Obama: Pacifist?
 
I notice there is a petition going the rounds to get Barack Obamas Nobel Peace prize revoked. They seem to mainly be citing the US supplying weapons for the Israelis to kill and maim Palestinian children but there are plenty of other examples of Obamas warmongering tendencies. I wondered what those of you in the Middle East think about this man having the Nobel Peace Prize?

And, of course, the Palestinians are totally innocent of any bloodshed.

The Palestinians admitted today that they used schools from which to launch missiles into Israel in the recent round of madness. They admitted to making "mistakes". I consider that I've made a mistake if my socks don't match my shoes, or I conjugate the verb etre incorrectly. Taking the decision to launch missiles from a school packed with kids amounts to war crimes, and consequently any linkage of the US arming Israel to Obama's peace prize is disingenous.
