THE EUROPEAN UNION WINS THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. WHY????
10/12/12
Ever since Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize I lost all interest and faith in this sham of an international prize. I fail to see the relevance of selecting a group of 27 countries for the most prestigious international prize that once honored Martin Luther King Jr and many other great and noble individuals, for their courage and vision to promote peace and human rights. How can the incompetent heads of European governments even remotely compete with the courage and suffering, and inspiration of those individuals and the recently assassinated Pakistani Girl Malala Yousufzai,who stood up against the Taliban for her right to an education and the right for all Pakistani girls and women to be educated? How can the Nobel committee panel of elitist globalist judges callously ignore the remarkable works of so many men and women around the world, who would use the substantial prize winnings to further their important humanitarian work? It is too obvious that the selection for the Nobel Peace Prize was to award the cruel and incompetent IMF puppet leaders, who have bankrupted their governments and are now demanding severe austerity measures and brutal police actions against the people who democratically elected them. The intelligent concept of awarding and recognizing those individuals who most humbly and compassionately serve Humanity has been callously and arrogantly ignored due to the absolute stupidity of the Nobel committee.
I have recently read a CNN Report that the world now has over 42 million refugees fleeing their countries due to wars and droughts. Of all the countries that are willing to accept refugees the U.S ranks highest with its recent acceptance of less than 60,000, which is far less than one percent of all refugees which U.S foreign and military policies have created. All 27 E.U countries put together fall short of this number of refugees they have accepted even though the European economy is the largest in the world. The member countries of the European Union are responsible for the exploitation of many third world countries and are active members in NATO and the U.N, whose military forces are involved in all the civil wars around the world that are causing the refugee problem. The hypocrisy of the Nobel Committee awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to the European Union has destroyed any credibility it once had as a international committee established for the purpose of recognizing individual achievements in the fight for world peace and their contribution to Humanity. I believe that the former great and worthy recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize, would denounce their awards and the Nobel Committee for their selection of the European Union.
For my many European readers, I hope this article doesn’t offend you. If you are a regular reader of my website I hope you are as outraged as I am at the recent decision of the Nobel Committee.
