    Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize

    Seems like he missed the basics principles (again). Even if the Norwegian government would, they could not do it. It’s not up to them … “Nobel Prizes are assigned by various committees depending on the category”

      And Greenland is not owned by Norway, so what does he expect Norway to do? Issue him a “Super Special Big Boy Trophy”?

      Well, if these committees were in the USA, the government (i.e. Trump) could and would decide who gets the Nobel Prizes.

      The Nobel committee does have politicians on the peace part. Which is a big mistake, as they’ve made a string of awful decisions. The entire committee has no credibility in the reality based community, thinking Obama, an institutionalist, would deserve it. Then aiby ahmed, su kyi, now a zionist at the tail end of a two year long final solution for their ghetto, lashing out at all of their neighbors under false pretexts with their overwhelming military advantage. That also advocated for a us backed coup of her own country.

      A coup that happened already, the military made a deal clearly, they let the helicopters through, the US wouldn’t have tried that mission if they had not gave up intel and agreed to stand down. The army is the de facto ruler, will oversee the now puppet civilian government signing over assets and concessions and after resistance forms to wholesale oil drilling for foreign interests sees attacks on oil infrastructure and what have you, the army will get into atrocities, and if history is any guide establish paramilitaries to do the dirty work they don’t want to do directly, like run death squads through villages to collectively punish them, paid for by black market drug and weapon sales.

      I mention this, because that is the legacy of this nobel prize, that is what will result from the coup she advocated. The nobel committee is beyond a joke, might as well have given it to the president at this point.
