"The only way the IRGC [ Guardians of the Islamic Revolution Corps] will be forced to go back to the barracks and stop its business activities is for it to remain in the sanctions list."

These are not the words of some disgruntled Iranian expatriate outside Iran wishing for a regime change. Rather this was said on 17th April, during a group debate on the social media audio platform, Clubhouse , by Faezeh Rafsanjani, the daughter of a former president of the Islamic Republic of Iran who died in 2017. Her father, Ali Akbar Rafsanjani, was not just a former president either; he was one of the main pillars and founders of the Islamic revolution in Iran in 1979.
