In the latest chapters of the competition; “This nonsense cannot be fabricated” in global politics and diplomacy, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.
In other words, the person who is currently overseeing the genocide of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, suggested that the highest international prize to be awarded peace to the person who is the main component of that genocide- the man who announced in March that he “sends to Israel everything it needs to end the mission” in Gaza. This included “all” billions of dollars in deadly weapons and other aid.
Since October 2023 until now, approximately 60,000 Palestinians have been officially killed in this small sector, although the real number of victims is undoubtedly more due to the presence of a large number of lost bodies under the rubble spread everywhere.
More than 700 Palestinians have been killed in recent weeks while trying to get food in the aid distribution sites run by the “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation”, an organization backed by the United States and Israel together.
Since his return to his post in January, Trump has not limited the practice of actions far from peace, such as bombing civilians in Yemen without discrimination, and launching illegal attacks on Iran.
Indeed, it is strange that the media was able to convey the news of Trump’s nomination to the Nobel Peace Prize seriously. For example, the CNN channel notes that “the award has become Trump’s Al -Aqsa obsession, which says it is worthwhile due to his efforts to end conflicts around the world.”
Trump was informed of his candidacy on Monday, when Netanyahu visited the White House for dinner, on his third visit to Washington this year.
After thanking Netanyahu for the honor, Trump said: “Wow … that you come from you specifically, this is a great significance.”
Although “has a significance” may be an appropriate description of a face, this expression is not completely expressed in the vicinity of this entire arrangement.
However, it is not as if the Nobel Peace Prize has a bright record regarding admission on condition that they are awarded to those who “did the best or bigger work for the sake of brotherhood between nations, canceling or reducing existing armies, or holding and strengthening peace conferences.”
In 2009, the prestigious award was awarded to the new President of the United States at the time, Barack Obama, who continued to strengthen international “brotherhood” by bombing Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Iraq and Syria.
Obama also managed secret “killing lists”, in which he authorized himself the authority to carry out external military assassinations, according to his personal whims.
Among the other beneficiaries of the Nobel Peace Prize was former right -wing Colombia President Juan Manuel Santos, who reported the Israeli newspaper “Haaretz” in 2013 that he “proud” that his country is called “Latin America Israel”.
During his work as Minister of Defense during the era of former bloody President Alvaro Urby, Santos was involved in the “false positives” scandal, which witnessed the killing of more than 10,000 Colombian civilians by the soldiers, who later gave them “terrorists”.
Given the ingenuity of Israel in slaughtering civilians under the slogan “terrorism”, the comparison between the two countries was completely appropriate. What do you know? The list of the Nobel Peace Prize holders also includes the late Israeli politician Shimon Perez, who was won equally in 1994- just two years before his supervision of the 106-refugee massacre who had a United Nations gathering in Qana, Lebanon.
In 2021, Trump’s son -in -law Jared Kushner was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by the former professor of Harvard Law Faculty of Harvard Alan Dersovitz, who devoted a large part of his legal career to justify the killing of Israel Arab civilians.
In this case, Kushner’s nomination was based on his prominent role in the production of “Abraham Conventions” that printed relations between Israel and several Arab countries.
Now that normalization with genocide has become common, Trump suggested that the United States take control of the Gaza Strip, and to force its indigenous Palestinian population, and transform it into the new “Middle East Rvira”. However, all of this is just part of the daily tasks of the Nobel Peace Prize candidate.
In its coverage of the meeting in Washington- entitled: “Netanyahu is surprising Trump by nominating Nobel while the two leaders discuss the evacuation of the inhabitants of Gaza”- the Times of Israel reported that “Netanyahu said that the American and Israeli strikes against Iran had changed the face of the Middle East, and created an opportunity to expand Abraham’s agreements.” In the end, nothing expresses the “brotherhood among nations” more than removing Palestine completely.
In his contemplation of the excessive attack on Iran, for which the peace award was nominated, Trump compared his action positively to US President Harry Truman’s decision to throw nuclear bombs at the Japanese Hiroshima and Nagasaki cities during World War II.
It is self -evident that any person who evokes positively bombing hundreds of thousands of civilians with nuclear bombs must be at all qualified to obtain any kind of prizes related to peace.
But in a world where the apparent pursuit of peace is used as an excuse for more wars, Trump’s nomination may have a “great meaning”, indeed.
