Iran Labels CIA 'Terrorist Organization'
Breitbart via Drudge Report ^ | Sept 29, 2007 | ALI AKBAR DAREINI

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - 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.

If they had declared the CIA to be a “useless organization”, I might agree.

Notice the difference? When the mighty USA designates those bearded thugs as terrorists it does matter. Everyone, on every side listens up. They know it’s relevant. But when the Iranian “parliament” designates the US Army and the CIA as “terrorists” it’s so obviously a PR stunt which exposes them as immature pathetic worms.

That’s really not funny...because it’s true. I’ve read a ton of posts at other web sites from liberals who never miss a chance to say these exact things. They’ve got to be loving this and they don’t even realize that it aligns them with an evil regime, or if they do it’s ok because Bush is the REAL terrorist. It makes me sad for this country.

It would be great if they were effective vis a vis their charter. But as is the case with the State Department, the Leftist Boll Weevils have done a lot of damage.
