Anglo-saxons with there never ending propaganda. First with Iraq, now that they didn't find any of Sadaams weapons, they are trying to justify their war by depicting draining a swamp as an intentional plot to destroy rather than use the water for irrigation. Yet the U.S.A and Australia themselves have been draining marshlands for years to make room for agriculture. Secondly, the Vatican doesn't contain the history of the world, just Roman history, we have Chinese, Russian, Indian histories which they never give equal reverence. I am not even going to mention the historical records they destroyed in Egypt, Mexico and Africa at large. No one outside Europe cares about Vatican propaganda records
What a lovely story the Iraqi marshlands was. Goes to show you, the American Dream doesn't necessarily fulfill your heart. Thanks for bringing back these quiet stories.
I read about the Marsh Arabs years ago, and what Hussein did to them. I’m glad to hear they are reclaiming their culture and land. Nice reporting. Thanks.
A beautiful world. Watching them glide down the canals through the tall reeds was so lovely. Reminds me a bit of my wanderings through the marshes of my birthplace on the coast of North Carolina. Things of beauty that bind us together as watchful humans are, as he says, more important in many ways than chasing the often elusive and harrowing latter-day 'American Dream', particularly if reaching the dream leaves you feeling somewhat empty, after all. Thanks for making this.
No that frozen mountain god put there to cool the earth belongs to humanity and everything ! every animal that is going extinct! And every fish in the ocean !
@@austinmartinez2312 for sure! We as humans have destroyed everything beautiful! We really suck!! When my son was very little I took him on a boat ride.. - during the ride we happened to see a baby duckling dead in the water. I noticed there was something hanging out of the duck's mouth. My son noticed the durk so I lied and told him the duck was sleeping. As we made our way down the stream there was a condom that had teeth marks in it that's when I realized there was a condom hanging out of the dead Duck's mouth.. yup dead from gagging on a used condom...
Absolutely mesmerizing! The depth of research and the personal narratives combined with stunning visuals make this episode a masterpiece. From the devastating impact of Saddam's actions to the emotional return of the marshes and the brave work of engineers and locals, this episode captures it all beautifully. The cinematography and editing are top-notch, making it a must-watch for anyone interested in history, engineering, and environmental recovery
One thing I've noticed about pretty much all the Iraqis I've ever met is that they're somehow extremely world-weary and incredibly optimistic at the same time. Most of them have seen war and destruction and death in their homeland for as long as they've been alive, yet they have the perspective that comes from living in a place that's so old that it's the literal cradle of civilization. Like this gentleman said "So? The war isn't going to last forever". It's pretty amazing.
48:07 "Wohhhhhhhhh. Oh, my god! That was pretty intense, men!" One of the best clips 60M ever had. I remember I saw this video back in time and my heart was pounding! And even now, I still have same thrilling sensation of conquered spirit which I never done myself. This is real 60 minutes. And this was the '60 minutes' that I want to see in the future! Thanks for the reruns.
“If you are going to dream, dream big, it’s free!” What a beautiful outlook on life that man has. He is a beautiful soul. As far as the Vatican library goes, I’m a bibliophile, and it sends a shudder down my spine to see those historic books and manuscripts being handled with bare hands, exposing the pages to the oils of the skin, which, can stain and damage ancient texts.
This is awesome, simple things are a blessing, nature must not be tampered by and males or females , this beautiful world of wonders is created by the divine creator, unity is strength, Home is were the heart is, nuh were no better than yard.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
All Wash's father was named Car Wash. His grandfather was named Hog Wash. The Wash Dynasty began with a man named Wash, who discovered Water and was the first Marsh Harab to wash himself.
This must be what I saw people doing off of Mount Rainier last June!I caught a glimpse of at least one what I thought was some kind of insane base jumper,followed by his buddies skiing down Rainier. I was able to catch a brief video of the parachute portion as it was descending-completely airborne.I had just put my phone away after taking some great pictures of Mount St.Hellens,Mount Adams, and Mount Hood.I ran in to a father and son who were out looking for some rarely seen bird species. The son spotted the daredevils and I only got a brief glimpse of two different people airborne under some type of parafoils. If anyone knows who these people were,let me know.I would love to see their video footage! We were standing on Paradise Point in early June last year. It was almost equally as amazing as the natural beauty. Nothing human made can compete with the natural splendor of the Pacific Northwest. But seeing these people (and those in this video)is definitely one of the most amazing things I have seen people do.
It was funny seeing that satellite dish with the marsh people but it’s nice to know that people who want to live without all modern convenience still can!!
Thank you for the video! I only have one question, Why has everyone been touching the pages of these old artifacts of books with their hands which holds oils in their fingertips that can do damage to the paper of the books?
It was only flying over Iraq and the surrounding countries on my way from India to London that I saw how much more there is to the land than the desert we are used to seeing. It took me a while to work out where heck I was, confused by unexpected landscapes.
2:14... "money and success is not everything.... the passion and something that drives you is Everything" ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ It is true to the core and so many greedy people are blind by their arrogance, its almost impossible to convince them of hope for themselves and their future.
im glad he got the last laugh, and was able to display his last laugh against saddam hussein, Better yet for the people who depend on the ancient Euphrates & Tigress. Best part all the while did it and showed it on 60 MINUTES US. Respect💯
Does acquiring those samples that core through hundreds of feet of ice create a bigger problem ie. friction as the water rushes to the surface creating more fissures in the ice and more areas of weakness in the ice scape?
what amazes me is that looking at the people touching and working to restore the treasured works of the library aren't wearing gloves at all ?? what's up ?
Republicans at the time didn't really want the cease fire and they wanted to stop this but the left was quite upset and vocal with their "No Blood for Oil" message. All of this happened because in 1991 American forces were stopped from going to the Iraqi capital and getting Saddam. It is a lesson writ large about partial responses in military operations - always go for total victory.
Oh my gosh! How fantastic! The Mufti people and their home is so interesting! I love their architecture, their way of life. I can’t imagine someone wanting to exterminate these people and their way of life!
So interesting. I love these documentaries. On a side note, wanted to make a comment to show my support for Karen Read and the insane police corruption in Massachusetts. We the public should no longer stand for police corruption because it could be any one of us that they try to railroad. FBI investigation into police corruption ongoing in Canton Massachusetts and officer John O'Keefe deserved better may his Killers be brought to justice, Brian and Colin Albert and the McCabes for helping cover it up
The scientists doing the coring are the experts on ice strucures, in regard to tension and compression effects on the icebergs and glaciers. I have no doubt they've considered every cause and effect of their actions.
The Mosul Dam (Arabic: سد الموصل), formerly known as the Saddam Dam (سد سدام), is the largest dam in Iraq. It is located on the Tigris River in the western province of Nineveh, upstream from the city of Mosul. The dam serves to produce hydroelectric power and provides water for downstream irrigation. At full capacity, the structure holds about 11.1 cubic kilometers (2.7 cu mi) of water and supplies electricity to Mosul's 1.7 million residents.
Thank you! Another point of view is also necessary. This man seems like he is very good at making a profit and swaying public opinion. Oil has been discovered here tells me all I need to know.

