And yet you didn't apologise for Obama not apologising for his wars, but you apologised for Obama shamelessly accepting Nobel Peace Prize after he did (and started new) wars. Yes, you are smart indeed. Here, have a cookie. You can call

All Obama had to do - to have some modicum of respect by the world (despite him doing wars, but world already is accustomed to US being involved in wars, meh) - was to reject the Nobel Peace Prize. But he failed. And by doing the opposite,

That's actually true in India, because India has a huge population. So no matter where you are in India, you are never too far from civilization. Some people have backpacked across India with just a few essentials. Nepal and Bhutan has

Let my little assistant help you out on this topic. Below is a timeline cross-reference of Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize (2009) and U.S. wars / major military actions. Summary: It is overwhelmingly likely (and effectively certain) that Oba

Please learn to read and comprehend. I have rebutted both of your illogical arguments. YOU SAID>This is run of the mill copypasta about Obama's Nobel Prize and has zero relevance to whether or not Trump not getting the award is casu

Ironically Obama did more wars, while Trump has stopped/paused more wars. And like a hypocrite, Obama went and personally collected the Nobel Peace Prize AFTER he had certainly signed off on new wars and conflicts. But I think you alre

My point is not just that Nobel Committe offered the Nobel Peace Prize to Barack Obama, it is that: he went and accepted it in person, AFTER he had already certainly signed off on new wars (you can cross-check their timelines) almost immedi

Fat chance expecting the European nations to stand up to USA's strong-arm tactics, when they have willingly supported it blindly for every new war in the past (as NATO coalition). Oh wait, it was the British+Europeans who allowed the U

Yeah, I realise the Nobel prizes cannot be revoked. It was sarcasm. But let's hear it from the horse's mouth.. The secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Geir Lundestad, wrote in his memoir that the decision “did not achieve

My apologies. Yes, you are right, Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, not Geneva. However, you are incorrect on your first point. Nobel Peace Prize is decided by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, a group of five members appointed by

What is copy-pasta here? All these facts about Obama and his wars are known to the world. Or do Americans have wool on their eyes when it comes to their politicians' wrongdoings? It is my bad that I wrote Geneva instead of Oslo. But th

A simple Google search of the wars started/involved by USA under the regime of Obama should tell you whether it is historical fact or a syndrome of your own coinage.

Which would be true if the Nobel Peace Prize wasn't given to Barack Obama (and never revoked despite the overwhelming evidence his actions led to more wars). Because he shamelessly went to Geneva to personally collect the Nobel Peace
