Iranian lawmaker blames U.S. for disappearance of Malaysian airliner

Mar 11, 2014 9:59 pm By Robert Spencer

malaysia-planeHossein Naghavi Hosseini says that the disappearance of the plane was an attempt to “sabotage the relationship between Iran and China and South East Asia.” Interestingly enough, he doesn’t seem to have blamed the Zionists. Hossein Naghavi Hosseini must be a moderate.

“Iranian Lawmaker Blames U.S. for Plane Disappearance,” by Thomas Erdbrink for the New York Times, March 11 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):

With the fate and location of the missing Malaysia Airlines jet still unexplained on Tuesday, the police were investigating the possibilities of hijacking, sabotage and possible psychological or personal problems among the crew and passengers, while other agencies in Malaysia continued to investigate noncriminal explanations, as Thomas Fuller, Jane Perlez and Alan Cowell reported.

On Tuesday, an influential Iranian lawmaker accused the United States of having “kidnapped” Flight 370, saying it was an attempt to “sabotage the relationship between Iran and China and South East Asia.”

The parliamentarian, Hossein Naghavi Hosseini, who is the spokesman for the foreign policy committee, responded to the news on Tuesday that two Iranian nationals had been traveling on the missing flight holding stolen passports. This accusation was a “plot,” Mr. Naghavi Hosseini said, according to the Tasnim news agency.

“Documents published by the Western media about two Iranians getting on the plane without passports is psychological warfare. Americans recruit some people for such kinds of operations so they can throw the blame on other countries, especially Muslim countries,” he said….

    Two Iranian nationals, both named Mohammad, traveling internationally using false names and stolen passports, on a plane that mysteriously vanishes.

    No, no reason at all to suspect them of foul play -Sarcasm

    Iranian lawmakers will need to bring four witnesses to prove their claim!!!

    “Why did they not bring four witnesses to prove it? When they have not brought the witnesses, such men, in the sight of Allah, (stand forth) themselves as liars!” Qur’an 24:13

    IF the US had a President with some guts, and a Congress that was not as corrupt as this one, PERHAPS there might be validity.

    But with a Muslim ass kisser in the WH, and a Congress run by slime like Reid, and a minority leader like Pelosi, I cannot see it.

    They more likely would blame Israel or a rogue Seal or CIA agent then a Muslim nation ( which is most likely, in my opinion, guilty of foul play.

        I do not think that the US had anything to do with it either. What I meant was, the current administration doesn’t have the b—– to do anything–even if in a good cause. Blowing up a passenger jet from a non combatant country (one the US is NOT at war with) is cowardly, and I don’t think any US President would do it.

        I was, perhaps unclear.

    If these Iranians have anything to do with the missing plane, then the misery of acrophobia has truly got a company in Islamophobia, not that I think any of the two phobias is truly irrational.

    It was probably those pesky giant reptilian aliens what did it. Backed by MI6 and the CIA. The real target was Santa Claus.

    Malaysia is and Islamic country and thus has a motive to “whitewash” the affair.

    Is it just a coincidence that the passangers travelling using the stolen passports were Iranian, with Mohamadan first names?

    If the Malaysian Military had credible information that the plane may have turned back why did they take days to disclose that information.

    Is it possible to gather enough info fro military and sattelites to establish where exactly was the plane travelling.

    This is not meand to exclude the possibility of sudden decompression and crew losing consciousness, but is it likely in a fairly up to date aircraft, with crew hopefully properly trained to deal with emergencies?

    I thought modern airliners are equipped to automatically transmit position gps data via staellite!

      Most of the jets avionic communicators can be switched off. I suspect this evil to be the work of evil Muslims, and possibly covered up by an evil Muslim nation..Maylaysia.

        Malaysia features discriminatory laws (Bumiputera laws) that require businesses and universities to hire and enroll certain minimum numbers of Malaysian muslimes.

