Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Visit Syria

Syria3

You’d think that Brad and Angie would take the time that they’ve got off and would spend it just lying around – that is, of course, if you didn’t know the couple. Instead of just relaxing, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie met with Iraq refugees in Syria on Friday. Angelina visited as a goodwill ambassador for the UNHCR in order to urge the world not to forget the plight of those among them who cannot return home because of the trauma they suffered and the country’s instability. And this time she brought Brad with her!

Tens of thousands of Iraqi refugees have returned home from Syria and other neighboring countries over the past year, but many more are unable or unwilling to return to a country still shaken by violence.

“Most Iraqi refugees cannot return to Iraq in view of the severe trauma they experienced there, the uncertainty linked to the coming Iraqi elections, the security issues and the lack of basic services,” a UNHCR statement quoted Jolie as saying. “They will, therefore, be in need of continued support from the international community.”

I always find it so amazing that the two are able to visit places such as this to bring notice to it even though they’re so busy with their work and their children. They’re both such amazing people, aren’t they?

Enjoy the new photos guys!

    When you least expected it, Brad & Angie pop up somewhere in the world! I love it. Brad is carrying a camera with him & I wonder whether he ever thought to showcase his collection of photographs? Just speculating, may be the guy is the first picture was asking “Are you Brad Pitt?” & that’s why Angie was grinning widely. By the way, she looks gorgeous in the flowing gown and Brad looks super hot.

    The two of them look so happy and relaxed. Nice that they are able to do all these trips without worrying about filming. Brad always looks so tense in pictures of him out with the family. Maybe here he felt that they would not attract so much attention.
