Interesting article in terms of the way its written.

Many countries today have military units, attachments, departments, regiments, whatever label they are given for the overall purpose of general national security.

Navy Seals, Marines, Rangers, SAS, Spetnaz, GIGN, and on and on.

Even - MI5 MI6 NSA CIA FBI

Yet this article which if you read the wording over and over basically aligns this guard with terrorism. suggests it has some kind of authoritarian control that is dangerous, renegade, and has hostile intent.

However your top military assets will often be deployed to protect your most vital resources, secure your most valued resources, guard them, defend them, and plan for any and all scenarios of hostility.

NATO forces can run exercises and simulations to consider possible defences against a future aggressor.

Iran therefore would also seek to consider its defence and force against most likely Israel and the USA.

One is a training exercise

The other is considered potential terrorist

Anyone remember the republican guard ?
