Saddam Witness - Iraq

Jan 2007
Karwan Taufik barely survived the gas attack on his village which nearly blinded him. Now, he is one of the main witnesses in the Anfal trial. We accompany him back to the village where it all began.

"My charge is against everyone in Saddam's regime who participated in the genocide of the Kurdish people", he states. Karwan was chosen out of thousands of victims to testify because the effects of the gas attacks are still so obvious. He is almost totally blind. In court, Karwan describes what happened after his village of Shangse was bombed with chemical gas. "Whenever I am in Shangse, old wounds are re-opened". Now, despite the painful memories, he has returned. He shows us round a prison where his comrades were tortured to death and to the field where the bombs fell.

@BlackHawk790 You're an idiot. Iran never deployed Chemical or Biological weapons against Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War.

Iran wasn't supplied Chemical Weapons & Technology by American and European firms like Iraq was.

Nor did they commit genocide.

Iran used all kinds of weapons and so did Iraq. It was a battlefield and you cant blame Saddam Hussein. Who used gas from the beggining? Dont blame Saddam the Iraqi President.
