Russian President Vladimir Putin was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by an advocacy group that credits him with bringing about a peaceful resolution to the Syrian-U.S. dispute over chemical weapons.
The Russian advocacy group International Academy of Spiritual Unity and Cooperation of Peoples of the World nominated Mr. Putin, characterizing his forged agreement with Syrian President Bashar Assad — to turn over admitted chemical weapons cache to international authorities — a world-class and prize-worthy piece of diplomacy, United Press International reported.
The group also took a dig at the United States.
While announcing the nomination during a press conference in Moscow, group officials said Mr. Putin deserved the Peace Prize much more than President Obama, who won the recognition in 2009.....snip~

Can you believe this? How truly they have made the Nobel Peace prize into nothing but a hollow trophy. Does anyone think Putin deserves this award or to be Nominated for it?

End the Civil War with some concessions to the pro-democracy faction and we'll talk.

Ah yes, I too believe we should reward Putin's noble effort to protect his buddy Assad and to continue profiting by selling Assad weapons so that he can continue to slaughter the Syrian people. Putin is truly a great man.
Maybe they'll just give it to Obama again.
Hitler got nominated for it in 1939. I'm pretty sure Putin isn't the worse nominee.
Anyway. There are 250+ nominations already.
Russian authorities turned their informal descriptions of Greenpeace activists as pirates into legal charges Wednesday, the latest escalation in a saga that began two weeks ago as a protest against drilling in the Arctic.
Prosecutors charged 14 people — including a British journalist — with piracy, which carries a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison. An additional 16 await formal charges. All 30 had been ordered detained for two months while the investigation proceeds.
Morning MMC:2wave:I think it would be fitting for Obama's prize be given
to Putin since Barry didn"t deserve his.:twocents:
Mornin' Penn.....Now if Assad makes it another year. "What", he will be next Right?
He'll be in good company - right up there with Arafat.
Wouldn't surprise me a bit.The leftists are getting weirder every day!!:2razz:
The shirt business is irritating. It's not like the guy is built, or anything. I'm thinking the other kids must have kicked old Putey around when he was a little KGB tyke.Let's hope the Nobel peace prize can be hammered into a golden medal..so he can wear it the next time he goes horse riding without a shirt..:roll:

They all like him now. Otherwise he'll have 'em killed. Soup? Anyone?I think he needs a chest hairpiece...and a Cossack's hat personally...
He looks like the guy no-one chose to be in their team!!
I agree, when it comes to our compassion for Syrian casualties it's very important that we keep our criticism focused solely on the Syrian rebels while giving Assad and Putin a complete free pass.Course they don't want to harp to much about the Rebels/Terrorists that are out slaughtering innocent people.....who aren't even helping Assad.

Whereas Obama seems to have encountered a lot of bones laying all around that red line. It's what we like to call the president's decisiveness. Obama really knew from the start that he wouldn't do what he said he would. We like to call that leadership. Decisive leadership.Of course they all like him..he has potentially diffused WW3..By stating that he will feel obliged to protect his ally..Syria...
He made no bones about it..
Quick West..change of underpants time!!
Mornin RM. :2wave: Yeah.....that's True. Still just over Syria. I mean cmon.....they should have had a list or something. Not just for Syria. As nothing is resolved there yet.
