Shi'ite residents display a mock body symbolising the people who were killed during the regime of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, in Najaf, 160 km (100 miles) south of Baghdad November 5, 2006. Iraq's Shi'ite-led government said Saddam Hussein had got what he deserved when an Iraqi court sentenced him to hang, but a senior Sunni Arab member of parliament dismissed Sunday's verdict as political.

Haitians protest demanding for their salaries after 18 months of not being paid, in front of the Interior Ministry in Port-au-Prince November 8, 2006. Haiti, the poorest country in the Americas, was ranked last, just below Iraq, Myanmar and Guinea, reflecting what Berlin-based corruption watchdog Transparency International said was a high correlation between violence, poverty and corruption.
