An Iraqi man beats a torn poster of President Saddam Hussein with his shoe in Safwan, southern Iraq, on March 21, 2003. Safwan, a small border town, was clearly outside Saddam's control on Friday. Kuwaiti television showed Iraqis mingling cautiously with American soldiers, one of whom received a peck on the cheek from a local man. —Reuters
