T4 is right--Iraqis aren't starving. Our mediamen had access to Iraqis not afforded to Western (and particularly American) media. What they found was in stark contrast to what American media claims: there's food, lots of food, in Iraq. In fact, Iraqis are so generous to foreigners and visitors to their homes. Food was in abundance, not the starving Iraq that American media tried to convey. Iraqis were, contrary to Western media again, quite open in talking about Saddam. There were those who were against him, but are also against the U.S. war; they see it as an invasion. Iraqis want to solve their problem their way, not have some foreign force come in. Now they are armed--to fight against their "liberators". They see the war as an intrusion, an act of invasion, not "liberation".
What type of proof do you have that Iraqis are not starving, because we see reports every day that they are. I am not talking about somebody saying it I am talking video after video of Iraqis fighting over a simple bottle of water.
