While we’re at it; how ‘bout designating the communist democrats a domestic terrorist group and make it official.

It’s already a terrorist group; just not officially.

The 1983 Beirut bombings.

The IED’s in Iraq.

It about time.

Does this designation mean we can start killing them?

I am sorry to inform all you hopeful patriotic people. By designating anything bad for the USA means there will be nothing done about it for 10-20 years. This ia all just deep state noise that means nothing.

I mean does it mean anything that the USA is against the North Korean buildup of nuclear weapons? What is actually being done to stop it? Or the Iranians building up missiles and nuclear force? What is actually being done to stop it?.

Or the Pakistanis providing weapons and money to the islamic militants in Afghanistan?What is actually being done to stop it? Or the Germans climbing in bed with the Russians over an energy pipeline? What is actually being done to stop it?

Or the Mexicans shuttling Central americans to our southern Border? What is actually being done to stop it?

I’ll tell you what is being done. NOTHING BUT TALK. Drop some bombs and start killing people and I will start believing.

There’s a lot of blather here. Is there a link to a source?

*** The whole country is a terrorst Nation ***

Every young person in Iran does mandatory service in the IRGC, do they not? So, will they all be considered terrorists?

I said Iran, the country is a terrorist nation. But not everyone in Iran is a terrorist. There are a lot of decent people who are oppressed by the terrorist gang who is running the country now.

“Every young person in Iran does mandatory service in the IRGC, do they not?”

No. They have to do mandatory military service, but it doesn’t have to be in IRGC.

In many ways the IRGC is often at odds with Iran’s military. Not a lot of mutual love and admiration there, kind of like the relationship between the Gestapo and the Luftwaffe.
