My hope is for Greta not to win the peace prize. My bigger wish is for the peace prize to be abolished.

 

If the past can predict the future he will go on to be a terrible PM.

 

You got me him.
But he became more warlike after his Nobel prize. Libya, that is all his. Libya was wealthy now it is a basket case. He perfected using drones to kill people. Some moralists see that as being repugnant.

 

Some moralists see eating meat as being repugnant. What does that even mean? "Some moralists..." You can find "some moralists" who will say any number of things. It's meaningless. What even is a "moralist?" Someone with morals? Someone with an opinion about morals?

 

Correct.
The point that I was trying to make was that he became less peaceful after the Nobel prize. Debatable of course.

 

What is debatable is your clear suggestion that there is a cause and effect relationship between winning the Peace Prize and becoming more warlike.

There is no shortage of spurious correlation on DegreeInfo. I am honoured to be a part of this phenomenon or is it phenomena . Did you happened to see the one where an individual think he is a representative sample of all veterans? My guess you missed that one. From now on, I am calling myself the expert on black issues on DI, because I am black so that make me an expert on being black. It is silly but I am going with it.

 

That might be true. After all, people make mistakes, are sometimes misinformed, etc. Still, I would think it would be better to correct those mistakes rather than deliberately add to them.
