The protest came a day after Iran said it “unintentionally” shot down a Ukrainian airliner and killed all 176 people on board. The downing came just hours after the Iranian military fired more than a dozen missiles at bases in Iraq housing American troops.
Victims of Wednesday’s crash included 82 Iranians, 63 Canadians, 11 Ukrainians, 10 Swedes, four Afghans, three Germans, and three British nationals.
The about-face by Iran, which originally claimed that a mechanical error was to blame, came after the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom said there was intelligence showing that Iranian anti-aircraft missiles took down the plane. Footage was also released showing the moment that the jet was shot down.
Ukraine’s president on Saturday insisted that Iran issue a full apology and pay the country after it shot down a Ukrainian airliner and killed all 176 people on board.

This can’t be right. The MSM has been telling us the Iranians are united over their hate for Trump.
Hey, lying Mullahs is just part and parcel of living in an Islamic country.
With salami dead, who will kill all the protesters?
I wonder if CNN will go with wall to wall coverage of these protests like they did with Soelimami’s funeral. HA! Sometimes I say the craziest things.
It was just a plane of infidel kaffirs so no big whup.
It wasn’t shot down “accidentally.”
At best, it was extreme negligence and recklessness.
Trigger-happy “Sons Of The Desert,” all excited and hopped up and ill-trained — or ill-commanded, if one wants to be the least bit charitable. (...and I don’t!)
Sure... This band of morons can handle nuclear weapon level of responsibility. We damn well better ZZAP them OUT of that particular delusion before it’s Tel Aviv, Berlin, or New York!
They better have good life insurance.
Also, haven't seen Arthur Neville (or whatever her name is) for quite a while. Boy, has she gotten ugly.
Death to liars? That’s a little harsh.
“Death to the liars”? Who would be left in the DC Divide & Control POWER CENTER?
It does all start with a lie.
I sincerely wonder what prompted them coming clean: the incontrovertible video evidence showing rocket contact , radar imaging showing same, the immediate wiping of the crash scene ?
.....OR......
..
....citizen unrest up against an administration tottering.
If I ran the RNC, MAGA hats and Trump signs would be on their way...
Khamenei is taking names of protesters.
I think we informed them we recorded the entire episode from a satellite and could show it if needed.
“...before it’s Tel Aviv, Berlin, or New York...”
Who cares?
Israel’s capitol is now in Jerusalem, Berlin is loaded with murderous muslims(SPIT!) and NYC is infested with leftist filth(DBL-SPIT!).
(Yeah, it’s a chiller out there...just back from a mile run around the sub in freezing drizzle. invigorating)?Dunno...but it is a good development.
President Trump will be recorded as the greatest LEADER in the world above even, Alexander.
How much y'wann'a bet the middle east implodes because Iran is an azzhole nation and people are pretty much fed up with all their (and others) "refugee" and "woe is me" and "all I wann'a do is have a better life, etc." .... BOOJIT !
Any ZZAP weapons on Mars?
