Nobel prize has nothing to do with peace

The unthinkable and ridiculous decision by the Nobel committee depends on the formation of the group and the award procedure. In 1939, the committee included Adolf Hitler on the nominee list under pressure from Germany. In 1989, the committee awarded the peace prize to Dalai Lama, a Tibetan slave master involved in armed rebellion and national abruption. In 2009, it listed the armed secessionist force leader Rebiya Kadeer as a nominee in response to the pressure from the US. In the same year, it awarded the peace prize to US President Barack Obama, who was at that time sending more troops to Afghanistan, as "good will" to the world's super military power. This year, it awarded the "peace prize" to Liu Xiaobo, a law offender who tries to subvert China. Another favorite son of the committee, former Soviet leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev, with "peaceful means", destroyed and disrupted his country and was followed by instability, depression and regional conflict that plagued his people. However, the nominees had never included Mahatma Gandhi, the nonviolent and noncooperation movement leader who led the resistance to the British colonial rule in India and Deng Xiaoping, the paramount leader of China who lifted Chinese people from poverty and recovered the colonized Hong Kong and Macao by peaceful means. Apparently, the committee not only imposes its biased views on others, moreover, it strikes the real peace loving and contributing people with arms of ideology and values. The committee is selling its political positions in the name of the Nobel prize to achieve an even ulterior aim.

However, to such a trick by some rare extremists for their own enjoyment, there are some western politicians coming out to applaud. They are President Obama, who even felt embarrassed at his prize, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and president of the European Committee Jose Manuel Barroso. These people's support gives a complete disclosure of the political function of the peace prize. Fortunately, more and more people are coming to recognize the essence of the prize and as a result pay no attention to it or stand out to expose the conspiracy.
