Burning American and Israeli flags, Iranians rallied after Friday prayers against the U.S.'s decision to designate the country's powerful Revolutionary Guards as a foreign terrorist organization. Thousands of worshippers came out of the mosques chanting traditional anti-U.S. slogans at such rallies of "Death to America" and "Death to Israel." Iranian state media said similar demonstrations took place in other Iranian cities and towns. Iran responded by designating all U.S. forces as terrorist and labeling the U.S. a "supporter of terrorism." "The provocative move will raise tensions to an uncontrollable level and increase threats in the region," he said, adding that the Revolutionary Guard is at the forefront in fighting terrorism and extremism.
