Ba'athism has more roots in fascism and anti-communism than communism. Arsuzi was part of the League of Nationalist Action that had a shirt movement before he founded Ba'athism with the other guys.

The Ba'athists translated Mein Kampf and other fascist/ns books too. Ba'athism literally means Rebirth in Arabic, obviously along the same lines as fascist palingenesis.

I don't know of any anti-semitic communists, maybe Castro and Che talked some shit. The problem is non-Europeans aren't really going to care about jews (except Arabs) because they don't have them fucking their countries, and European communists were all controlled by jewish finance to overthrow states that hadn't yet come fully under jewish domination. Whereas a communism movement in the third world could be genuinely socialist, none in the West were.

Castro was a huge philosemite and claimed to be Jewish. In general, I'd say that most Communist governments were more anti-Zionist than antisemitic. Stalin post-WW2 was probably the most antisemitic, and he was most likely killed by Jews on Purim 1953 for this reason. After the death of Stalin, most Communist countries just didn't have enough Jews around for them to become antisemitic. Jews tried to sink their hooks into e.g. China, but because they can't credibly pass themselves off as Chinese, they didn't have much success.

The Jewish support for Communist China was a thing at the beginning but the Chinese did manage to shake direct Jewish influence, likely due to the circumstance you described. Near the start of the CCP Jews helped them and cooperated with them via the USSR and there are pictures of communist kikes meeting with Mao himself or other Chinese communist leaders. Of course, the USSR and China eventually squabbled and grew apart and I think that's where the Jewish influence really started rapidly declining.
