    Listen to Putin in the last couple sentences. I am assuming this was weather but now some doubt has crept in. The way he uses the word true

    Agree . The use of the word " true , " means not only finding the cause , but also stand with Iran as a consequence . It is of course a matter of internal politics , regards to what may or may not be revealed . But I think like so many incidents in the past , where Iranians were killed in Syria , or when facilities were damaged , that Iran leadership made a mistake of hiding the cause . The people then can not be mobilised and react to these threats . The latest incident was the attack on Isfahan , a possible EMP attack . Nothing was said , and the media used distraction methods to divert attention . Of course if the Iranian people are kept in the dark , then the enemy will become emboldened and carry out ever more rampant attacks . Iranian people are in a state of extreme religious hysteria , induced and elective delusion and mass psychosis and this is encouraged by the religious leadership and media . They are kept in the dark , allowing the few to rule .

    Khamenei is part of Azeri. That's why he bumped Raisi

    I remember watching a TV broadcast in the UK , with some political commentators discussing how to defeat Iran . They were white British reporters and journalists or politicians . One way they considered in defeating Iran , was to carry out assassinations against Iranian Ayatollahs ! But they quickly abandoned the idea , saying that this plan would not work , as there were too many of them !

    This is the problem with having power concentrated in the hands of one man or a few people . Take one out and there is chaos . Now there will be a race for the top job . Great anxiety among the right wing supporters of their lost champion . But such losses would not be a problem in a democratic system , no possibility of achieving a political advantage through assassinations of leaders or influencing unduly the political sphere through bribery or duress .

    The support for this pseudo- religious extremist right wing and dictatorial apparatus among the Iranians does extend mainly to the wealthy and the zealots . They have support from the rural areas , but altogether no more than 20% of the population . This was confirmed by the recent voting turnout . In Tehran only 15 to 20% turnout reported . The Islamic republic no longer legitimate to form government .

    However with 20% support of Tehran's adult population , coming out on the street , we still get an impressive crowd . However this is no indication of the legitimacy and should not be used as such . I regret the prevailing political culture among Iranians . Especially now these extremist supporters of what is now a defunct and exclusive political system . A system formalizing political killing and injustice and oppression , dressed up as religious and moral fortitude .

    They elevate an individual to the degree of sainthood and burying them on the grounds of holy Shia shrine ( where their grave will be safe from vandalism ) . An individual responsible for political killings and shooting and blinding demonstrators and protecting members of the security services , responsible for distributing poison gas in girl's primary schools . The corrupt of the Earth , dressed as saints . I do not like the political culture of Iranian people .

    No

    https://en.mehrnews.com/news/215885/Iran-Armed-Forces-release-2nd-report-on-Raeisi-copter-crash


    Apparently this report is pointing the finger at the pilot ! This means : ( 1 ) Pilot had heart attack . ( 2 ) Pilot made an error . ( 3 ) Pilot did not make an error ! Amazing revelations , never thought they would reveal the cause , let alone THIS cause ! What are they saying , the Armed forces of Iran ?
