The US has revealed plans to add Iran's Revolutionary
Guards to its list of outlawed terrorist organisations
Barely a month after Iran and the US made diplomatic contact after 25 years the US has revealed plans to add Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps to its list of outlawed foreign terrorist organisations.

Inside Story explores what may happen next.
