IRAQI DETAINEES PEER FROM A CELL IN A POLICE STATION IN BAGHDAD, 2003-12-08 (photo)

Iraqi detainees peer from a cell in a police station which was heavily damaged in a suicide attack on the first day of the holy Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, in Baghdad December 8, 2003. In the police station is only one cell for men and one cell for women. The Baghdad's al-Doura police station, one of several hit in a flurry of bombings one day in late October that killed at least 35 people, is still without electricity and water. Since then at least eight police stations have been bombed, making officers - tainted in the eyes of many by their place in Saddam Hussein's rule of fear and their ties now to Iraq's U.S. occupiers - a target of choice in what they and U.S. officials consider the vengeance of the ousted strongman's followers.
