A few of the replies to my tweet show that some don't understand how the Tor M1 works. The warhead is behind the nose cone in the Tor M1. Missile doesn't hit the plane, a proximity fuse in the nose cone triggers the warhead behind it to explode. That is why the nose cone survived https://t.co/MUQNgly4fD — PolitiTweet.org

Iran is using a bulldozer at the #Ukrainian flight #PS752 crash site, likely destroying evidence before investigators finish. If hit by a #missile then this is a crime scene. Yet another example of either extraordinary incompetence or a blatant cover-up by #Iran. #IranPlaneCrash https://t.co/KVp4S9s5kT — PolitiTweet.org

More evidence the photo of a fragment of the #missile that hit flight #PS752 is from #Iran. The photo was taken in Parand, Iran. Here is a photo I found from Parand showing the city has similar drainage ditches to the one in which the missile fragment was found. #IranPlaneCrash https://t.co/T2BqGigFEY — PolitiTweet.org

The video proof that #Iran was responsible for downing #Ukrainian International Airlines Flight 752 with a missile. The regime is in crazy propaganda mode now (as usual) claiming that it's all a conspiracy. How long will they try to deny what happened? https://t.co/mbwH7gXTlW — PolitiTweet.org

Iran and #UkrainianAirlines should read more. @jongambrellAP wrote about the possibility of #Iran mistaking airliners for warplanes back in May, 2019. Entirely avoidable tragedy brought about by Iranian regime incompetence. #Ukrainian #UkrainianPlaneCrash https://t.co/JgaqdrJJEE — PolitiTweet.org

That #Iran didn't close its airspace to commercial flights after it launched missiles and put its air defense on high alert is yet another example of how extraordinarily incompetent these authoritarian regimes are. #UkrainianPlaneCrash https://t.co/waR8kvMtgx — PolitiTweet.org

A US spy satellite picked up signs of a missile launched in #Iran before the #Ukrainian 737 crashed near #Tehran. More evidence to support my tweet yesterday that Iran was responsible for the downing of the plane. https://t.co/2CFq3OyOsr — PolitiTweet.org

Iran likely downed a #Ukrainian Boeing 737 near #Tehran last night by mistake when their air defense was on alert for US airstrikes. Video of plane burning in the sky, bullet or shrapnel holes in the plane, 176 killed. #Iran refuses to turn over the black box flight recorder... https://t.co/GDaa8eK6Qz — PolitiTweet.org

Iran is weak. An economy wrecked by years of sanctions. A revolt since Nov. 15 with protesters destroying hundreds of banks and attacking dozens of military bases. There was always zero chance of #Iran responding to the death of #Soleimani in a way that risked war right now. https://t.co/Kcy9sRZODQ — PolitiTweet.org

#Iran is in ridiculous propaganda mode - Iranian State media is reporting that al-Asad airbase was leveled and 30 American soldiers killed. In reality, zero American soldiers were killed, though there are some Iraqi casualties. #Iraq #IranvsUSA #IranAttacks — PolitiTweet.org

While nobody knows what #Bolton will say if he testifies, keep in mind that the #Ukraine investigation began on Sept. 9 when three House committees requested information about #Trump's July phone call with Ukraine. Bolton resigned the next day. He knew enough to leave quickly... https://t.co/hlq4cLOn3n — PolitiTweet.org

Was General Seely's letter about our forces leaving #Iraq really a mistake? Or was it a signal to the Iraqi government to watch what it says because we could always withdraw forces and leave all those Iraqi government officials at the mercy of militias and protesters? https://t.co/fuW5ra2cwA — PolitiTweet.org

I agree with the decision to kill #Soleimani but be honest here. We all know when details emerge about the "imminent" attack they'll be underwhelming and not proportionate to assassinating the 2nd most powerful figure in #Iran. I know that and I still support the airstrike on him — PolitiTweet.org

The administration isn't giving details about "imminent" attacks planned by #Soleimani because they were the rocket attacks a few days ago. Killing Soleimani didn't prevent the rocket attacks and killing him was a disproportionate response to a few rockets fired at our Embassy. https://t.co/IlfUpWZ6kK — PolitiTweet.org

Secretary of State #Pompeo said #Soleimani was planning an "imminent" attack on diplomats and facilities. His focus on past deeds and no details on the "imminent" threat speaks volumes. It's clear that the "imminent" attack was planning to fire a few rockets at our Embassy. https://t.co/hGJcr2X5mC — PolitiTweet.org

Iran won't risk retaliating for the death of #Soleimani at any level that risks flipping US policy towards #Iran from containment to regime change. They will attack some US facilities and personnel using proxy forces or terrorist attacks, but will hold back to avoid escalation. https://t.co/5YxwhZmfHD — PolitiTweet.org

Don't be fooled by #Iran claiming they already replaced #Soleimani. Due to corruption, nepotism, their education system, etc., Iran has a shortage of capable leaders. When one is killed it's a loss for them and in this case likely to be historically significant. #SoleimaniKilled — PolitiTweet.org
