Peace President Snubbed By Nobel Prize Morons.

They called it a victory for peace. Cameras flashed, diplomats smiled, and somewhere in Oslo a well-fed audience applauded as the Nobel Committee handed its golden seal of approval to María Corina Machado — a woman who once begged foreign armies to invade her own country. The press wasted no time dressing it up as moral theater: “a brave champion of democracy,” they wrote, as if history itself hadn’t been watching. To those of us outside the imperial echo chamber, it was hard not to laugh. This was peace, apparently — the kind of peace that only comes from Washington’s gun barrel.
Machado has never been a peacemaker. Her whole political career has been a project in sabotage — coups dressed up as campaigns, riots branded as revolutions, and sanctions rebranded as humanitarian concern. She cheered when U.S. banks froze Venezuela’s oil money, and she openly called for “chaos in the streets” to bring down her own government. Now she stands before the world as a symbol of virtue, shaking hands with the same Western elites who armed dictators and starved nations. That’s not irony; that’s imperial logic. The same system that once crowned Henry Kissinger and Barack Obama as peacemakers now rewards a Venezuelan oligarch for helping to destroy her country. The Nobel Peace Prize, once meant to honor human decency, has become the empire’s annual self-congratulation ceremony.
