 How dictator Saddam Hussein got power   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The military coup which brought General Abdul Karim Qassim to power was immensely popular: huge demonstrations greeted the overthrow of the monarchy and the hated government of Nuri al-Said.
Qassim and his team were nervous of rival nationalists, in the army and outside it, who were more sympathetic to Nasser, among these being the (then still very small) Ba’th Party.
When Qassim was about to be overthrown in 1963 there were mass demonstrations calling for the arming of the people; and throughout the period there were strong elements of genuine popular mobilisation: the masses were more than simply a stage army for the military or the ICP—within which the working class itself was very important.
