In this inaugural episode of Sibylline's "Power Players" series, Intelligence Analyst Claire Brady delves into the enigmatic and influential Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Established in 1979 by Ayatollah Khomeini, the IRGC was created to protect the Islamic Revolution and has since evolved into a socio-military, political and economic force. With a vast network, the IRGC commands significant influence both within Iran and internationally. From controlling Iran's missile program to influencing elections and managing a business empire, the IRGC's reach now extends far beyond its original mandate.
Each episode of Power Players will dive into one major actor shaping our world. That could mean a government, a militia, a political movement, an intelligence agency—or even a global corporation that is orchestrating, pushing, and maybe even puppeteering, the world’s most pivotal, dangerous and influential events.
These episodes are narrative-driven, grounded in intelligence analysis, and occasionally feature expert soundbites or quotes. All are researched, written, and hosted by Intelligence Analyst Claire Brady, edited by our media producer with review and input from our regional desks and analysts to ensure accuracy. You’ll still hear our regular Insight Episodes on this channel—but Power Players will now appear alongside them, as a reliable way to keep up with the key names and groups driving global events.
