Can we have the pronunciation of his lastname in IPA? I can think of a few ways it could be pronounced, but don't know which is right. Emma May Smith ( talk) 19:17, 23 December 2012 (UTC) reply

I'm not any use at IPA, but I think his name is pronouced IRE (as in fire) and then TUN. Bevo74 ( talk) 19:50, 23 December 2012 (UTC) reply

Engineering mass starvation in a tiny country is no different than killing people by hand. 2602:306:BDA0:97A0:466D:57FF:FE90:AC45 ( talk) 07:58, 15 February 2014 (UTC) reply
