Synagogues are places where Jews meet for worship and study.
William Penn is most famously associated with being a member of The Religious Society of Friends, also known as the Quakers. Before that he was a member of the Church of England (Anglican).
He was a founder of Georgia though I'm not sure what group he would belong to.
a religious group is a group of people that have the same religion.

The Kurds (an ethnic group) and the Shiite Arabs (a religious group) were the most prominent of Saddam Hussein's ethnic/religious adversaries, but many smaller groups like the Marsh Arabs, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Turcomans (Iraqi Turkmen), the Jews, the Yazidis, Catholics, etc. were also targeted by Saddam Hussein.
The two pieces of the question do not fit together. The "religious group comprises a majority of Iraqi population" was the Twelver Shiite Muslims and the "religious group that held political authority and economic power under the Saddam Hussein" was the Sunni Muslims. The Sunnis were an empowered minority while the Shiites were a powerless majority.
Saddam Hussein was a horrible person. He attacked nearly everyone who opposed his reign or was from outside of his Sunni Arab ethnic group. Saddam Hussein repressed the Sunni, Shiite, and Yazidi Kurds because they sought to have an independent country and gain equality with Arab Iraqis. Saddam Hussein preferred to maintain a discriminatory and prejudicial system.

As a Sunni, Saddam Hussein was suspicious that the Shiite population of Iraq was sympathetic to Iran (an Shiite Islamic theocracy). The Sunnis and the Shiities have been at odds with each other for centuries (just as the Protestant and Catholic divisions continue in Northern Ireland).
