The UAE has long sought to be part of "the west." They have always been the most liberal, moderate, and western Arab nation in culture and practice. This isn't a surprise nor is it a stretch. An agreement between UAE and Israel has been a long time coming.

This O'Brien person is just a mouthpiece yakking about Trump and the Noble Peace Prize in the same sentence because Trump is jealous that President Obama has one, as does VP Al Gore and President Jimmy Carter.

I can guarantee that the Noble Prize Committee in Norway would rather stick pins in their eyeballs than give this asshole the Noble Peace Prize.

Another obsequious ass licker!

Give him for his role in the death of 170,000+ Americans and the reality of almost 5.5 million more infected with said virus.


Shameless and desperate do not quite describe these monsters.

This is an attempt to heal Trump's bruised ego.

Nobel Prize?

Hahahaha! This makes as much sense as putting Trump's ugly mug on Rushmore.

WILL NEVER HAPPEN!

Let's get real . . . Dump only wants this because President Obama was a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

His jealousy of PBO eats him alive, all day, every day.
