Rohan and the road to the apocalypse

Forty years ago an Australian shearer from Grenfell, gripped by religious mania, set fire to one of the most holy sites in Islam—the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. Using new material and exclusive interviews, we show how Denis Rohan's actions started a global Islamic political movement. In the Middle East, Rohan's burning of the Mosque still sparks conspiracy theories and deep anger. Research, Anna Whitfeld. Reporter, Stan Correy.
