The NBPP has lost its luster over the years, fairly often it did reward someone for doing substantial work for the world....but awarding someone for doing nothing but being a different color was to me, astounding.
The Nobel Peace Prize, based upon merit? I didn’t think they gave those anymore...
On 12 May 2008, Irena Sendlerowa (commonly known as
There recently was a death of a 98 year old lady named Irena.
During WWII, Iliana, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto.
She had an ulterior motive
She KNEW what the Nazis plans were for the Jews.
Iliana smuggled infants out in the bottom of her tool box she carried, and she carried in the back of her truck a Burlap sack, (for larger kids).
She also had a dog in the back, that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in, and out of the ghetto.
The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog, and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.
During her time and course of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants.
She was caught, and the Nazis broke both her legs, and arms, and beat her severely.
Iliana kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out, and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard.
After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it, and reunited the family.
Most of course had been gassed.
Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes, or adopted.
Last year Iliana was up for the Nobel Peace Prize .
She LOST.
Al Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.
The Nobel Peace Prize is ultimately awarded by five leftist Norwegian guys. There is no chance they will ever award it to Trump, and why would he even want it?
;-)
He should accept, and give the prize money (just under $1,000,000 for 2016) to a charity. Preferably, something that would make liberal heads explode again.
Donald J. Trump should not accept membership in any club that includes Yasser Arafat.
Don’t take the bait, Donald. You don’t need no steenking prizes.
Richly deserved but they only give it to shills now (Gore, Obamas, Yassar Freaking Arafat)
A new day, so our domestic enemies will have a new hatred!
While a nice gesture, to many liberal suicides would follow such an award as they would be forced to confront the reality that their lives have been lived in an illiterate bubble of misinformation.
The Nobel committee would rather give it to Assad than Trump.
Making The Nobel Peace Prize Great Again!
It’s now the 0bama participation trophy.
If they give it to him (and that’s a big IF) he should refuse the medal, but take the cash award and give it to the NRA.
Bwaa-Haa-Haaa!
A week ago we read that Kim Jong-Un and the South Korean president were being considered for the Nobel Peace Prize, and that Donald Trump’s odds of nomination were much lower. Didn’t I read somewhere that Trump dismissed it and said “Peace is the prize”. If so, that’s one of the classiest quotes in modern politics.
He could ask Patti Smith to accept the award in Stockholm, like Bob Dylan did. Maybe she would remember her lines the second time around.
Good for them. President Trump deserves it. But I doubt they give it to him.
