Iranian Plane Captain Asks to Be Sent to Mission Impossible in Yemen Again

Which international treaties...it doesn't work like that.

You think "Saudi Arabia unilaterally declared Yemeni airspace as no-fly zone, and you don't recognize that blokade" however US, GCC, Turkey, EU, etc... recognizes it.

If They had shot the Iranian plane and Iran had moved the incident to UN....you wouldn't succeed. It would be just like the Mavi Marmara incident.

If you wanna learn more about the International Laws ( which can be flexible) you can find the "Palmer Report" and read it.

About War...no i don't think it would start a all-out war. Maybe low-intense war but nothing serious.

After declaring a no-fly zone if you don't show how serious you are. Others will just abuse your incompetence. I wouldn't be surprised if Iran starts to bomb pro-Government forces as the next step.

The only authority that can declare a binding no-fly zone is UN security council. Also please note that a no-fly zone is set to reduce the chance of civilian flights getting caught on a cross fire and make it easier for a party to the war to recognize enemy airplanes.

However, I don't think Iran intention was to ignore the no-fly zone. In this case it was a humanitarian aid, it was not as Iran all of a sudden decided to send a cargo to Yemen. It was coordinated through Red Cross or Crescent. I'm sure it would be allowed to land if it was from any other country but Iran. They did a similar thing 3 weeks ago with another civilian airplane that was carrying pilgrims to SA. Their excuse was that the fly was not properly coordinated!

If Iran wanted to violate the no fly zone, it would maintain the daily civilian airline flight from Tehran to Sana.

There is also a blockade on the Yemeni ports but it doesn't mean that humanitarian helps can't get through. There are food and medicine sent to Yemen through the same blocked routes.

Mate...no-fly zone.

If you have closed the Airspace...you would say "OK, land your plane in Saudi Arabia, we are gonna search the plane if you are really carrying humanitarian aid, we will let you land in Yemen". If plane is not complying, you would fire some warning shots and repeat your orders again. If the plane is still not complying you would shot it down.

How can they be sure that...you are not supplying Houthis with AA weaponry ?

I'm saying this, they could have justified shooting the down the Iranian Plane in the International Arena..

And we could justify it when we randomly bombed their oil plants, couldn't we? It is not that simple, only because they are bombing poor Yemenis who don't have electricity and water these days doesn't mean they are stupid enough to shoot down Iran's airliner. It's not like they don't know what a no-fly zone is.

We can't seem to understand each other....Let's leave it here.

@Sage

All I can say is they are tempting the "wahabis" now. (churi oper ho ya nechay, phul hi kat ta hey~)

and when their plane will be shot down by an F-16 AMRAAM missile then they will be beating their heads on the streets

They don't want to piss off Iran more than they already have. Iran's negative public opinion against KSA is at an all time high after how they treated Iran's pilgrims.

with all due respect for my Iranian friends

they all cant care less how much Iranians hate them
heck they dont even care how much Pakistanis loathe them either or the rest of the world
what matters to them is that Western leaders line up to pay respect to their kings and Pakistani leadership licks their feet.

re starting a war with KSA? well thats what they are spoiling for and hopping for that Iranian volatile clergy will put its rhetoric into action. and then all KSA needs to do is secretly wink at Israel to do that work that both wanted to get done for a decade.

this is not the time for warmongering but actually smart diplomacy. beat them in their own game by gaining allies. Iran has gratitude from Iraqi government and also a silent approval from the west for its fight against ISIS. the Nuclear agreement has not fallen through I hope it goes through well and the sanctions are lifted. with that done launch a diplomatic mission re Yemen and seek UN's help for providing humanitarian support of the Yemeni people affected by the relentless Areal bombing.

I have no doubt about the Iranian resolve and fighting spirit but you guys lack the much needed international support, you cant survive in the international community on your own and then there is a matter of technology. the GCC is light years away in terms of both its offensive and defensive hardware, your air force will be pulverised in the early hours of the war . I am sorry I want to sugar coat it but I cant. they wont be able to conquer your country but will push you few hundred years back and would collaborate with Israel to blow up your nuclear installations.
so ask your self is this rhetoric and warmongering over Yemen really worth it?

When that happens , i personally promise you this : Bombing the schnitzels out of non-holy cities throughout KSA . that includes riadh .

Total destruction of all their infrastructure . that includes oil wells .

To sum it up , we'll send KSA to dark ages for good .

I promise you that and i even swear on it .

BTW , what is wrong with the site ?

I hope it never comes to that
and I like I wrote earlier
I have no doubt about the Iranian resolve and nationalism. but forgive me to say this but since your country is blacklisted and locked out from getting new technology so what it has at best is some clones of the 70s or Russian 2nd and thrid tier equipment from 80s or 90s at best (I will like to be wrong)
but this is not the point, since Rohani I am seeing a mature change, I want a more shrewd, smart and cultured approach by Iran on the diplomatic channels .. go win over the neutral world to your side you wont have much fight there, your foes are loathed to thee core in the entire world. and only tolerated due to the oil.

DDOS attacks are happening on the site

If they are years away why on earth did they ask you and Egyptians to fight on behalf of them in Yemen? they even don't enjoy soft power in their own door step that's why they opted military option. israel hasn't dared yet to strike then you're telling us that they might collaborate with israel to blow up your nuclear installations...
They pilots are not able to force a cargo plane to land ..
