son with a sword during the annual ritual to mark Ashoura Day in
the southern Lebanese town of Nabatiyeh, Tuesday March 2, 2004.
Ashoura day marks the Shiite Muslim's commemoration of the 7th
century killing of their most revered Saint Imam Hussein. Al Hussein
was a grandson of Islam's prophet Mohammed and is a symbol of martyrdom
for Shiites. (AP Photo/Mohammed Zaatari)
