#7  If it's not human error there are only 2 alternatives:

1) Human intent. It was done on purpose.

2) ALIENS!!!

#6  Ukraine also sells military equipment. Perhaps the Ukrainians want to trade forgiving "blood money" for a juicy set of contracts from the Mad Mullahs...? Quid pro quo...

#4  What the heck? They have as good a chance of getting money from Iran as they do clawing back what Sniffles Biden took.

#2  Trump had explicitly threatened Iran with retaliation in case of an attack on US forces.

When the Iranian attack happened the US stood down however, while Iran downed the Ukrainian plane.

If there had been any US military action in Iranian air space the blame would have fallen on the US, notwithstanding the facts.