    • Mazo says

      Mar 12, 2014 at 4:06 pm

      Many of the crew of the airplane were Malay Muslims, the airplane itself is the property of Malay Muslims, launched from a Malaysian airlines which would suffer massive damage to its reputation and loss of millions of dollars of revenue over hijackings.

      If your suggesting that Malaysia hijacked their own plane or covered anything up, you’re insane.

        Mar 12, 2014 at 5:01 pm

        Ah, the 1001 lies of islam. They never end.

        Muslimes regularly kill each other, all over the world. Sometimes by
        accident (viz. 9-11), sometimes deliberately. Some of them even say
        those killed accidentally by other muslimes still get the ticket to
        allah’s heavenly whorehouse.

          Mar 12, 2014 at 7:13 pm

          Jerry and Truth were specifically, and falsely claiming that the Malaysian [b]GOVERNMENT[/b] was helping hijackers. What does that have to do with whether extremists think its okay to kill other Muslims?

    I thought I was manning the conspiracy desk. I was about to suggest that this was a Mossad cartographing exercise contracted to Singapore. Seriously, the Iranian (Hosseini) was the first to suggest that “911 was Mossad” and when Ahmadinejad’s amplified it, they were both laughed at in, and from outside, Iran.

    The jury’s out here. As a former US Consular Officer, my first reaction to hearing about Iranian nationals, fake passports, and traveling in Southeast Asia was that we probably had two people on the outs with the Iranian regime trying to get somewhere else by either fair means or foul. There is a lot of trading in stolen and fraudulent documents throughout the region. How do passports get stolen? Simple. There’s the tribe that has to carry everything in the back pocket, as if they want to enhance the look of their buttocks; drunks get rolled; hotel staff is about to get fired and makes a play to get something really valuable before leaving; etc.

    As for terrorism, I’ll wait and hear what’s pieced together after they find the airplane. Things can and do go wrong, with or without Muslim terrorists.

    Isn’t it interesting how after Obama removes sanctions America the Iranians focus more of their animosity toward the United States. Weakness invites hate. It’s not just this item, it’s the Iranians sending destroyers off the coast of the United States.

    ‘I love a mystery’…And this missing plane is definitely one of those. Who dun it? Where did it go? Why did it go? The investigators will eventually find out. If they tell us the truth about it, is another matter.

    and the retarded child of islam makes it all about them. their hurt and tantrums over being linked to this. and they tattle and throw blame around and stir up sympathy .. acting hurt and yelling (racist, honour killing, acid throwing suicide bombing etc). its like their men personified into a nation.

    or their nation broken down to tribes, towns and cities. whatever level, across the board, they seem to only have one model or system. every households’patriarch to every level above. the broken record and the utter embarrassment at such whining by grown men. they are so weak!

    what are they saying? that the U S has done this, suicide attack on a plane, and continue to do so? and said with such authority. a half baked blame game, accuse whoever accuses you. and we mostly baulk. but their people, inbred and only knowing a stressful, barbaric “put in your neighbour” society. they have to believe. and take it as gospel.

    immature, insecure, sabre rattling from a semi stone age mob. ( you could even call it a bronze age type affair) primitive…. and that ol book of theirs isnt much to fall back on. its mostly relative to the 7th century. and how a lot of it had to be corrected later. it appeals to the lowest denominators. blame for their misery. blame for their actions. promised lots of virgins. justified rape.. terror, beheading, slavery.. all encouraged. ive never misinterpreted a thing, and it all exeplifies itself daily.

    they cant face themselves, as it just does not stand up.

