When Nobel Peace Prize Goes To
Environment and discriminatory
Human Rights, Peace Becomes Illusive Ignoring
Ongoing US/NATO War Crimes!

[From the Author of “Poems by Kolki –
Absolutely Humane”, a recipe for better world]
[Abstract: Among many peace
prizes around the world Nobel Peace Prize
is recognized as the most prestigious one. But we often forget as media deifies
the winner(s) that prestige is a synonym of aristocracy and royalty which also
sustains wars and Monarchies. This article will review the original intention
of the peace prize as envisioned by Alfred Nobel in 1895 and
its historical implications since then as world embraced WW I, WW II, wars in (Korea,
Vietnam, Laos & Cambodia), Iraq-Iran war, NATO bombing in Yugoslavia as
well as illegal US-Led invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan - killing, wounding,
and displacing millions. It seems the peace prize has been used often to promote
evangelical Christianism and feudal colonial Capitalism around the world by the
Norwegian Monarchy established in 1905 which is an extension of Danish-British Monarchy
with pride in Nordic Superiority.
It will also be evident that in some instances the prize even instigated
violence in a country like Indonesia (East Timor)
and Tibet while ignoring
true Arms Control effort like Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty as well as
strong Monarchial support for Arming Israel with Nuclear capability. It can also
be concluded that the conversion of Democratic United States of America to Constitutional
Monarchy started with awarding the prize to bullyish president Theodore Roosevelt
in 1906, prior to WW I, and ended with 9/11/2001 making New
York Mayor Rudolf Giuliani the Knight,
Vice-President Cheney the Monarch and demoting Presidency as a puppet domestic
Prime Minister following military command. Finally, the prize honoured many for humanitarian reasons but ignored/punished system/people who
eradicated hunger and homelessness with egalitarian vision.]
{Note: One should read
this article keeping in mind that behind all rhetoric of Democracy most NATO
countries are Constitutional
Monarchs, Vatican
is Absolute Monarchy, and USA is without a Central Election Commission with
administrative authority guaranteeing fair election throughout the country
enforcing standard election techniques, practices, and verification process!
Thus, like ‘war on
terror’, if USA declares martial law
NATO will probably follow through endangering true democracies and human rights around the
world!}
We must always cheer the goodwill
toward good environment,
but the 2007 Nobel Peace Award is a direct slap for the true peace activists and
peace loving leaders around the world who have been working fervently for achieving
lasting world peace in a lawful and truthful global society! It once again ignored
that aggressive military activities around the world are the main causes of global
warming and pollution besides destruction of Earth and killings of sentient being.
In fact, leaders who fought vehemently against all odds to stop US-led illegal Iraqi
invasion must have been ideal candidates to respect peace and truth.
Very few
people probably know that Alfred Nobel
made his fortune through Explosives (Dynamite
& Ballistite) Making Defense Industry and selling them to then Norwegian-Swedish military union, as well as countries
including Germany, France, Belgium, Russia, and USA. But the intention to invest his vast financial empire
for humanitarian causes is obvious from his will “The prize for peace was to be awarded to the
person who "shall have done the
most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or
reduction of standing armies and for the holding of peace congresses."
The prize was to be awarded "by a committee of five persons to be elected
by the Norwegian Storting."
Thus it is obvious that Nobel
Peace Award as envisioned by Nobel was a true noble effort with good intention
to demilitarize the world. But many times it
was awarded to people or organizations which were unrelated to peace making the
award counterproductive, even rewarding real war criminals in few occasions
while cleverly ignoring military occupations, dominations, and war crimes of
allied nations (an extension of Norway
- now NATO) since its inception. It may eeven have been contributing to the
advancement of Swiss-English-Nordic Cross which was obvious when
allied victory tried to change German flag
resembling Cross twice in
1919 and 1948. The very first prize was given to the founder of Red Cross (Flag of
England) and proponent of the Jewish State in Palestine
supported by then Monarchial Union. Thus behind all humanitarian
gestures Red
Cross (The English
Flag) can be seen as the allied military hospital in war zones to minimize
allied casualty! In other words formation of International Red Cross prepared the
world for endless wars for allied victory while establishing the symbol of crusades (Red
Cross) in otherwise non-violent regions of the planet.
The most important incident that happened
since Nobel’s death in 1896 was that Norway became Monarchy
tied to Demark and England in 1905
severing union with Sweden. The 2nd most important thing happened was that Dee Beer, the largest diamond
factory, originally founded in South Africa by British Colonialist Ceceil Rhodes, also became
the largest dynamite factory in the world beginning 1903. The 3rd
most important thing happened was that The United States of America ended its isolationism and joined imperialism
under Theodore Roosevelt.
