NOURNEWS - Late last night, Thursday, july 23, the interception of an Airbus A310 passenger plane of Mahan Air on the Tehran-Beirut route number 1152 by two fighters injured a number of passengers due to the rapid change of the plane.
The pilot of the Iranian plane announced that after contacting the pilots of the two fighters, they introduced themselves as US forces at CENTCOM.
The U.S. military has denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating "Similar, baseless allegations concerning Iran's intelligence have been made more than once."
Bill Urban, a spokesman for the CENTCOM terrorist organization, said that the F-15 fighter had carried out a visual inspection of Iran's Mahan passenger plane during its routine air mission near the Al-Tanf base in Syria!
Although Airbus Mahan left for the Islamic Republic after evacuating its passengers at Beirut airport and landed at Imam Khomeini Airport a few hours later, the purpose of this provocative behavior by American terrorists is still unclear and there are doubts in this regard.
One plausible hypothesis about this dangerous move by American fighters is that they intend to carry out "Operation Sutter."
Although not yet certain, given the history of such behavior by American and Zionist fighters, it seems that the American fighters, with malicious intent, deliberately flew near the Iranian passenger plane in order to deceive Syrian air defense mistakenly shoot down the passenger plane.
This is an example of the same operation that Israeli fighter jets carried out on a Russian Ilyushin 20 aircraft, which was targeted by the Syrian defense system.
Of course, in the case of last night, the Iranian pilot of Mahan Airbus, with his skill, ingenuity and the right decision to reduce the altitude quickly, prevented the Iranian plane from being targeted by the Syrian defense, and the sinister plan of the Americans was foiled.
But in any case; The conduct of fighter jets in relation to Flight 1152 of Mahan Airlines and disturbing a passenger aircraft in the skies of a third country is not only condemned as a terrorist act by the world public opinion but also a clear violation of aviation security and violation of the principle of civil liberties according to The 1944 Chicago Convention.
Obviously, as Seyed Abbas Mousavi, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iran, also announced; After examining the details of this incident and completing the information, the necessary political and legal measures will be taken.
It seams; Trump administration is under double pressure from domestic public opinion due to its inability to contain crises such as the corona outbreak, anti-racist protests, widespread unemployment, trade failure in international competition, especially in the face of China, and so on got dangerous confusion in important decisions.
The remarks and actions of Trump, Pompeo, and White House advisers these days are more a result of strategic error than a result of strategic rationality, and could further challenge Trump's shaky position both within the United States and internationally.