    The media in the UK today has been full of stories of how one of the pilots of the airplane invited two young ladies into the cockpit three years and smoked there. In a lengthy discussion on LBC I just heard would lead you to conclude that the two most likely causes of the plane’s disappearance were

    A US-China plot whereby they shot the plane down and framed two ‘innocent’ Iranians as a pretext for launching an attack on Iran
    An alien abduction

    Most major ‘commentators’ dismiss terrorism as a possible cause on the spurious basis that ‘any terrorist group carrying out such an act would want to immediately claim responsibility’ – conveniently ignoring the fact that the opposite is almost always true (just think of the Lockerbie bombing as the most obvious example). In fact, although oblique references to ‘Chinese separatists’ has been mentioned, not one of the main stream media reports I have seen has highlighted the real and continuing threat of the Islamist Uighurs against China, nor the actual incidents of Muslim pilots themselves deliberately crashing/hijacking planes.

    Given the thirst for any relevant background information about this airplane mystery I find it curious that the incredibly important information provided in the following report by aviation expert Philip Baum has been totally ignored by the main stream media:

      Malaysia is friendly with China, fool.

      The UMNO dominated Malaysian government sharply differentiates its policies between local Malaysian Chinese and the country China itself, not liking the former, while eagerly seeking to expand ties and cooperation with the latter. Malaysia doesn’t like America’s support for the opposition under Anwar Ibrahim, but China keeps out of Malaysian politics. China is one of Malaysia’s largest trading partners.

      China will not go to war with Malaysia in another 5000 million years.

      In fact when the Portuguese invaded the Malay Malacca Sultanate in 1511, the Chinese punished the Portuguese delegation in China heavily, and defeated Portuguese fleets off the coast of Guangdong in retaliation for their conquest and pillage of Malacca.

        Didn’t Malaysian muslimes commit pogroms against ethnic Chinese living there? Or was that Indonesia? Or both?

        • Mazo says

          Mar 12, 2014 at 7:22 pm

          In 1969 there was ethnic based rioting and violence over the Malaysian elections on 10 May. Both sides were having a go at rioting and attacking each other, there was no one-sided pogroms. There weren’t any riots after that.

          I specifically stated:

          “The UMNO dominated Malaysian government sharply differentiates its policies between local Malaysian Chinese and the country China itself, not liking the former, while eagerly seeking to expand ties and cooperation with the latter”.”

          In Indonesia in 1999, Malay Muslims helped non-Muslim Dayaks massacre and slaughter thousands of Madurese Muslims. Malays Muslims in Indonesia never launched any pogrom against Chinese. In fact, they have good relations with Chinese.

          In the Philippines, Chinese were repeatedly subjected to constant kidnapping, ransom, and murder, by (Catholic) Filipino criminal gangs who were supported by the Filipino police and military. These kidnappings and murders took place in Manila and the Northern Philippine islands, not by Muslims.

        When I was doing my second degree at a major Aussie university in the late 1980s and early 1990s I met a *lot* of Malaysian Chinese overseas students – some Christian, some Taoist or Confucian, some secular – and quite a few Malaysian Indian students – some Christian, some Hindu – who were studying in *Australia* for precisely the same reason: they had been discriminated against in their college applications, because they were not Muslim Malays.

          Sorry. Should have mentioned, too, that some of the Malaysian Chinese students who came to Australia because they were locked out of Uni in Malaysia, were Buddhists.

      Ethnic Chinese makes up ~30% of the population. They are cogs that drive the economy, but not necessarily the wealthy. While there any many wealthy Chinese, the wealthiest (billionaires in USD) are native politicians. The PM of Malaysia is one of the richest if not the richest person in Malaysia. Another fellow that is loaded to the hilt is the current chief minister of the state of Sarawak. Both are worth billions with the latter rumoured to be around 10 – 15 billion USD, possibly more (stashed in various front companies in numerous countries). He has been pillaging the resource rich Sarawak for over 30 years.

    The Pilot may have been up to something in the cockpit – like that Italian ship Captain who slammed that massive Concorda into a concrete ridge a few years back. At that time he was partying with a young woman. The plane may have taken a nose dive and the Captain didn’t realize till it was too late. The Captain appear to have switched off lots of electrical equipment including communication System, transponder and wished everyone Good Night – the last words from him.

    As in most airline disasters – human error to blame. I bet on human error – I doubt any terrorist act.
