Saeed Khan Updates On Iraq After U.S.-Withdrawal

Thursday, January 5, 2011

The United States completed its military withdrawal from Iraq last month, followed by reports of increased violence within the country. Saeed Khan, a Wayne State University expert and lecturer on Political Islam and the Muslim diaspora, joins Craig to talk about the issues now facing Iraq--what led up to them, as well as the country's current direction. They discuss Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta, the disconnect between the Bush administration and the CIA, and more.
