DECADE'S END: Baghdad looters scramble for cash (2003)
APRIL 13, 2003: Some Iraqis scramble for loose Iraqi currency in the road as looters surround the central bank in Baghdad. The country is moving toward some level of stability. But it came only after years that pushed Iraq perilously close to civil war between the Sunnis who lost power after Saddam's fall and the majority Shiites who took control of the aftermath. The tallies: more than 4,350 U.S. soldiers dead; at least 87,500 Iraqi civilians killed, according to government figures. (AP Photo/Hussein Malla, File)
