TEHRAN (ISNA)-State terrorism is rooted in the US policies, said Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi.
His remarks came after some claims against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and calls for assassination of the forces' commander by the US congressmen.
"The ominous triangle of terrorism, human rights violation and use of weapons of mass destruction are rooted in the US inhumane policies," Vahidi said.
"The US has achieved its goals through the ominous triangle so far", he added.
Iranian defense minister continued, "The US officials are making vain claims and presenting fake documents to sow discord between Iran and regional countries. They accuse Iran of terrorism whereas they call for assassination of the IRGC Commander openly. These unwise policies of the US caused hatred against the country across the world."
Last month the United States accused the Islamic Republic of Iran of being involved in terror plot in the US soil. Iranian officials called the claim "baseless and unfounded."
Iran said the accusation aims to create disagreement between Iran and regional countries, particularly with Saudi Arabia.
Iran's Chief Nuclear Negotiator Saeed Jalili said on Friday the country would reveal documents about the US involvement in anti-Iran terror plots.
