A U.S. Army soldier guards the perimeter as Iraqi fire fighters work on controlling a burning pipeline near Baghdad August 30, 2004. Saboteurs blew up an internal oil pipeline on the edge of Baghdad on Monday, the latest in a series of attacks on the country's internal and export pipeline network, witnesses said.
