Iran claims foul play in plane crashes
 Iran has said it had information that the United States, Britain and Israel had a role in two deadly military plane crashes in the last two months.
| That's be agents 96, 009, and Aleph-41, of course. It's usually them. |
It was the latest accusation by Tehran against the West in their sharpening confrontation. A day earlier, Iran blamed the United States and Britain for two bombings that killed at least nine people in the southwestern city of Ahvaz. Interior Minister Mostafa Pourmohammadi told reporters on the sidelines of a police seminar that "the information we have says that the US, Britain and Israel's intelligence agents intended to create insecurity in Iran".
"Even my evaluation says that the crash of our C-130 and Falcon planes was done by their design, or maybe electronic interference."
| Employed the old Zionist death ray, did they? That figures. We're insidious that way... |
| ... all that money we gave Halliburton, we should get something for it ... |
Pourmohammadi did not elaborate and did not give any evidence.
| There is no evidence. The witnesses are all dead. |
In early January, an Iranian military flight carrying a commander of the country's elite Revolutionary Guards and 10 others crashed while trying to make an emergency landing, killing all aboard.
| Yeah, that was a good 'un. Took over the controls using a secretly implanted device with no serial numbers and crashed it. The secretly implanted device known as a "gizmo" self-destructed on impact. |
On 6 December 2005, a military transport plane crashed into a 10-storey building near Tehran's Mehrabad airport, killing 115 people. The plane, a US-made C-130, had suffered engine trouble and the pilot was returning to the airport when the aircraft suddenly lost altitude and slammed into the apartment building. Most of the passengers were Iranian journalists.
| That was a similar device, of course. It's known as a "thingummy," and it's less than two inches long. Placed anywhere near an aircraft engine, it causes it to fail on command, then slurps all the aerodynamic characteristics out of the plane, replacing them with those of a brick. It can be operated from a ground station or from outer space. Naturally, it self-destructs on impact. |
| Do not tell them about widgits ... |
