A man sells women's clothes outside the ruins of the Golden Mosque in Samara, 96 km (60 miles) north of Baghdad, February 22, 2007. Militants entered the Golden Mosque in the Iraqi city of Samarra at dawn exactly one year ago, setting off charges that destroyed the dome of the revered Shi'ite shrine. The act sparked a wave of sectarian bloodshed that has pushed Iraq close to all-out civil war.
