It looks to me like a surface to air missile shot the plane down and the timing of it certainly fits. It's all conjecture but I could see the possibility of an Iranian SAM battery shooting down the 737 mistaking it for a U.S. B-52/B-1B (yeah, he'd have to be a rookie) while on alert for a U.S. retaliation for Iran's missile attack basically minutes earlier. Who knows. 176 people got smoked. That much is certain.

Washington wants us to believe Iran shot the plane out of the sky before the investigation has begun. They've put Canada's Prime Minister out in front saying it blatantly in televised address. UK Foreign Minister is backing him up, also televised. BoJo made the claim in writing. US is using an 'unnamed officials' in the media to say 2 Russian SAMs fired by Iran hit the plane.
No evidence has been cited.
No intelligence agencies have been named.

they always admitted it. think about how low key country leaders were handling it. the US has got satellites over iran 24/7. instead of trump tweeting shit about iran at 4am, you got trump saying something bad happened in iran at 9am. its most likely iran sent out unofficial cables saying it was them as soon as it happened and they would be looking into it.
US, Canada shared Intel to their partners BUT won't publish "evidence" and won't share it with the main countries - Iran and Ukraine - leading the investigation of the crash pic.twitter.com/lPtn1X6t8R

Is this the type of "intelligence" the US threatened to withold from their strategic partners if they dared to buy 5G gear from Huawei?
