Iraq
Israeli attack 'jump-started nuclear programme'
2006-06-06
And of course, it was all their fault. For an interview with one of the Israeli pilots, go here.
As part of a series marking 25 years since Israel bombed Iraq's Osirak nuclear reactor, former Iraqi nuclear scientist Dr Imad Khadduri speaks to the BBC News website:

"We had just finished a day's shift work and were back at our homes around 1800 [1500 GMT] that day. I heard the explosions all the way from my home, which is about 25km (16 miles) away.

I ran to the roof for a better view, and witnessed the smoke plumes rising from the area of the Tuwaitha Research Centre [where the Osirak reactor was located] and watched the Israeli planes flying west into the sunset.
