It does look vaguely like one of Saddam's palaces.  It has what looks like this kind of wall around it, and is essentially a compound with a checkpoint/gatehouse, some distance from the actual buildings.  And it is built in a Middle Eastern/Persian sort of style.

Not to mention the swimming pool, the doubled-decked garages, the meticulously landscaped (and irrigated) lawns and gardens.  God knows what it looks like on the inside.

I saw the place in person for the first time last May.  There are a number of particularly gaudy and obscenely overdone mansions in the hills of Malibu, of which Rawat's is only one.  Actually, a few of the others are uglier than Rawat's.

The 707 also had a Middle Eastern decor, and partly for that reason, there was a rumor going around that it was being built for some Sultan in the Middle East, or a member of the Saudi royal family.  I think they actually tried to fan that rumor to deflect that it was for Rawat, who, as Cynthia will tell you, was referred to not by his name, but as "the client" at DECA.
