--- Quote from: Otis Da HousKat on October 09, 2009, 04:12:11 PM ---Peace through violence. --- End quote --- Being violent towards terrorism isn't going to result in peace. --- Quote from: Otis Da HousKat on October 09, 2009, 04:14:23 PM ---Some people I know were bitching about this acting as if it was Obama who pushed for the reward. --- End quote --- I'm not really angered at Obama for this, but at the committee or whatever it is that decides this thing. Why was he even nominated in the first place? |

--- Quote from: Niliscro on October 09, 2009, 04:11:22 PM ---He's considering sending 40,000 more troops over to the Middle East. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that isn't very peaceful. --- End quote --- This is what I'm talking about. People are either thinking about the war stuff he's done, or the things that any normal person does. "War war war" "Obama family has big house! Black people have houses!" "War war war" "Obama family goes to grocery store! Black people eat!" |

But honestly, I don't see how a peace prize can be awarded to an advocate of militarily actions. |

I don't live in the US so I don't keep up with it. (Though even if I did I still wouldn't.) But I'm pretty sure I've seen a few facts somewhere in here: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=85258.0 |

So he's cooperated with other world leaders, while I'm sure others have done things more worthy. |
