Baghdad - Half a dozen exhausted paramedics crowd around the television in their shabby lounge, watching a Kevin Spacey movie in Arabic and waiting for the next inevitable car bomb.
Before the fall of Saddam Hussein, Red Crescent paramedics in Baghdad were used to responding to heart attacks and car accidents, house fires and falls.
Now they drive to the aftermath of car bombs and mortar attacks, gathering up body parts and risking their own lives.
They say they have had to grow accustomed to seeing mutilated men, women and children and coping with large numbers of casualties at a time.
