Despotism and tyranny rewarded by Nobel Committee. - Page 1

It's got a collapsing currency and rioting on the streets but the European Union wins the Nobel PEACE Prize
Nobel committee said the award was for 'the advancement of peace and reconciliation, democracy and human rights'
But critics condemn the move at a time when the bloc is gripped by the Eurozone crisis and facing serious questions about its future
Tory MEPs joke the Nobel committee 'is a little late for an April fools joke' and declare: 'Parody is redundant'
The prize is awarded by a panel of five people from Norway - which is not even a member of the EU

The European Union was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize yesterday, despite a year marked by rioting and the prospect of an acrimonious break-up of the euro.
Awarding the prize, the Norwegian committee praised the EU for its six decades of contributions 'to the advancement of peace and reconciliation, democracy and human rights in Europe'.
However, the announcement caused widespread bemusement and derision, with critics pointing out that it comes as the eurozone battles the worst recession for nearly a century.
The past 12 months have also seen Brussels help to push aside the democratically elected governments in Greece and Italy, and widespread civil unrest and rioting.
This week saw Greek citizens dressed as Nazis burn swastika flags to protest at a visit to Athens by German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Last night former Chancellor Lord Lamont ridiculed the decision, saying: 'Today's decision seems preposterous and absurd.
'It would require a heart of stone not to die of laughter. It is the most ridiculous decision since the committee gave the peace prize to Barack Obama when he had been US President for two minutes.'
Nobel committee chairman Thorbjoern Jagland acknowledged that the EU was facing 'grave economic difficulties and considerable social unrest'

However, UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage said: 'Never a week goes by that we don't see riots and protests in capital cities against the economic prison they have imposed. Rather than bring peace and harmony, the EU will cause insurgency and violence.'
Arch eurosceptic Bill Cash said: 'It is like giving an Oscar to a box office flop. It is thanks to Nato, the Marshall Plan and the help of the United States that Europe maintained peace after World War Two, certainly not the European Union.'
Ridicule also flowed in from the City, where businesses and banks fear a breakup of the euro. Peter Hargreaves, co-founder of financial adviser Hargreaves Lansdown, said: 'It's mad. It will be interesting to see if they take it back if Greece dissolves into martial law.'

It would have made as much sense to posthumously give the award to Stalin and the U.S.S.R.

Very good points gsm44. Wasn't Obama given the Nobel Peace Prize too? But why? He still permits black prisons and extraordinary renditions with torture, and extra-judicial state murders by his signature (signed findings), and orders and allows anonymous mass murder of innnocents by drone attacks which make many mistakes and often kill numerous innocents, merely classified as "collateral dammge" rather than murdered human beings. Yes, something is seriously wrong with the Nobel Committees in Scandivaia. Of course Nobel himself was the inventor of high explosives and a major arms manufacturer so could there be a sinister force lurking in the background or has the awardes process been hijacked. Certainly these types of awards discredit the whole Nobel awards system.

maybe nobel prize winners are sanctioned by NWO.
