"Dalal Jumah, 56, the mother of Sheik Abu Anas al-Shami, weeps as she holds a small picture of her son at her home in Amman, Jordan, Wednesday Sept. 23, 2004. Al-Shami was killed when a U.S. airstrike hit the car he was travelling in last Friday in the west Baghdad suburb of Abu-Ghraib. Al-Shami was the spiritual leader of the most active insurgency group in iraq Tawhid and Jihad." (AP Photo/Hussein Malla)
