To accept the Nobel Peace Prize. He is only one of three sitting U. S. presidents to have received it, and the only one who went to Norway to receive it. It’s not surprising, since he loves any big event where he is the center of attention. Some object, since he just sent a lot of troops to Afghanistan, which misses the point altogether. Sometimes you have to fight in order to have peace (and Obama told them that, whether or not they believe it). Japan would not be our friend today if we had not defeated them in war when they attacked us. The same is true of the Islamic terrorists. We MUST defeat them in order to be at peace. A bully MUST be defeated. He must be convinced he cannot beat us or he will keep trying, and then we must keep fighting. If he is defeated and cannot attack us, THEN we have peace. Obama SAYS he doesn’t want to win in Afghanistan, but that’s a typical Obama lie: we MUST win in Afghanistan if we are to have peace—and that’s why he sent 30,000 more troops there. Not to “make war,” but to “make peace.” If he knows how. (
