- I do take umbrage with your statement "a nation whose only crime is resisting our expansionist claims on their sovereignty".... puh-lease. Economic sanctions are about the only politically correct means we have of protesting their development of nuclear weapons.

- You didn't read far enough into the article; they ARE blaming it on the US, indirectly:
"Roth reports that Iran has complained that its aviation safety is compromised by U.S. and international trade sanctions. The U.S. sanctions prevent Iran from updating American aircraft bought before the 1979 Islamic revolution and make it difficult to get European spare parts or planes as well." - Reply to this comment

- Some of the comments on this site convince me more than ever that America is morally bankrupt, and stupid to boot. My heart goes out to the families of the dead aboard this flight, and the rest of you can go to the devil, you freaking morons. And yes, America is to blame when they shut down trade with a nation whose only crime is resisting our expansionist claims on their sovereignty, thus creating economic hardships for innocent peoples.

Lets see now; When this country had 9/11 and we lost all those souls.
This news agency showed the Irainians dancing is the street and celibrating the death of the innocent.
The Iranian regime was the FIRST to condemn the 9/11 attacks, while Benjamin Netnayahu said the attacks were "good for Israel".

- hungry and DaVicar - in a way it is. If the more moderate had "won" the election, there would have been a chance that the country MAY have come to its senses and sanctions would have been lifted, thereby making it possible for them to buy Boeing or Airbus.
and hungry - I know ahmadinejad doesn't care about the US citizens, but probably has an affinity for his own.
