competitor on the campus of the Syrian University and other
education institutions, it could make only little progress
among students before 1961. Nevertheless, it embarked on a

created after the dissolution of the union with Egypt in 1961.

in an effort to increase the pressure on the Ba'thists who
were wavering on the question of reestablishing the union
