Yeah, I don't live in a slice of the multiverse where Iran is trustworthy in any sense. I'm no fan of Israel's government, but Iran is ground zero for terrorism training worldwide.

Or they see the use of 'terrorism' in this context as the dogwhistle it is.

I never learned to whistle. I did learn to read https://www.state.gov/reports/country-reports-on-terrorism-2...

(and if you are going to reply to it, please, explanation how all of those organization are not terrorist organizations)

Did you read about how the IDF arms settlers and escorts them into the West Bank, where they harass residents? How about how they arbitrarily arrest and detain Palestinians and torture them without cause? Does this qualify as terrorism or is the US designation all that matters to you? If so, I wonder if you regard the US' documented sponsorship of AQ affiliates as an indication that their heuristic may be flawed. Cute deflection, though.
