Iraq: The Alcohol Smugglers

Special | 6m 40s

Kurds deliver contraband liquor to Iran.

With Iraq mired in a chaotic civil war, those who can get out are doing so. According to the latest United Nations figures, 50,000 Iraqis a month are now leaving their country. Those who remain try to survive any way they can, like the resourceful Kurdish smugglers in this week's Rough Cut.