This was fascinating to watch. Those mudhif houses are beautiful. Many thanks 60 minutes for replaying these older docs for us all.
That is a true work of art, made greater by the work of the many artists hands, joined together!

Thank you 60 minutes , fascinating!
Thank you 60 minutes for replaying these and most thanks for finding the people who made these stories happen.
I really like that man. Seems very humble. God Bless him and his people. Hope they all stay safe. From Florida 😊
This is some real, old school journalism. Love it.
It's not 'real old school journalism". It's real journalism.
@TheWinterShadow Well, that's what I said. Notice the comma after "real".
he used the word "genocide"... imagine an american msm journalist using that term today.
@@khamkham7134 some do, in reference in Palestine
Agree!
"Old school way" it is.
Because I don't see no more of '60 minutes' like used to be.
What a lovely story the Iraqi marshlands was. Goes to show you, the American Dream doesn't necessarily fulfill your heart.
Thanks for bringing back these quiet stories.
Indeed, US stole Iraqis' gold.
It’s amazing what this man has done with nature.
Amazingly terrifying as well.
What these people have done, but his dream turned it into a reality! The dream of an entire peoples. One man can make a difference.
I read about the Marsh Arabs years ago, and what Hussein did to them. I’m glad to hear they are reclaiming their culture and land. Nice reporting. Thanks.
What about what the US and UK did to them?
I wonder why no one feels that way about the Palestinians.
It was a rare treat to see the inside of the Vatican library . Thank you 60 minutes for putting this segment on utube .
This is beautiful, inspiring and restores faith in people.
Thank you
Stunning cinematography, and a lovely theme. Well done
It's beautiful when people use their talents to help their fellow man ❤
This was a real treat. Glad it was in my suggested list.

I could spend the rest of my life in the Vatican library, just taken in by all the history there, so fascinating.
Love that man's pride. faith & love for his people. I would go there
😊😊.
What a wonderful tale of rebirth! 🙏
Watching the Vatican library story.. can’t believe that these old manuscripts are being handled with bare hands! This blows my mind!!
It's a copy not original.
Wow Absolutely amazing they got the water back Congratulations 🎉💖. I hope the water keeps coming. Many blessings and prayers.

Spectacular to say the least! Ty 60 mins
It just wouldn't be 60 minutes without those constant reruns.
Will these people ever get tired of trashing people even after they die?! Holy F!

Always accuse someone else evil doing and never look inward even though the vilest evil exist within you!
l'd be curious to know why Saddam Hussein felt threatened by these simple people. incomprehensible to me.
If we want to spend our life and time on our dreams and aspirations Having a profession that is very closely related To our own dreams is a blessing.
Thanks 60 Minutes ,CBS, GREAT JURNALISM 👍 😊
Have you investigated HAARP in Alaska. Thats the first thing that should be understood and then you will understand the warming effect on this planet.

I was there.i experience this war of the golf. In Kuwait, me and my husband he is still alive that time,
What if decades of everyone drilling core samples has played a role in weakening the structure? What if it exacerbates the process?
Not as bad as punching holes in the atmosphere.
