Having power over fellow humans, they forget they are humans and nothing more.

Hearing this news many residents in Iran celebrated but around the world terrorists didn't. He was named as 'butcher of Tehran'

Iranians be like: "Those are man-made fog from Israel"

Iranians are very happy as seen by their social media messages.

Funny how they called it ‘a hard landing’ when it literally is strewn across the side of a mountain 😂

My heartfelt sympathies go out to his widow.
Thats a lot of grief for a 12 year old to go through.

Weather's supposed to be nice tomorrow

Not the first time he went down on a chopper

[radicalcartoons]

Isn't it strange how the other two helicopters were unaffected by the bad weather? 🤔

He has at last found out whether it’s 72 virgins or 72 raisins.

Why were so many key Iranian officials travelling together on the same chopper? Why did the other two continue on without checking there was a missing chopper?

Justice has been served for Mahsa Amini.

"Hard Landing"? Iran maybe, in the rest of the world, it is called a crash.

[dougal]

Sorry Iran for the loss of the trees.

Boeing has gone to great length to deny that it was their helicopter, even wiki pages are edited.
