Iran's Parliament Signs Resolution to Label CIA, Army as 'Terrorist Organizations'
Iran's Parliament Signs Resolution to Label CIA, Army as 'Terrorist Organizations'
Fox News
TEHRAN, Iran
Iran's parliament on Saturday approved a nonbinding resolution labeling the CIA and the U.S. Army "terrorist organizations," in apparent response to a Senate resolution seeking to give a similar designation to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
The hard-line dominated parliament cited U.S. involvement in dropping nuclear bombs in Japan in World War II, using depleted uranium munitions in the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq, supporting the killings of Palestinians by Israel, bombing and killing Iraqi civilians, and torturing terror suspects in prisons.
"The aggressor U.S. Army and the Central Intelligence Agency are terrorists and also nurture terror," said a statement by the 215 lawmakers who signed the resolution at an open session of the Iranian parliament. The session was broadcast live on state-run radio.
The resolution, which is seen as a diplomatic offensive against the U.S., urges Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's government to treat the two as terrorist organizations. It also paves the way for the resolution to become legislation that — if ratified by the country's hardline constitutional watchdog — would become law.
The government is expected to wait for U.S. reaction before making its decision. In Washington, the White House declined to comment Saturday.
On Wednesday, the Senate voted 76-22 in favor of a resolution urging the State Department to designate Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a terrorist organization. While the proposal attracted overwhelming bipartisan support, a small group of Democrats said they feared labeling the state-sponsored organization a terrorist group could be interpreted as a congressional authorization of military force in Iran.
The Bush administration had already been considering whether to blacklist an elite unit within the Revolutionary Guard, subjecting part of the vast military operation to financial sanctions.
The U.S. legislative push came a day after Ahmadinejad told world leaders at the U.N. General Assembly that his country would defy attempts to impose new sanctions by "arrogant powers" seeking to curb its nuclear program, accusing them of lying and imposing illegal penalties on his country.
He said the nuclear issue was now "closed" as a political issue and Iran would pursue the monitoring of its nuclear program "through its appropriate legal path," the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog.
Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have escalated over Washington accusations that Iran is secretly trying to develop nuclear weapons and has been supplying Shiite militias in Iraq with deadly weapons used to kill U.S. troops. Iran denies both of the allegations.

All he needs is a Fur Hat and some makeup and he will look like the clown we all know he is.
Then at a debate ,Republican front-runners weren’t the only things missing from the presidential debate stage. The American flag was AWOL, too.
" The backdrop to the “All-American Presidential Forum,” brought to you by Tavis Smiley and PBS, was a map of the United States, superimposed with a checkerboard of multicultural faces.
Rep. Duncan Hunter of California, one of the presidential hopefuls, asked debate organizers to get Old Glory up there, too, according to Chris Cavey, first vice chairman of the state GOP.
Cavey was acting as an escort for another candidate, Tom Tancredo of Colorado, and heard Hunter’s request over his earpiece about half an hour before the show began.
“Escorts were wired. I heard [in the earpiece], ‘Congressman Hunter is requesting a flag on stage,’” Cavey said.
Request denied."
The reason ? Our flag MIGHT OFFEND someone in the audience. We have Red states and Blue states, the map on the stage was all different colors reflecting the multi-cultural, multi-diversity of the country. everything was there except the American Flag. Whose friggin country is it. And if someone is offended, why the hell don't we show these retarded sons of bitches the door.
Who the hell is running the government Dr. Seuss, I mean c'mon if the American Flag offends someone, in the audience, living in this country, then their being in this country, is not that of being an American.
When are we going to stop being afraid of offending someone because of OUR culture. I say, if our country offends you, you have two choices 1.) F'n leave or... 2.) Shut the hell up and learn why you have the freedoms you have, it aint because of Hillary Clinton or any mealy mouthed self righteous F'n Liberal. It is because when we are challanged we kept this land because we won't back down.
I have had it with this multi-cultural crap, I have had it with 'Dissing God', He is the reason we have rights, I am tired of these punks trying to change the Pledge. We used to be a country of majority rule, since when does one disaffected individual have the right to tell the rest of us that our Culture and tradition is wrong, Screw that disaffected moron. We either got to stand up and fight to get our country back or we will surely lose it.

And we are supposed to start talks with this idiot??
Ego-maniacal delusionists...and that goes for Ahmadinejad too.

As long as we rely on that corrupt organization of Communist despots known as the UN we'll have to go it alone. They are dragging their feet until Russia and N Korea fit them with nuclear weapons then they can say it's too late to stop them.
At least the past week's events have awakened the frogs, one of them is making croaking noises over in Eurostan. "But Comrade Putin, Iran poses a threat to us too, we're not Jewish just old fashioned Francophiles"
Nicolas Sarkozi should know about the Red Army and invasion, his family fled Hungary under Stalin's rule in 44 & 45.
The modern madman is following in Hitler and Stalin's footsteps with the ideals of world domination no matter what the death toll is.
So what's our solution from the top to bottom? Dialog!!! Just talk about talking to them.
Yep, they are reasonable people, after all they are from the cradle of civilization, Mesopotamia, the Garden of Eden. Just appease them.
Wake up out there!!!

Mark - some people need deporting to the socialist paradise of their choice where they won't have to see the Stars and Stripes flown.
If the US Army is a terrorist organization, I bet my terrorists can whip your sorry assed terrorists Ahmadinejad! If fact, they are. Along Iraq's border with Iran, US Army troops are encountering and killing Iran's Revolutionary Guard forces dressed as civilians.
The REAL terrorist threat America faces right now is from treasonous Democrat members of Congress.
