Was the helicopter crash that killed Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi an assassination or an accident?
Considering current events, people will be tempted to call it an assassination and that certainly can’t be ruled out. But Israel has previously targeted imminent threats, IRGC terror operatives and scientists working on weapons research. Hitting top political figures appears unlikely. And politically inconvenient.
Raisi headed a faction that was more aggressive, but also less prone to playing diplomatic games with D.C. If the Iranian government undergoes a change, it may produce a leadership that will at least pretend to negotiate with the Biden administration while building up its nuclear weapons program. And I doubt Israel prefers that.
The CIA and the Biden administration? They couldn’t figure out how to change a lightbulb let alone have the guts and the know-how to pull something like this off.
If it’s an assassination, the likeliest suspects would be within Iran’s own political snakepit where the stakes are high and the players are ruthless. Raisi was potentially in line to become the Supreme Leader and he’d been playing hardball with members of another faction. It’s not impossible that it escalated, but also out of character. Iran’s political players usually denounce and destroy each other using the system.
The last year has been unprecedented, but Occam’s Razor still holds.
If you’re flying in a chopper that predates the Iranian revolution (and whose only parts can be obtained on the black market or from Chinese ripoff artists) into heavy fog along mountainous terrain, the likeliest explanation for a crash is not an international conspiracy.
Hopefully it means that chaos will reign supreme in Iran and the people will rise up to overthrow the dictatorship of mullahtariat. On the other hand, it’s more likely, the ignorant masses will blame Israel.
HES DEAD JIM
I thought how it’s not dissimilar to Kobe Bryant’s helicopter crash. I just did an internet search, and I’m not alone.
Most likely bad weather. Helicopter pilots shouldn’t fly in weather like that.
Finally, the depraved psychopathic murderous berserk Iranian regime is being decapitated. …
by itself.
The depraved Iranian Islamic Ayatollah leadership should have been decapitated a long time ago.
Ay least this is a good start.
That depends on the mission. Our motto in Medivac was “Anytime for any reason for anybody”. We had to go out, coming back we were on our own
I was a tanker in the Army. The 2 guys you wanted to be your freinds were the cook and the medic.
Thank you for putting yourself in harms way for us. Your service was and is appreciated very much by us combat arms idiots.
Devine intervention. I think we’re entering into a strange time. Armageddon?
It is a conspiracy. It was the same mountain that attacked Kobe Bryant and Stevie Ray Vaughan’s helicopters. No doubt the mountain was on CIA payroll
Who blew up the imam’s helicopter? Probably the same spooks who blew up the Nord Stream pipeline. Surely, they had a F.I.S.A. warrant.
“Remember that all through history, there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they seem invincible. But in the end, they always fall. Always.” -Mahatma Gandhi
.+….But in the end, they always fall. Always.”
Memento mori.
Yeah, Gandhi had his own rather disgusting flaws. People quote him, I know.
He was a sicko but lefties get hacked off when you tell them about his weird perversions.
No. They don’t always fall.
Incomplete analysis. Look at where this happened, close to the Azerbaijan border. Azerbaijan supports Israel, and is friendly to the West while also maintaining close relations with Iran. The geography is ideal for a surreptitious attack, being highly isolated and far from Iranian forces. I’m not saying that means it was an assassination but it’s an interesting aspect to consider.
“If you’re flying in a chopper that predates the Iranian revolution (and whose only parts can be obtained on the black market or from Chinese ripoff artists) into heavy fog along mountainous terrain, the likeliest explanation for a crash is not an international conspiracy.”
Yeah, that was my first guess. I seriously doubt Iranian pilots are worth a shit, either. That’s one of those countries where the worst people are promoted over qualified people. Kind of like here in the US.
Let’s just call it DELAYED KARMA!!
If you know anyone knowledgeable about Bell helicopters like the one Raising was in, ask them to explain what the “Jesus bolt” is.
It’s not a bolt – we called the Jesus Nut and am not a Christian
Yes, the Jesus Nut. I stand corrected. Thanks.
Jesus busted a nut? 🙂
Or, ….
Iran blames China Joe and his cronies and in the interest of peace China Joe borrows more money from China (or prints it) and gives billions more to Iran! If this sound ridiculous look what Islam Obama and China Joe have already given to Iran and Islam.
in means less haji filth on the planet!

When I read about that helicopter crash, I thought og a thriller I read, years ago, Robert Moss and Arnaund de Borchgrave’s Monimbo. One charecter iis a drug kingpin who is in the bad graces of the Mafia, the CIA, and the KGB. Not surprisingly, he gets blown up on his yacht.
It’s not a total loss. Raisi’s shredded carcass would make pretty good dog food.
Allah was his copilot. Just not a very good one.
Most likely a bomb. Wouldn’t take much to bring down an ancient Bell 212. Place it near the fuel tank, detonate by remote control. This isn’t rocket science, people.
what does his death mean , ?? it means he is now in hell along with all who reject christ as saviour awaiting his final sentence , will it make a difference in iran ?? no . anyone who believes islam will eventually follow suit . it will make no difference to the regime as there are plenty to fill the void . iran has a long line of murderers waiting in the wings . satan has plenty of converts be they muslim or otherwise , american campuses a prime example being led by none other than liar in chief dementia joe and his band of miscreants and sexual perverts . absolutely no one will avoid giving an account of themselves to god regardless of who they are . the leaders of islam have a special place booked just for them , no virgins , no paradise and no relief . its eternal which is to say it never ends . hell is no sleepover .!!
