"And if the people raise a great howl against my barbarity and cruelty, I will answer that war is war and not popularity seeking. If they want peace, they and their relatives must stop the war." - William Tecumseh Sherman

The Ba'ath party has socialist revolutionary roots. If you can point to a single such group who hasn't fractured I will lick your boots clean.
The USSR split with China. Was there a terribly big difference between the internal politics in the two countries? Nope. Neither is there much of a difference between Assad and Saddam. Saddam adopted an "Iraq first"-policy which lead to aggressive foreign relations, but unless you're claiming support based on foreign policy(which rvg does not) that does not matter one bit.
....And with that you just invalidated your own position, since it's certainly not you(and not your "group" either) who suffers under Assad's yoke.

Over the years, and especially in my younger days, I've discussed and argued a lot with people who defend Stalin(and a few who defend Mao).
It amuses me to see you using the exact same arguments and logic as they do.
As for myself, I've gown tired of arguing with people who defend bloody and tyrannical mass-murderers. You get to a point where you just can't be bothered anymore. I limit myself to reading other people write of how they've argued with people who defend bloody and tyrannical mass-murderers.
