Weeks before being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, President Barack Obama made a historic speech about the war in Afghanistan at West Point, the most prestigious military academy in the US.
In his speech to the military cadets, which was carefully written and professionally delivered, Mr. President used the word “war” 25 times, the word “kill” six times and “peace” only three times. In his Nobel Prize speech in Oslo, not long after West Point, the same gravity of the language of “war” was seen again with the same professionalism: “war” 44 times, “kill” five times and “peace” 31 times. |
And the Nobel Peace Prize Goes to: a Warrior

October 15, 2009- Escalation in Afghanistan
- Continuation in Iraq

- Suppressing the Torture Photos and,
- Refusing Prosecution of War Criminals
Is this OK because Obama — and not Bush — is in charge?
Barack Obama, the latest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, is coming to town at the Saint Francis Hotel
in San Francisco.
What do you have to say about this?
Join World Can’t Wait and many other anti-war & anti-torture activists as we protest Obama’s rebranding of the Bush/Cheney program of endless war, preventive detention, and legalized torture.
Additionally, many other groups (such as those organized around single-payer healthcare) will no doubt make their presence felt.
We will also award this pro-war, pro-torture president with the newly-created, George Orwell “War is Peace” Prize.

The Nobel Committee’s tradition is long and inglorious, but for the well-informed no surprise. Consider its past honorees:
– Henry Kissinger;
– Shimon Peres;
– Yitzhak Rabin;
– Menachem Begin;
– FW de Klerk;
– Al Gore;
Obama and the Nobel Prize: When War becomes Peace, When the Lie becomes the Truth

When war becomes peace,
When concepts and realities are turned upside down,
When fiction becomes truth and truth becomes fiction.
War Criminal Obama Deserves An Oscar, But Not A Nobel Peace Prize
October 9, 2009source: Infowars
In a world where war criminals like Tony Blair are rewarded and those that oppose war criminals, like the Iraqi shoe thrower Muntadhar al-Zeidi, are imprisoned and tortured, it comes as no surprise that another war criminal – Barack H. Obama – has been rewarded for his stoic service to imperial bloodletting with the Nobel Peace Prize.
The man who gallantly promised “change” from the Bush regime’s illegal wars and a return to diplomacy over belligerency in dealing with Iran, has perpetuated the illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq while expanding another in Pakistan and becoming belligerent towards Iran.
