As vice president under the ailing General Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr, and at a time when many groups were considered capable of overthrowing the government, Saddam created security forces through which he tightly controlled conflicts between the government and the armed forces. In the early 1970s, Saddam nationalized oil and foreign banks leaving the system eventually insolvent mostly due to the Iran–Iraq War, the Gulf War, and UN sanctions.[11] Through the 1970s, Saddam cemented his authority over the apparatus of government as oil money helped Iraq's economy to grow at a rapid pace. Positions of power in the country were mostly filled with Sunni Arabs, a minority that made up only a fifth of the population.[12] Official portrait of Saddam Hussein in Saddam formally rose to power in 1979, although he had already been the de 1979 facto head of Iraq for several years.

Amoureux de la nature et défenseur des peuples oubliés, il refuse fermement que mondialisation rime avec uniformisation. Car chaque peuple a ses spécificités, ses traditions, sa vision du monde et sa manière d'y vivre, qu'il entend légitimement préserver et poursuivre. A cet égard, la géopolitique permet de mieux appréhender les finesses des différentes cultures, contribuant ainsi à les préserver. De fait, pour Olivier Weber, on ne peut Olivier Weber et Jean-François Fiorina au Festival de géopolitique de appréhender toute la richesse et la complexité du Grenoble de mars 2015 : la géopolitique permet de comprendre la logique intime des autres cultures. monde que si l'on s'efforce au préalable de décrypter les arcanes de l'humain.
