Iraq's porn dealers risk wrath of religious right

I was just surfing news.google.com before I went to bed and found this.





BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Islamic militants threatened to kill him for it, but Abu Mustafa says it was the only way he knew to make a living in the chaos that is Baghdad today.

The pornographic video salesman is among many traders caught between two faces of the new Iraq, one liberated from the state censorship of Saddam Hussein, the other gripped by religious zeal.

"I am scared but what else can I do? I tried lots of other jobs. I worked in a factory, but you just can't make any money in Iraq. It's the only way to support my son," he said on Wednesday.

"There is no way I am going to join the police or army because the insurgents are killing many of them every day."
