Jolie says - Our priorities are quite strange

Xinhua - English: " “Our priorities are quite strange,” the 31-year-old actress said in an interview with CNN that aired Tuesday night. Jolie said spending money on war rather than 'dealing with situations that could end up in conflict if left unassisted' could prove costly in the end.

'We're missing a lot of opportunities (to do) a lot of good that America used to do and has a history of doing,' said Jolie, who is a goodwill ambassador for the U.N.'s refugee agency.

Jolie said that when she is in Washington to raise funds for AIDS orphans, she was often told the war in Iraq is the more pressing matter."
