Nobel Peace prize

I had thought that if he got the prize, not only was it too early as we do not know what will happen in the weeks and months to follow, but also that Trump might have lost interest if he'd got his much longed for prize. Maybe not getting it will lead to him working hard to maintain the peace in Gaza and also try seriously for peace in Ukraine. Let us hope so. Many of us do not like him - but we are probably all in favour of peace, and Trump is very powerful, so anything which motivates him to end wars is surely welcome.

Good comments.

Gosh, when you read that, she doesn't sound quite so saintly.

So you believe someone you don’t know who makes unsubstantiated claims about someone you’ve never heard of 🤷‍♀️

That’s what I thought too petra hard to believe isn’t it?

OSLO, NORWAY—After promising on Truth Social that the gathering would be “wild,” on Friday Donald J. Trump summoned angry supporters to a rally outside the headquarters of the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
Urging his irate loyalists to “stop the steal,” Trump declared, “If you want to win the Nobel Peace Prize, you’ve got to fight like hell.”2
In a brief public statement, the Norwegian Nobel Committee said, “What a baby.”

I can see that's doing the rounds on social media, but what is the actual source?

Doubtful isn’t it?

Well petra and Oreo, I believe folk on here, without knowing them. Unbelievable

Weird isn't it, that my comment was picked up. But not the original post. Wonder why that was?

There is an alien on my lawn, can you send help.

Tell him to phone home.

Times of India, have never met them, but they have a discussion about this Nobel lady.

I think that sarcastic comments can be too cryptic/opaque Maremia and yes, there are people on SM who blindly believe anything at all.

I’m rushing as fast as I can galaxy and carrying my alien blaster and wearing my tinfoil hat, hold them off as long as you can!

Hurry they are in the hous.....

Oh no am too late, what a shame☹️ I see there is still hot coffee on the table and croissants, mind if I dig in? It was a long tiring journey here.

He was partly right - but you have to fight for peace not fight for the Nobel Peace Prize against other people who are fighting for peace itself.

I expect you’ll be returned after a bit of probing 🤭

With your name, there is no such thing as an alien surely!

Well it's actually up to you Oreo, if you wish to stop posting sarcastic comments on these thread. We all have our own style.

What sarcastic comments from me are you thinking of Maremia ?
Yours is the only one I see in your reply about the Nobel Peace Prize winner ‘not being so saintly’.

Moving on….

This is GN so that would be a NO 😂

Ah, I see now why there might be criticism of any criticism of the latest Nobel Peace Prize winner.
So, it looks as if, and is being reported in quite a few news outlets, so not just by GNs,
under a heading 'Machado not so Nobel', she has 'faced criticism for her strong alignment with Netanyahu and US policies....concerns arise over her past support for Israel's actions.'
Interesting.

Well, I wouldn't put a strong support of Netanyahu, which some national news outlets are claiming she has demonstrated, anywhere near being saintly.
But maybe if you support Netanyahu?

No, very uninteresting actually.
It isn’t Israel or America that decide these things.She seems to be a brave opposition politician in going against Maduro.
Who criticises the Nobel Prize Committee and their choice, and why?

Trump seems to be coping well with his disappointment. Perhaps because for some reason she says he deserved it.

And yet you are still discussing it?

The ‘some reason’ is that the US also views Maduro with, as Bertie Wooster would say ‘a jaundiced eye’.
