Iran just admitted that they shot down that Ukrainian passenger plane. It was an accident, but a really bad accident.

In the face of mounting evidence, Iran on Saturday acknowledged that it shot down the Ukrainian jetliner by accident, killing all 176 people aboard. The admission by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard undermined the credibility of information provided by senior officials, who for three days had adamantly dismissed allegations of a missile strike as Western propaganda.
It also raised a host of new questions, such as why Iran did not shut down its international airport or airspace on Wednesday when it was bracing for the U.S. to retaliate for a ballistic missile attack on two military bases housing U.S. troops in Iraq. No one was hurt in that attack, carried out in retaliation for the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani in an American airstrike in Baghdad.
This is like the first time in recent memory where Western intelligence agencies actually told the truth about something. That’s why I just figured the Jews did this to blame it on Iran. Because they literally lie for a living.
But instead, it looks like they just took advantage of a major fuck up by the Iranian military.
Of course, all of this was triggered by the aggressive military actions on the American side. Still though, this was a bad fuck up. And why didn’t they ground all normal air travel out of Tehran considering everything that was going on?
The whole situation makes the Iranian government look terribly incompetent.
