I was just checking which were the top guesses on polymarket before the announcement and this winner was not even a choice on there. At least we know there's no insider trading at the Nobel foundation.
> In accordance with Nobel's will, the prize is selected by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, a five-member committee appointed by the Parliament of Norway unlike all the other awards chosen by the Swedish Nobel Committee.
It was a one sided report that went into abuses allegedly committed by the IDF. This same committee refused to look at any evidence of war crimes by Hamas or by Russia in Ukraine during the same period.
Reminder that the US administration is on a campaign to dismantle the ICC for echoing similar findings to this Nobel Prize winner in her role at UNHRC [1].
I'm extremely grateful to, and humbled by, these people continuing their brave work knowing they will face the full wrath of the US and Israel govs and their campaigns to dismantle accountability for the worst crimes.
It is, like many things, how much meaning you attach to it yourself. Apparently Donald T. thinks it's very important, he makes a lot of fuss about it.
Anyway, the NPP is one of the things that tries to push humanity on a broad scale in a better direction, and I'm grateful for that. It is important to at least speak out about injustice, and to celebrate those who do so, otherwise those injustices are never going to be fixed (I'm not even talking about punishing, although that should be done).

There's been accusations of leaks in connection to bets with the Nobel Price in Literature.

Because it's so insanely offensive to the point of absurd.
Can you explain why this choice is offensive to you?
She helped write a report that swepped under the rug what Hamas did on 10/7 by deliberately ommiting their crimes from the UN report.
It's neither her nor your business to condemn an occupied nation for how it fights its occupant.
I wholeheartedly support your point.
All international oversight should be removed and Hamas and Israel could go at it as long and as hard as they wish.

What was the report about?
It was a one sided report that went into abuses allegedly committed by the IDF. This same committee refused to look at any evidence of war crimes by Hamas or by Russia in Ukraine during the same period.
What's the name of the committee? I need to check it myself

Great to see that they're not afraid to stand up to the rising authoritarianism

Disgusting people rewarding war criminals. I see the Norwegians haven't changed since WW2
You mean war criminals like Netanyahu?
Get out of the Israeli bubble please...
So now if you disagree your in a bubble? That would then mean your in Palestine bubble right?
No, being in a bubble means being disconnected from the broader reality.
Nobel Peace Prize is meaningless, people don't care about actual genocides why would they care about genocide+ (including rape)?
It's like having your house on fire but patting yourself on the back for fixing a lamp.
