The slogan "Unity, liberty, socialism" is the key tenet in Ba'athist thought.[55] Unity stood for the creation of an independent, strong Arab Nation.[56] Liberty did not mean liberal democracy, but rather freedom from colonial oppression and freedom of speech and thought.[57] Aflaq believed that the Ba'ath Party, at least in theory, would rule, and guide the people, in a transitional period of time without consulting the people,[58] however he did support intra-party democracy.[59] The last tenet, 'socialism', did not mean socialism as defined in the West, but rather a unique form of Arab socialism.[60] According to Ba'athist thought, socialism had originated under the rule of the Prophet Muhammad.[60] The original interpretation of Arab socialism did not answer questions regarding economic equality or how much state control was necessary, but instead focused on freeing the Arab Nation and its people from colonization and oppression in general.[60]
