An Iraqi Shi'ite woman walks through a sandstorm as tens of thousands of Iraqis make their way to the central city of Kerbala via Najaf, April 19, 2003. Thousands of Iraqi Shi'ites enjoyed their first taste of religious freedom on Thursday, starting out on a pilgrimage of hundreds of miles that was banned under ousted president Saddam Hussein (news - web sites).

An Iraqi Shiite man carries a flag stained with the blood of men who wounded themselves to demonstrate their love to the Imam, as he walks along with tens of thousands of religious Iraqis on their way to the central city of Kerbala through a sand storm, April 19, 2003. Thousands of Iraqi Shi'ite Muslims beat their chests with their hands and waved black and green flags in a passionate celebration of a religious pilgrimage banned for a quarter century under Saddam Hussein. Men in robes and women draped in flowing black chadors streamed along narrow lanes and through palm tree orchards from towns and villages in southern Iraq to Najaf, from where they will go on to the city of Kerbala to mark one of the holiest events in the Shi'ite calendar, on April 23.

A lion sits in its cage in Baghdad's zoo, Saturday April 19, 2003. As the war in Iraq winds down, attention is turning to one group of forgotten victims: the animals at Baghdad's zoo. Weakened before the war by lack of food and medicine blamed on years of U.N. sanctions, the animals' lives were endangered during the conflict by the placement of an Iraqi gun battery on the zoo's grounds, opening it to destruction by U.S. military attack.
