PeopleNews at IMDb.com claims Bono, under pressure from actor Sean Penn, is planning a “political trip to Iraq” to “highlight the humanitarian crisis that would result from war with the West.”

Update: U2’s publicist RMP London announced today that despite reports to the contrary, Bono will not be visiting Iraq. “There is no truth whatsoever to this story,” a spokesperson said. “Bono continues to campaign for many issues relating to debt, AIDS and trade in Africa, but he has no involvement in this issue and no plan to visit Iraq.”