The British Empire that ended with American Independence
needed a sophisticated way to rebuild worldwide empire! Thus it can be seen
that Norwegian King envisioned spread of British colonialism annexing the world
under The United Kingdom of Israel carefully manipulating
the Nobel peace prize along with Red Cross (Flag of England),
related missionary
NGOs and right
groups supervised from Vatican.
The very discriminative nature of the committee got exposed when they
voted down Mohandas
Gandhi who was nominated five times and the name made to the committee's
short list three times. In 1948 the committee awarded no prize; it indicated
that it had found "no suitable living candidate", a reference to
Gandhi. It thus seems likely that he would have been awarded the prize if
he had not been assassinated in January 1948. Still, the committee had had
earlier opportunities to honour the man who,
in hindsight, is generally seen as the leading spokesperson of non-violence in
the 20th century. Under the statutes then in force, Gandhi could have been
awarded even the 1948 prize, as seen by the posthumous prize awarded to
Hammarskjöld in 1961. Even the 1963 prize could have been awarded to Gandhi
instead of Red Cross (The
English Flag) celebrating 100 years since inception in Switzerland
(The main crusading flag).
Henry Kissinger, who orchestrated the worst chemical weapon
attacks in the villages of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia is an ideal example of the political side
of the award.
In 1973 the Nobel Peace Prize was
awarded to US National Security Adviser and Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger
and North Vietnamese leader and negotiator Le Duc Tho for
the 1973 Paris agreement intended
to bring about a cease-fire in the Vietnam War and a withdrawal of the American
forces. This award is definitely the most controversial one in the history of
the Nobel Peace Prize. Le Duc Tho declined the Peace
Prize, the only person to have done so, since there was still no peace
agreement. Kissinger did not come to Oslo
to receive the prize in person and soon indicated he wanted to return it, but
was told the statutes did not permit this; two of the committee members
resigned after it had become known that there had been disagreement and that
they had in fact been against the award. (They supported Brazilian archbishop
Helder Camara, who received a Norwegian people's prize instead.) Public
reaction to the prize, both in Norway
and internationally, was largely negative.
In 1978, Egyptian President Mohamed Anwar
al-Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin
were honoured for the Camp David Agreement, which brought about a negotiated peace
between Egypt
and Israel.
This agreement too, proved controversial. Only Begin came to Oslo
to receive the award. A technicality prevented the American president, Jimmy
Carter, from being the third Laureate; the committee actually wanted to include
him, but he had not been nominated when the deadline expired on February 1 of
that year.
In 1983, Lech Walesa, a polish
trade unionist, a devout Roman Catholic, was
awarded the Nobel peace prize which cannot be equated to contributions that
foster fraternity between nations and disarmament. It was a political prize
sending a clear blow to communism which eventually dismantled the Soviet Block
systems and helped NATO rise as a major military power reinvigorating the arms
race and new pre-emptive wars in the world.
In 1987 Oscar Arias Sánchez, Costa Rica's president, was
honored for his leadership in having the five presidents of Central America
sign a peace agreement for the area. This and 1978 awards could be seen as the
intervention of the Norwegian Nobel Committee in conflicts where progress
toward peace had definitely been made, but conflicts had been far from
resolved. Although Arias promoted the idea of Central American Parliament he managed
to keep Costa Rica out of it. Also his coming back to presidency in 2007 voiding
constitutional amendment that forbade presidential reelection meant not so
Noble!
Shimon Pares
In 1994, the Peace Prize was
awarded to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin
and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres
for the Oslo Agreement, which brought about a mutual recognition and a
framework for peace between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Israel.
The three politicians had accomplished much, but they were still far from
establishing a final peace between Israelis and Palestinians. The award
resulted in one member leaving the committee, the leading spokesman
in Norway for
the Likud party in Israel.
This was the third resignation in the history of the Norwegian Nobel Committee. To world citizens surprise peace prize
winner Peres joined
indicted war criminal Ariel Sharon for endless violence against the
Palestinians disrespecting the Oslo agreement!
Thus it is obvious that the committee is a good example of partisan politics to advance evangelical
(non-Semite Zionist) monarchial causes other than peace sometimes to divert
attention from real peace related global issues. This was most obvious when the
peace award went to reverred Mother Teresa for her evangelical humanitarian work diverting US military actions against
South Korean Democracy! As the world was celebrating Mother Teresa Carter
administration approved South Korean plans to use military troops against
pro-democracy demonstrations ten days before former General Chun Doo Hwan
seized control of the country in a May 17, 1980, military coup, according to
newly released U.S. government documents, to solidify US occupation of South
Korea. Now imagine that ex-president Jimmy Carter was awarded the 2002 peace
prize for humanitarian reason to divert
attention from 9/11 destruction, unknown detainees, and US
invasion and destruction of Afghanistan
without proof of conviction enacting
many war crimes per Geneva
Convention. The list can go on.
