The blood of all 176 people is on the hands of Donald Trump.

I can't see why. His actions were not the proximate cause. Some slob fired a missile when he shouldn't have. He was the proximate cause.

Seriously? A fascist, theocratic regime that executes gays, and it's Trump's fault they shot down an airliner with a missile they bought from Russia? They can't tell a bomber from a flight path coming from a major airport?
Was MH17 his fault too? Jesus.
This takes the cake.

US is fascist corportocracy. https://153news.net/watch_video.php?v=U4KD7352UA2B
Not theocratic yet, but you never know what the Chabad Lubavitchers will do.

Let me add: Iran was in high alert and expected bombing campaigns from the US and Isreal any minute.
Israel has been using fake transponder codes to "appear friendly" a lot of times. They also used airliners as cover. This prompted Syria to upgrade their defence system to S-300. But most of Iran's system is probably less capable. US also has fake signature capabilities.
Bombing threat imminent. Big plane flies over in the dark... due to little training, you don't know what it is. Would you push that fire-button?
I read that Friendly Fire did most kills on US side in Iraq war.
