The Iranian parliament approved bill on Tuesday that designates United States military forces as terrorists, days after American airstrikes killed top Iranian military leader General Qassem Soleimani in Iraq. The bill is similar to the action the U.S. took last year when the Trump administration designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a foreign terrorist organization.

Members of parliament passed the bill declaring the U.S. military and the Pentagon terrorist entities, according to Iranian state media. Under the bill, the Iranian government will also provide $220 million to the IRGC to "reinforce its defense power in vengeance for General Soleimani's assassination," the news agency reported, as tensions between the U.S. and Iran rise.

Does this mean we get to play Cowboys and Iranians? Do we get to kill them all? We’ve sorta screwed it the last few times. This time, right down to the farm animals and wildlife...

“Well, if you are gonna call me one, you’re one too!”

The sort of taunts you would hear from unruly ten-year-olds.

Terrorism is a strategy, not a belief system. But belief systems can use strategies.

Jeff Dunham will now need to get another Terrorist dummy so he can have two. I’m curious as to what they will say to each other.

I guess that’s kind of an honor coming from the world’s number one terrorist nation.

I am not sure if I should laugh at that, or just shake my head in wonder at their stupidity?

As long as no one is seriously wounded, leave it alone. You gathered enough Intel from the attack to set the trap on their next attack. However, if Americans are killed, it’s game on.

Regime Change ... What the ordinary Iranian people have been praying for - for decades.

Let the Iranians themselves kill their country’s equivalent of the Gestapo and SS.
