A Nobel peace prize winner's appeal - 10 December 2008

[TheModelification]

President Carter got the peace prize too. You know Obama was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize twelve days after taking office. Upon acceptance of winning it, Obama was praised by the committee, "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy". . They also gave the peace prize to Yasser Arafat, the leader of the PLO, the best known terrorist organization on the globe. This is like giving it to David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the KKK.

Martti Ahtisaari received this peace prize for the rape of the Serbs in Kosovo, he didn't do it for free though. Albanians call him the King of Albania, history repeats itself. Hitler stole Kosovo away from the Serbs in WWII and gave it to the Albanians in WWII, under Martti Ahtisaari's watch the Albanians of Kosovo destroyed over 300 Serbian Orthodox Churches and Monasteries, The Albanians murdered thousands of Serb civilians also under his watch. To this the west rewards the Noble Peace Prize?

[203207ab]

sounds like a douchebag coward to me.

screw peace.

[ospehu1]

And un like other European politician this man hase shown to the World that he only man to take seriously as an President To European Union. Example what have Tony Blear done to have that post. And what have eany on else politician done that can be compare to hes achievement. How meany other Nobelist of Peace that Europe stands for. Is there in Europe eany other politician whom can say that he hase done same than this Guy?

[TheTruthNow000]

2242bzo, Fuck You too!! President Obam did not start any wars. Your Nazi friend Cheney did. Fuck you. You are an insignificant scumbag.

[ospehu1]

First of all Yes we have the aliance whit Nazis in WW2 that is true. But we did not share same ideology than Nazis and we did not kill the Jews back then! second of all this mane really deserve hes Nobel un like Barack Obama what has he done to deserve it Nobels should not be given from the task you maid achieve but the things you have achieve!

[2242bzo]

Wow. I just shot an Iraqi child, and blew up an Afghani woman. Now I deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. Cool. So, if the leader of Iraq or Afghanistan comes here and murders Obama's kids or wife, I guess we need to give that murdering fellow a Peace Prize too?  Is that how it works? Fuck you Obama, murderer and liar. Same as Bush, Clinton, and the rest of the scum. Stop murdering folks in my name, using my tax dollars to do it with.

[ProsecuteCheneyEtAl]

All Americans should get a peace prize for electing a guy whose middle name is "Hussein." Who would ever have predicted that?

Most people aren't as prejudiced as we sometimes think.l

[Speegs23]

And some are more prejudice then they'll ever admit, just as you've demonstrated.

[ProsecuteCheneyEtAl]

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say, speege

[Speegs23]

No not really, you displayed a holier than thou attitude as if you were above prejudice and it was the plight of other people but exempt from your own attitudes, ironically manifesting a prejudice.

[ProsecuteCheneyEtAl]

Oh, Well I don't agree with that analysis.  I may be a holier than thou asshole, but that doesn't mean I'm prejudiced!

[Speegs23]

Then you have an ill-defined use of the word.

[GrenMoyo]

as long as humans exist in this world there will be wars.

[fulcrum100]

i cant belive that smirking asshole has just won the nobel peace prize 2009..... and men like Muhammad Yunus doing REAL work on the ground, like this. and SoS Kindersdorf were passed over for the grinning asshole? Jesus Wept.

[seseljsrs]

Serbia must be forced to recognize Kosovo, Ahtisaari

12.02.2009

EU must be united in its demands that Serbia must first recognize Kosovo as an independent country if it is to be granted membership, suggest Martti Ahtisaari, Wolfgang Ischinger and Albert Rohan.

Only a united position of the European Union, combined with the statement that Serbias membership in the European Union is impossible until this problem is solved in its entirety..."

[siobelaup]

As I see this was an intense debate on the "Nobel peace "prize. interesting to say the least. Is it because "peace" is not understood in a similar manner amongst people? Or is it because there are always different agends written in parallel?

I might as well declare my feet the nobel peace prize winner for next year.

[shininglight007]

But acually everyone that has a little bit of common sense understands that this crap Nobel peace prize is just a bullshit political prize, it has always been and always will be. You get the prize if you have been a whore and served the pimp chieftan of USA nad other western nations, and therefore arthisaari is nothing but a big fat whore. (i apologize to the whores/prositutes for being compared to a scum like ahtisaari)

[TheCrazyFinn]

He was representing NATO in the Kosovo negotiations. He said in a Finnish interview: "I gave them(Serbs) the papers and told them to sign, or we(NATO) will continue the bombings."

[setakakki]

Even though he said that. He wasn't representing NATO. It was a typo. He was representing the UN/EU. I'm not completely sure. But wasn't the Serbia bombing a UN operation. Lead the by the Americans..

[TheCrazyFinn]

"NATO's bombing campaign lasted from March 24 to June 11, 1999, involving up to 1,000 aircraft operating mainly from bases in Italy and aircraft carriers stationed in the Adriatic. Tomahawk cruise missiles were also extensively used, fired from aircraft, ships and submarines."

"NATO bombings: Human Rights Watch was only able to verify 500 civilian deaths throught Yugoslavia, with other sources stating from 1,200 to 5,700"

Source: Wikipedia

[setakakki]

Ok. My bad. But Martti wasn't a NATO representative then and he isn't one now.However, today he says Finland should join NATO. But because it would help Finlands part in peacekeeping works, not in the agenda of joining an military alliance but joining to help Finland to help.

