Uh oh, this means that Iran got what it wants.  “Iran leader signals support for nuke talks at critical stage,” Amir Vahdat, AP, March 21, 2022.

This is terrible—the IRGC is a full military dedicated by the Regime to pursuing the Revolution.  Terrorism is used and has always been used as a major part of the IRGC’s strategy.  See “Iran Nuclear Deal’s Final Hurdle Is Lifting Terrorism Sanctions on Revolutionary Guards,” Laurence Norman, Wall Street Journal, March 21, 2022.  “U.S. allies including Israel want the Iranian security force to remain on the list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations. … The effort to revive the 2015 nuclear deal agreement now hinges on perhaps the most politically sensitive issue in the negotiations: whether to remove the U.S. terrorism designation for Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards, the country’s powerful security force, diplomats said. The issue is galvanizing opposition to the nuclear deal in Washington and among Middle East allies such as Israel, where the government issued stinging public criticism of any attempt to remove the terrorism designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Senior U.S. officials say a failure to find a compromise with Iran on the issue quickly could cause a breakdown in negotiations that—over almost a year—have resolved nearly every other disagreement. The U.S. has accused the Guard of killing hundreds of Americans, while its elite Quds Force has arranged weapons and support for proxy forces throughout the region and for pro-Iranian groups that fought in Syria. The Guard has long faced U.S. sanctions for its ballistic-missiles programs and alleged human-rights violations and was placed on the counterterror sanctions list in 2017. Those backing compromise argued that other sanctions on the Guard would still keep foreign companies away from dealing with Guard-linked Iranian firms, damping the economic benefits of any nuclear deal for Iran.”
