Saddam Hussein controlled the Republican Guard of Iraq... ![Derr](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies2/eusa_naughty.gif)
The Revolutionary Guard of Iran is under the direct control of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
It is led by Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani, who is also Commander in Chief of the regular armed forces.
That makes for a nice, large personal army for the Ayatollah, now doesn't it?
