I have more respect for the winner of the best new”comer” award in Pornos than for this rabidly Stalinist ig-Noble Peas Prize.
One day the lion will lie down with the lamb. The United States of America must always ensure it’s the lion.
I don’t know anyone who does not want to eliminate nuclear weapons. But I do know that we all know that at this point it’s not feasible. One day, maybe, we will be in the Star Trek generation, at least I hope. But then we will have to worry about those damn Klingons!
I presume that every member of ICAN and the Nobel Peace Prize Committee can speak fluent Chinese.
Why, in the 72 years of Nuclear Weapons, there has been no major power conflicts like there was in the prior time frame? Israel survives because of their existence, India and its neighbors of Pakistan & China have only fought border skirmishes rather than outright invasions. The Republic of China / Taiwan, and South Korea exist because of the USofA nuclear umbrella. For that matter, Scandinavia, from the Baltic nations to Norway, owe their peace and prosperity to NATO, especially in the time immediately following WW2.
PS: If ICAN thinks that their goal is even remotely possible (ref. DPRK & Iran), I have some prime Florida real estate and a bridge in New York to sell them.
Well, that’s a surprise. I would have expected Antifa or BLM to get the prize.
I’m surprised Kim Jong Un or the Iranians didn’t win it.
Will they also nominate the NRA for demanding at the behest of the ATF a ban on bump stocks and embrace gun control?
When Obama got his Nobel it was a signal that the Nobel no longer had any meaning. It has been reduced to the level of cereal box-top prizes... or best America’s Home Video.
They’ve done wonders to stopping Iran, North Korea, etc.
Oh, they mean getting the US to dismantle its nuclear arsenal.
Thanks Obama.
They don’t mean that NK has to destroy its nuclear weapons. They mean the USA has to stand by and let NK build up its arsenal because NK is communist.
This wouldn’t be the same group that holds rallies featuring signs saying “Hand Off The DPRK”,would it?
The funny thing about these massive,almost monthly,rallies is that they *always* demanded that the US scrap its nukes and *always* portrayed Reagan as a dangerous psychopath but never mentioned a *word* about the Soviets or *their* nukes.
But then came the fall of the Berlin Wall and the West had access to millions of East German government documents...and among those documents was irrefutable proof that the CND was set up,operated and funded by East Germany which,of course,was set up,run and funded by the USSR.
Very curious indeed!
ROTFL. Clintoon loses another one. I thought for sure she’d win it this year. I guess we’ll see more pissing and moaning as well as another “book” out of her.
Did not Nobel believe that the distribution of dynamite would make war obsolete?
