Iran announces arrests over downing of plane that killed 176

11. Yeah, this just has a shitty feeling to it.

I mean, unless there is something more and for some reason a rogue group purposely shot it down using some half-baked rational. Although, that seems unlikely and I don't think there is anything that suggests that.

I disagree that Trump has nothing to do with this, though. I'm not saying he is to blame for this and everyone else is a victim of him, but rather that he shares at some of the blame. As in, he is a contributing factor to everything that lead up to this. This goes all the way back to him trashing the Iran deal in his quest to get rid of anything that Obama did. Without Trump the chances of us getting to the situation we were/are in with Iran would be a lot smaller. Again, this isn't saying Iran is innocent or isn't also responsible. They played just as much of a role in this too, and their ultimate decisions when it came to how they handled their air defense falls squarely on them.
