Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleMark Milley, the US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, says he opposes delisting the Iran Revolutionary Guards’ Quds Force as a terror organization.
“In my personal opinion I believe the IRGC Quds Force to be a terrorist organization and I do not support them being delisted from the Foreign Terrorist Organizations list,” Milley tells US lawmakers.
