CanuckInUSA 0 #5 February 21, 2003 The plane went down in IMC. It was the pilots fault. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest #8 February 21, 2003 How convenient for Iran to blame the US. I don't suppose the fact that it was a Russian-made airplane and the fact that Iran borders Russia had anything to do with it."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

I'm sure, if we really look hard and use our imaginations, we can find out why, too. I mean, really examine our motives and where we, 20 years ago, sent supplies. Hey, I know, we can tie this to some administration, too. I mean, if we can even tenuously tie it to the downfall of the former Soviet Union, then we can say we destroyed a country, created serious economic difficulties, and because of that, it's our fault. Yes, I'm being facetious. But sadly, there will be some who think it is, somehow, our fault. I have been thinking about this whole kinda blame thing. Know what? It's a lot like the litigious society we live in right now. When harm comes to us, we search out deep pockets, whomever has the most $$, and then throw the blame at them. It never really has anything to do with who really is at fault...only who can pay. I am not surprised.

" If that is the case, they must think that the 'Great Satan' has very long arms indeed.....LOL I don't think anyone with half a brain cell would take such a claim seriously. It does seem to be stirring up a 'they said what? grrr" type reaction though....
