Absolutely. If they're going to ban the Ba'ath Party, there's no reason they shouldn't outlaw Islamism, which is 1000x worse.

If the Ba'ath Party is banned, there's no reason why not.

No. The Ba'ath Party should not be banned either.

So what about banning the Ba'ath Party? Is that democracy?

No, it's not democracy. The Ba'ah Party shouldn't be banned even if it's not a good party.

Outlawing parties - any parties - is rather undemocratic. And outlawing parties that have mass support is not just antithetical to democracy but is also frigging useless.

All religious parties should be outlawed everwhere, and their members fed to the doctrinally or historically appropriate animal.

The Baath Party ruled over a period of time resembling that of Germany under Hitler and the NSDAP. To not ban such a party is fairly stupid.

And the Shiite Islamist Parties represent Khomeinism? Whats the difference?
