| Hezbollah did the same thing to an Israeli drone, and Hezbollah is way more low tech than Iran, and the Israeli drones have some of the same technology we used in the RQ170. |

| The Pentagon is trying to say it self landed in Iran due to a glitch. I think Iran hacked it and brought it back. |

Everyone knows Iran had the drone. But it hasn't been proven they shot it down, because they didn't. ________________
If they had shot it down, it would be in pieces. |

| Don't under estimate anyone. Who knew that a bunch of jungle Vietcongs could make the Americans leave? Who knew a bunch of turban headed turban guys could beat the Soviets? |

they beat the soviets because Usa funded them. - Pakistan too. But we are giving the CIA way too much credit. The Mujahadeen did it on their own. In fact, they didn't even need the Stinger. They had developed a system akin to quail hunting. You form a line, and shoot, but they timed their RPGs to explode in midair like a flak system. Secondly, the Soviet Union was split between modernizing their army to compete with Reagan, and fighting a war in Afghanistan, and the uprisings in their empire. |

^^ Their economy was already stagnating in the mid-to-late 70's, I think everyone saw it coming. |

| Something either internal or external caused the glitch which made the drone self land itself inside Iran. No freaking pilot would do that. |
