1979 Ba'ath Party Purge Baath Party History
Saddam Hussein’s 1979 purge was a calculated move to consolidate absolute power shortly after becoming Iraq’s president. He falsely accused 68 Ba’ath Party members of a Syrian-backed plot to overthrow him, eliminating potential rivals and instilling fear to ensure loyalty.
