Iran Makes ANOTHER Major Threat Against United States
The relationship between the US and Iran hasn’t been all that stellar over the course of the last 50 or so years, and that doesn’t look to be changing any time soon.
This is no surprise, given just how vitriolic and aggressive Iran has been in their condemnation of The United States. For decades, the Islamic regime in charge of the Persian nation has been lambasting the US for any manner of things, most notably their involvement in Middle Eastern affairs.
Much of this criticism has been simply written off as wild propaganda by US officials, especially after considering that high-level officials within Tehran have also been vocal about their belief that The Holocaust may have been a hoax.
This week is different, however, as Iran and the US trade barbs over who are the “terrorists” among the two.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Iran, the highest-ranking branch of the nation’s military, issued a statement vowing to “spare no effort” in fighting the U.S. military on Tuesday, suggesting the potential of a planned attack against Washington.
Like other branches of the Iranian government and military, the General Staff referred to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) as a “terrorist” group, a response to the declaration by the U.S. State Department on Monday that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) would join the agency’s list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) for its decades of involvement in terrorist activity worldwide. The Iranian Islamic regime rapidly responded to the declaration – the first of its kind against a state actor – by reciprocally branding the U.S. military a terrorist group.
