The Arab world thrives on conspiracy theories and have not only demonized Israel and the United States, but in the process have created the image of Americans and Jews as giants and supermen. In keeping with such "thinking", I would suggest we start the rumor that the Mossad and the CIA were behind this:
Plane crash in Iran kills military elite
A small military passenger jet crashed in northwestern Iran on Monday, killing the commander of the ground forces of the elite Revolutionary Guards and at least 12 other people, official media reported.
....
"Gen. Ahmad Kazemi, commander of the ground forces of the elite revolutionary guards, and other 10 officers of the Guards were killed," the agency quoted Guards' spokesman Gen. Masoud Jazayeri as saying. "The authorities are investigating the incident."
....
Gen. Kazemi, a veteran of the 1980-88 war with Iraq, was appointed commander of the Guards' ground forces in August in a reshuffle after President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took office.
Of course, it is also possible some indigenous groups were involved, and it could also have just been an accident, what with Iran dependent on American spare parts which haven't been delivered in 30 years, to keep their planes in the air. I prefer my rumor and I'm sticking with it! Call it my little contribution to Psy-ops against Iran.
