This photo shows the outside of a building that was hit by a mortar near the Baghdad Airport. While the damage looks significant, it pales in comparison to the photo below it. That is a picture of the same site, yet from the perspective inside the building which shows the widespread damage caused by the shrapnel.

This is one of four huge copper Saddam heads that used to rest on top of the Presidential Palace. They will now be melted down into commemorative coins. A fall from grace, indeed!
