With that being said, if you do not believe it was shot down then how do you explain the footage showing an object flying at an upward trajectory striking the plane just minutes before it crashed?

I'm honestly curious what your theory on that would be. Perhaps that footage is not legit?
I don't believe TOR shot it down, based on the evidence I have right now. And by evidence, I mean evidence not provided by "unnamed intelligence sources".

From the video, it could be a MANPAD; it could be TOR M; or it could be doctored. Is this the footage posted by twitter user "Nariman"? If so, please be cautious because he is a known anti-Iran activist. Thus, I don't consider him a reliable source. With respect to TOR M, all I am saying is that the TOR would have to be deployed to the starboard side of the aircraft. At this point in time (and I stress that), I don't have any evidence stating where this weapon was situated.
