AN IRAQI MAN PRAYS FOR A RAPID END TO THE U.S. WAR IN A DAMASCUS
SHRINE.
An Iraqi man prays for a rapid end to the U.S. war against Iraq at the
Shi'ite Muslim shrine of Sayyida Zeinab in Syria, March 25, 2003.
Shi'ite Muslims, most from Iraq and Iran, flock to the shrine they
believe is the tomb of the Prophet Mohammed's granddaughter. This year,
some of the Iraqi pilgrims have decided to sit out the war at Sayyida
Zeinab. REUTERS/ Jamal Saidi
