More than a thousand people were killed in violence in Iraq last
month according to the United Nations. The country appears to be
dividing along religious lines, not helped by its neighbour
Syria's descent into civil war. Sarah Montague talks to Ayad
Allawi, the country's first Prime Minister after Saddam Hussein.
He has accused the current Prime Minister, Nouri Al Maliki, of
turning into a dictator. So what hope is there now for keeping
the peace in Iraq?
