Angelina: Iraq and Roll

Globe-trotting, tattooed do-gooder, Angelina Jolie, swapped the tony Hamptons to visit war torn Iraq. The United Nations Refugee Agency Goodwill Ambassador is in Iraq visiting refugees displaced by the war, and will also visit US troops.
Jolie with the Troops
As reported by People, Jolie arrived in Iraq on Tuesday after visiting Syria on Monday. TMZ contacted the United Nations, who told us that Jolie was traveling sans entourage on her humanitarian mission.

The photo, from OK! Magazine, was sent in by the mother of a US Marine from Denver. It was taken today in Iraq.

The UN was responsible for travel arrangements, and said they wouldn't comment on security measures taken to protect Jolie. Travel arrangements for special ambassadors typically take two weeks to prepare, but in the case of Ange, the agency needed a whole month. Jolie will return to Damascus this evening, then back to Brad and their precious brood.

5. This woman is great. I love her humanitarian activities. Not just here, as in New Orleans, helping to revive that devastated city, but also world-wide. We need more celebs like her and less like the Britneys, Lohans, and Hiltons...

6. She's definitely got bigger stones than I have - I don't know that I'd go.

Kudos to Angie for wanting to get a look firsthand, rather than read a bunch of reports/look at a bunch of pictures from the comfort of her living room.

9. She's a skank. I'm so happy to be liberated from believing her hype. But I guess the world can rest easy since St. Angie has restored peace in Iraq! Let's bring burgers for her skinny ass to eat the parade.

11. YUCK to visiting terrorist countries such as Syria!!!

Goodwill Ambassador - give me a break! Stick to the movies Angelina and keep your pretty little nose out of the important issues.

15. She is an attention seeking tramp. Probably really in Iraq on a baby buying shopping spree!
HOMEWRECKER ....and French kisses her brother,,,and wears vials of blood....and has a nasty habit of buying babies worldwide for her entertainment. Her last couple of movies BOMBED - she needs to drum up attention at any cost..!!
Do NOT endorse any movies from this homewrecking tramp!!!
