Saddam's Bombmaker _ Escape to Freedom _History Channel_

There's one important defector from Iraq who lived to tell his story--Dr. Khidir Hamza, who spent 20 years developing Iraq's atomic weapons program. Based on a book he co-wrote with Jeff Stein, "Saddam's Bombmaker: The Terrifying Inside Story of the Iraqi Nuclear and Biological Weapons Agenda", Hamza paints an unprecedented portrait of Hussein--his women, drunken rages, murder of underlings, and unrivaled power--and talks of his harrowing escape and first encounter with skeptical CIA agents.
