BREAKING:'No sign of life' detected at crash site of helicopter carrying President Ebrahim Raisi, others, Iran state TV says
Bell 212s are in use by Canada Coast Guard,US police in Calif, Thai police and others. They were mostly at this point built in Canada.
So the Iranians flying them does not speak to any obsolescence.
How long since Iran acquired theirs, though, and were they purchased new? Or were they produced in Iran? — Iran manufactures their own copies of the Bell 212 and Bell helicopters. These are known as the Shabaviz 2-75 and the Shabaviz 206 respectively. I’d ride one... at gunpoint.
(Years ago I did engineering lab work with Iranian students. THAT was “enlightening”. Ya’ couldn’t beat those guys at doing math in their heads, though.)
My post 82 is a correction to my earlier post regarding the Iranian choppers. They do produce at least some copies, themselves.
Is that anything like “Elle” in ?Deep Impact”? Which turned out to be an acronym, “ELE”, for “Extinction Level Event”.
Al Jazeera confirms: Ebrahim Raisi, Iran’s president, dies in helicopter crash.

Apparently Iranian State media has also confirmed, says CNN:

But that means no Iranian ash-e-doogh soup for you.
Ash-e doogh is a traditional Iranian soup that’s especially popular in the region of Azeri. This thick soup is usually made with a combination of yogurt or ayran, vegetables such as purslane, spinach, onions, garlic, peas, and chickpeas, fresh herbs such as mint, parsley, coriander, and tarragon, as well as eggs, rice, lamb meatballs, beans, and various spices.
When served, ash-e doogh is often topped with mint and garlic fried in oil. This yogurt soup is also popular in Turkey and Azerbaijan.👨🍳👩🍳🥣
RE: He’s now Raisi Crispy.
Good one.
Not Raisin Bran although you can’t spell “raisin” without “raisi.”
unless of course people are ready to send their sons and dtrs and grandchildren into war because there will be a draft...
Genesis 12:3
And I will bless those who bless you,
And the one who curses you I will curse.
And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”
Ha.
Heard after taking a good look at the new arrivals, the 72 virgins in the afterlife all said “I have a headache.”
Better for them would be finding fireproof material for their laabaadehs or qabaas. They will be taking a dip in the Lake of Fire.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now, for all of us who wondered:
A Guardian article on Agha Arabpour commented: “You may have noticed (ex)President Khatami always wears the labbaadeh but the Supreme Leader [Ali Khamanei] prefers the qabaa”. Here are the details: “Both the labbaadeh and the qabaa are long and come down to the top of the slippers (this is the case for traditional clerics who do not wear trousers; for those who do, the robe comes down to the middle of the legs). But whereas the qabaa has a V-neck and one side crosses the other at the waist, the more expensive labbaadeh has a high, round collar, tighter sleeves and stiff panelling in the chest area so that it looks very tailored. Many believe that the high-collared version is directly influenced by the robes of the Orthodox and Catholic priests in Lebanon, where large Christian and Muslim communities coexist.”

I’m waiting for Biden to send OUR condolences...That’s how ridiculous he is....
I thought o could makre out a single body out line there at the end of the clip.
If he was planning to initiate Ezekiel 38 on Israel, the Real God may have just said “No, not yet”.
Now there’s no way to know, of course, but Iran IS definitely building towards that (disastrous, for Iran and friends) moment.
And Iran’s been building towards that moment, lately, with Joe, Obama, John Kerry, et al.
Aw. 🎻
Likely incinerated since the Chopper (called on purpose) was most likely carrying a full load of Jet A.
With Barry Sotero and his Junta leaders clearly being allies of the Mullahs, and ascribing to the WEF/UN Axis of Genocide, I fear you are right. It’s a new day and a new week. Oh, and now with World Turmoil “Joe the Prop” can go ahead with the WHO Pandemic treaty under cover of war.
He’s next and he probably knows it.
Israel has infiltrated Iran so thoroughly that they don’t have a clue who the saboteurs are. Someone they least expect with the Jihadi head-bruise and all.
CFT, especially with helicopters, is the main cause of course.

This also happens in fog, helicopters are just dangerous.
