One more of these "Greater Iraq" bullshit maps - but rival to the other "Greater Iraq" maps of this author. Yes, there is a "Greater Syria" concept existing, as well as "Greater Israel", "Greater Armenia" and so on. However, neither the Hashemites nor The Baathists ever announced a "Greater Iraq" plan officially. This word combination is your own creation. The Iraqi branch of the Arab Socialist Baath Party also adopted the idea of the United Fertile Crescent or the United Euphrat valley but moreover they wanted the leadership in the whole Arab world (watan) from Mauretania to Oman. The Baath would not have been satisfied with a "Greater Iraq" only. Therefore Baathist parties also exist(ed) in Mauritania, Sudan, Yemen and Bahrain. But the problem is not only the wrong name "Greater Iraq", the problem is that you name the claims over Arabistan as "confirmed" without giving such a confirmation. All Iraqi-baathist documents I know they always only spoke about the right of self determation of the Arab people of Arabistan, they never said directly Arabistan should be annexed as part of Iraq. Please show me some sources which say so. Furthermore the claim over al-Hasa. If you do not know enough then better you keep the fingers off that topic. Please do not become angry about this advice. --Roxanna (talk) 08:36, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
