The Nobel Prize Committee announced today that Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed had won this year’s Peace Prize. The NY Times reported on the reasons for his win: Mr. Abiy, 43, broke through two decades of frozen conflict between his vast country, Africa’s second most populous, and Eritrea, its small and isolated neighbor. When he became prime minister of Ethiopia in 2018, he threw himself at a breakneck pace into reforms at home, and peace negotiations with the rebel-turned-dictator Isaias Afwerki, president of Eritrea…
In its official announcement, the Nobel Committee detailed a litany of accomplishments for Mr. Abiy in his first 100 days as prime minister:

She's so full of pee and vinegar (i.e. hate) that being nominated for a "peace" prize is more than she deserves.

Obnoxious twit being used by the left is automatically a “victim”. The left worships abortion and victim hood.

Brainwashed by her elders and put on a mission. Her script is written by others and she is no more than an ignorant tool of the left. She did not earn and does not deserve a Nobel prize for repeating talking points.

I rather feel sorry for this child. She has some obvious mental issues and has been totally brainwashed into this paralyzing fear of the mythical climate change apocalypse. Now she is a total tool of the Left and will be abandoned when she is no longer useful. Her parents are criminals.

They passed over the politically correct candidate for someone who actually accomplished good?
There might be hope.

I'm surprised that the Nobel Prize Committee hasn't established a prize for "Climate."

Fighting to extort money from America is apparently a good war.

Those leftists should give the prize to Little 0bie again.
In fact - - he should win it every year - - just because he's so Magnificent. They should rename it - - the Annual Little 0bie Fawning Leftist Craven Suckup Prize.

Ever since the Peace Prize was awarded to Obama for a big zero achievement the Prize is a blooming joke.
A mouthy brat ranting at the UN about climate change deserves the 'rubber ducky award' and a plastic trophy if you ask me.
The Noble Peace Prize is like the Oscar two big jokes of an award.

The " kid" is a 16 year old professional actress that for years has been subjected to mental abuse re global warming/climate change b.s. by her parents and outside forces. When the left has gotten all they can from her . she'll be discarded . The left uses whoever suits their sick agenda .

I watched a YouTube video of a press conference starring our gal Greta with other kids these climate fascists are grooming. She was asked a question and she was not able to answer it; she just stared blankly into space for several minutes before saying that she would let someone else take the question. The child to whom she passed it was also unable to answer it. I guess their handlers should ask that written questions be submitted before any future pressers.
This girl cannot think on her feet for very obvious reasons. Sadly these adult climate fascists realized her limitations and used them to manipulate her.
Seems the Nobel Prize committee chose someone who actually accomplished something.

Not that you'd bother to take a look but the rules say anyone can write a letter to the Nobel Peace prize committee and "nominate" anyone for the Peace Prize ... including yourself. The real "finalists" are kept secret and behind closed doors. Thus, Trump was also "nominated" by several conservative groups writing letters but it means nothing as the Prize committee makes it's own pick ... and it's usually someone who doesn't deserve it!

Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed is definitely more deserving of the Nobel Prize than Greta Thunberg.
Thunberg is, unfortunately, the product of Man-made Global Warming (now Climate Change) propaganda. Her actual knowledge of the subject is on a par with a village idiot. The same goes for those who think this deluded child deserves the Nobel Prize.

Eritrea and Ethiopia have been at bloody odds for many years; it's good to see some one finally stepping in an easing the tensions, or at last making the attempt. Nagging Great hasn't lived long enough to accomplish anything; there's nothing peaceful about her, with that killer look she gave president Trump at a presser. She's nothing more than an annoying and entitled little derriere cavity. It's comforting to see that the Nobel academy still has some sane members.

The Nobel "Peace Prize" lost any real meaning years ago, after being awarded to career terrorist Yasir Arafat, nothingburger President Barack Obama, and other "deserving" people and organizations.
This "prize" goes the way of other well-known "prizes" and "awards" that no longer have any meaning or value: Pulitzer, Oscars, etc.

The Nobel Committee made a Proper Choice. Greta is a Psychologically Impaired Minor being badly used by her father!

We need more prizes. They could create a Post Turtle or Peter Principle award but there would be so many nominees that it would be nearly impossible to choose a clear winner. She would easily be in the running.
Greta "snubbed" her school system by letting climate fanatics take priority and caused hundreds of other students to skip school also. Not that they would have learned anything useful during that period of absence.
