President Mohammad Khatami visits the graves of soldiers killed during the war with
Iraq between 1980-88, on the 24th anniversary of Iran's Islamic revolution, near
Tehran, Iran, Saturday, Feb. 1, 2003. Feb.1 is the first of 10 days of festivities
- known as the 'Ten Days of Dawn' - that mark the homecoming of the late Ayatollah
Ruhollah Khomeini to Iran, which sparked mass protests that led to the ouster of
the U.S.-backed Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and establishment of hard-line Islamic
rule.(AP Photo/Vahid Salemi)
