1 Why Trump would want a bullshit political prize given to Obama and Arafat is beyond me.

2 Gotta be fake news Frank. It's just gotta be.

3 But you know, I said the same damn thing about another anarchist holiday in approved in 1983.

4 Nobel Peace Prize goes to María Corina Machado, Venezuelan opposition leader.

5 It was never realistic for Trump to receive the prize this year. Nomination process closed in January, and the cease-fire was only decided yesterday (and could have been broken today). This committee doesn't make last minute decisions.

Should there be a lasting success in Gaza, this might be a different story next year.

Machado is a good choice. Maduro's headache just got bigger.

6 It was never realistic for Trump to receive the prize this year.

And, I'm just speculating, there will not be a ceasefire next year. In fact, I'm not sure it's going to last a month.

7 I tend to agree with you.

Also agree here, Grom.

Too many Gaza factions at play that want to retain power by any means necessary.

9 Surprised the headline isn't something like:

Gazans and Israelis join praising Obama and Biden groundwork in creating cease-fire

10 And what, exactly, had Baraq accomplished when they gave that prize to him?

11 I think it's a shame the way the Nobel Committee disgraced themselves by awarding the Peace Prize to Obama. At the time they said it was "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples". But if, as EC says, the nomination process is closed in January, Obama hadn't even taken office yet when they awarded him the prize. The appearance was and still is that he was given the award because he was the first black POTUS and a Democrat/globalist to boot.

Obama kept a meaningless war in Afghanistan going long after it was apparent that only death, destruction and defeat could be accomplished there. He organized and attempted to organize the overthrow of several governments including Lybia and Ukraine, thereby starting wars in those countries that are still raging. A man of peace? Hardly. Now the prize means nothing. They can stuff it up their butts.

14 Better Yet, María Corina Machado should board the first allowed plane to Washington and present it to Trump herself! The Nobel committee may seethe but can't stop her from doing so. She can keep the money and still honor Trump for his efforts NOW and in the future as concerning Venezuela!
