Makes sense, especially, when you consider Saddam Hussein's full political party name. The Baath socialist party. They have since pretty much dropped use of the socialist label, but the ideology behind them baath both in syria and in iraq was founded on nationalism and socialism (this is why Iraq was, for the most part, secualer, socialists hate god). The Baath is syria still does claim socialism roots, and has kept itself a little bit closer to its origins then Saddam's did. However, in regards to religion, the Baath, have managed to maintain a more islamic image, as when you have a country full of terrorists who are islamofacists, it is not wise to stur the hornets nest, unless you intend to keep them on your side and do business with them, as Saddam always did.

In fact, the two nations most similar to Iraq in this manner of 'party fidelity' and political repression are North Korea and Cuba. In North Korea, whole families are sent to labor camp for the 'crime' of one family member who acts disloyally to the North Korean regime.

if you ever really want to tick off liberals, don't use the acronym NAZI, use the full name "National Socialist Workers Party", it drives them nuts and creates alot of funny moments.

Yes, the Stasi in East Germany kept much more extensive files on the population than their Nazi predecessors.
