A recurring theme I've noticed, leftists invert blame whenever they can? So at either the macro or micro level. America is to blame when they attack an embassy in a different country. The churchgoers are to blame for just not dying quietly down there in Texas. "Your death, before their dishonor"

another reason to be skeptical that this was an accident If you had to pick two countries it would be Ukraine and Canada. Not that Ukraine is not tough but so many are against them and what are they going to do to Iran.
When people try to be less into conspiracies than I, I have to wonder about that. At some point people are trying to play down an obvious possibility for whatever reason. If you don't know Iran's history of terrorism, then don't even try to play. They very much could have done this on purpose and anyone who doesn't realize this doesn't know much about them. Hell, it was the perfect time to do such a thing. They are not trying to get voted into the UN Security Council. They want people afraid and unsure.

they just make shit up now ... Tony Heller (onYouTube) shows NASA and others just adjust data at will, or pic a time frame where there was a rise, but the main trend was flat or down.
But the Great Lakes drain to the oceans, so if they are high or low, I'd guess it is seasonal, unless they dammed up the outlets.

Appealing to their humanity, hoping they will show mercy or come around, facts, logic, reason, basic decency - forget it. Ain't gonna happen. Only ratchets one way. They'll be firing up the gas chambers first chance they get. It's what they do. In fact, it's the only thing they've ever done, apparently. Look at history. Every single country where the socialists take control ends up the same way. To pick one: Argentina was, at one time, the 3rd wealthiest country on the planet.
Not anymore. And they still haven't recovered over a hundred years later. Socialism is pure unadulterated poison. Don't misunderstand- there are horrible societal problems, but leftists use these conditions as their springboard to power. They have no intention of repair. Just power for themselves.

Couple that with possibly Trump reaching out through a back channel to the Iranians and explaining that there were two paths that this story could go.

Thanks Ben but I've decided in the last week that the big mo-mees are not for me.
Hogmartin, had a wing nut and bolt strip out that are part one of the spurs on my stage custom kick drum. 2 years old. Cheap metal.
And not only will they not back it, they won't sell me just the nut and bolt.
Nooo. Have to but damn near the entire spur.
Thank you Sweetwater, the co I bought it from, for going to great lengths to make it right.

generic world language lessons are pointless in my opinion. I knew a lot of people on college who took a foreign language and could not speak a lick of it at the end of two semesters. Start them young in some type of immersive environment or do it in a very intensive professional environment. Two semesters or learning grammar and then two of "appreciating their literature" accomplishes very little if the desire to be fluent in the language.
I say get rid of language arts whatever that is and teach English literature and grammar. You learn to speak at home or on the play ground. You learn literature at school and by reading.
Get rid of social studies and teach real history and geography. There, I just saved people a lot of time and stopped wasting a kids chance at knowledge.

You're still giving them too much credit by planning a false-flag airliner shootdown. It's FAR more likely some higher-ups inbred nephew with a 70 IQ pushed the wrong button.
The part I can't get past is that they begin an air war but don't close their airspace.
Incompetence is always possible, but sometimes it's just too much to believe. Particularly when Iran remembers the Vincennes incident as an embarrassment for the US.
I'd still like to know how many other commercial flights were being allowed over Iran at the same time, but journalisming is hard.

Correct.
People who have no idea how the military works thinks chaos, fog of war, "friction" can all be controlled.
In truth, these Q-bert six-dimensional chess moves simply can't happen. Too much will go wrong. Simply moving a battalion from point A to point B is rarely easy or perfectly successful.
What happened is that the SAM battery was on high alert, waiting for the US bombers and when they got a blip, they took the shot because they figured they were going to be greased if they didn't.
Iran has 2nd-hand systems, terrible command and control because they promote based on loyalty, not competence.

