Oct 31, 2008 - Muthanna, Iraq - A brick factory in Al Muthanna province of Iraq is one of the regions largest polluters and one of few industries in the south Iraq province.

They feel that nothing has changed since Saddam was overthrown. A U.S. State Department official estimates the workers earn $100.00 a month. (Credit Image: © Jed Conklin/ZUMA Press)
