The masses are controlled by a demagogue. The Supreme Leader, who's true mission is only known to his inner circle, the leaders of the Revolutionary Guards, otherwise known as the Quds Force. Some experts believe the Revolutionary Guard Corps was created as a counterweight to the regular military, to protect the revolution against a possible coup. By establishing the Revolutionary Guard Corps Khomeini was attempting to avoid a repeat of a successful coup in 1953 that ousted a previous revolutionary government. The Revolutionary Guard Corps began deploying fighter abroad during the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), the Quds Force, the paramilitary arm of the Revolutionary Guard Corps with 10,000 to 15,000 soldiers emerged as the intelligence arm of the Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Revolutionary Guards Corps is the spine of the current political structure in Iran, and is also a major player in the Iranian economy, a state within a state.

The bomb's explosive mechanism was a gas-enhanced device consisting of compressed butane in canisters combined with pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PENT) to create a fuel-air explosive. The bomb was carried on a layer of concrete covered with a slab or marble to direct the blast upward. The bomb was so powerful that the force of the explosion initially lifted the entire four-story structure, shearing the bases of the concrete support columns, each measuring fifteen feet in circumference and reinforced by numerous one-and-three-quarter-inch steel rods. The airborne building fell in upon itself. A massive shock wave and ball of flaming gas was hurled outward in all directions. The explosion was estimated to be equivalent to 21,000 pounds of TNT. The bomb is believed to be the largest man-made, non-nuclear explosion in history. The suicide bomber needed a Mercedes Benz water truck to deliver the bomb. The world changed overnight and Americans were glued to their television sets watching the events unfold right before their very eyes.

Americans watched as the exiled cleric Ayatollah Khomeini arrived at the airport in Tehran greeted by millions of Iranians, then the young revolutionary government made him the leader of their new revolution. Khomeini would support the hostage takers at the American Embassy and declared that America was the Great Satan. Since that day in history, the United States and Iran have been fighting an undeclared war which still goes on to this day. Iran is attempting to challenge the world for the Middle East and the Persian Gulf which holds 55% of the world's oil reserves. Iran has now reached a point where it has access to modern weapons and the experience to plan and carry out its strategy. Iran with its advanced missiles positioned along the Persian Gulf have the capability to shut off Gulf exports in a matter of minutes. The game has changed and the United States and the world needs to rethink its strategy.
