We’re still waiting for their final analysis as to whether Iran’s missile attack was offside.

Obviously nothing verified but looks like it’s been caught on film. Someone smarter than me can probably clear up the flash of light at the start of the video and then the explosion higher in the sky later on.
Been verified as legit by the NYT. The flash at the 2 second mark is the surface to air missile exploding next to the plane.
There is no explosion later in the video, it's simply the other half of the street lamp coming in to view - however, it coincides with the sound of the explosion from the missile hit at the 2 second mark. Sound travels slower than light and the plane was 2500/3000 meters away hence the long delay in the camera man hearing the explosion.

Where's this "Strong"leadership from Trump? The Iranians have shot down a plane full of westerners and Trump says it is an accident.
Watch this till the end and listen carefully to him
Very articulate fella but very dubious content, feel sure there would be far more voicing the same rhetoric if this was completely true.
Ha ha, yep, always wondered why women weren’t allowed to drive, I’m sure it wasn’t in the Quran.Or the sacrificial lamb after an independent Iranian investigation finds the plane spontaneously combusted for which he'll be indicted for breaking the ancient Sharia rules on aeronautical safety, and for which he'll be given 100 lashings and then summarily hanged.
If that was me, I'd be ringing in sick.

Is that a Nissan model?
Operation Trumps fault swings back into action.........
Look orange man is bad, orange man is a **** and orange man is almost everything he gets accused of being but it was Iran that shot down the airliner with a Russian missile.
Iran is to blame.
The reasoning by some on here and in the media is strange as fuck. Stretching and twisting to find blame somewhere else :(
No Karen. It means the fucking Ayatollah and his cronies in fact ( not inadvertently) caused it.Does this mean trump has inadvertly caused this plane being shot down by kicking this all off?
What's happening here :?
Oh really? Now that I know it was all the fault of some crackpot TV-man and not the fault of the unfortunately"heightened state of alert Commander." Let's go ahead and give the commander a TMT medal of Honor, and hang the real culprit. The fucking news man making up his own shit in the studio.Although Seth has a pretty strong opinion on Trump, his thread's are always well researched and sourced.
There is pretty much no doubt an Iranian SAM battery operator let a missile off at a commercial airliner, but under these circumstances it was almost inevitable.
Reading Seth's thread the timelines certainly add up. If Hannity was privy to sensitive information, and he decides (or was instructed) to blurt out (incorrectly as it turns out) that 6 B-52 are headed to Iran, every single Surface to Air Missile battery commander in Iran will be on a heightened state of alert, and at that point ANYTHING that pops up on the targeting radar COULD be a legitimate target. They would have had 60 seconds at most to decide if to fire or not.
Yuo. That's totally who's to blame here. :(
Again, this almost certainly has nothing to do with the US news anchor. Just a dolt in Iran fucking up.Won't be the first time and won't be the last time bad intel has led to innocent civilians being murdered. Both sides are dickheads, Iran should have closed its airspace anticipating that the Americans could respond to the missile attacks. And the US shouldn't be briefing Fox News that they have sent 6 B52 bombers over to Iran if they haven't.
Worst still the US probably did not brief Fox news on anything. If I were to guess, if say Hannity on his own probably suggested that's what the US ought to do.
Iran clearly didn't think that news was worth a darn, if they did, they'd have closed their airspace. The fact that they didn't, suggests strongly that this is just an individual fukup.
