The Brangelina-Hypocrisy
|  |
| 13/12/09
Welcome to the third and last part of the Hollywood Hypocrisy Trilogy. You can read part one HERE and part two HERE
Part 3 is all about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Hollywood’s superstar couple. Angelina Jolie proves not only the high level of corruption in our media obsessed world but also how easily people can be deceived and manipulated. If Hollywood would be a kingdom Angelina Jolie would be the Queen of Deception and Brad Pitt would be her court jester.
Like so many other people she fooled me too. But a lesson you have to learn about Hollywood is: It’s all just a lie.
|
Angelina Jolie was known as a wild child in Hollywood. Over time her life has changed, so it seemed. She showed interest in humanitarian activities and became a mother of six children.
But Jolie’s transformation from troubled girl to the next Princess Diana is nothing more than an illusion. A lie pulled over the whole world and spread through tabloids.
Angelina Jolie – Dangerous and Disturbed
Angelina Jolie has a serious mental illness. Making out with her brother in public, addiction to drugs, hiring a hitman to kill her or getting sexual aroused by playing with knives are only few of Angelina Jolie’s disturbing acts. Some might call it an eccentric trait and a must for an artist, but even artists should have limits, especially when they adopt children. Others will say that all of this is history and part of her rebellious youth. Her problems go deep and they never disappeared.
The most deeming evidence for her psychological problems is a confession of her own father, actor John Voight, who talked on TV about his daughters “serious mental problems” in 2002. He begged her to get help. Her problems go deep and they never disappeared.
From Heroin to Cambodia and Back Again
Jolie earned international fame and an Oscar for her role as mentally disturbed woman in Girl Interrupted (1999). Her drug use and hypersexual activities were no secrets in Hollywood at that time. She married two times and stopped using drugs. Former is true, latter not so much.
It is believed that all her use of children and charity to enhance her public image started to deflect a rumored affair with Brad Pitt on the set of Mr. & Ms. Smith. But this is not true.
Filming in Cambodia for her movie Tomb Raider (2001) invoked the humanitarian in her. Her experiences in Cambodia should change her life forever. At least that is what she wants us to believe. The wild party girl with drug and behavior issues has become a reformed humanitarian with a mission. Unfortunately, life isn’t that easy and a drug addiction is not something you can get rid of so fast, or in Jolie’s case, you cannot get rid of it at all.
United Nations of F**k
On August 27, 2001 Jolie was named as UNHCR (High Commissioner for Refugees) Goodwill Ambassador. She undertook many field missions around the world. She was an outspoken ambassador and showed a lot of compassion for refugees.
Let’s take a closer look to one of her supporters in the UN. Ruud Lubbers. Rudolphus Franciscus Marie Lubbers was United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, from January 2001 until 20 February 2005. Remember, Jolie was named as UNHCR ambassador in August 27, 2001. Mr. Lubbers resigned as commissioner because of press coverage of an allegation of sexual harassment. Those allegations were first reported to the United Nations Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) in June 2004 and leaked to The Independent newspaper.
“the allegation against Lubbers is substantiated in that Lubbers did engage in unwanted physical contact with the complainant, a subordinate female staff member. New allegations that came to OIOS’ attention during the investigation, were also examined and indicate a pattern of sexual harassment by Lubbers, OIOS is also of the view that Lubbers abused his authority as High Commissioner by his intense, pervasive and intimidating attempts to influence the outcome of this Investigation.”

Mr. Lubbers didn’t just sexual harass one woman but five. He denied the imputations of course. You are left wondering, how many women did he sexual harass who didn’t report his behavior?
Ruud Lubbers also wrote the foreword for Jolie’s book Notes from My Travels (2003). A book about her travels as UNHCR ambassador.
What does it all mean?
Can we assume that Angelina Jolie slept with Ruud Lubbers to make her way into the United Nations? It certainly wouldn’t be the first scandal for the UN. The “Oil-For-Food program” scandal and the “sexual abuse by UN Peacekeepers” scandal are quite telling.
