Iran has a dual military system with a regular armed forces as well as the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). Both report directly to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but this system seems to have been copied from some other dude who called himself 'Leader'... I forgot his name...

That would be "Maximum Leader" General Manuel "Pineapple" Noreiga. No, sorry, it's "Dear Leader" Kim "I'm so ronery" Jong-il. Or is it "Big Daddy" Idi Amin? Or Saddam Hussein?

I can't keep all these psychos straight!

The Baath party was set up as an explicitly Nazi-modeled party. "Iran" was renamed from "Persia" to mirror the name "Aryan" to please the Nazis.
