Obama Wins the Nobel Peace Prize? Slap Forum getting informed!

I was just getting into work this morning when I heard the news that President Barack H. Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize. I was a bit taken back and had to look it up online to make sure what I'd heard was accurate. It just seemed to far fetched, even for the mind control masters that is the New World Order. I found out that this in fact was true, and I just couldn't believe it. A man who has not only caused mass deaths in the past 9 months as America's commander in chief. All this after he lied to and manipulated the American people into falling for his empty campaign promises of peace and change. So this just sucked so I turned from this info and went to the Slap site to see what's going on in the skate world today, as an escape from the madness. To my surprise it was right there on Slap's front page! Way to go Slap! When I opened the thread I saw many great responses by Slap forum regulars which got me very excited! I wanted to of course give me response but as I said before I'm at work and unfortuately time was not on my side, so I was only able to write a small response without being able to site much. I'm still at work but I had to put something up on the blog about this news ASAP so I will post my response on the Slap thead and an article from infowars.com that was also posted on Slap by Slap Pal "Commercial D". I would also like to mention Slap Pal "grimcity"s humble response, a picture of Henry Kissenger another Nobel Peace Prize winner and advisor to President Obama. I also should mention that scam artist Al Gore was also given this award, so you can put all this together and get an idea of how credible the Nobel Prize Commitee is. Here is my response to the thread: "this is just another ploy to make obama seem like he is a man of peace to the masses of sheep, when he is in fact the exact opposite. as was his election as the president of the UN's national security council as few weeks back. this makes him pretty much the president of the UN as well as america. he has followed the failed foreign policies of bush and has actually increased the number of military personel/gov't contractors in iraq and afghanistan, as well as made threats toward iran and pakistan. the worst part about this is that he is in no way representing the majority of american citizens and again like bush did embarrassing us. our poll numbers show that americans stongly oppose the wars overseas. and our consititution does not even allow this wars because they were never officially delcared by congress. obama was elected on being an anti-war candidate for change, however if you did you research as only few americans did you would've looked at his senate record and realized that this was all just campaign rhetoric. the only HOPE i see is that many americans are finally waking up and understanding that our presidents are nothing more than front men for the same agenda. be it democrat or republican they are now one in the same working for the same people, who work behind the curtain. this is even more clearly evident with obama with him openly having advisors such as henry kissenger on his staff. and his already failing monetary policy who he attributes to alan greenspan and paul volker, men who beleive the federal reserve is above the law are the ones who should really determine americas monetary policies. anyone on this site who actually says "i like obama" and really thinks he is a guy who wants what's best for this country and the world need to do some serious research, however i understand where you are coming from. you may like him becase you agree change is needed, but ask yourself what kind of change? as i mentioned before he ran saying the war needed to end and troops needed to come home and nice things like that and then when he got into office did the exact opposite. obama obviously doenst deserve this award, but does that matter? the nobel prize council is completely corrupts and means nothing, remember these are the saepeople who gave al gore this same award for his man made global warming scam he has been working on.do some research on that as well if you dont know what im talking about. in the mean time you can check out my clog for my new video where we touch on these subjects. there will be an update for this as well later tonight. www.tmkfvideo.blogspot.com" and here is the link so you can check the progression of this thread: http://www.slapmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=33&topic=39432.msg1025648#new

War Criminal Obama Deserves An Oscar, But Not A Nobel Peace Prize

In a world where war criminals like Tony Blair are rewarded and those that oppose war criminals, like the Iraqi shoe thrower Muntadhar al-Zeidi, are imprisoned and tortured, it comes as no surprise that another war criminal – Barack H. Obama – has been rewarded for his stoic service to imperial bloodletting with the Nobel Peace Prize.

The man who gallantly promised “change” from the Bush regime’s illegal wars and a return to diplomacy over belligerency in dealing with Iran, has perpetuated the illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq while expanding another in Pakistan and becoming belligerent towards Iran.

How in anyone’s mind can such behavior constitute a move towards peace?

Obama has done nothing to dismantle the sprawling network of well over 700 U.S. military bases all over the world.

Instead of coming to an understanding with Iran over their nuclear power program, Obama gleefully read from his trusty teleprompter and crafted the hoax that the Iranian nuclear facility at Qom was an evil secret that the Iranians had kept hidden from America as part of a clandestine agenda to build nuclear weapons. In reality, Iran had followed precisely the guidelines set out by the IAEA on when to report the facility and the U.S. had known about it for several years anyway.

Obama’s slick propaganda in expressing his shock at the “discovery” of the plant was worthy of an Oscar but not a Nobel Peace Prize, since the scam has increased the likelihood of sanctions on Iran that will only accelerate the path to war.

By dutifully playing his part in this contrived hoax, Obama was mimicking the tactics of how George W. Bush sold the attack on Iraq.

As Paul Craig Roberts wrote, “By accusing Iran of having a secret “nuclear weapons program” and demanding that Iran “come clean” about the nonexistent program, adding that he does not rule out a military attack on Iran, Obama mimics the discredited Bush regime’s use of nonexistent Iraqi “weapons of mass destruction” to set up Iraq for invasion.”

The fact that Obama launched himself into the role of war hawk in an effort to propagandize for belligerency towards Iran completely discredits the claim by Nobel Committee chairman Thorbjoern Jagland that Obama “Has been a key person for important initiatives in the U.N. for nuclear disarmament and to set a completely new agenda for the Muslim world and East-West relations.”

Obama’s acting skills in front of a teleprompter and his slick rhetoric about peace and diplomacy may look good on the surface, but the reality of what he has actually done to further the PNAC agenda for endless war underlines why the award of the Peace Prize is a sick joke.

If Obama intended to bring peace to the world, then why were his early appointments mostly neo-liberal war hawks who have a history of backing military adventurism?

If Obama is such a huge peacenik, then why has he sent 21,000 more troops to Afghanistan already, with tens of thousands more at least on the way?

If Obama plans to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq and bring peace to the region, then why has he gone back on his promise and ensured that tens of thousands of U.S. troops will remain in the country?

If Obama is so deserving of being recognized for his efforts towards peace, then why has he intensified the Bush-era missile drone attacks in Afghanistan and Pakistan that have killed and injured countless innocent civilians?

If Obama is so interested in promoting peace, then why does he protect war criminals who have violated the Geneva Conventions from prosecution?

Beyond the meaningless platitudes served up by his fellow elitist snobs, the true hilarity of Obama receiving the prize was illustrated by just a couple of individuals who the corporate media dared to quote.

Issam al-Khazraji, a day laborer in Baghdad, told Reuters: “He doesn’t deserve this prize. All these problems — Iraq, Afghanistan — have not been solved…The man of ‘change’ hasn’t changed anything yet.”

“Liaqat Baluch, a senior leader of the Jamaat-e-Islami, a conservative religious party in Pakistan, called the award an embarrassing “joke.”

“By implementing his war continuation plan, Obama will complete the work of Bush and his militarist clique,” writes author Chris Floyd, and in doing so send, “an apparently endless stream of American troops to die — and, in even greater numbers, to kill — in a criminal action that has helped bankrupt our own country while sending waves of violent instability and extremism around the world. It will further enfilth a cesspool of corruption and war profiteering that has already reached staggering, world-historical proportions.”

Floyd encapsulates perfectly why Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize award is a disgusting farce, an insult to those who really are fighting for peace in the world, and just another reminder that the Nobel Peace Prize represents little more than a gaggle of back-slapping elitists who bestow awards upon each other so that they can pose as global saviors to the public when in reality they are mostly a bunch of crooks, con-artists and deceivers.