A woman with a dubious past of drug use and hypersexual behaviors and a man who shows a lack of self-restrain make a banging combination. I leave it to the reader to make a final conclusion.
Now the question is how did she make it into the Council on Foreign Relations? Ask Trevor Neilson. But we will come to him later.
Orphans or Slaves?
A person with a disturbing past like Angelina Jolie would have no chance to adopt in the United States. Other countries are not so picky. Money talks.
Here is list of her adopted children and their dubious circumstances:
Maddox
Real Name: Rath Vibol
Location: Cambodia
"Cambodian child welfare workers told The Age they believed Maddox had been sold by his poverty-stricken mother for $US100 ($A130).
"I'm sure that this child was not a real orphan and was not abandoned," said Dr Kek Galibru, head of the respected human rights agency Licadho. The group's report on corruption in the adoption industry triggered a US moratorium on Cambodian adoptions and a tightening of procedures by several Western embassies.
In one case, according to the document, Galindo in January 1998 faxed her sister the medical records of a child to be adopted with a handwritten note: "Father dead - mother very poor."

But Maddox was only the beginning of Jolie’s rather disgusting way to get her hands on a child.
Zahara
Real Name: Yemsrach renamed to Tena Adam
Location: Ethopia
Rumored to be an AIDS orphan (according to Jolie). Zahara’s real past was later revealed. She still has a family. 24 year-old Mentewab Dawit Lebiso claims to be the mother of Zahara.
For more go to: DailyMail
Pax
Real Name: Pham Quang Sang
Location: Vietnam
Oldest of the children. Ironically, his mother is a drug addict like Angelina Jolie.

Angelina Jolie’s adoption pattern:
-Go to a country with high poverty and high corruption
-Use dubious handlers or adoption agencies
-Buy a child whose parents are still alive
-Rename the child
-Expose and sell the child to the media
It is a highly disturbing pattern and shouldn’t be taken lightly or as coincidence. It would be extremely naïve to believe Jolie did not know about the families of her adopted children or the poor situations the live in. She simply took advantage of the situation.
Fact is, selling those pictures to tabloids guarantee high profit. They make a lot of money for her and improve her image as world savior. These children are not adopted, but enslaved.
Shiloh – The Suffering Messiah
Shiloh was born in Swakopmund, Namibia on May 27, 2006. Shiloh’s birth was hailed as "the most anticipated baby since Jesus Christ". First pictures of her made worldwide more than 7 million dollars.
After being sold to the highest bidder, Shiloh was facing another problem. Her own mother. Angelina Jolie cannot tolerate female competition. Women who are superior are a threat for her. Starting a smear campaign against her rival Jennifer Aniston or taking other women’s children and make them her own are only few of many cruelties Jolie is capable of. She is in constant competition with other women. Either she can subvert and control them or they will be destroyed. She fears competition. Jolie’s mistreatment of her own daughter is not something you will read in gossip magazines. Nannies and bodyguards working for Jolie and Pitt have to sign discretion contracts to keep them silent.
The media world likes to ignore this very serious problem. Bruises are digital concealed. In the end Shiloh has to look pretty on magazine covers. But sometimes even a digital re-mastered picture cannot hide the truth. Shiloh suffers from physical abuse.
Picture below: Jolie is using pressure points to keep Shiloh under control for a staged paparazzi photoshoot.
We cannot forget Jolie’s mental illness and her still ongoing drug abuse. She is simply not capable of being a mother. Brad Pitt has all the traits of a self-loving narcissist, caring more about his bikes than the well being of his daughter. Shiloh is in serious danger.
Make It Wrong or the Brangelina Foundation
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are good in keeping secrets. They know how to keep the abuse of their children a secret. They know how to keep their drug abuse and sex adventures with other people a secret. Like Jolie's drug and sex relationship with the emo-shock rocker and antichrist-wannabe Marilyn Manson. But what they don’t want to hide are their donations. The image of devoted humanitarians must prevail.
