Basra, Iraq -- For the Christians in Basra, the downfall of Saddam
Hussein has meant a terrible loss of religious freedom.
The social club where Yousef Lyon and his friends would gather in
the evening to play dominoes, where families danced or listened to
live music on holidays, is closed. Wedding celebrations are held
quietly at home.
"Of course, during the Saddam regime, it was better," said Lyon,
40, a member of the city's small Armenian community. "Now we are
afraid from the religious parties that maybe they will throw a
bomb at us."