Nobel Peace Prize and Vatican’s Evangelical Ambition:
With Swiss-Cross, English-Cross, Nordic-Cross, Red-Cross playing
important role in the Nobel peace prize it won’t be out of context to analyze
whether Papal Cross
could gain grounds from the awarding of the peace prize, at least in few
occasions!
Ironically for the secular world
it would be seen that many of the peace prizes
were awarded to Catholic Bishops who were not directly related with any peace
activities but helped bringing in existing or newly formed countries under
Papal Constituency, e.g., Poland,
East Timor…..or avoid mass revolution and/or conversion
to Islam of non-Christian countries around the world. The peace prize award to Roman Catholic Bishop
of East Timor, Carlos Belo, can be seen as direct intervention
from Vatican since he was a product and member of the Salesian Society who was appointed as the head of the East Timor
Church against the choice of the Timorese priests. Within months of his
consecration as Bishop which made him directly responsible to Pope he started
campaigning for Independence
leading to violence which eventually facilitated presence of massive evangelical
Monarchial Australian Forces on the Island! To add more
Papal spices the Salesian
Society in agreement with Holy
See chose him to be the new crusader in Mozambique – a former
British colony as Rhodesia!
1946 prize to John R. Mott of Young Men’s
Christian Association (YMCA),
1947 prize to “Religious
Society of Friends”, 1952 prize to Albert
Schweitzer for “Reverence for Life” depicting a Jesus who expected the imminent end of the world, 1958 prize to
George Pire a Monk
from Pontifical
International College Angelicum in Rome of Holy See, are notable
mention. Even the 1964 prize to Southern
Baptist Christian minister Dr.
Martin Luther King, Jr. for American Civil Rights movement could be seen as
evangelical since the movement would be a moot point without Euro-American
Slavery Network; the prize definitely helped in suppressing the rise of Islamic
black leader MalcolmX
as African American Uniter!
The prize venerated many Gandhian Christian
activists including Bishop Desmond
Tutu, Baptist Minister Dr. King, Nelson Mandela, yet managed
to ignore the father of non-violence, Gandhi
a Hindu!
Thus it is obvious that in a
world full of heroes from all sects and religions Christian mission and
missionaries were always preferred by the Norwegian Nobel committee even when
the prize was awarded to few in the non-Christian parts of the world.
Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU): At the beginning, the peace
prizes were mostly shared among European allied nations awarding leading
personalities of the IPU eight Nobel
Peace Prizes confirming local nature of the fraternity and disarmament:
To summarize, Nobel Peace Committee is entirely Norwegian, under a
government which is Constitutional Monarch and part of expansionist NATO, an increasingly rich Northern state firmly
attached to the West and with strong sympathies for Israel! That is why many peace prizes seemed to be an effort to divert
US/NATO military atrocities after WWII defying their own War Crime laws set up
via Geneva Convention
and Nuremberg
Trial. Thus while the committee selected people for fighting hunger and
homeless ignored the countries and leaders who eradicated hunger and
homelessness like in Soviet Union, China
and Cuba! Not to mention most of the prizes were initially shared among the
League of Nations and its extension United Nations and NATO war helping hand
Red Cross (Flag of
England)! The 1990 peace prize went to Mikhail Gorbachev for dismantling guaranteed food, shelter, and education for
Soviet Block citizens bringing back chaos, uncertainty, discriminations, and
homelessness. Similarly 1989 peace prize
went to Dalai Lama who has no known contribution to any peace effort in any
part of the world except being a Western
Spokesperson for the Tibetans who have been enjoying much egalitarian life
under the Chinese system. The 2006 peace prize went to Mohammad
Yunus of Bangladesh for his contribution in economics in forming ‘Gramin
Bank – A Credit Source for the poor without collateral’ who should have been
given the 2006 economics prize. But surprizingly the 2006 prize
in economics went to Edmund
Phelps of Columbia University, a guardian for the beholder of Capitalism
that requires unemployments to sustain low inflation.
Thus if we analyze the
sequence of events surrounding the peace prize:
1. In 1863 Jean
Henry Dunant founded Red Cross (The Flag of England)
in Switzerland mainly to minimize Austrian military casualty; He also established
the Palestine Colonial Company to
assist Jews in making Aliyah (settling in Palestine). This is equivalent to
forming slave trading company to send Africans to work in the newly colonized
land
2. In the
same year, 1863, Alfred Nobel obtains the first patent on nitroglycerin (dynamite)
an industrial explosive
3. 1896 – Nobel signs will for
Nobel Prize in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Economics and Peace.
