Jose Farias ,   Sao Paulo - Brasil   (07.07.10)
Salma What historic Balestine?
32. The Nobel Piss Prize is a major joke
Frank ,   Canada   (07.07.10)
33. Nobel Peace Prize
Truly Disgusted ,   Canada   (07.07.10)
And the United Nations, the biggest dispicable crime of the CENTURY. This is not a JOKE but a CRIME towards HUMANITY. John McCain and freinds is the only way to stop this abortion of muslim directives
34. Ben Laden will have it first
Frank ,   Canada   (07.07.10)
Abu Mazen has no chance, he is not bloodthirsty enough.
35. To win the nobel peace prize is easy
jason white ,   afula, israel   (07.07.10)
All you need to do is kill Israelis, sign treaties with killers of Israeli or be an anti Zionist. Holocaust denial looks good on the resume also.
36. Dr. Abbas Working on Second Thesis
Fatima ,   Palestine, Texas   (07.07.10)
Dr Abbas does not have time for direct negotiations with Israel because he is busy writing a second thesis, this one denying that there were 900.000 Jews living in the Arab world before Israel came into being, and that 600.000 of them came to Israel. The new thesis will further deligitimize Israel, deny its right to exist as a Jewish state, and thus bring its destruction and eternal peace in the Middle East nearer.
37. I vote give it to the 9/11 hijackers
zionist forever   (07.07.10)
Just look at all the peace that we now have in Iraq & Afghanistan as a result. They could take it to paradise to show off to their 72 virgins ... nothing is going to excite a virgin more than a man who has a nobel Prize.
38. At lease Arafat represented all his people, Abbas does not
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & New York   (07.07.10)
39. Nobel Peace Prize and Abu Mazan
steve gardner ,   jerusalem, israel   (07.07.10)
Yes he should be given the Peace Prize (sic) and it should be presented by another undeserving awardee, Barak Obama.
40. why not a nobel to Nasrallah too?
Daniela   (07.07.10)
why not? Bin Laden, Ahmadinejad, Erogan to everybody, for they "good effort" to recognize our right to exist in peace! They gave it to Arafat now they "deserve" it as well !
41. The mere fact that it can be campaigned for
Mea   (07.07.10)
demonstrates how worthless an honor it has become. Rachel Corrie was nominated. They don't have a category for blatant stupidity or she would have won hands down. The Peace Peace is as worthless as teats on a boar. So maybe it should got to him.
42. winners and losers
ben Ish   (07.07.10)
List one: Yasser Arafat Barak Obama Jimmy Carter Kofi Anan List two: - Mahatma Ghandi - John F. Kennedy - If JFK had listened to his staff, and followed policy, he would have sent planes into Cuba and triggered WW3. He went against everything except his gut feeling and is therefore personally, directly, and exclusively responsible for averting a global thermonuclear holocaust. - Richard Nixon - "Only Nixon could go to China." It was only due to his efforts that China is a member of the community today. If not for Nixon, Red China would be the 800lb Gorilla version of North Korea. Not that China is so great today, but imagine a leader like Kim Jong-Il running the show over there. You can thank Nixon for sparing us that little detail. - Unnamed Scientist in USSR: In 1985, a solitary man averted a massive ICBM retaliation against the US because he believed the incoming missile warnings were systems error, which they were. He was fired the next day for not launching a massive nuclear attack, and never worked again. You decide which list is winner and loser.
43. To: No. 36
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.08.10)
Really? Where he is planning to defend this "thesis?" The University of Tehran? Bir Zeit? LOL. He's an embarrassment. You're a joke.
44. Mistake in article
Y   (07.14.10)
Saeb Arikat has already proclaimed that Abbas did not agree to a land exchange or to let Israel keep the Western Wall.
