Anyway, none of that means that he is not a foreign official.
Yeah, but it does add pretty important information into the "is he a terrorist or is he an official" equation.
He personally was labeled a terrorist through 3 different Presidents, he personally armed/trained/led forces to kill hundreds of US troops, and he targeted civilians. His people trained and armed bomb makers to distribute IEDs everywhere, including against civilian targets. He did all of this in Yemen, Iraq, and Syria. He was helping Assad as they used chemical weapons on their own citizens.
He went well past foreign official territory.
