That easily makes a Nobel Peace Prize.
An attack on Iran will make it into the world's first Double Nobel Peace Prize.
Now, it's also very important to even further unite the entire world against Russian agressive war.

- NomDePlum 9mo agoMilitary action on a sovereign state is an act of war. Is that not correct?

- SpicyLemonZest 9mo agoI rejoice any time something doesn’t go Donald Trump’s way because he frequently says that he hates me and wishes to do me harm. I separately agree that Nobel Peace Prize awards often don’t make much sense.
- unnamed76ri 9mo agoTrump takes time out of his day to specifically say he hates you and wishes to do you harm? That sounds really scary, random HN user.

- SpicyLemonZest 9mo agoI feel like you’ve learned a strange, distorted version of the concept of “main character syndrome”. There’s a number of main characters who the Trump administration has gone out of their way to immiserate, and it’s entirely reasonable for fear that you might be next to motivate your politics. Trump doesn’t care about me personally yet, and presenting as many obstacles as possible to the causes he cares about will help keep it that way.
- SpicyLemonZest 9mo agoNo, his hatred is quite general, directed at various groups which I belong to some of. One time I remember well, for example, is when he posted a video of himself dumping poo on No Kings protesters (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna238521 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna238521). If a friend or relative responded to some political dispute with a video of them pooping on me, I’d be pretty scared.
- whatsupdog 9mo agoIf your biggest fear is that Trump is going to come and poop on you, you are very well protected and safe! And any stress you have is totally self inflicted.
- SpicyLemonZest 9mo agoMy biggest fear is that the kind of insane person who threatens to poop on me might do other, much worse things. It's not likely to ever happen, but doing what I can to stand against Trump seems like an effective way to minimize the risk. I celebrate when he fails, I'll celebrate when he croaks, and I hope that dancing on his grave one day will help future political movements learn what you and your favorite dictator-in-chief couldn't.
- tsimionescu 9mo agoThe fact that the cureent winner of the Nobel Peace Prize has called on the foreign power most responsible for the problems in her home country to launch a war against her home country is all the proof anyone should need of how much of a sham this prize is (if Kissinger getting it has gone out of living memory, of course). Not to say that the Maduro regime is not terrible, it obviously is, but cheering on a literal invasion makes you either a complete moron, or a psychopath of the highest order, hoping to rule over the ashes.
- JumpCrisscross 9mo ago> fact that the cureent winner of the Nobel Peace Prize has called on the foreign power most responsible for the problems in her home country to launch a war against her home country is all the proof anyone should need of how much of a sham this prize is ...wouldn't the alternative be to listen to what she's saying?
- tsimionescu 9mo agoSure, listen to her here: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-10-31/internal-embaroged-mhs-maria-corina-machado https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-10-31/internal-em... [Note: in the following, I will use quote marks around thinks I'm paraphrasing, since there is no official transcript and I don't have the patience to carefully check every word] She says that the killings of Venezuelan citizens that were killed by the US army were the fault of Maduro, by his refusal to stop collaborating with drug dealers. She also calls Maduro's actions "starting wars with other countries", parroting Trump talking points. She is saying that "finally, there is action from an international coallition", calling her own state a "narco terrorist" state, again parroting Trump pro-war talking points. When the interviewer point blank asks her if she would support US strikes on Venezuelan territory, she says that "the escalation that is taking place is the only way to get Maduro to understand that it's time to go" - so yes, she does support such strikes. To furhter the point, she talks about such escalation being the last chance for a peaceful transition, and that they have tried everything else. The interviewer presses on this point, and asks her again whether, given that Maduro was unlikely to give up power, she thinks US military actions are the only way forward - and again she confirms, using vague language - "it is absolutely required for a credible threat to exist". All of this part starts at around the 6m mark and continues to the 12m mark at least.
