ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA NEWS RELEASE ZOA Praises Rep. Franklin (R-FL) for Cong. Letter to Keep Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Foreign Terrorist List The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) President Morton A. Klein and ZOA Director of Government Relations Dan Pollak released the following statement: ZOA strongly praises Rep. Scott Franklin (R-FL) for leading a letter signed by 87 members of Congress urging Secretary of State Antony Blinken to keep Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on the designated list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations. The letter comes in response to news reports that the Biden Administration is considering removing the IRGC’s FTO designation as part of a new nuclear deal with Iran. The proposed deal being negotiated is a future disaster being erected on an edifice of a horrible existing Iran deal. One claim of the original JCPOA was that it left in effect all sanctions on Iran due to their terrorism, human rights violations and ballistic missile development. All such reassurances are now being undone as the reported deal is nearing announcement. “The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is one of the most dangerous terrorist groups in the world today,” Franklin stated. “Through its sponsorship of terrorism, the IRGC is responsible for the deaths of countless innocent people and at least 600 U.S. troops. It has consistently sought the destruction of our partners and allies in the region, most notably Israel, and has been an obstacle to peace in the Middle East for decades. The Biden administration simply cannot reward this terrorist regime with any sort of legitimacy from the U.S. government.” Franklin was joined by 86 of his colleagues.
