Trump nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

At least he's being nominated for reasons, unlike Obama.

'Tybring-Gjedde, further, praised Trump for withdrawing a large number of troops from the Middle East. “Indeed, Trump has broken a 39-year-old streak of American Presidents either starting a war or bringing the United States into an international armed conflict. The last president to avoid doing so was Peace Prize laureate Jimmy Carter,” he wrote.'

I can recognize that Trump has surely not been perfect with foreign policy, but I can hope that the apparent trend to end militaristic misadventures continues.

If this is confirmed as non-fakenews, have to concede my previous prediction may have been wrong:

Will North Korea's Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un win Nobel Peace Prize?


Recently there has been lot of buzz about NK's KJU and Trump winning Nobel Peace prize but chances for Trump's Peace Prize seem to have diminished after controversial NYDailyNews cover about killing of large number of Palestinian civilians went viral.

That may add few wrinkles though considering recent reports like this:

(AP) Trump’s recycling program: War crimes and war criminals, old and (potentially) new

Rebecca Gordon
April 3, 2018
A barely noticed anniversary slid by on March 20th. It’s been 15 years since the United States committed the greatest war crime of the twenty-first century: the unprovoked, aggressive invasion of Iraq. The New York Times, which didn’t exactly cover itself in glory in the run-up to that invasion, recently ran an op-ed by an Iraqi novelist living in the United States entitled “Fifteen Years Ago, America Destroyed My Country,” but that was about it. The Washington Post, another publication that (despite the recent portrayal of its Vietnam-era heroism in the movie "The Post") repeatedly editorialized in favor of the invasion, marked the anniversary with a story about the war’s “murky” body count. Its piece concluded that at least 600,000 people died in the decade and a half of war, civil war, and chaos that followed — roughly the population of Washington, D.C.

But who knows, if Rabin Dems can get it done, why shouldn't Likud Republican have some glory too:

What a "prestigious" award. Don't you have to bomb 7 countries, overthrow governments, become the king of drone murders, create millions of displaced peoples and refugees to get the Nobel Peace Prize?

Although have this sinking feeling that latest nomination of GOPA leader could end up like these previous nominations:


2018:

Trump Nominated For Nobel Peace Price

he summit in Singapore has made US President Donald Trump "a man of peace," according to two Norwegian parliamentary representatives (from the Frp party), and as NRK reports, they have nominated him for the most gifted award of all of them.

Representatives Christian Tybring-Gjedde (Frp) and Per-Willy Amundsen (Frp) believe it qualifies Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.

"What's happening now is historical. A process is underway to ensure world peace in the future. It's a fragile process, but we must of course do what we can to help this process bring good results. I think that we can do by sending a clear signal by giving Trump the peace prize."​

And amid all the left's dismay at just what was agreed, the two Norwegian parliamentarians, however, do not believe that a peace-winning nomination is too early.

"It's not a binding agreement, but it's an initiative to visit both ways, it's an initiative to end the disaster going on and to put a damper on the military exercises the United States has with South Korea. As such, this is a push to Donald Trump to continue what he has already started," says Tybring-Gjedde.
"It would not be the first time giving the peace prize to anyone involved in a process. It has happened before. Obviously, we will follow the process carefully, but at least you have arrived, I think is worth a peace prize, "says Amundsen.
​

The Norwegian nomination follows a group of 18 GOP lawmakers led by Rep. Luke Messer of Indiana, who signed a letter formally nominating President Trump for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize in May.

North Korea Marks Year of Failed Trump Peace Summit With Missile Test
March 1, 2020

• Two unidentified projectiles launched Monday, South Korea says
• Move comes year after Trump-Kim summit collapsed in Hanoi

North Korea launched two unidentified projectiles off its eastern coast, South Korea’s defense ministry said, a move that comes just after the year anniversary of the failed Hanoi summit between leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. President Donald Trump.

He's earned it!

One good thing that definitely works in Trump's favor is that he hasn't started any new wars since taking office. Obama started new wars AFTER he received the Nobel Peace Prize. Had Trump did that Liberals would be demanding that he should be stripped of his award.

The Israel-UAE deal is what my Fox link cites as well.

Yes, I have problems with many of the things Trump has done with Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, etc., make no mistake. The fact he hasn't started a new war is the most important factor, I believe, and audacious moves such as trying to launch a peace process with North Korea are welcome as well. I wish he and oh-so-many would stop giving a shit about NK's and Iran's chemistry-set nuclear projects, but sometimes beggars can't be selective.

Now, what the hell are "Rabin Dems" and "Likud Republicans"? I must be horribly behind on my political vernacular.

Peace through weapons sales to the UAE

By Ariel Gold September 9, 2020

Next week, Donald Trump will host a ceremonial signing of the Israel-United Arab Emirates deal to normalize relations between the two countries. The deal has been condemned by many for failing to secure even a single concession for Palestinians. But shortly after the deal was announced, another downside — and perhaps the U.S.’s primary motivation for pursuing the deal — came sharply into focus: tens of billions of dollars in UAE weapons sales.

Now, what the hell are "Rabin Dems" and "Likud Republicans"? I must be horribly behind on my political vernacular.

It's from 'follow the money' book of vernaculars, refers to Soros Dems and Adelson Republicans respectively.

Interesting and worth some investigation. Everything has to be some goddamned rabbit hole.
