Parts of it. The Pasdaran (Revolutionary Guards), the mostly Arab and foreign mercenary Basijis, the Ghods Brigade (special forces for overseas terrorism) and a few paramilitary groups whose role is to suppress dissent.
My focus on them is not fear of them as a military fighting force but a knowledge that they are the "bodyguards" for the Mullahs and as long as they are there, the mentally and spiritually exhausted populace will not move against the regime and their weapons.
