Generally speaking critical of the purge mentality with the CPA-I (in my opinion driven by some in Washington simple mindedly associating Baath with some vague ideas on Communism and Nazi Party.)

Makes the useful point that much of core Baath ideology sounds rather like what the Bush Administration claims to be working at. Secular republic.
