MRFF Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

This combined with the President’s medal, should go over like an athame at airport security.  From Military.com:  via MRFF Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize.

A redacted version of the Nobel Peace Prize nominating letter that recommended Weinstein is posted online but provides little information on the writer and does not identify the country of origin. The author states he is “the only Christian in [his country’s] Senate,” and so represents “an entire population that is disenfranchised and right-less.” The author says his country once was at war with the United States but is now an ally and “learned from the United States how best to defend and protect people’s most basic rights.”

“American soldiers were and are inspiration to us,” the author states. “Those same soldiers who stand for America need the MRFF to stand for their rights when theirs are under attack at home as the average American’s rights are under attack in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, and at the hands of Al-Queda [sic] and other terrorist organizations.”

The letter goes on to state that because of his efforts Weinstein and his family have had their lives threatened and their property defaced and damaged.

(now that just didn’t sound too christian at all to me)
