Iran crash live updates: President Ebrahim Raisi dead in helicopter crash, state media says


Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi along with Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and other officials died in a helicopter crash in the country’s East Azerbaijan province, Iran’s state-run Press TV reported. The chopper crashed Sunday in thick fog, and search teams struggled for hours in mountainous terrain and poor weather. The deaths of some of the country’s top leaders come at a time of turmoil in the wider region, as the war in Gaza has escalated tensions.

A total of nine people, including Iranian officials and crew members, were killed in the crash, according to Sabreen News, a media organization affiliated with Iranian-backed militias.

Did he have a .45 caliber hole in his head like Ron Brown? (whose plane  supposedly crashed in fog)

Add to that where the survivors suddenly died after being rescued.

With the way things are today it would be no problem for three, thirty or three thousand terrorists to cross our border with the weapons and take out all three copters...of course they would have no reason to take out Joe since he is effectively playing on their team.

Unless of course, they tried to cross from Canada...

I think it's telling that Blinken didn't say that it's the normal course of diplomacy but used business instead which is a very accurate description of the Obiden relationship with Iran.

Did the US express "condolences" when murderous monsters Stalin and Mao died? Or when Kim I and Kim II died? I don't actually know, but Raisi was a murderous monster.

Will Joe represent the USA at His funeral. And as a further sign of good will hand the Iatolla's the keys to a C-130 loaded with pallets of cash?

Send Kamala to cackle her way through the ceremony.

Could this be an Israeli hitjob?

Could this be an Israeli hitjob?

It could also be an inside job. There are many Iranians who he murdered and their remaining families hate him.

Biden Begins Speech By Thanking Iran President Ebrahim Raisi For Coming

The Babylon Bee
May 21, 2024

DETROIT — While delivering a speech at a local campaign event, President Joseph R. Biden thanked Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi for coming despite the fact he is now dead.

"Ebrahim, are you here? Where you at, Ebrahim? Stand up, man," a confused Biden said, pausing his speech midway through a point about the climate so he could address the dead Iranian president. "We go way back, me and ole Ebby."

President Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash Sunday, was not present because he was dead.

"Don't leave me hangin', man!" Biden persisted. "Classic, Raisi!"

As onlookers snickered, Biden seemingly believed he had latched on to a great joke and decided to milk it for all it was worth. "No, I'm serious!" he said. "I love ole Ebby. He's a great butcher. Not a joke!"

  All available information indicates that the Iranian helicopter pilot flew into bad weather in a mountainous area, visibility became worse, and the helicopter flew into the side of a mountain. Raisi is becoming, ummm, acquainted with his 72 eternal companions Warning, a disturbing picture is below):

You have been warned!

It could also be an inside job. There are many Iranians who he murdered and their remaining families hate him.

The guy had thousands of people who wanted him dead, domestically and internationally, for various reasons.
Trying to whittle down a single list of likely suspects is not possible. Could be anybody.
Or it could just be an act of Allah, cleaning up his stupid people on his own.
