Reuters) - Iran will take reciprocal action against the United States if Washington designates the elite Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) as terrorists, a majority of Iranian parliamentarians said on Sunday, according to state news agency IRNA.
The United States is expected to designate the Revolutionary Guards a foreign terrorist organisation, three U.S. officials told Reuters, marking the first time Washington has formally labelled another country’s military a terrorist group.
"We will answer any action taken against this force with a reciprocal action," a statement issued by 255 out of the 290 Iranian lawmakers said, according to IRNA.
Bet they worried but hey US happy to do business with Al Qaeda and IS in Syria and were happy to give Taliban millions in 2001 in Afghanistan.
If only they had allowed Iran go into Afghanistan in 1998 after Herat and sort the crap out then world would be a different place but US said no.
Just like they told Gadaffi he couldn't arrest Osama for murdering German intelligence agents and then the Islamic fundies he wanted to wipe out headed to Iraq so US Troops could go home in Body bags.
One wonders what they screw up in the next decade will be, bet it will be Saudi's as Libya is this decades.
