Hey Josephus,

"From a Middle Eastern Watcher, closer to the facts"
Just took a quick look.

I don't see Erica Kasraie as an impartial Iranian source.
Her family fled Iran in 1979 with the ousting of the Shah.
I see her as being more supportive of US and Jewish interests.

I see her as more of a government asset involved in the overthrow of the Iranian government in support of US and Israeli interests.

Not sure if she's Jewish, she might be a Christian-Zionist, aka 'useful idiot'.

Her YouTube Channel 'About' page.
http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_yckcKK1s2TUn7XXDlaSNw/about

"Erica and her family fled to Italy shortly after the 1979 Islamic Revolution."

Her Bio
http://www.linkedin.com/in/erica-kasraie-75839721

Interesting career right from the beginning, look at it.
As a 'Biologist' she was part of the Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical Center (TEDAC) FBI Laboratory

- It's this 'Jude Project' thing that looks out of place to me on her resume.
http://www.judeproject.org/
Why did she go there? (after she went to Israel)
Bio says 'Cultivate strategic relationships'

Google search 'Erica Kasraie Jewish'
Article: CIS historical trip to Israel, January and February 2012

"Amir Fakhravar, Research Fellow at the Institute of world Politics and President of the Confederation of Iranian Students (CIS) and the Iranian Freedom Institute (IFI), along with Erica Kasraie, CIS spokesperson, were in Israel for a week on January and February 2012, speaking with Israeli high government officials, members of parliament and opinion makers."

"Saghar Erica Kasraie is a member and spokesperson of the group."

* She's certainly involved in regime change operations by use of civil society groups and organising student protesting.
This is certainly part of the regime-change script.

Next time you post something Josephus, make sure you know WHAT you're posting.
- I'll check it.

Maybe you should go check my links.

Yes Armchair Critic, I see you are a supporter of Hezbollah, screwing down against Iranian citizens desire for freedom of Islamic Shariah.
You need to be watched by National Security as your views support an outlawed terrorist group.

Dear Shadow Minister,

You wrote; “Qasem Soleimani never assisted in the overthrow of the taliban”

What a bald faced lie. Why do you do this? Why can't we debate the issue using facts rather than you blurting out garbage unsubstantiated by facts?

Even the Israeli newspapers like Haaretz acknowledges Soleimani's role in assisting the US in Afghanistan. For instance;

“when the U.S. invaded Afghanistan after the September 11, 2001 terror attacks, Iranian officials – on Soleimani’s orders – gave American representatives a map of Taliban bases to target in Afghanistan.”

Sure he was not above using Sunni Jihadists on occasion to achieve objectives just as the US did against the Soviets in Afghanistan, but Shiite Iran had little time for the Taliban and actively assisted the US even after Bush's ill-fated axis of evil comments.

For Pence to try and tie him to 9/11 was just ludicrous.

However Soleimani and the Iranians desperately wanted to get the US out of Iraq and it looks like it may well happen now given the assassination.

“Iraq's prime minister, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, told Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in a phone call Thursday to send a U.S. delegation to Iraq to negotiate the withdrawal of U.S troops, according to a statement released Friday by the Iraqi leader.”

There now seems now to be no doubt at all that the Ukraine passenger plane was brought down by an Iranian missile, deliberately or accidentally.

Hey ttbn,
I haven't looked at reports but even if this is indeed the case;
Then there could still be a few explanations as to what happened.

If the plane was indeed hit by an Iranian missile for example;
Then it may have been deliberate, accidental or possibly even sabotage.
Their Pansir missile system (if that's what it was) might've been hacked by outside actors with sophisticated hacking tools with a backdoor into the Russian defense system for example or it might've occurred by the deliberate action of a rogue operator.
Things are so complicated these days.

What kind of twisted logic is it that because I don't support the (Pro-Israel) Neoconservative US foreign policy regime change goals, which themselves support Israeli foreign policy interests; (and of which are proven to be religious in nature;
and that I don't support any of this political correct / identity politics / hate speech /anti-semitic crap that you're all pedaling;

What kind of twisted logic is it that because I don't support all this Pro-Zionist CRAP,
- that I would automatically be aligned with some other equally undesireable CRAP?

I approach arguments on their own merits.

I don't support nations undermining and pillaging other countries.
Iran's got more than enough natural wealth on it's own that it doesn't need anything from others.
It's the others who are the aggressors, and it's all part of a strategic plan.
