Removing Iran's IRGC from terror list would be 'colossal mistake,' former US counterterror official says
Fox News
A former counterterrorism official is warning that removing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) from the Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO)list would be a “colossal mistake."
Two sources familiar with ongoing deliberation told Fox News last week that the administration is considering removing the IRGC -- which serves as a powerful military faction for the regime -- from the list. Tehran has been demanding such a concession for months as talks continue in Vienna for how to bring Iran and the U.S. back into the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
