S. They say they mistakenly identified the. Line as a hostile target taylor recaps how it all unfolded. This week has shown more than that tragically its the average man is the victim of political wars amid tensions not seen in decades terror on and washington have been engaged in a war of the Iranian Regime is aggression in the region must stand now weve told the Iranian Regime enough. To really revenge and the ultimate response by regional nations is when america is expelled from this region iran must and its support for terrorism will and you know what the pentagon and the military counted as terrorists the United States will immediately impose additional punishing economic sanctions on the Iranian Regime the United States rage an economic war against iran the United States has to come to its senses but the chances of this not as uptick not as twitter predicted when the hashtag while it will 3 start to try dying was close to 0 and sure enough on monday we saw the Iranian Military hit to us at bases in iraq with missile strikes to iran it was seeking vengeance for washingtons assassination of it top command cussen simon e in a drone strike and backed out just a few days.

S. Warplanes so within 10 seconds a decision was taken to launch missiles at the target according to teheran a fatal example of human error. Its may not be that i take full responsibility and i will obey whatever decision is taken i would prefer to die rather than witness such an incident the admission of guilt has been followed by an apology a promise to upgrade Defense Systems to prevent another such tragedy a transparent investigation and compensation for victims relatives and the prosecution of the responsible person as it makes these pledges though to ron has also encouraged certain others to consider that roles in this disaster and how it is that we came to this moment the day preliminary conclusions of internal investigation by armed forces human error a time of crisis caused by use adventurism lead to disaster i would prefer regrets apologies and condolences to our people to the families of victims and to other affected nations as questions are asked as fingers are pointed as more sanctions are imposed its not politicians but those who boarded that fateful flight on wednesday who ultimately paid the price. A vigil for the victims has been held to me a rainy and capital to around where the tragedies lead to both grief and anger people theyd flowers next to photos of the victims and it candles for those who died well asked a number of analysts for their thoughts on the catastrophe and how it was able to happen. In time so for and the so called for go for unfortunately the reasonable. Yet able to pierce this fog unless the reason the conflicting mechanism so again one can talk about blame and responsibility or accountability the blame is iranian but the responsibility lies on other shoulders too so iranian Defense Systems were on alert and they were expecting attacks by us planes as stated in the armed forces the statement there have been reports that some hostile objects flying objects have been appearing on radar screens in some of some parts around the country so soon as they saw a plane coming to a sensitive i.

We had specific emanation information on an imminent threat and those threats trim included attacks on the u. S. Embassies what is your definition of the internet. This was going to happen and american lives were at risk the Intelligence Community is not flawless we we get it wrong in this case the Intelligence Community got it fundamentally right there was an imminent attack that was active plotting is that right now gone with sort of mollycoddle threats are never going. So the moneys assassination has sparked protests among his supporters both in the middle east and in the u. S.

S. To step up its charge against iran and escape with more pain reports that a lucrative Defense Industry deals at stake 6. There was compelling intelligence reasons of an imminent threat to respond i trust the intelligence assessment of whats on the neo is doing the kinds of actions he was preparing for i take it at face value what he is saying and secretary pompei oh this was a preamp the defensive measure now these are supposed to be just random smart people who are going to help us understand the situation except there arent a lot of them have a particular financial interest in a specific outcome essentially theyre tied to corporations that make profits from war the usa and iran go head to head theyll get a pretty nice payout and the viewers are kept in the dark about these ties the world is on edge since the u.
