US is the mother of terrorism; labelling IRGC as terrorists 'foolish' action: senior cleric
Tehran (KNA) - Tehran Interim Friday Prayers Leader Ayatollah Mohammad-Ali Movahedi Kermani deplored the US terrorism designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, saying the US is the mother of terrorism.
Ayatollah Mohammad-Ali Movahedi Kermani, who was wearing the IRGC uniform during this week's Friday prayers sermon in Tehran, said that the action to designate a part of a country's military forces as a terrorist organization is against all the international laws and regulations, describing Donald Trump as a 'fool' who does not know what he is doing.
Many countries in the world have called into question the America's move as they think it can complicate the situation in the Middle East," the senior cleric said, adding even some American analysts have also described it as "a dangerous act that would endanger American soldiers' lives."
"They [the Americans themselves] know that this was a very stupid action," he further pointed out.
