Actor Sean Penn has made a trip to Baghdad to discover for himself how Iraqis deal with their day-to-day lives after 12 years of UN sanctions on the country.

Martin Sheen, who plays the US President in the Emmy-award winning series "The West Wing," is the chief spokesman of the anti-war coalition. Source.
