Former Mossad agent and chairman of the National Council for Jewish Restitution, Rafi Eitan, shares what he thinks President Obama needs to do about Iran, and looks back at his days hunting Nazi war criminals.

“The Shia in Iraq are, in practice, a tool in the hands of Iranians. I would say that when Americans leave Iraq, we are facing that Iran through the Shia of Iraq will win and dominate at least a part of Iraq. Some people say that today there is some agreement between Iran and Turkey, that the Turkish will dominate the northern part of Iraq, including the Kurds, while the Iranians, the southern part, including Baghdad,” Eitan told RT.
