A member of the 'Sisters of Fallujah,' searches bags for contraband that is not allowed into the city at an entry control point. The group of Iraqi women came together in December 2007 to help U.S. forces stop the smuggling of contraband into the city. In the past, women and children have been used to transport forbidden items that can be used to make improvised explosive devices, as well as other items that are not allowed into the city for the safety of the citizens who live there. "At first, the people didn't like the idea of being searched but now, they are OK with being searched for their safety," said Muhammed.
