President Ebrahim Raisi and foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian of Iran have died in a helicopter crash. I'm sure this is mere coincidence of course

To be fair, the weather was incredibly bad and the helicopter wasn't in great condition but damn. The timing

        we've already been fed the "secret service agent's gun just went off lol and they blamed a guy because lolz"-style explanation in "sanctions killed him the heli parts sucked lolz"

        i totally understand that maybe limiting production of military helicopters but it seems kind of far fetched it would result in poor maintenance on the heli carrying state leaders 🤔

      Honestly in this case I think the chopper just crashed. Never get into a helicopter. brace-dark-cowboy
