Nobel peace prize is awarded to Obama. I am not sure whether this is a joke on peace or its Norways way of showing its support to USA...
Tears of happiness rolled down my eyes when i heard Obama was elected president of USA...I spent hours sitting in India following Obama's campaign and also follow him every day after the election. I am a ardent supporter of Obama and i will strongly campaign for him in 2012 ..
Though i love obama, though i very badly wanted obama to win the US election, though i think the first lady and Mr.President are all capable and qualified to be the president of USA,though i believe obama will definitely bring the change he proposed to bring...
I DONT THINK HE HAS DONE ENOUGH TO QUALIFY FOR NOBEL PEACE PRIZE....
PEACE???
Thousands are getting killed in Iraq AND IF NOT MORE THAN HUSSEIN ATLEAST AS EQUAL REASON FOR THE SAME IS AMERICA.
Thousands of innocents are getting killed in Afganistan... Not just by TALIBAN but also by Americas cross fire...
Majority of world arms trade happens because and through America. America is worlds largest exporter of ARMS...Inmany cases to both the waring countries...
Obama has done little to bring out a solution to Palestine and Israel solution. He has only backtraced from his earlier support for finding amicable peace deal.
Obama has not taken any steps to bring Muslim countries close to USA or any western country. He has done very little to understand or bring confidence in Muslims all over the world (they are 25% of world population)
Obama remind silent during the entire Sri lankan war when tens of thousands of innocents got killed in the war between GOSL and LTTE (innocents doesnt include GOSL and LTTE)
There is very little that Obama did to warrant a peace prize...
My list of possible contenders would have had
Sen. Piedad Cordoba, Hu jia from china, Zimbabwe prime minister Morgan Tsvangirai or they could have awarded Aung sang suu kyi again...
But Obama in my opinion doesnt deserve this award atleast not now...
All said and done... CONGRATS OBAMA!
-----Thrash my diary if u wish.. But make this clear.. am not sad at obama winning this prize but i feel obama dont deserve this so soon... I definitely feel he will be one who deserves the award in future... but today?????
