IRAQ US WAR BAGHDAD SHIITES
Shiite Muslim worshippers celebrate the end of Ashura holiday by pounding their hands on their chest and heads at the Kademiya Shrine on the outskirts of Baghad, Iraq Friday April 11, 2003. This is the first time since Saddam Hussein took power in Iraq that they can openly celebrate the holiday. The holiday of Ashura is when Shiites remember the death in 680 A.D. of Imam Hussein, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, the event that led to the split in Islam between Shiites and Sunni Muslims.
