 Jadid 's government was the most radical administration in Syria 's history . The coup created a permanent schism between the Syrian and Iraqi regional branches of the Ba 'ath Party and their respective National Commands , with many senior Syrian Ba 'athists defecting to Iraq . As a legacy of the coup , during Jadid 's rule , Syria initiated a propaganda campaign against the Iraqi Ba 'athists . Jadid 's government would be overthrown in the Corrective Movement of 1970 , which brought Hafez al @-@ Assad to power .
