Iran-US-Parliament
Iranian lawmakers on Saturday labelled the US army and CIA as terrorist groups.

The parliament said in a statement that the US army has a record of terrorist operations citing bombardment of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear weapons and CIA has been involved in establishment of terror networks and training terrorists worldwide.

"Bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki with atomic weapons and throwing depleted uranium bombs in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, waging war on Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, and supporting Israel in its crackdown on Palestinian and Lebanese people are the record of the US army and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)," the statement said.

The statement further noted that they have also supported Iraq former dictator Saddam Hussein, and terrorist groups including Mujahideen Khalq Organization (MKO), Al Qaeda and Taliban, and established secret prisons in Europe. CIA has also record of degrading treatment of prisoners in Guantanamo Bay in Cuba and Abu Ghraib in Iraq.

The MPs added that practices of the US army and CIA are tantamount to terrorist acts in contravention of the international norms and conventions.

:roflmao: This is why the name calling game should be relegated to the school yards.

Well I totally agree with Iran, CIA and US army acts as terrorists. So why not.
The only final step now is to overcome the power of CIA and US army terrorists. And that is done by uniting forces.

By the very definitions of terrorism and/or terrorist acts, sovereign nations can't be called terrorist or terrorist organizations. There can be acts of war, there can be other such terms related to war, but it's not terrorism. And anyone who thinks so is just ...well, farting into the wind.

well than US isn't a sovereign nation...its just fart into the wind of a terrorist cell. Just like Palestine isn't a sovereign nation and HAMAS is its terrorist rule.

I spit on it. What was wrong with me, thinking of US Air Force as a choice?!!!

That's a generaliztion. Yes there's splinter groups in the CIA who're un moral. But there's also been alot of whistleblowers over the years exposing the bad elements inside of the Angency.

 

In light of their accusation, it is interesting to note that the CIA has undertaken a significant number of undercover operations around the world in the last half century that resemble terrorist acts. Here is one:

Myself, I am expecting one soon that will be a joint operation with Israel, Saudi Arabia able in some way to be blamed on Iran and enable Israel to send missiles and bombers to pound Iran. This would then enable the U.S. to intervene in support of "our friend" Israel. The U.S. ploy working with the UN is not panning out and time is running short. This has to begin well before the end of the Bush Administration, otherwise, how could a right-wing government stay in power?

This is in response to the US labeling the Iranian army as terrorist group when Ahmedinejad was in the US. And imposing more sanctions.

The 2007 sanctions cover essentially the following:

1. Potentially any foreign company that invests more than $20 million in Iranian energy sector will be subject to sanctions in the US market. This has hitherto been waived by the executive, but this legislation could override any future executive considerations. Wonder what the European, Chinese and Russian energy markets think of this.

2. There is already a ban on US companies and their foreign subsidiaries from conducting business with Iran, including financing the development of petroleum reserves.

3. A total ban on Iranian imports. This is couched in several different ways with the US threatening to reduce its contributions to the World Bank and refusing nuclear cooperation with Russia if it assists Iran in any nuclear energy program.

4. And lastly, it has declared the Iranian Revolutionary Guards (a part of the Iranian military) as a terrorist organisation.

Which have been delayed:

 

If the US can, why not Iran? America fits the description, anyhow, much better than Iran.

 

No, Sam, not the Iranian army .....the Republican Guards! Big, big difference.

The Republican Guards were in Iraq.

The Revolutionary Guards or the Pasdaran-e-Enghelab is the largest branch of the Iranian army.

I'm okay with that.

A good point.

I guess it's all a matter of perspective. Though, despite some of the pathetic actions of US troops, as far as concquering occupiers go, the US has been pretty benevolent. Just look at the hike in our budget defecit because of the heomorrage of cash being flushed down the piss pipes in Iraq. Would that past concquers had spent so much of their own money on the "subjugated".

im disgusted that more americans arent aware of the cia in iran in the 50's.
or the cia in central america, or the cia in the soviet union....or whatever.

a bunch of dirty fuckers, doing dirty fucker type stuff.
wake up, people: the government isnt acting in your best interests.

 

Precisely. That's the attitude I like to see. Americans are not bad people, but their Government are.

 

Not all bad (as with anywhere), but I think the majority of Americans are perfectly OK with those actions.
