AHC: make Gaddafi’s “Amazon Guard” more notorious & “bad@$$”

Before the Libyan civil war I recall there being a lot of speculation about the nature and effectiveness of Gaddafi’s all-female personal bodyguards. After the civil war reports emerged that they weren’t all that motivated (something I don’t entirely believe seeing that one of them did take an assassin’s bullet for Gaddafi) and were used as sex-slaves by Libyan officials.

So the challenge here is to find a way to make Libya’s “Amazon Guard” notorious internationally as a crack, elite force. Bonus points if at some point after their formation they evolve from Muammar private guards into spetsnaz-esque Libyan special forces.

(If anyone is wondering why I created this challenge, it is because of the guards inherent AH-ness and comic-book coolness (I am not saying that there is anything cool about the way Gaddafi reportedly treated his guards, just that the very idea of an all-female paramilitary force is “cool” in its own way))
 
Making use of connections in the USSR&PRC during the Cold War? Maybe a trade of favours/resources to get Training from the USSR&PRC Military&Intelligence Services for the Amazon Guard? Im thinking Spetznaz,KGB etc too. Wuxia/Martial Arts from PRC? Ambidextrous training? Even some training in Gymnastics&Ballet from both Countries famed Olympic Coaches could be of use. There used to be rumours that USSR had promising Gymnasts get lowest Ribs surgically removed to increase flexibility etc. True/False?
 
Set themselves up as Praetorians? The President for Life is appointed and removed by them?
Which IMO is the primary reason, even more so than any sexism, that the AHC here isn't fullfillable. Just like the allMale Arab militaries are notoriously ill-led on the higher levels due to deliberate policy of keeping the military from becoming a threat. Any effective Amazon Guard would be a potential threat for any "officeholder".
