The three stars stand for the union among Iraq, Egypt and Syria.

===

The meaning of the three stars has changed over time. Originally the three stars were supposed to symbolize Iraq's aspiration to join the United Arab Republic (UAR), which was a union between Egypt and Syria. Under Saddam Hussein, the meaning of the three stars was changed to the three fundamental tenets of the Ba'ath party: Unity, Freedom, Socialism.
