60 minutes. Curve ball [Rafid Ahmed Alwan]
Description
Among intelligence officers, his code name was 'Curve Ball,' and he became the United States' most important source to prove that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Who was this Iraqi scientist whose information convinced the U.S. to go to war against Iraq? And how did he fool the world's elite intelligence agencies? Bob Simon's two-year investigation includes never-before-seen images of Rafid Ahmed Alwan, the conman who helped launch a war.
