A U.S. Navy ship accidently shot down an Iranian airliner in July 1988 - 270 were killed.

Retaliation came on December 28, 1988....Five and one half months later..got that.?

Let's say that again..........5 and 1/2 months later..Read the above article. or if you do not want to, then do the research yourself...

.Iran takes time to revenge...When Iran hit Pan Am flight 103 in December, 1988 290 people were killed.

Only complete idiots do not learn from history. .....
And this one is much worse...and chances are you forgot. Archduke Franz Ferdinand was shot by an assassin in 1914...When that particular incident was totally played out, with total stupidity, 20 million people were killed. ...Historians called it .........."The Great War"...That is what historians called it in the 1920s..got that?

...Historians renamed that war after another war began in 1939...The Great War, became World War I, and that next war that killed at least twice as many (estimates range from 50 million to 60 million...became World War II. got that?...Only complete idiots do not learn from history...got that?
