The New Dark Age

Iran’s nuclear programme may be of concern to much of the international community today, but what can world leaders learn from Iraq’s quest to acquire nuclear weapons?

Imad Khadduri, one of the few Iraqi nuclear scientists to witness the rise and fall of Saddam Hussein’s nuclear programme, joins the show.

Khadduri tells Inside Iraq who helped Iraq in its nuclear efforts, how a country can secretly develop the technology to build the bomb and what lessons learnt from Iraq can be applied to Iran.

This episode of Inside Iraq aired from Friday, June 12, 2009.
