Funny thing about the video of the shootdown

Are you suggesting that at the moment of the impact, there were millions of video toting Iraqis pointing their cameras at the sky?

Because in Russia, EVERY car has a dash cam.

That night, many people were pointing their cameras at the sky. I watched a live stream in Iran. It was pointing at the sky.

If you are near or in the middle of war with rockets launching at the sky, what's the first thing you do?

Suspend flights leaving an international airport? Suspend all incoming flights?

Who is in charge of their military Colonel Klink?

Because it's 2020 and Iranians don't live in a third world cesspool of mud huts and garbage?

They have cell phones. They also have internet and wifi.

We need to remedy that.

It was daylight and one plane had already impacted.

Tehran has 9 million people do you honestly beleive in the day of everyone taking selfies and videos (way worse than back in 911) that there is anythingremoely abnormal about this? Heck I am rather surprised there arent more

And yet millions didn't catch the missile on camera. Odd.

And yet, only fifty caught the meteor on camera. Nice, round number. Convenient.
 
This has got to be one of the dumbest threads in a while. The fact that multiple people are agreeing with it too makes my head hurt.

He wasn't tracking the missle. He was focused on the exact point of impact.

He saw the middle, got his camera out, saw the trajectory while doing so, saw the obvious target, and filmed it.

Doesn't anyone think it's funny that somebody had their camera facing in just the right direction when this meteor was in the sky?



Bit of a coincidence, doncha think?

Nope. That meteor was obviously sent by the Lizard people as part of a Socialist Deep State plot to kill White Christian Americans.
 
I find it very unlikely that just as this person comes across this scenic and calming ocean, he also happens to have a camera. Weird.

Thhere's no way he could see the target. He had to already know it was there.

How often do you video the night sky waiting for an aircraft to get hit with a SAM?
Click to expand...

Me personally I don't film much of anything. However if I was in a place that had regular rocket attacks and saw a missile heading towards a target I would probably pull my phone out also.

So someone told him that the only flight out of Iran that night was going to be hit?

The Imam Khomeini Airport doesn't have regular rocket attacks.

And this one got a perfect shot of the Ukraine aircrafts getting flamed. Are you saying it was coincidence?

Are you over 70 and do not have a smartphone?
 
apdst said:
The video was shot about 8-10 miles away, at night. What are the odds that some random dude, with a video camera is going to be videoing that exact spot, at the exact moment the missile impacted the aircraft?

Video shows the moment a missile hit the Ukrainian jet

given the videos shot it would not be surprising they had missiles launch shortly before and people may have been recording anticipating another launch.


Not sure if iran took out the airline or not, at this point it looks like iran is unsure if they did or not, in reality though things like this have happened plenty of times before, the us took out an iranian airline, in the soviet union it was a common mistake as bombers and transport aircraft are similar in radar signature, and there was the whole thing with the airline shot down over ukraine, whether it was russia or ukraine neither side would ever admit it but it was a known issue in that region especially with airlines and transport and airborne all being the same aircraft.


Also to note iran claimed they hacked us communications, very doubtful however jamming them would be a high possibility, which would also lead to the assumption they jammed civilian radar radio etc. Now imagine calling out an airline with no response to identify or anything and being shot down only to realize you jammed all of everyones comms as part of the missile strike, meaning even the civilian airline could not tell you what they were.

No, he was videoing before the missile impacted. You'll notice it took about 10 seconds for the report to reach the camera's mic, which means he was about 10 miles away.

Sound travels at about 1100fps and sea level at 80F so a 10 second delay would equate to about 2 miles.
