    Iran refuses to hand over airliner's black box: report

    Is it possible that this jet was shot down under the false assumption it was a retaliation against the Iranian missile attack on American forces in Iraq? Russia made the same mistake in 2014 when it shot down a Malaysian airliner thinking during heightened tensions with Ukraine. If nothing else, the optics on this incident are not good.

    So the Iranians might have downed down that jet?

    I thought, per the Dems and media though, that the Iranians were like doves to us as the great satan, that only we murder, per them, those peaceful leaders like that general!

    Pentagon says the plane was shot down. NY Times actually has a video that seems to show the missile impact.

    Which if true, is the reason Iran will not hand over the "black box". If the plane was shot down, the black box would show both engines operating normally until the missile impact, which would be a good thing for the Boeing Corporation.

    Yes, it immediately raised red flags in my mind once I saw they were not going to turn those over.

    Who wants to guess how likely it is that Iran will allow Ukranian officials to examine the crash area or pay reparations to the victims?

    Is there any depth to which Democrats will not sink?

    If Iran did shoot down the Ukrainian Airlines plane, "This is yet another example of collateral damage from the actions taken in a provocative way by the President of the United States, Barrack H. Obama, who did not send the agreement he made with the Iranians to the U.S. Senate for ratification as the Constitution requires".

    There, that's better - I am placing the blame for all this mess with the Iranians squarely where it belongs, right onto the shoulders of the worst President our nation has ever had - Barrack H. Obama!

    From what I heard on the radio a few minutes ago, Ukranian investigators are in Iran and are examining the black box, the crash scene, and airplane parts. Visas have been issued to Canadian officials.
