Rubbish, fuck Iran but buying into propaganda bullshit like this makes us no better than the left. We here to understand what is going on and learn about the world not to buy into shit that makes us emotionally feel good.

No military is going to plan a strike and then warn civilian aircraft of what is going on, additionally what human shield does this even provide? The airliner was shot down long after the strikes happened, it was shot down as the IRGC misidentified the plane as a US bomber.

The fog of war is a very real thing, Iran's military aren't exactly anything close to as good as the media shill them to be either; badly trained on a foreign radar system and scared they will miss an attacking aircraft.

Further, there is no logical sense to this claim, look at the amount of trouble shooting down that airliner has caused Iran's leadership.

Israel would love nothing more than America going to war with Iran, don't fall for Israel's attempt to manipulate you into that.
