Okay, we're still talking about little plastic action figures that are based on made up people fighting a make believe terrorist organization right?

I had taken Declassified to be a snarky way of making fun of the current Classified product line. (I must admit, that those figures are getting better since the first wave, but I don't plan on ever purchasing an action figure in that scale.)
We probably shouldn't call it Declassified, because the fellas at Joe Declassifed really do some great work with their research and displays.

Nope, not at all. I just keep all of the action figures which I collect in the same scale (that's more difficult to do than it sounds, when comparing how each of the action figures keep getting larger through the years).
I used to have quite the model railroad collection, when I shared that hobby with my dad, and we kept all of the tracks, engines, and scenario dios in the same scale. For me, I try to keep G.I. Joe in the same scale too. It's kind of like model railroads I guess.

The last time Cobra was referred to as a “terrorist” group was in the initial shipments of GI Joe vs Cobra in 2002. Packaging was VERY quickly changed to remove the term.

Yeah, it happened 20 years ago when REAL terrorist (once something relatively foreign to most Americans, or “other countries’ problem”) hijacked 4 commercial airliners and flew (or tried to in one case) them into the heart of the United States political center and into skyscrapers at the heart of the most populous city on the planet.
