Today is World Refugee Day

By by Sonny - 20.06.2012

Every minute eight people leave everything behind to escape war, persecution or terror. According to UNHCR 800,000 new refugees were registered in 2011. That is the highest number in this century. In 2011 3400 new refugees came to Denmark and 1541 people got asylum (www.nydenmark.dk).

War is the cause
The major cause of displacement is war. Prolonged conflicts or instability in places such as Somalia, Iraq or Afghanistan, and unfolding crises in North Africa and the Middle East, are among the contributors to the current world population of almost 44 million forcibly displaced people.

This year marks the sixtieth anniversary of the 1951 Refugee Convention. It is also 60 years since UNHCR, the United Nations refugee agency, was established.

that if they were actually mrierad, since that's not his style at all (nor is it Angie's). When they don't want to confirm something in an interview, they simply dodge the question. Also, Angie and Brad have both been wearing those rings off and on for almost three years at least, as the first time I remember seeing them wear them was in the twins' first photoshoot. And since that time they have said multiple times that they aren't mrierad. Again, denying something that's true isn't their style at all. So my guess is that they are commitment rings.And now here's MY romantic idea! Perhaps, since we first saw them wearing the rings in Knox and Viv's first photoshoot, they said commitment vows to each other in the hospital during Angie's stay there! Ligaya- I will never understand why the h8ters don't get that the last thing Angie and Brad need is publicity. I mean, of course they need SOME publicity. That's just part of being an actor. What I mean is that they don't need any more publicity than they already get by doing interviews and photoshoots to promote their movies, going to RC events for their movies, and simply living their lives (let's face it, Angie and Brad are so followed that they get publicity practically just by breathing!). They don't need to go to extra lengths for publicity, and it doesn't seem like they do.
