IRAN SANCTION’S BACKFIRE

Should the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps be officially designated a terrorist organisation?

Politicians and activists say yes.
But geopolitics isn’t about slogans — it’s about outcomes.

In this video, I break down the IRGC Catch-22:
why sanctioning Iran’s Revolutionary Guard may actually strengthen the regime, unify its enforcers, and prevent internal collapse.

We look at:

How the IRGC functions as Iran’s state infrastructure, not just a militia

Why timing matters more than moral grandstanding

How proscription can eliminate exit routes for commanders and harden loyalty

The risks of fragmentation, splinter militias, and nuclear-adjacent chaos

Where Keir Starmer, Washington, and Western containment strategy really fit in

History shows that totalitarian systems don’t fall because outsiders intervene — they fall when insiders stop believing the centre will hold.

The real question isn’t whether the IRGC is evil.
It’s whether the West is being strategic — or dangerously naive.
