Is that what you derive from "Baghdadi's hot at the moment"? Lol A fetish seriously? Who taught you English?
No tangible evidence of former Baathist involvement but mere conspiracy theories, what we know for a fact is the religious fervor among the radicalized Muslim crowd to support and fight for ISIS to the extent that even well settled Muslims migrated with their families to fight and live alongside them after enjoying freedom in western nations. Too many left from the Muslim countries too, if you advocate eradicating lines from the map, perhaps you should follow suit and take a flight to Baghdad.
