A British soldier drinks a soft drink during a patrol in a market in the Garma area, north of the city of Basra, about 610 km (380 miles) southeast of Baghdad, July 10, 2008. Three months after a security crackdown in Iraq's oil capital of Basra, there are signs of economic revival. But investment to help secure the peace faces hurdles from bureaucratic inertia, lack of technical skills and foreign businesses' uncertainty about whether the calm will hold.
