“The Iraqi Baath Socialist Party was modelled in large part on admiration for European National Socialist and Fascist movements, hoped to emulate them especially in their nationalism against the West. But mutated by Saddam Hussein it became also one that very, very much admired, and grew a special moustache in admiration of the work of Yosif Vissarionovitch Dzugashvili, the great Georgian known to us historically as Stalin. So you had him in modern Iraq, a regime in our own time, that was openly, directly modelled upon the two most extreme examples of European totalitarianism.” TwoPartyKnownModernSpecialExampleMovementGrewWestIraqExtremesNationalismAdmirationRegimesSocialistSaddamHusseinTotalitarianismFascistsEmulateMoustacheSocialist PartyGeorgians Author:Christopher Hitchens
“My dancing came about as a way to be cool, actually. I knew early on that I was not a street kid.

“My grandmother was also an active member of the tenants association and a staunch supporter of the Democratic Party, and both of my parents were extremely liberal, so I think I grew up in a household that was very politically conscious - we all watched the elections on TV, and we watched the debates. So it was an awareness that we were raised with, and as we grew into young adults, we just naturally became politically active. It was just understood that it was important, that it was our responsibility.” ThinkingImportantYoungParentPartyResponsibilityAwarenessTvsGrewMembersGrew UpConsciousUnderstoodAdultsElectionDemocraticRaisedYoung AdultActiveDebateGrandmotherAssociationHouseholdSupporterMy GrandmotherDemocratic PartyTenants Author:Scarlett Johansson
