Wild Rumors from the World Press

This was asked at today's UN Press Briefing, but where in the world did it come from?

Question: Mr. Daliwah, (sp?) he was in Iraq. Is it possible that he was able to find out about people who are starving because of lack of work or lack of ability to gain? The UN, the UN...(Interrupted).

Spokesman: I am not aware of starvation as a humanitarian issue in Iraq today. I am not aware that that’s a problem. I don’t think that’s been a problem for a long time in Iraq.
