Canlı Yayında Arkadaşlarını Ölüme Gönderen Diktatör: Saddam’ın 1979 Darbesi

On July 16, 1979, Saddam Hussein orchestrated one of history's most cold-blooded and terrifying conspiracies to become the sole ruler of Iraq. Hundreds of party members gathered in the al-Khuld hall in Baghdad experienced the most horrific hours of their lives behind locked doors. While Saddam calmly smoked his cigar, he had the names of his closest associates read out one by one; those remaining in the hall, terrified for their lives, stood and applauded him. This documentary examines in detail the secret Syrian plan behind the 1979 Ba'ath Party purge, the psychological terror experienced in the congress hall, Saddam's "shared sin" strategy, and how this event has affected Turkey and the entire Middle East to this day. ⏱️ SECTIONS (TIMESTAMPS): 00:00 Hook & Hour of Terror 00:50 Behind the Scenes: The Road to 1979 03:35 The Secret Plan: The Crisis of Unification with Syria 05:33 The July 22nd Congress: Live Execution List 09:35 The "Common Sin" Strategy 11:32 Turkey and its Effects on the Region (Kurdish Issue & Wars) 13:42 Closing: His Legacy in Today's Middle East #SaddamHussein #HistoryDocumentary #Iraq #History #MiddleEast #PoliticalHistory Other Videos: History of the Week: The Fall of the Ottoman Empire and Karlofça:    • Haftanın Tarihi: Osmanlı'nın Düşüşü Ve Kar...   Abdi İpekçi Assassination | Unsolved Murder | History of the Week:    • Abdi İpekçi Suikasti | Çözül(e)meyen Cin...   Why Was İskilipli Atıf Executed? | History of the Week:    • İskilipli Atıf Neden İdam Edildi? | Hafta...   The Period of Despotism in the Ottoman Empire and Abdul Hamid II | The End of the First Constitutional Era | History of the Week:    • Osmanlı'da İstibdat Dönemi ve II. Abdülh...   Coup Attempt Against Democracy in Spain: 23-F | History of the Week:    • İspanya'da Demokrasiye Darbe Girişimi: 2...   Reichstag Fire | Hitler's Secret Coup | History of the Week:    • Reichstag Yangını | Hitler'in Gizli Darbes...   Vak'a-i Vakvakiye (The Plane Tree Incident) | The Bloodiest Military Coup in the Ottoman Empire | History of the Week:    • Vak'a-i Vakvakiye (Çınar Olayı) | Osmanlı'...   The Assassination of Julius Caesar | Rome's Darkest Day | History of the Week:    • Jül Sezar Suikasti | Roma'nın En Karanlık...   Nightmare in the Tokyo Metro: Aum Shinrikyo and Sarin Gas Attack | History of the Week:    • Tokyo Metrosu’nda Kâbus: Aum Shinrikyo ve ...   Kyrgyzstan's Tulip Revolution: The Story of a Popular Uprising | History of the Week:    • Video   Playlist Events:    • Olaylar   Social Media: Facebook:   / haftanintarihi   Instagram:   / haftanintarihi   X: https://x.com/HaftaninTarihi History is the bridge between the past and the present.
