On being too generous... Archived Message Posted by David Macilwain on January 15, 2020, 11:32 am, in reply to "Re: Another reading on the downing of a civilian airliner in Teheran" Thanks Margo, and read his earlier thread on the protests etc. He is very clear in his thinking, but I feel a little too cautious. From the start this shooting rang alarm bells because it involved Canada and Ukraine, and was almost a copy of MH17. For me the main puzzle is how the US planned to play this "accident" had Iran not fired - unpredictably - a volley of ballistic missiles at their bases. It doesn't seem quite possible that they could have set this all up - installed malware at the service, lined up the video shooter etc AND the chosen plane if this was a reaction to Iran's missiles rather than a separate and second attack following Soleimani's murder. Was the idea that Iran would be shown to retaliate for his murder by shooting down this plane? And the ballistic missiles almost disabled the plot. The plane just had to go ahead with the flight, after an hour's delay, while - strangely - the pilot's wife was telling her husband "not to do it" and had a premonition something bad would happen. The point is that if the US/UK/Israel/Canada are just a little bit guilty, they are absolutely and wholly guilty of a double act rivalling 9/11, planned and launched to start the war of the new decade. with their continued blizzard of lies about Soleimani and Iran, and continued silence about the Entity's nuclear arsenal and support for terrorists, they have confirmed their guilt - except they aren't guilty in the public's mind.
