Filomena ;What you had to say should be made available to a wider audIf the devil is in the detail you take the prize. I had no idea that<<<<Gandhi was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize five times: in 1937, 1938, 1939, 1947, and 1948.>>>>>I was aware about Tagore being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. I did not know but I am not surprised that the Indians themselves did little. Indeed as you so mildly put it Indians for generations have been noted for their conspicuous consumption ..diamond studded and there are millions of poor. Secondly disgusted about the present alignment regarding the Western Powers and especially the USA in the present crisis between Russia and Ukraine. The greed of the capitalistic system seems to have no limits. In Africa and the Middle East and the Far East there is a trail of killing and looting in Vietnam, Iraq Libya etc Now Africa is supposed to join hands with the looters and the killers. Oh yes, there is a huge demand created for weapons THird More than any thing else we need PEACE Let us pray for a peaceful Easter and beyond - I will come back. For the moment I have to go at the Commission of Science Technology to participate inthe celebration the 100 years of Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Birth. Yet he was identified deliberately labelled as a communist and a dictator. Yet he was a man of PEACE - Grandolfo - In a rainy,damp Makongo Juuu - - - - -