Some of Jolie’s recognitions for her humanitarian work are a Citizen of the World Award by the United Nations Correspondents Association in 2003, the Global Humanitarian Award by the UNA-USA in 2005, a Cambodian citizenship for her conservation work in 2005 and she received the Freedom Award by the International Rescue Committee. Someone has to be a bitter cynical to criticize a person like Jolie who appears to be so devoted to good causes. Fortunately, I am a bitter cynical.
Let’s take a closer look to some of their intentions and charity projects.
In 2004 Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were having an affair on the set of Mr. & Ms. Smith. At that time Brad Pitt was still married with Jennifer Aniston. Cheating with Angelina Jolie would have damaged his reputation as “golden boy”. Damage control and a PR spin were needed. Their first official coming out as couple was in Pakistan. Some of you may remember the huge earthquake in Kashmir in October 2005. About 80,000 people died. A useful event when you need to deflect an affair. Just show up, make some pictures and the world will love you. Affair? What affair?
A key figure in Brangelina’s reformation to a do-gooder couple is Trevor Neilson. He is the president of the Global Philanthropy Group and former executive at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Bono, Bill Gates and Sir Richard Branson are some other public figures he has advised. Mr. Neilson knows how to create and craft a do-gooder image for the rich and famous. He also nominated her for a membership to the Council on Foreign Relations.
Another person of extreme interest is Steve Bing a real estate developer and film producer. Steve Bing has an interesting name showing up in his record: Anthony Pellicano, Hollywood’s infamous and ruthless private detective.
According to The Daily Mail, he and his Los Angeles lawyer had hired the private eye Anthony Pellicano to find some dirt about Elizabeth Hurley, a woman Bing was dating back in 2001. She announced that she was pregnant with his child. The Daily Mail retracted the story after a lawsuit by Bing. Later it turned out that The Daily Mail was right. Pellicano worked for Bing. You can read the complete story HERE
Bing and Pitt were lunching together the Make it Right Foundation in December 2007.
“Make It Right is helping residents of New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward rebuild their lives and community in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Our initial goal is to bring at least 150 families home to affordable, green storm resistant houses.”
According to Variety Pitt and Bing were seeking stimulus funds:
"The foundation was among 12 non-profits joining with the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority to file an application last week for a total of $65 million through the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, which is administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. If they get the funding, Make It Right would probably start spending the money in the spring of 2010. Depending on how many homes the foundation has built by then, it could be used to reach their goal of 150 homes in New Orleans or it could expand the program beyond that, said Kim Haddow, a spokeswoman for Make It Right."
Let me recapitulate the situation for you:
Hollywood star Brad Pitt and film producer Steve Bing were asking the President of the United States for a stimulus package. Two multi-millionaires? Seriously? Since 2007 the Make it Right Foundation built 13 houses. Only 13! Their goal is 150 homes. Obama will have to print new money for them.
The Jolie-Pitt Foundation, a private foundation, was established in September 2006.
Earnings in 2006:
Shiloh’s pictures made about $7 million in 2006 (4 million North America, 3 million international).
Donations in 2006: $8,525,930
Pitt gave $4,402,317 and Jolie $4,123,613 away.
$1 million went to Doctors Without Borders
$1 million to the Global AIDS Alliance
$137,935 to the Namibia Red Cross Action Program
$100,000 to Global Green USA
$100,000 to the Daniel Pearl Foundation
$100,000 to the Epidermolysis Bulloma Medical Research Foundation
$20,000 to an art park in Los Angeles
$5,000 to two orphanages that Jolie visited.

That is a little bit more than $2 million. What happened to the other $6 million? I couldn’t find any information about the rest. And why do Pitt and Jolie get all the praise? Shouldn’t Shiloh earn the thanks? Her pictures paid all those donations.
Earnings in 2007:
Pictures of Pax, Jolie’s third adopted child, was sold for about $2 million (or more).
