(WatchDogNews.org) – According to reports, US intelligence officials are “confident” that Iran is responsible for a Ukrainian jetliner’s crash.
BREAKING: The Ukrainian jetliner was shot down by two Russian made surface to air missiles (SA-15), according to a US official familiar with the intelligence. The U.S. saw Iranian radar signals lock onto the jetliner, before it was shot down.

On Wednesday, the Ukrainian International Airlines crashed in Iran, killing all 176 people on board. The crash came mere hours after Iran shot missiles into Iraq, targeting bases housing US troops.
According to intelligence officials, US satellites detected two surface-to-air missile launches moments before the plane exploded. Video taken before the crash appears to show the plane on fire before it hit the ground.
Iran has reportedly recovered the black boxes from the crash site but will not allow anyone to access them. The country is also refusing to allow Boeing access to the investigation.
Of course, Democrats are already blaming Trump for the terrorism perpetrated by Iran. Liberal presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg said as much on Twitter:
Innocent civilians are now dead because they were caught in the middle of an unnecessary and unwanted military tit for tat.
My thoughts are with the families and loved ones of all 176 souls lost aboard this flight. https://t.co/zWaVgWxfdL

Even on a day like this, Trump Derangement Syndrome is alive and festering.
