Iran Fired On U.S. Drone Because It Violated Airspace, Says Iranian Official
AP | Posted: 11/09/2012 9:48 am EST Updated: 11/09/2012 9:44 pm EST

TEHRAN, Iran -- A prominent Iranian parliament member said Friday that a U.S. drone violated Iran's airspace a week ago, when the Pentagon says it was fired on. The U.S. maintains the pilotless craft was over international waters.

Lawmaker Mohammad Saleh Jokar told state-owned yjc.ir news website that Iranian fighters shot at the U.S. drone because it had entered Iranian airspace.

"Violation of the airspace of Iran was the reason for shooting at the American drone," Mohammad Saleh Jokar was quoted as saying. "This showed Iran has the necessary readiness to defend against any invasion."
...
Pentagon press secretary George Little said the drone aircraft was performing "routine surveillance" and was about 26 kilometers (16 miles) off the Iranian coast when an Iranian SU-25 warplane intercepted it and opened fire. He said it was the first time an unmanned U.S. aircraft was shot at in international airspace over the Gulf.
...
Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have been high over Iran's suspect nuclear program.

News stations are saying it was over open airspace, over water, when two jets went after the drone... still... the US needs to start minding their own damn business.

All stock answers I think - i.e. lies from US, probably, regarding their location.Shoot the fucker down. It wasn't manned anyway.
