** End of Impunity: Antifa, Public Enemy No. 1 ([link removed])

* The terrorist designation by the US federal government, which is not a slogan, derives from Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. § 1189) and from Executive Order 13224 (2001, Bush). Any foreign organization that threatens the security of US nationals or US national security must be placed on the FTO list and have its assets seized.
* The criteria are explicit: systematic use of violence, transnational scope, political intent. Antifa meets all three. It is a transnational terrorist organization whose existence much of the mainstream media stubbornly refuse to acknowledge.
* The State Department leaves no room for ambiguity: "Left-wing terrorism does not enjoy ideological immunity." Why is there not the same moral clarity in Western Europe?
* The American decision -- neither an ideological crusade nor a publicity stunt -- is a proportionate response to proven crimes. The four designated groups are not "radical activists": they are terrorists who kill, maim and destroy in the name of an outdated totalitarian utopia -- or even a not-outdated one -- that aligns itself with Islamic jihadists declaring that they would like to take over the planet. Liberal democracies have a duty to defend themselves — without complacency, without naïveté, and with the full rigor of the law.
* Can we in Europe expect Antifa members to be intercepted in the same manner as drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean?

On November 13, 2025, the US State Department added four European terrorist organizations to its list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs): Antifa Ost (Germany), the International Revolutionary Front (Italy), Armed Proletarian Justice (Greece) and Revolutionary Class Self-Defense (Greece).

This decision by the US administration was based on overwhelming evidence: knife and hammer attacks, shootings, bombings and the use of improvised explosive devices that targeted civilians, public infrastructure and private businesses.

The move forms part of a wider transatlantic dynamic launched by Hungary. In September 2025, the Hungarian government -- after a series of attacks in Budapest in which Antifa Ost torched police vehicles, destroyed shops, and carried out targeted assaults on right-wing activists -- designated the group as a terrorist organization. Earlier in September, the US classified Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
