Oh, absolutely. Here's the peace prize for droppibg bombs, killing civilians, and making the world more violent. WTF was that. and Obama accepted it, because he has zero integrity.

Every US president would have accepted it, most heads of state of any country in the world throughout history would have accepted it.
