BEIJING, April 9 (Xinhua)-According to a comprehensive report, the US-Iraq enmity record has added to the waves. On the 8 th, US President Trump put a "ruthless move" on Iran and announced that the Islamic Revolutionary Guards queue was a terrorist organization. This is the first time that the United States has listed a country’s national armed forces as a terrorist organization. Iran then fought back and identified the US military forces as terrorist organizations. Israel ushered in parliamentary elections on the 9th. At this time, the United States increased pressure on Iran, and the motivation behind it was intriguing.

　　The United States has made a "vicious move" to list the Iranian army as a terrorist organization.

　　On the 8th local time, US President Trump officially announced that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) was listed as a "foreign terrorist organization". This is the first time that the United States has listed a country’s national armed forces as a terrorist organization.

　　Trump said that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is the main means for the Iranian government to command and implement its global terrorist actions, and any business dealings with or support for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps will be at risk.

　　Trump said that this move will increase the scope and intensity of the US "extreme pressure" on Iran. He said that this decision sent a clear signal to Tehran that Iran’s support for terrorism would have serious consequences. The United States will continue to increase economic sanctions.

　　According to the report, US Secretary of State Pompeo is a tough critic of Iran, who promoted this policy change as part of the Trump administration’s tough stance towards Teheran.

　　This determination will take effect on April 16 and will allow the Trump administration to impose criminal penalties on members of the organization and foreign officials who are regarded as assisting them.

　　Before the announcement, the United States had blacklisted dozens of entities and personnel associated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, but not the entire organization.

　　Iran retaliated by accusing the US of threatening regional peace.

　　Shortly after the United States announced that the Iranian army was listed as a terrorist organization, Iran quickly responded in kind. Iran’s Supreme National Security Council announced on the evening of the 8th that it identified the US Central Command and its troops stationed in West Asia as terrorist organizations.

　　Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said in a statement that the United States and its allies support "extremist and terrorist organizations" in West Asia, and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has always been in the front line of "fighting terrorism and extremism" in the region.

　　The statement said that this move by the United States is an "illegal and stupid act", which blatantly violates international law and the Charter of the United Nations and poses a major threat to regional and international peace and stability. The United States should bear all the responsibilities for "all dangerous consequences" caused by this behavior.

　　It is reported that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was established after the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979. Together with the Iranian Defense Forces, it forms the regular Iranian armed forces, with three services: sea, land and air. Defending the Islamic revolutionary regime is the core mission of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. In addition, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also plays an important role in transportation, energy, trade, finance and other fields related to Iran’s economic lifeline.

　　The motives behind Israel’s election today and the United States are intriguing

　　Israel ushered in parliamentary elections on the 9th, and Trump’s statement that the Iranian army was listed as a terrorist organization was released the day before the Israeli election. Some analysts said that given that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will face difficult elections, the timing announced by the United States is intriguing.

　　It is reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking a fifth term, and he has promised to strongly resist Iran’s threatening behavior throughout the Middle East.

　　It is reported that the foreign expedition branch of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps — — The Al-Quds Army has been actively involved in the fight against the extremist organization "Islamic State" terrorists in Syria and other radical organizations opposed to the Syrian government. But Israel believes that Iran poses a threat to Israel’s survival.

　　In fact, after Trump took office, the US government not only withdrew from the Iranian nuclear deal, but also took many actions to support the Israeli government, especially on the Palestinian-Israeli issue. Last year, the United States moved its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

　　Recently, the President of the United States also acknowledged Israel’s claim to the Golan Heights occupied since 1967, which aroused strong condemnation from Syria.

　　Trump’ s move against the Iranian army has also been criticized before. Some critics have warned that this may set a precedent for US military and intelligence officials to take similar actions against unfriendly governments.

　　The Revenge between the United States and Iraq after Trump took office

　　In January 2017, Trump was elected as the 45th president of the United States. Since taking office, Trump has been constantly releasing his attitude of withdrawing from the Iranian nuclear deal. In July, Trump "reluctantly recognized" Iran’s compliance with the agreement in the congressional review, but said Iran violated the "spirit" of the agreement.

　　In May 2018, US President Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the Iranian nuclear deal and restart sanctions against Iraq.

　　In August 2018, the United States began to resume some sanctions against Iran that were lifted when it signed the the Iranian nuclear deal in 2015, mainly targeting Iran’s non-energy sectors such as finance, metals, minerals and automobiles.

