Iran hearings start over shooting down of Ukrainian airliner

There isn't a single person to blame. It is the entire system of training and covering up military screw-ups under heightened fear that was to blame.

If the leadership of the country hadn't been attacking Iraq with missiles, then there wouldn't be the same level of imminent fear.

Fix the process. Provide checklists for the crews with steps to follow - parallelize those steps to minimize the time needed to check if it was a commercial airliner OR something else. Train, train, train for every possible situation and a few impossible situations. Not everyone can be trusted to make the right decision under time pressure when the wrong decision could lead to 10K dead - or 176 dead, in this case.

At least 1 general, 1 colonel and the officer at the SAM site need to be held accountable. In other military's, there us always a ship's captain or colonel held responsible for anything that went bad, because that's their job - to ensure processes exist to prevent accidents from being possible.
