Nothing to see here, folks, move along.

Is that supposed to be funny?

It's not funny, it's poignant. We downed an iranian airliner pre gulf war last time thinking it was a hostile target...

asshat-ish? Is that like a bedpan, only softer?

Oh, and if you read into who was on board you'll find they're the bad kind of Iranian, the people most loyal to the shah. They do great things to Iranians like arrest, kill and torture them

The Shah? Obviously you haven't the slightest clue as to what you are talking about. The Revolutionary Guard was created after the Islamic Revolution deposed the Shah.
