Angelina Jolie slams the Iraq War
Hollywood megastar Angelina Jolie indirectly criticized the Iraq war and the priorities of the US government, in an interview with CNN on World Refugee Day.
“When you’re in Washington to get money for AIDS orphans, the answer is often, we’re at war right now,” said the goodwill ambassador for the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) who has visited refugee camps around the world.
“Our priorities are quite strange,” she said referring to the money Washington spends on war and not “dealing with situations that could end up in conflict if left unassisted, and then cost more.” via All Jolie
“We’re missing a lot of opportunities (to do) a lot of good that America used to do and has a history of doing … You have to start to notice that there’s something wrong with that,” she added.

Do you have any idea what you are talking about? Obviously not, because if you did you would know that that “little goodie two shoes” brought a ton of attention to problems we all need to be thinking about, and if you did know anything about this so-called war, you would know that this regime is the barbarian, and we are slaves to it if we think the way you do. Wake up dave, you are being lied to, but you may be stupid enough to believe them.
