The Baath Party experiments in Syria, as in Iraq, the use of military personnel to jump to power, and ended with the commander of the individual Baathist mainly on ruling center under the banner of party, to hide the logo later behind the «eternal leader» who governs alone, on behalf of the party after the re-drafting of its leaders national and country to ensure that all of its power and thus its institutions on the state of military and civilian all. Attempts Baath Party began to enter into power in Iraq with the success of the revolution of July 14, 1958, led by leader Abdul Karim Kassem. But the communists were closer to the leader, and so it has foiled a plan Baathists, then persuaded the leader and helped him «uprooted» under the motto «MACON leader only cream». We will see Baghdad after three years «ie in 1961,» an attempt to assassinate Abdul Karim Kassem, organized by the Baathists, as a starting point of the revolution. But the attempt did not succeed, and ended up with the arrest of most of the Baathist leaders «Saddam Hussein was among those who tried to carry out the assassination, was shot wounded the day». Some leaders who escaped were able to afford it to Syria, and moved them to live some time in Egypt as political refugees .. Among them was Saddam Hussein himself. After that it will succeed a second attempt of the coup in which the Baathists, but its leadership was for the military, and specifically to Abdul Salam Arif, who was the second man in the revolution of 1958. Again, the soldiers deliberately after a while, to curtail the role of the Baathists. Then came the fall of Abdul Salam Arif plane, in some parts of Iraq, to provide an opportunity for his brother Abdul Rahman Arif, in order to assume the pinnacle of power in Baghdad. It would be the Baathists to re-weave alliances with some of the military as a prelude to jump to power on July 17, 1968. Then they will have to describe their allies of the military gradually even restored it to them completely, under the leadership of Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr, but the power stabilized actually the hands «the rule of Attorney» Saddam Hussein, the eldest sibling. It was obvious that the pristine disappear completely after a while to settle to power, all the power in the hands of Saddam Hussein was sentenced solo until the US invasion of Iraq in April 2003.
