In Counterpunch today, Barry Lando makes a case for giving the Nobel
Peace Prize to Vladimir Putin. Well, he asks, would this be any more
absurd than awarding it to Obama? And he forgot to mention Kissinger.
Jesus, who would write an article like this? What is the point of it?
Peace through bombs, murder, death in large numbers. One disgusting
dictator supporting another. Maybe Assad could agree to resign, and
then he could share in the prize.
I actually think that the idea of a Nobel Peace Prize for Putin makes
perfect sense. It would be consistent with such past winners: Theodore
Roosevelt (1906), Woodrow Wilson (1919), George Marshall (1953), Henry
Kissinger (1973), Menachem Begin (1978), Elie Wiesel (1986), Yitzhak
Rabin/Shimon Peres (1994), and especially Barack Obama (2009).