Donations in 2007: $3.4 million
$1 million Pitt’s Make it Right Foundation
$1 million among three different UN based organizations
$400,000 went to Cambodia’s children’s causes
$150,000 to a project to the Maddox Chivan Children’s Center

Earnings in 2008:
The amount of money Jolie got for the twins pictures was about $14 million in 2008.
Donations in 2008: $6.8 million
$2 million Global Health
$1 million Human Rights Watch
$1 million Pitt's Make it Right Foundation
$500,000 Armed Services YMCA of the US Army
What happened with the other $7 million for the twin pictures?
Earnings in 2009:
No child has been bought in 2009
Donations in 2009: $ 2 million or more?
$1 million St. John’s Hospital
$1 million refugees in Pakistan
Getting information about the actual numbers is hard or impossible. The list should give you an overview and an idea about the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. It isn’t Pitt or Jolie who pay for these charities but their bought and sold children. Pitt and Jolie get all the recognition for these donations. It is especially a benefit for them when information about their donations is released shortly before the release of one of their movie.
Those numbers may look impressive at first, but you have to consider tax holes, all the millions they get for movie roles and TV commercials and the staged paparazzi pictures with their children. Let us not forget those “lost millions”. Where did they go?
Make no mistake, Pitt and Jolie don’t care about charities or people in need. It is all a PR game for them. They are just using poor people, veteran soldiers from Iraq, people of New Orleans, earthquake victims and even their own children for their personal gain. Both of them use donations and charity activities whenever a movie has to be promoted or bad publicity to be avoided. It is all a publicity stunt of two rich self-absorbed Hollywood stars with no morals, boundaries and regrets.
Media Nexus
Paparazzi are for many celebrities and stars an annoyance. They invade the privacy without permission. Many actors would agree with that statement but not Brangelina. Both, Pitt and Jolie, know exactly how to play with the media and hire their own paparazzi. Or they simply call the press. Why would they do something like that? Money and attention. Pictures of these children can be sold for $100.000+ or even millions.
But not only paparazzi are under their control. Special deals with tabloids like People-Magazine can bring benefits for both sides. Exclusive pictures, good PR and good money.
People-Magazine is owned by Time Warner Inc. the world’s fourth largest media conglomerate. Among its subsidiaries are CNN and Time Inc. (People-Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, Time and more) also the celebrity news website TMZ.com.
Making exclusive deals with Time Warner Inc. ensured Jolie good PR and suppressed bad news about her.
In extreme cases the press has to be surpassed at all costs. Jolie and Pitt took over Namibia for the birth of their daughter Shiloh. Only foreign journalists with special permission were allowed. A Namibian human rights group has even accused bodyguards and local police of resorting to "heavy-handed tactics”.
Jolie enjoys press freedom only when it suits her.
Brad Pitt’s production company Plan B Entertainment was co-founded with Brad Grey. Brad Grey is Paramount Pictures CEO and a friend of Sumner Redstone, majority owner of Viacom. Viacom is a media conglomerate owning television networks (MTV; BET) and film production companies (Paramount). Like Steve Bing, Brad Grey also used Anthony Pellicano’s many illegal services for wiretapping and background checks of individuals.
They are all very well connected with each other.

Decline of Hollywood?
In my previous parts of the Hollywood Hypocrisy Trilogy I exposed two young actresses, Ellen Page and Megan Fox, as fake humanitarians. Both have the potential to become the next Angelina Jolie. Will they follow her footsteps?
In my second part, I revealed other child abusing couples in Hollywood who are using children to enhance their public image. Maybe these couples don’t poses the same ruthlessness like Jolie and Pitt but they certainly have the will to use their children for their own gain.
German schoolteacher and writer Oswald Spengler foresaw the increasing power of money in our declining civilization. He called it the “tyranny of money”. This tyranny allows people like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt to abuse and manipulate everyone and everything.
Hollywood is the perfect breeding ground for Spengler’s “tyranny of money”. The only question left to ask is: Will this tyranny ever end?
