I lived inside Saddam Husseins palace ......

What was it like living inside one of the most infamous palaces in the world?

In this clip from Four Years a Slave, former Blackwater contractor Morgan Lerette shares the surreal experience of living and working inside one of Saddam Hussein's former palaces during the Iraq War. What was once the residence of one of the Middle East's most notorious dictators became home to American military personnel and contractors operating in the heart of a war zone.

Morgan describes the strange contrast between the luxury of the palace grounds and the reality of daily life during the conflict. From the unique living conditions to the stories, culture, and experiences that came with operating out of such a historic location, this conversation offers a fascinating glimpse into a side of the Iraq War that few people ever hear about.

History, war, and irony all collide in this unforgettable story.
