The list of nominees is quite fun.
Elon Musk was nominated by Branko Grims, a Slovenian politician who wants to send people back where they came from. He is nominated for "for his consistent commitment to the fundamental human right to freedom of expression, and thus to peace". That would be the freedom of expression that requires his constant censoring of his own AI Bot.
And then of course there is Donald Jessica Trump nominated by:-
- Anat Alon-Beck, a high flying American Jewish Professor of Law with close ties to Israel "for his extraordinary leadership, strategic brilliance, and unparalleled commitment to advancing peace and securing the release of hostages in one of the most complex geopolitical arenas of our time."
- Asim Munir, a Pakistani military officer that Trump had a bromance with "for his attempts to de-escalate the 2025 India-Pakistan conflict, seeking a resolution through dialogue and backchannel diplomacy, while emphasizing the principles of restraint, regional stability, and the prevention of armed escalation—despite India's stated refusal of third-party mediation and its insistence on bilateral engagement" and not for threatening Pakistan with huge tariffs.
- Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli dictator and genocideal warmonger "in recognition of his pursuit of peace and security in the Middle East and Trump’s role in brokering the Abraham Accords and the ceasefire and hostage releases in Gaza"
- Buddy Carter, a republican arse-licker for "his historic role in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran and preventing the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism, Iran, from obtaining a nuclear warhead"
- Hun Manet, Prime Minister of Cambodia for "for his crucial role in restoring peace and stability at the border between Thailand and Cambodia" and not at all for "reducing tariffs on Cambodia from 49% to 19%"
- Javier Milei, massively right wing President of Argentina for "for recognition of his extraordinary contribution to international peace" and not for giving Argentina $20bn to bail out their economy.
