Sounds like the crash of the Polish plane a number years back, killing half the government, where Russia was definitely "not" involved.
I mean I hate the shit out of Israel and the US but this ain't it. Israel has nothing at all to gain from doing something like this and turning the figurehead (who doesn't actually present a material loss for Iran) into a martyr. This does everything to weaken opposition to the Irani regime and strengthen said regime and nothing to give Israel an advantage in their conflict with them.
Martyr to who? He's known as the Butcher of Tehran for a reason. There are plenty of Iranians celebrating.
His supporters? I mean he has to have those or the regime would've collapsed long ago.
It's not like his supporters are the people of Iran.
Anyway, a Turkish drone IDed the crash site finally. Soon we'll see how many cry and how many celebrate.
