IRG is the right people

Hello, I have a piece of dialogue between US marines that I can't understand.

Domingo: Yo, does anyone else really not get what we're doing here?

Ben: Quit being a peace-loving hippie, Dom.

Domingo: Just saying, bro, if this is about the IRG, we should be in Iran, not Iraq.

Ben: They're crossing borders, dog. IRG is the right people, all right? They don't make them any righter.

Why does Ben call the IRG (the Iranian Revolutionary Guards) the "right" people? Does he say that they are correct in judgment, action, etc? That seems rather strange in the given context... So, if this suggestion is wrong, then could you please define the 'right' here? Thank you.

A common use of "right" is to identify something: "Is this the right one?"