That's because if they closed their airspace, they'd give up the element of surprise.
Maybe they tried to. Remember, there are parallel military organizations in Iran. You've got the regular services, the Revolutionary Guard and then the Quds Force, all of whom hate and distrust each other.

it is funny that i come out on the conspiracy team. I still think they
most likely did it on accident. But if you study Iranian terror, it is
possible they did it on purpose. Why do people think they are not up to
it? They have done this before. If they had never intentionally shot
down an airliner, that would be a different thing. Having us argue about
it is the best outcome they can have.
If they are serious about

Just walk through the process and you'll see how unlikely it is.
First, which plane? Second, which launcher?
Iran's air defenses aren't like ours. It appears to have been a tactical missile, so the individual operator may have taken the shot.
Alternatively, orders came down that the missiles were away and to go to full alert. So they did this and set the fire controls on automatic because the likely outcome was that any "blip" they saw was going to be a SEAD mission seeking to kill them all before the main strike.
At that point, transponders, flight paths, etc. mean nothing.
It's pretty basic stuff. The military side didn't even think about civilian air traffic because that's icky and dull. Their people are promoted for fanatical devotion to the cause, not actual intellect.

Also, "How dare they hide it all these years". When the family first got the car it was the wife's car and she used it to commute.
Steve McQueen was a great actor. He was also an asshole. The movie was great. Did you know that the guy driving the Charger in the movie was the same guy driving the car in "The Seven Ups" and " The French Connection,"? Bill Hickman.

Occam's Razor.
Which is more difficult?
Accidental shootdown, or carefully planned shootdown made to look like an accident?
Now look at the skill levels. Assuming they're completely amoral, American operators might be able to pull this off, but you'd have to ensure that the battery in question is fanatically loyal and doesn't screw it up (which is always a possibility).
That means that *one battery* is the best of the best, hand-picked and hand-placed, which no one will notice.
Or, they were just guys scared half to death who fired at the first thing that moved after the alert was sounded.
People are really overthinking things now.
Iran admitted it because they had to. We have the freaking film. There's a point to strategic lying, but remember that Iran still wants passenger air service.
If they continue to tell obvious lines, all airlines will pull out. They will be blockading themselves.

It is interesting that offers a marketplace of ideas and has tried to make government less intrusive on companies and individuals. Notice how SCARED this makes progressives.

Yea, they really are running low on options. If we had a real media it would have been reporting on the massive internal turmoil and crashing economy in Iran since Trump tore up the Iran deal and started whacking them with sanctions. Trump just throw them into further chaos by taking out the leader of their external chaos machine. And let's not forget, the majority of the people on that plane were either Iranians or of Iranian heritage. It's not just the outside world that is angry.
It hasn't been very well reported but there are some reports coming out of Iran that dozens of IRGC commanders loyal to Soleimani have been arrested over the last week. Stuff is going on below the surface that we aren't fully seeing yet.

Oddly enough, I looked up the full quote and that is exactly what Emerson goes on to say, ending with 'to be great is to be misunderstood':
"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. Speak what you think now in hard words, and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said to-day. -- 'Ah, so you shall be sure to be misunderstood.' -- Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood."
Gah!!!

The was on the bus when Jim Jones' madmen shot the congressman to death, along with several others, and she only made it out by the grace of G*d.

Any politician that uses the word wealth when talking about a taxation plan needs to be kicked in the mangina. Wealth is nothing more than income that has been saved (not consumed) so that it can be directed to future needs.
Politicians know NOTHING about future needs and spend everything they receive this year (plus some from the next 30 years) to pay for todays wants and desires.

I think the point is that you should change your mind when the facts change.
The Dems don't do that, though, they merely change their lies.
"Trump needs to be removed before the election!"
"No wait, not removing him is a genius move!"
"Akshually, this is all political!"
There's nothing but tactical flip-flops.
That's the opposite of what he's saying. I used to think modest gun control made sense because I was young, ignorant and raised in suburbia.
I since change that opinion based on facts (ironically facts I discovered while trying to *defend* gun control).
So I'm inconsistent, but in a good way.

I agree completely. People don't realize how automated, and deadly, modern weapons systems are. (like Russian made AA) They are Fire and Forget systems - all it takes is one idiot punching a button, and BOOM. I've read some say that this particular system could be set on auto, so the operators may not have even realized it was about to fire.
Letting the Iranians have weapons systems like this is like giving a room of five year old boys fully loaded AK-47's to play with. And then being surprised when someone gets shot.

One of the best bits of advice I've been told for those preparing a legal case is that you can't understand your own side until you make a very honest effort to defend the other side, to the best of your ability. Sometimes when one does that, you can find the holes in the other side. Sometimes one finds that the other sides case is stronger than your own.

Tomorrow of course you may know more than you do today, and may hesitate to contradict yourself, but that would be "foolish consistency."
