ship Al Noor, bottom left, towards the U.S. navy destroyer USS Higgins, in background,
Sunday Feb. 16, 2003 in northern Gulf waters, as part of Maritime Interception Operations
(MIO) to enforce UN sanctions against Iraq. The US Coast Guard cutter, the CGC Boutwell,
raced after the cargo ship early Sunday after it attempted to pass unseen from Iraqi
waters towards the Iranian coast. (AP Photo/Leila Gorchev, Pool)
