I Hate Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

Hate is a strong word, so let’s not employ it here. Let’s say I strongly dislike this celebrity couple, despite all their humanitarian activities, and my interest was piqued to see this news story criticising their oh-so-laudable choice to give birth in Namibia:
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been labelled “colonial overlords” for the treatment they received in Namibia in the weeks leading up to the birth of their daughter last month.
Namibia’s National Society For Human Rights accuses the superstar couple of “using heavy-handed and brutal tactics” to get the African country’s government to aid their desire for total privacy.
A NSHR spokesman says, “To shut down a national border so she can give birth in peace is a massive abuse of power.”
You think? Jolie and Pitt closed down a national border so they could avoid paparazzi.

Incidentally, Namibia has a high infant mortality rate and the UNDP’s 2005 Human Development Report indicated that 34.9% of the population live on $1 per day and 55.8% live on $2 per day.
