Looks like even the Nobel Prize Committee can be managed...what a croc...more propoganda is all it is…

Thanks Obama for helping the economy, AH? Wait a minute the economy still STINKS!
Thanks Obama for looking out for the Troops, AH? Wait a minute you moved terrorists that plot to kill our people back to thier HOMELANDS!
Thanks Obama for winning the war on terror, AH!, wait a minute YOU DONT WANT US TO WIN!
Thanks Obama for showing concern on diplomacy, AH?, wait a minute ALL YOUR DOING IS TRAVELING AROUND THE WORLD WASTING THE TAX PAYERS MONEY!
What makes an organization think this man deserves a PEACE PRIZE! He has done NOTHING! except being the first black president of the U.S. It´s sad but true how the world pays more attention to a mans skin color instead of the deeds a LEADER IS SUPPOSE TO DO!

the best part is that the nomination was on feb 1, 11 days after office. too bad the actual list of nominations is kept secret for 50 years. snl got it right: he’s done nothing.

The Nobel Prize Committee BELIEVES that President Obama can assist our world in bringing peace.  Americans. . .can we PLEASE AGREE and embrace this vision. . . and stop all this verbal and physical fighting.

congrats Mr. Obama on the Olympics ... oooops

congrats Mr. Obama

John, I respectfully ask that you do the same thing you told randy to do, “Get your head out of the sand....”.
It would take many pages, even hours, if it is even possible, to summarize what it has taken many scholars, historians, and *learned* political analysts (not dime store pundits) to say, in order for you to understand what randy is saying (and what i, and many others, agree with). You, we, must take the time required to educate ourselves (and we will not get this education in schools) so that we can have a informed & fruitful conversations with our friends & neighbors, in order to develop a strategy (or join the already strong coalitions in our countries) to wake up and take back our power.
In a capitalist world, one way to do this is to be aware of what we purchase, who sacrificed what for us to have it, whether we’re buying it because the media (owned by corporations now) say that we need to have it, or whether we can grow or produce it locally, or do without it altogether. Other countries grow food to export to the USA and starve their own, because we demand to consume these things!
We (who consume 90% of the world’s products) can act in many ways to make clear political & social statements, and literally change the world in may ways, and one very powerful way is to change how and what we buy! That alone will speak loudly to corporate america to change its ways.  “Supply & Demand” can be played both ways.
We must first educate ourselves to what is behind all of this, rather than targeting others, engaging in another tactic - “Divide & Conquer” - used by those in power to keep our eyes off the real problem and from focusing on solutions, we have in our power to use, to change the course of history!
There’s so much more to say, but here is not the place to say it.

Your comments are partially correct and also foolish.  I would argue with you that the key to the opression to people is first related to money.  It is the last thing before people choose violence to change there dire fate.  “Let them eat cake” Marie Attionettes demonstarted that the the public was denied access to eat and therefore evoked violence.  Nazi’s in Germany rose to power as people were desperate and were exploited by people seeking and maintaining power.  Your nievete in that capitalism and corporations are the cause of current violence is foolish.  Offer one shred of evidence that corporations set out to kill for there own gain.  I would argue that individual liberty and freedom is denied for many people.  The only right we have upon our birth is liberty.  Government(s) will not solve our problems and I would argue “Government is the problem”, Reagan.  Get your head out of the sand and look in the mirrior to solve the problems of the world.  Do not rely on Government.  GOVERNMENT IS A SELF FULLFILLING ENTITIY OF INEFFICIANCIES AND ARE NOT HELD ACCOUNTABLE.  Free people can prosper and governments can opress peoples freedom.

i think that the documentary has a very noble couse. however there are two issues at the heart of the problem, as the un mediator pointed out. the perception of reality between the quarreling sides, and the more direct couse that affects conflicts worldwide, that of scarcity in resources. and thats where all movements to create or acheive peace go awry. or at least miss the subject. in order for conflicts to be resolved there must be a significant worldwide acknoledgment tha the social differences are a byproduct of economic hardship. it was the economic shift in latin america in the 70s and 80s that coused military juntas to kill rampantly. it was the economic distress of a continent as a whole that has made africa the hotbed of tribe conflicts, sometimes precipitating and dragging whole countries in civil unrest. even back in the creation of nazi germany it was the economic meltdown that gave hitler the ampple opportunity to rise in power. therefore, the fight for a day of peace should not start at the doorsteps of the UN building, but in the offices of multinational corporations. scarcity, aconomically speaking, is but a mere side effect of the free market capitalism ruling the earth.and it is no longer a leftist conspiracy. it is an undeniable fact. there are hundreds of reports from respected universities and decorated scholars attesting to this fact. oil scarcity is but a wall street bubble. food scarcity? with advancments in agriculture today, we can produce enough food to feed the world three times over. water? 75 percent of the earth is water.
therefore it is no longer in the hands of the un to stop violence for a day, but one should knock on the door of the gun companies and tell them to stop making weapons for a day. knock on the food companies and tell them to stop the privatization of public resources for one day. knock on the doors of a wall street firm and tell them to stop speculating the fate of millions of people.... for one day
