A Jordanian in Amman cover his face in front of a television showing a U.S. Marine cover the face of a statue of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein with a U.S. flag in Baghdad April 9, 2003. Jubilant Iraqis tied a noose around a huge statue of Saddam Hussein in the heart of Baghdad and pelted it with shoes as the Iraqi president's 24-year rule collapsed in chaos. In scenes reminiscent of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, crowds cheered as men climbed the huge statue of Saddam in the center of Baghdad and placed the rope around the neck in preparation to topple it.
