Elder of ZiyonPresident Hassan Rouhani has signed an amended law that expands Iran’s designation of American terrorist organizations to include the Pentagon and all its subsidiaries.
Iran’s parliament passed the initial version of the law back in April, which designated the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) a terrorist organization after the US blacklisted the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).
Last week, the Iranian parliament expanded it to include the Pentagon, in response to US assassination of IRGC Quds Force commander General Qassem Soleimani and his companions in Baghdad.
Rouhani signed the amended version, thus making its implementation imperative upon all the country’s related bodies.
The new version blacklists all staff members of the Pentagon and subsidiary companies and institutions, in addition to those who commanded and perpetrated General Soleimani’s assassination.
All the 233 lawmakers present at an open session of the parliament on Tuesday unanimously adopted the triple-urgency motion.
The vote was unanimous!
Mike Pompeo must be quaking in his boots.
This will have a huge effect on the Pentagon's many bank holdings in Tehran. Not to mention that Pentagon employees won't be able to speak at prestigious Iranian security conferences.
