Zaki al-Arsuzi
In 1938, his former secretary general "offer its cooperation to the French authorities." The opposite trend to the Secretary General then causes the bursting of the Ligue. The following year, after the death of its first president, Abderrazak al-Dandashli, the League broke up, but one of its most active militants, Zaki al-Arsuzi, set up the Club of Arabism (Nadi al 'Uruba) and became one of the founders of the Ba'ath Party.
