Could the Nobel Peace Prize Sink Any Lower?

Yes, the committee could have given 47 the prize

It’s ironic but also darkly funny that the Nobel Peace Prize committee overlooked the abject begging of 47 and Netanyahu to award the million dollars to a different terrible person — albeit one who undoubtedly has less blood on her hands.

U.S. cutout Maria Corina Machado, opposition figure to President Nicolás Maduro, will get the prize instead. Maduro, who is being attacked literally with gunboat diplomacy targeting his country’s fishing vessels, and figuratively as when NYC mayoral candidate and progressive darling Zohran Mamdani called Venezuela a dictatorship last week, is in the empire’s crosshairs for two reasons. Because 1) he presides over America’s biggest socialist state and 2) because Venezuela has the largest oil deposits in the world. But it isn’t just Republicans or Europeans who are gunning for Maduro. Democratic administrations and their media outlets have also worked overtime to undermine him just as they did Hugo Chavez, his predecessor, and for the same reasons.

Many of us remember when the odious Barack Obama got the prize and, if old like me, have had little respect for the so-called honor since Henry Kissinger got it in 1973. Based on history, 47 could be forgiven for thinking that the prize works like this: slaughter civilians, drop chemical weapons to kill the forests and poison the people, bomb other countries you’re not even at war with and then finally, when you’ve already lost, sign a ceasefire and withdrawal agreement.

It’s hard to find something more ludicrous than the pitch that Zionists put together for the prize, but I think I’ve found it in The Cradle:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signaled on 9 October that Ukraine will nominate Trump for the prize if he sends Kiev US Tomahawk missiles.
So there’s always next year for 47, right?

Unfortunately for Zelensky, I don’t see Ukraine anywhere in this chart.

I’ll bet you noticed another country on this chart with large oil reserves that Zionists have been and are gunning for a hot war with. This discussion between West Asia expert Vanessa Beeley and international journalist Fiorella Isabel is well-worth your attention:
Trump’s “Peace Deal” Mirage: Distraction As Escalation in Zionist War on Gaza & Region Continues

A critical analysis of how theatrical diplomacy, manipulated narratives, and global complicity are paving the way for a wider regional conflict, while the genocide in Gaza continues unabated.
And again, just so readers don’t think I have it out for only Republicans, here’s another item of interest: Obama administration darling Samantha Power just had her emails with Israel leaked. Turns out as ambassador to the UN she worked hard (and was rewarded) to get Israel admitted to key committees including the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space. So there are two vetoes whenever China and Russia propose ratification of the PAROS treaty. Then comes 47 with the U.S. Space Force declaring recently in a capstone document available here:
Space is a warfighting domain..

We employ military force to achieve space superiority.

Guardians[sic] are preeminent space warfighters with the knowledge and expertise necessary to achieve U.S. military objectives in the domain.
I’ll end with an anecdote from my activist life. At our most recent banner outing, a lady with a sign that said I pledge allegiance to the flag not to a king and holding a U.S. flag joined us on the overpass. She asked if she could and I said sure, then she observed that her sign was inappropriate but it was all she had and was passing on her way coming from a Dem party sponsored protest.

I feel like this is a pattern lately -- Dems showing up at our protests and standing there with their inappropriate messaging as if we belonged together. I don’t think it is random, I think it is planned.

Woman with U.S. flag and sign: Are you going to No Kings on Oct 18?

Me: No. I don’t approve of Democrats any more than I approve of Republicans.

Her: Oh I know, I know. But, it’s gonna be a big one!

And then she mumbled something regretful that included the phrase “my party” in a tone as if she were talking about a wayward child.

People are easily fooled by words. And they love to hate 47 like it is a religion. So there will be rejoicing at his humiliation over the peace prize.

Meanwhile, Congress will go on allowing war on Venezuela and shipping weapons to Israel and Ukraine. Yes, even those with D after their name; Uber Zionist John Fetterman supplied the swing vote in this partisan performance to obscure that Ds and Rs are on the same team. If you think getting 47 out of the White House will fix any of that, you really haven’t been paying attention.
