A woman looks down from the window of her apartment and applauds during a ceremony in front of the Beit Israel synagogue in Istanbul, marking the third anniversary of the Al Qaeda-linked twin suicide car bomb attacks against the city's two main synagogues, November 15, 2006. Residents, mayors and Turkey's Chief Rabbi Ishak Haleva attended ceremonies to mourn for dozens of people including Jewish and Muslim passers-by who were killed or injured during the twin attacks in 2003.
