Protesters burn effigies of U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney during a rally in Kerbala, 110 km (70 miles) south of Baghdad, May 9, 2007. Hundreds of supporters of Shi’ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr attended the demonstration denouncing Cheney’s visit to Iraq. The Arabic inscriptions on the banner reads: “We demand the Iraqi government not to welcome the messenger of terror Dick Cheney.”
