Aw damn, thanks.  Been at work and hadn't heard this yet.  It just didn't make sense for them to knowingly down that plane.

So far it definitely doesn't seem like it was on purpose.  And to be honest, if it were on purpose there would really be no way to know.  It still seems like a major screw up rather than intentional though.

Either way it sucks for everyone on board plus their friends and families.  There were people from several countries on that flight.  Thankfully no one on the ground has been reported to have been hurt.

Did you see the Iranian protests now that they have admitted they downed the passenger jet?  They (no idea of the percentage of the population - probably a relatively small one) are calling for the removal of the supreme leader... Hell it showed them even avoiding walking on paintings of an American and Israeli flag that were put on the ground for the purpose of being walked on. ...   How did Trump wind up getting such a lucky roll (at a horrible cost of course)?
