Malawian Court Affirms Rights of Rich to Do Anything They Want.
Malawian Court Affirms Rights of Rich to Do Anything They Want.
Lilongwe, Malawi (BNSE): International pop music legend, Madonna's bid to adopt an orphan child from the desperately poor African nation of Malawi was approved this week by Malawi's Supreme Court of Appeal.
Madonna's adoption bid was stymied in March by a lower court's ruling that barred the adoption based on it violated the Malawian law requiring 18 months residency in the nation before adopting children. According to one of the three judges making the decision, the law barring the adoption was out of date.
D'Aood Mitambe, a high ranking legal adviser to the Appeals Court, told BFBE, "Despite the fact Malawi is a very poor nation, it has a sophisticated legal system based on English Common Law just like those in the United Kingdom, the U.S, Australia, and Canada. And, just as in those powerful nations, we, too, have a separate standard of justice for the wealthy over the common people. Unfortunately, it has been so long since anyone wealthy has lived in Malawi who was not a politician, in charge of the military, or a heavily armed militant faction, ergo, above the Courts, the lower Court simply forgot about this time honored double standard."
Mitambe stated that despite this legal precedent, the Court still took a thorough look at Madonna's case, "Since she already basically stole a Malawian boy a few years ago even after it was discovered he was not actually an orphan, and the fact that she did not eat the kid or anything, the Court just figured 'what the hell, she's rich.'"
Supporters bristled at accusations of Madonna's wealth and notoriety influencing the Court's decision. Marty Shlopp, owner of "VogueDonna," a popular Madonna fan blog, said, "Anyone who knows Madonna knows she has nothing but the purest motives in adopting a child from this impoverished nation. She is simply living out her religious faith, and we should all support her in this."
When asked how Madonna's faith played a role in these proceedings, Shlopp added, "Madonna is a dedicated Kabbalist, and there is no doubt that she is not aware of the story of Lilith. Madonna's actions speak louder than her words, and, she is quite evidently, simply trying to model her life on the example of Lilith. I can think of nothing more noble and applaud."
BFBE Note: Lilith is the fabled first wife of Adam, who according to legend, was cursed by God and sentenced to walk the Earth forever as an aged crone. In ancient times, Lilith was feared as a night spirit who would sneak into homes stealing children and young men's semen.
