IRANIAN TROOPS PERISH IN PLANE CRASH: Will anyone blame this crash on Iranian "arrogance"?
UPDATE: James Morrow wonders what Allah thinks about it:
When the Shuttle Columbia burned up on re-entry, many in the enlightened and rational Islamic world credited Allah with orchestrating the disaster.
Now that an Iranian troop transport plane has crashed, killing 302 - including 280 members of the "elite" Revolutionary Guard Corps - I wonder if the big man upstairs will also cop blame in the Islamist world?
Good question.
