You might be surprised to know that both the Libyan, Syrian and Iraqi government, led by Muammar Gaddafi, Hafez Al Assad, (succeeded by Bashaar Al Assaad) and Sadaam Hussein respectively, were socialist governments. Or Ba’ath Arab Socialist governments, to be precise.
Ba’ath Arab Socialism can be summed up in their constitutions supporting the values of: ‘freedom of the Arab world, freedom from foreign powers and freedom of socialism’.…The hidden agenda revealed, in case you had not been aware of it. This is a crusade to convert the world to capitalism under Western (American) dominance. "If you aren't with us, you are against us."
Propagating Western liberalism ("Western values") — human rights and "spreading freedom and democracy" — is used to justify neo-imperialism and neocolonialism in a way similar to how Christianity was formerly used to justify imperialism and colonialism.
It's a secular crusade, but a crusade nevertheless, and it is anti-liberal.
