Supporters of Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr carry empty coffins attached with pictures of his late father Mohammed Sadeq al-Sadr during a rally in Kerbala, about 80km (50 miles) southwest of Baghdad October 31, 2008. Thousands people took to the streets of Kerbala on Friday to mark the death anniversary of Mohammed Sadeq al-Sadr and to protest against a pact that would allow U.S. forces to stay in Iraq for three more years.