　　In November 2018, the United States restarted the second batch of sanctions against Iran, mainly in the fields of energy and shipping.

　　On April 8, 2019, the United States announced that it would rank the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization. This is the first time that the United States has listed a country’s national armed forces as a terrorist organization.

　　The fifth in a series of comments on "strictly administering the party in an all-round way"

　　Ma Zhenqing

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the supreme leader has made a series of important expositions on strengthening Party building, and put forward many new ideas, viewpoints and conclusions. These important expositions have enriched the theoretical treasure house of Marxist party building, deepened the understanding of the law of party building under the new historical conditions, provided an action guide for comprehensively administering the party strictly, and opened up a new realm of Marxist ruling party building. At present, the biggest risk and challenge facing the party is corruption and unhealthy tendencies within the party. The task of strictly administering the party is more arduous and urgent than ever before. We must adhere to the rule of law and regulations, build an all-round system of strictly administering the party, and constantly create a new situation in party system construction.

　　Strictly administering the party in an all-round way depends on strict party rules and discipline.The construction of inner-party laws and regulations system is an important part of the strategy of governing the country according to law. We must deeply understand the necessity and urgency of perfecting the inner-party laws and regulations system, focus on building a perfect inner-party laws and regulations system, a strict implementation system and a strict supervision system, and ensure that the inner-party laws and regulations system is more perfect, scientific and effective, and that the party is strictly governed by laws and regulations.

　　Since taking office, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has successively formulated and promulgated a large number of important inner-party laws and regulations, initially forming the framework of the inner-party laws and regulations system, which provides important legal guarantee and institutional support for managing the party and the country. On October 27th, the Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of communist party, China was successfully concluded. The plenary session deliberated and adopted "Several Guidelines on Inner-Party Political Life under the New Situation" and "Regulations on Inner-Party Supervision in the Communist Party of China (CPC)", which further pointed out the direction, defined the tasks and provided the basis for the strict administration of the Party. The whole party and the whole society generally believe that these two internal party laws and regulations are a new milestone in our party’s management of the party.

　　Strictly administering the Party in an all-round way should be severely punished and nip in the bud.Many corruption problems occur, on the one hand, cadres relax their vigilance and ignore discipline and rules; On the other hand, there is no vaccination in advance. A large number of corruption cases show that it is necessary to "put power in the cage of the system". The two inner-party laws and regulations deliberated and adopted at the Sixth Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee made us deeply feel the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s concern and love for party member cadres.

　　Be strict at ordinary times, and don’t be confused when something happens. Strictly administering the Party means not only severely punishing cadres who violate the law and discipline, but also reminding and admonishing cadres more, preventing problems before they happen, strengthening supervision and discipline, guiding, educating and protecting cadres, doing a good job in building a cadre team, grasping early and small, grasping early rather than late, and grasping the symptoms is better than grasping the consequences.

　　It requires strong leadership to strictly manage the party in an all-round way.A team with chaotic thoughts and loose organizational discipline cannot form strength, gain the trust and support of the people, complete its historical mission, and even fail to fulfill its fundamental purpose. The Communist Party of China (CPC), which has more than 88 million party member, is easy to play its own trumpet, go its own way and keep pace with each other without a strong core as its leader. There must be a core to strictly manage the party in an all-round way. An important achievement of the Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee is to clarify the core position of the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader and formally put forward the "Party Central Committee with the Comrade of the Supreme Leader as the core". This is of great and far-reaching significance to safeguarding the authority of the CPC Central Committee, maintaining the unity and centralized leadership of the Party, better rallying the strength of the whole Party, the whole army and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country to seize opportunities and overcome challenges, uniting the whole Party as one, making Do not forget your initiative mind move forward, and ensuring the prosperity and long-term stability of our Party and country.

　　Governing the country must first govern the party, and the party must be strict. To ensure that the Communist Party of China (CPC) becomes a strong Marxist ruling party and always becomes a strong leading force in Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s great cause, we must combine ideological party building with institutional party management, strictly implement the party’s main responsibility, constantly improve the party’s ruling ability and level, formulate and improve the party’s laws and regulations according to the principle of governing the party according to law, improve and perfect the system of internal party laws and regulations, and manage, manage and build the party with strict rules and regulations, so as to build a well-off society in an all-round way, deepen reform in an all-round way, and comprehensively.
