Norwegian Nobel Committee awards 2012 Nobel Peace Prize to the European Union

The European Union has been announced the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize 2012. Amidst Europe’s as-yet-unsolved crippling economic backdrop, a heated debate emerged over the validity of the prize.
The unanimous decision was reportedly made by a five-person panel chaired by Council of Europe Secretary-General Thorbjoern Jagland, a strong advocate of the 27-nation block.

REU: PRESIDENT OF EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT MARTIN SCHULZ SAYS "DEEPLY TOUCHED AND HONOURED" THAT EU HAS WON NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

Say that to the thousands of Libyans NATO killed when they bombed.
Or the millions that are now without drinkable water because NATO destroyed the artificial aquifer Gaddafi built.

This is a joke, just as bad as when Obama himself won the award.

RT @chrisadamsmkts: RT @finansakrobat The Peace Prize winner gets 1.15 million euros. That's 0.0022 euros per citizen of EU.

Ah, so Nobel is now from the Onion then ;)

Is this some kind of joke ?. Convenient that the London bombings were 7 years ago and dont count. I have three little words that makes this a sham, Anders Behring Breivik. And lets not forget the failing attempts at Multiculturalism, Austerity riots, Greece and Spain falling apart, yep its been a real time of peace.

This is to try and make them feel good about themselves on how badly they all fucked up, this is an open and blatant insult to the familys of the children who Breivik killed in cold blood.

Its their attempt of washing their hands of everything, but i have news for them, the guilt will stay with you like a bad taste in your mouths for ever.

This wont get pinned because its a non American thread.
