a civilian airliner.

They don’t know if US Special forces are in the country and going to launch attacks or not.

They are told to be ready for anything.

They are expecting to be unleashed upon.

"Gosh, why wouldn’t Iran shut down air flights?"

Incoming arms and parts.

Does the Ukraine sell arms and technical machines and knowledge to Iran?

Total electronics failure from EMP skunkworks weapon from above and hadji-crazed AAA flamomg holes from below would definitely qualify as a real technical problem.

Looks if the pilot tried to make a belly landing but there was those walls.
