HOLY KARBALA, Iraq: Marking the month of Moharram, Iraq will deploy
about 8,000 policemen and security guards in and around the holy
shrine city of Karbala for the mourning ceremony of Ashura.
According to Police chief Major General Mohammed Mohsin Abu Al-Walid
security preparations were already under way, with new checkpoints to
be erected in and around the holy city over the next few days.
The authorities have also drawn up a joint plan with neighboring
provinces to secure roads leading to Karbala, while a vehicle curfew
will be imposed inside the city and a rapid action force will be on
alert in case of emergencies, he said.
Walid said the authorities have urged clerics and tribesmen to
restrain from making inflammatory sectarian statements during Ashura.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
