Speaking at the anti-US protests the Leader's representative in Tabriz, Hojjatoleslam Seyyed Mohammad-Ali Al-e Hashem stressed that all the Iranian people are members of the IRGC and if the IRGC is labeled a terrorist organization by enemies, the peoples of the world know very well that the US itself is the biggest supporter and sponsor of terrorism.
Furthermore, the deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Brigadier General Ahmad-Reza Pourdastan said on Thursday that the recent US move against Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) shows America's weakness and the frustration among the US ruling elite.