4. Theodor Herzl, Founder of Zionism
in 1897, an Austrian Jew born to a prosperous, emancipated Budapest
family, laid
down foundation for Anti-Semite
(against Semites – the old world) Activities:
“It is
essential that the sufferings of Jews. . . become worse. . . this will assist
in realization of our plans. . . I have an excellent idea. . . I shall induce
anti-Semites to liquidate Jewish wealth. . . The anti-Semites will assist us
thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews.
The anti-Semites shall be our best friends”. -- From Herzl's Diary
[Note: Whenever
Zionists mention “sufferings of the Jews” they mean everyone else as ancient
diasporic Hebrews (the old world) except themselves. Ancient Hebrew was a
culture, not a race, which can be traced
back to Harappan civilization]
5. 1898
- Birth of Yellow Journalism
in America that supports state terrorism to justy wars for global
invasions
6. 1898 – America
became imperialist embracing Internationalism
ending founding fathers vision of Isolationism. 1906 peace
prize to Spanish-American War General Theodore
Roosevelt was an indirect invitation to America
to join then imperial
alliance
which would be called later ‘League of nations’!
No one knows exactly what was going through Alfred Nobel’s mind when he was
signing his will in Swedish-Norwegian Club in Paris especially giving the Peace
Prize responsibilty to the Norwegian and not Sweden. But it certainly helped in
spreading colonialism and evangelism (zionist) illuding disarmament
while bringing world in firm grips of military industrial complex supervised by
the Constitutional Monrachs promoting their shadow foregn policies implemnted
through secretive-nonaccountable
powerful intelligence branches! The British-Nordic unconditional
monarchial support to US-Led ‘war on terror’ ignoring Rule-of-Law and
Proof-of-Conviction probably would have been the worst nightmare for Alfred
Nobel considering his vision of ‘Fraternity among nations and rewards for
disarmaments’!
Even in science awarding prizes to practical Physics, Chemistry and Biology
led researchers more towards military needs of advanced warefare eventually
leading to the Atomic Bombs and Biological Waepons. People still wonder why
there were no Nobel Prizes in Mathematics and Theoretical Sciences! The answer
may be that none of them help military activities directly although enlightening
for universal vision.
Now to top everything with some more colonial spices, Switzerland has the
same medieval crusading flag of England only inverted and its National Anthem still
sung in British tune ‘God saves the Queen’! It is the major country in the
world for secret bank deposits as well as house of most international
institutes like World Health Organization, United Nations, Red Cross. The International Court of
Justice is in Monarchial Hague, Netehrlands. And all Nordic countries share
the same crusading flag only in different colours as Nordic Cross. Thus it
can be concluded that the peace prize along with all the monarchial organizations
established from Developed
Monarchies are very well coordinated sophisticated efforts to perpetuate
monarchy expanding zionist colonialism in its modern form promoting evangelism
and anti-Semitism.
The best way to end this article is to quote Nobel
Laureate Poet Rabindra
Nath Tagore during his speech in USA
in 1920, “It was easier
for us to speak out against the British Empire in England than in America.”!
Now imagine that George Washington fought to end British colonialism in 1781 and Tagore’s
speech was just after World War I when 2.5 million new Zionists joined
America’s existing one million who
alreay thought America was
Zion. While George Washington's farewell address was a stern
warning against involvement in foreign wars, awarding of the 1906 peace
prize to bullyish
president Theodore Roosevelt dragged USA into WW I satisfying Royalist
agenda and beginning American colonialism & imperialism. Most people on earth love peace which is the
very basis of displaying everything best of human being through social and cultural evolution. But
prestigious Nobel peace prize often became the victim or tool of monarchial
ambition which is against egalitarian coexistence valuing universal basic human rights!
Tagore rejected
knighthood, a crusading title,
which the New York Mayor Rudolf Giliani proudly embraced as the forebearer for
the success of the 9/11
domestic disaster transfering World
Trade Center (WTC) ownership to Silverstein Properties and Westfield
America, Making New York City Emercency
Command Center on 23rd floor of 7 World Trade Center, assigning Securacom
(Stratesec)(KuwAm Corporation) operated by Bush family in charge of WTC security until 9/11, and overseeing
the slowest recovery process in the most advanced country.
Finally, to pay our best tribute of respect to the visionary will of Alfred
Nobel for “fraternity
between nations and disarmament
“ the peace prize should be administered from a country which is truly democratic voted by a world
body conatining peace
activists and leaders who are also truly dedicated to brokering peace among
nations using only diplomacy
and universal vision.
