Iranian soldiers hold their weapons as Iraqi troops carry coffins with the remains
of victims of the war between two countries, near the town of Fakke, 400 kilometrers
(240 miles) southeast of Baghdad, September 17, 2002. The armies of Iraq and Iran
exchanged 120 coffins containing the remains of victims of their fierce 1980-1988
war. Iraq's 1980 invasion of Iran has been repeatedly cited by U.S. leaders as an
example of what they call the danger posed by Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. More
than a million people were killed in the ensuing eight-year war. REUTERS/Damir Sagolj
