Sounds like Iran's anti aircraft is good for passenger jets.

I don't think Hunter ever actually went to Ukraine. He was so talented that he didn't need to actually be there to earn his $83K a month. If he had to show up then he would have had to be paid double.

Well that was kind of snide. You don't reckon the Biden's would be dealing with an enemy country? Would you? Even if a lot of money were involved? You have absolutely no evidence of wrongdoing. As Obama once said "not a scintilla".

Early reports are often wrong. Early reports from Middle Eastern sources say it was brought down by anti-aircraft fire. We may know more tomorrow.
Be not weary in well doing.

Just imagine if a bunch of the 'heavies' in Iran were getting their families (or selves) out of town for a while.
