Angelina Jolie Visits Iraq

UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie traveled to Iraq and Syria to see first-hand the humanitarian needs there — the plight of hundreds of thousands of families uprooted by the ongoing conflict in Iraq.

According to UNHCR, “Yesterday in Damascus (Syria), Jolie visited a UNHCR registration center and spent hours talking to Iraqi refugees in their homes. Today, she crossed into Iraq to visit 1,200 refugees trapped in a makeshift camp at the border, unable to flee Iraq, and later watched scores of Iraqis crossing into Syria at a border checkpoint.”

“I have come to Syria and Iraq to help draw attention to this humanitarian crisis and to urge governments to increase their support for UNHCR and its partners,” Angelina said. “My sole purpose in both countries is to highlight the plight of those uprooted by the war in Iraq.”

After talking with stranded refugees at Iraq’s Al Waleed camp on Tuesday, Angie said: “it is absolutely essential that the ongoing debate about Iraq’s future includes plans for addressing the enormous humanitarian consequences these people face.”

While in Iraq, Jolie also took the time to privately visit US troops and other Multi-National Forces based in the area.

#213: if you didn’t vote then you don’t have a thing to say about the elections. If you had the right and you never exercised your right well, you deserve what you got but if you’re not even a citizen here, what right have you to criticize. How is election in your country by the by? I’m sure Utopia has a great leader. What’s his name again?

Hello PT, where have you been? working I guess?

Crazy. It never ends and they make it so easy.

Hi Tijen

Good to see your posts as well. I have guests from Turkey, so my visiting time at JJ is much less, and yes I am following the outcome of the presidential elections from the net.

She may be a terrible actress, but damn is she good at the politics.

can you tell us how many times you travel to those country in war zone?

ritzy stop lieng and try to makes everything funny for yourself.It is so sad you even use people`s dying for your purpose.It is so sad for you , and you still change your names again AND again to say what?again put your same **** in this sites.are you human?are you feeling sadness or happiness?are you at all feeling anything like sadness,shame or whatever?

It is so sad you even make this war some sort of entertainment for yourself.please go and see some mental doctor you are really really ill and need help.

I lived in war about 8 years and I never tried to trash what other people did in my country.b/c I believe doing alittle things is much better than doing nothing.I myself with my eyes saw how much some of the people became happy when some people from UN came to their country and talked with them.b/c they think that although they can`t do many thing for them but they for sure are some kind of things that can related them to people in other country.yes sadlyun becomes some kind of politics goods but the things that this UN people see in war country for sure changed their mind and I think if you have a big goal you should try to catch it little by little.

and for your information b/c it seems your information is just limited in what some tv channels say,although Iraq seems safe but still it has some places which are enough dangerous and you think just escorting with some troops or BG in Iraq make you safe no not at all.it is worst b/c terrorist always try to kill troops and escorted group in baghdad so even If they took them in safe places you should know there is always a risk about going to war zone.

so when you are in your country and you are safe don`t try to bash other people`s work.

You can bash her in her actress and motherly skill or like always talk about their break up story. but when it comes to this kind of works from her please sit back and shut up and try not to make everything funny for yourself.it is really sad.

gosh shut up already @ 08/28/2007 at 4:34 pm

365 Aeon fan-lurker— I am fine thanks! I was trying to be nice b/c if they keep this hatred up it is going to get so mmuch worse for them all!!

I am looking at the pics of Angie in Iraq and I am tearing up as well as shaking my head how these idiots can sit here hate and critisize her.

Angelina Jolie is an AMAZING human being and as her fan I am so proud of her!!!

360 the real tita

You are totally deranged, Tita. Off your rocker. And leave my crotch out of this - as if you’d know one way or the other. Or maybe you do. Do you?? Are you a crotch-sniffer??

360 the real tita : 08/28/2007 at 4:26 pm
#190: no, I don’t. blahblahblah…
Now you kiss off, smelly crotch!

====================================

Wow Tita…You wouldn’t know class if it bit you in the ass!

Aniston is heading over to Greece to help out with the fires there!

ROTFLMAO!

i agree some parts of so easy post but there are few things w/made me raised eyebrows but tht’s ok, at least she’s not tht post, so i want her post a great one.i guess becoz she is not a fan, tht’s ok, but I BELIEVE ANGELINA IS VERY SINCERE THN most people i know in HOLLYWEIRD. it’s been many yrs, she’s doing it.if i were a famous wannabe, i will befriend her to keep me grounded instead on focusing on my look, fortune & fame. i think she has done way beyond my expectation about famous people can do. she came all the way down from her pedestal and go out there in those very criticaly violent and grim places to get down and dirty. i never heard any famous ones did tht, not even oprah winfrey, bono , bill gates ,etc. thogh i acknowledge all their generosity, i APPLAUD MISS JOLIIE, THE MOST!i am not really fond of celebrity, becoz most of them , just spend all their fortune for themselves and for anything they want buy big houses, cosmetic surgeries, boozing,partying,spa, luxurious getaways,etc. they forgot without their fans , they won’t be up there . so for some people to say PR or they are not sure or don’t care , if she is sincere, tht is plain stupid. i don’t hv to be a fan to be convince. heck, i myself want to pick, why shld i put my life on the line, speciallyif i hv my kids and loving family and besides i hv to finance my trip?. my point is, she can live better just doing movies, if she wants to fake out , WHT FOR? ….wht can she gain from it? for more thn 6 yrs, WHY? is she crazy? or desperate of attentions? she don’t need UR ATTENTIONS! she has a very loving, supportive,happy family! plus, fans & jealous people says” SHE GOT BRAD PITT!” i think the other reason, why women hate her because she is un-attainable plus, sus-maryosep brad pitt! these women are desperately wishing to land in the hands of mr. pitt excluding the fans, i think most fans love angelina and few shallow ones, just learn to tolerate her. my apology, for some people out here, if i struck a nerve, it was not intentional, just pure honest and innocent remarks from real people.

http://www.goffinf.com/pre/s/000/621/jolie_pitts_070828_04.jpg

Bravo!! Angelina Jolie is the best!! I just love her and Brad and her whole family! She is so brave and so kind!

She has absolutely no buisness meddling in world politics.No one wants to listen to someone that fraternizes with terrorists.She needs to stick with what she does best,volunteer for the do nothing agency(U.N) being a ho and making crappy movies. I can’t seem to find any respect for this pitiful excuse of a woman. Celebrity self importance overload indeed!!!!!!

Why do haters even bother to come here? This information is for fans. We’ve been fans of either Brad or Angelina or both with no problems. Why the hell do they come bring their gloom here? Why do they even care to take the time to post? Don’t they know that nobody cares what they have to say except themselves who reply to their own posts?

It seems like a pretty safe environment she was in from the pictures Lady G posted.

Mrs. Lenny @ 08/28/2007 at 4:43 pm

~The Haters are losing their doo-doo over this one. Boy,are they STUPID.

Peace~

Thank-you Lady G for all your links, and on previous threads too.

Much obliged to you. Angie is doing a fantastic job as an UNHCR Ambassador.
