Abla and Bitar returned to Damascus from Paris and went to middle schools and universities to teach. They regularly contribute to the weekly magazine of producers of * * * and carry out propaganda against the "mandated rule" in France. Abla was arrested by the authorities on 1939, and both he and Bitar were fined by the Syrian Minister of Education for opposing the "imperialist" teaching system and plan. 1942 10 in June, they resigned as teachers and joined the political movement. At the same time, Abla and Bitar set up the Syrian Committee to support Rashid Ali's Iraqi regime. The Committee is a pioneer organization of the Baath Party.
Abla and Bitar ran for the Syrian parliament in 1943, 1947 and 1949 respectively, but both failed. After that, Abla vowed not to run for parliament, while Bitar successfully ran for parliament in 1954, becoming a representative of Damascus, and later served as a minister for many times. From 1940s to 1950s, he was a scholar and practical organizer of Baath Party. The Baath Party's political proposition is to overthrow western rule, unify the Arab nation and carry out "socialist" reform, and its program revolves around three slogans: "unity, freedom and socialism". This is a pan-Arabist political party, and its early members are mostly students, teachers, lawyers, doctors and intellectuals from poor classes. 1in July 1943, about 10 Baath Party members issued a statement, which most people thought marked the formal establishment of Baath Party. The Baath Party has developed rapidly. 1944 merged with the Arab Baath party founded in 1939 by another pan-Arabist and middle school teacher, Zaki Asucci. 1in April, 947, the two parties jointly held the first revival party congress and set up a five-member leading group headed by Abla. The number of people in party member has rapidly increased from several hundred to 4,500.
1952 merged with the Arab Socialist Party founded by pan-Arabist Congressman Akram Haranyi in 1950, and was officially named the Arab Baath Socialist Party. From 1950s to early 1960s, Baath Party has developed into a huge Syrian political party organization.
The organizational structure of Baath Party is very unique. Its basic unit is a group, consisting of 4 to 7 people, with a team leader. The leader of each group will form another group, so that it will extend upward layer by layer until the highest leader. The whole system is divided into five levels, the highest level is called the national leading body (equivalent to the central committees of other parties), and the general secretary, the "group leader", is called "Ahmed". Divided into "natural party member", "elected party member", "main party member" and "ordinary party member". The powers and responsibilities at all levels are different. In the early days, "Amede" had great power. He appointed and dismissed all leadership positions and decided to join the Party in party member at all levels except "Natural party member". The structure of this system is basically vertical, and each party member only has horizontal connection with the members of this group, and there is no connection between groups. This was established to meet the needs of secret struggle.
Baath party defines itself as the whole Arab world, regardless of the country. Therefore, in the process of establishment, it spread to areas outside Syria and established local branches-called regional leading institutions, including Iraq.
Iraq is an active pan-Arabism country, so Baath Party quickly took root here. In the late 1940s, Baath Party pamphlets flooded into Iraq, circulated among intellectuals and spread to the society. A group of teachers, students, officials and workers agreed with its idea and became its colleagues. 1953, they published New Arabia, the first Iraqi newspaper to publicize Baath Party thought, and later renamed it Socialism. From 65438 to 0954, the leadership of the Iraqi Baath Party was established and its first congress was held, which marked the formal establishment of the Iraqi Arab Baath Socialist Party. The political program of the Iraqi Baath Party is very clear, that is, to overthrow the pro-Western, conservative Faisal dynasty, establish a state power led by the Baath Party, implement "socialist reform", and lead and promote the unity of the Arab nation. At the beginning of its establishment, the scale was not large. By the time of 1956, there were only 300 people in party member, but their activities were full of energy. In 1950s, it actively participated in a series of anti-western and anti-government struggles, with outstanding performance. During the preparation of the Baghdad agreement, Baath Party party member went deep into universities and factories to distribute protest statements. The government suppressed it, which is famous. 1955 joined the United front composed of several opposition parties such as the * * * production party, and with its aggressive struggle style and unique organization and mobilization ability, it soon became the second largest front force after the * * * production party. 1in the spring of 957, during the national election, the United front decided to passively boycott. Baath party did not participate in or support the election, but went its own way and opposed the election in a more intense way. Burn the ballot box. The Baath Party also helped the Kassem coup in July. These activities of the Baath Party not only made their own contributions to social change and progress, but also expanded their influence and won the understanding and support of more and more people. It has accumulated its own struggle experience, learned many effective methods to manage organizations, mobilize the masses and carry out struggles from the * * * production party and other parties, and its wings are gradually growing. Moreover, in the wave of reform from 65438 to 0957, Saddam Hussein, a young student from the north of tikrit County, also joined the party. The historical development several years later proves that this incident is of decisive significance to the growth of the Iraqi Baath Party and even to the reform of the whole country.