[laegunum]

Nobel prize is BS? Sounds like envy to me. And calling someone a "whore" and a "scum" pretty much proves the point. The West owns the 3rd world. And given what horrible atrocities the Serbs committed (ethnic cleanisng et al), they were not punished hard enough.

[shininglight007]

"The west owns the 3rd world". Unlike you, I don't support the systematical slaughter of the citizens of the 3rd world. Those atrocities in the balkans were commited by all sides but only the serbs were viewed as enemies by the media, and if you believe that some people should be punished, than how would you punish the us government for overthrowing democratic regimes in the 3rd world and supporting fascist regimes who killed and impoverished millions of their citizens.

[setakakki]

Name one country that tried to completely kill Turks, Albanians, Kosovians ect in the area. Or Serbs..

[setakakki]

errr? Shows good maturity. But still. Martti Ahtisaari hasn't done anything particular to USA.. or Europe. If you don't count the faster peace of the Balkan and Northeren Ireland. Plus the things in Africa and Indoneasia.

[shininglight007]

If ahtisaari can get the Nobel Peace Prize, then I want to suggest to the nobel commitee that for the following year of 2009 that they pick Adolf Hitler. Ahtisaaris view of peace is not to compromise to make all parts satisfied, but to destroy and remove one side to make peace. The side that gets removed is usually the one that don't fit the grand imperial plan.

[setakakki]

Who did Ahtisaari "remove" in Indonesia, Ireland, Namibia or Kosovo? Min svenska vän. Read the newspaper and don't be so objective. You remind me of the Russians of the 1930-60.

"THE CAPITALIST PIGS ARE WHORES WHO WANT THE ETERNAL SUFFEREING OF ALL"... And unlike Hitler, Ahtisaari didn't commit genocide. He hasn't killed millions of people. He has saved lives.

[ProtectUsFromTheLie]

Obama is really a Zionist puppet. My country, the United States of America, has been hijacked by "dual Israeli" citizens who are rabid, fanatical Zionists.

They do not want peace in the Middle East.

[serlups]

time to go HD

[shellius]

Fantastic video. Obama has to get his priorities away from this fake war on terror and back to making peace. This war shit is getting old.

[bb7777888]

Osama bin Laden or George W Bush, who is next?

[degergard]

He is a hero!

[tkstka]

eikös sul oo mopo paskana? Jos menisit korjaamaan mopoa ja jättäisit nämä poliittiset asiat meille aikuisille.

[abarzilai664]

It's funny that for the first time the peace prize went to someone who actully deserved it, and Matti is fully qualified.

[Mxyzptlk562]

The first time????

[tkstka]

yep

[Mxyzptlk562]

Ever?

I mean over the past 107 years some great people and have been recognized for their efforts to attain peace. Are you familiar with them at all?

[im4wur]

You didn't approve of: WANGARI MAATHAI - DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS (MÉDECINS SANS FRONTIÈRES) - INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO BAN LANDMINES (ICBL) - NELSON MANDELA - RIGOBERTA MENCHU TUM - AUNG SAN SUU KYI - MIKHAIL SERGEYEVICH GORBACHEV ?

These are some winners just since 1990. I'm curious who you would have chosen instead, in each of these cases.

[abarzilai664]

Sorry I was reffering to the recent recipents Jimmy Carter and Al Gore. The other people you mentioned are deserving of the prize as well, please forgive me for this I didn't mean any offense.

[im4wur]

No offense taken. I just thought your statement was much too broad. As such, I took the opportuntiy to clarify the value of this award (to my mind).

IMHO, to denegrate all past winners (except one). Is to denegrate the achievements of many great people. Who have given freely of themselves to provide perhaps the most significant gifts human beings can offer.

I apologize if I've injured you by using your comment to make what I thought to be an important point. Please forgive my boldness.

[im4wur]

btw, the caps were a legacy from the web site from which I snagged that list. I was just too lazy to rewrite them all (I didn't mean to 'shout'). Sorry.

[followthefleet]

It's clearer than ever, that peace is the only alternative for a more stable world. And we need a stable world to confront so many challenges: from ecology, to climate change, to population increase, to economic crises. Peace will win out in the end...especially as we discover more and more men and women like these...men and women of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. Non-violence is not for sissies. It is a new way to fight...a complete substitute for war.

[sephsotiroth]

right!!

[im4wur]

followthefleet - Very well said! Thank you!!!

[im4wur]

Ironic that the first 5 posts on an appeal by Nobel Peace Prize winner are all so jaded. Makes me wonder why you don't CONTRIBUTE instead of complaining? - Is is because you think it won't hurt so much. If you don't try? If so, you are wrong.

[johntabbot]

everyone from kissinger to arafat has gotten nobel prizes ... worthless/meaningless awards

[pu186]

i suppose sometimes these things do lack the advantage of hindsight.

[ball4thegame]

yeah, it is unfortunate that obama is just another NWO puppet.

[Organjic]

Obama won't do shit for America or the world but rather for the elites.

[pu186]

what does he have to gain?

[akamal1113]

respect

[Organjic]

immunity from the next holocaust.

[mfitzp]

Isn't it funny how the media shows the "golden globes" but no mention of this.

[Organjic]

Most of america is brainwashed to care about the golden goober awards rather than their rights being taken away.

[pu186]

that is very ballsy of you to speak for most of america. i'm sure your credentials on the subject are impeccable.

[Organjic]

do your research and you'll learn the truth.

[pu186]

define "the media" because i'm pretty sure youtube = media and aljazeera english = media.

[Organjic]

Im sure he meant mainstream media.
