  • Question:-2011 Nobel Peace Prize awarded to three women?
    The 2011 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded Friday to Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Liberian peace activist Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman of Yemen for their work on women's rights.


    The Norwegian Nobel Committee honored the three women "for their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women's rights to full participation in peace-building work." The honorees are Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Liberian peace activist Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman of Yemen.

    Each is worth a web search. :)

  • Question:-Three women win the Nobel Peace Prize for the advacement of women's rights...?
    Do cons still think the Nobel Peace Prize is a worthless award? A couple of years ago, that's all you read on here, what a joke the Nobel was.

    The 10 million kronor ($1.5 million) award was split three ways between Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, women's rights activist Leymah Gbowee from the same African country and democracy activist Tawakkul Karman of Yemen — the first Arab woman to win the prize

    Answer:-The cons were never RIGHT to begin with about it being a "worthless" reward. It actually comes with a hefty check, so it damn sure is worth SOMETHING!

    They were just PO'ed because another democrat got one......and starting fake wars just doesnt cut the mustard.
