Iraq's royal history under spotlight

More than 50 years since the revolution that removed Iraq's monarchy, many people are now learning more about the country's royal history. The governor of Baghdad has even suggested that the government should apologise for the murder of the king and his family. As Iraqis are finally facing that part of their history, many flocking to an exhibition of royal memorabilia. Al Jazeera's Jane Arraf reports from Baghdad.

You prohibited a commentor not to call others as 'idiots'. I am now over the top of my head overly surprised you called the professor as 'stupid'. Talk about teaching others....duhh

0:29.. Iraqs golden age??? are you stupid??? Iraqs golden age was at the Medieval times during the Abbasid era. Where Iraq was he capital of science and knowledge in the world. Where people from all over the world came to study.

Have some respect and dont call others idiots. It shows what kind of person you are. Many of these Iraqis have never seen good in there life, they dont even know what neo-colonialism is yet alone this new thing called democaracy to them. Over 30 years of sactions gives this effect. I'm against British imperialism and royalty, but them days of Iraq where good days where people had good and simple lifes, not like today.
