Iran’s Rouhani calls U.S. move against Revolutionary Guards a 'mistake'

By Erin Cunningham Erin Cunningham Middle East reporter covering Iran, Turkey, Syria and the wider region Email Bio Follow April 9 at 9:11 AM ISTANBUL — Iran’s leaders on Tuesday warned the United States of serious repercussions after it designated the nation’s elite Revolutionary Guard Corps a terrorist organization.

The Revolutionary Guard was established in 1979 to protect the Islamic revolution that had just overthrown Iran’s long-ruling monarchy. He spoke at an event marking National Nuclear Day and also warned that U.S. efforts would not hinder Iran’s “scientific progress.” Iran’s development of a nuclear power program that could possibly be used to produce weapons has long been of great international concern.

Iran obviously misses the good old days of America 'leading from behind' under Obama.

Do they realize American foreign policy is not run by America?

Trump to Rouhani, bite me.

IRGC controls almost everything in the country , oppresses any other voice and enriches itself at the expense of the Iranian people. As an Iranian I say to it is Not a mistake EndofIRGCterror

I guess all warnings going to be ignored.

If so, Uncle SAM will like to commit this mistake again and again.

You need to define what is terrorism? Killing gaddafi saddam etc and dragging them to civil war? Who created taliban and pkk? Whole world knows this. We all shall be honest inorder to lead this world to a peaceful place. No offence. Thanks

It wasn't a mistake - it was very purposeful and has Bolton written all over it. Laying the groundwork for a conflict with Iran. It's disgusting and we should never support sending more servicemen to their deaths so that the rich may battle for oil and resources.

They should be happy that they haven’t been invaded yet.

Yea that was the word I thought of too. No idea anything but just seems like a mistake

Did Iran write this tweet. Can't help but think Israel is behind this declaration. As most Palestinian resisters to Israel's annexation of their land, (lol it is pure theft of Palestinian lands) need other Arab countries to support their right to the lands given to them in 1947-9.

U.S. to designate Iran’s Revolutionary Guard a terrorist groupThe Trump administration is preparing to designate Iran's Revolutionary Guard a 'foreign terrorist organization,' an unprecedented move against a national armed force that could have widespread implications for U.S. personnel and policy in the Middle East and elsewhere. GOOD JOB MR PRESIDENT And now is taking the side of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, the military propping up a regime that imprisons and beats women for refusing to wear the hijab. The Trump-hate is deep and profoundly debilitating here. Done already.
