The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize goes to Nihon Hidankyo

The Japanese grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, also known as Hibakusha, receives the award “for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons and for demonstrating through witness testimony that nuclear weapons must never be used again”, said Jorgen Watne Frydnes, the head of the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
“In response to the atomic bomb attacks of August 1945, a global movement arose whose members have worked tirelessly to raise awareness about the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of using nuclear weapons,” he said.
“Gradually, a powerful international norm developed, stigmatising the use of nuclear weapons as morally unacceptable. This norm has been known as the nuclear taboo.”

It must be a tight race between Nethaniahu and Zelenski.

[@kentovewagenes1141]

They could have made a statement that International law is very important by giving the award to ICJ. I think that is more important in these days IMO ❤

Are you sure it's not Netanyahu?

It was but he couldnt make it. He too busy with the genocide!☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️💚

Orwellian "peace prize", awarded in the name of dynamite inventor; always has been a reliable predictor of an opposite it's awarded for. I'd say the likelihood of nukes being used got a lot higher now.

[@johnarvid]

Congratulations to Nihon Hidankyo!

[@TheFinalMeowntdown]

Cyril’s a sharp one. He has some great takes on lots of things, but the barb about focusing on nuclear weapons when genocides in plural are going on with conventional weapons should provoke a lot more thought than it probably will.

[@eycYang]

is Noble prize another hypocrite?

[@felipefeitosa6574]

Imagina, o prêmio é concedido por um país que fornece armamento para um país em guerra contra uma potência nuclear. Eles também abrigam bases militares de outra potência nuclear 😅

[@notenote2004]

Obama won one! 😂😂😂

No only Nuclear every weapon is inhuman. I don't think only a special category of weapon is dangerous to human.

[@marieanda8665]

A bunch of cowards.....that's nothing new for the Nobel Committee! So many brave and extraordinary people and organizations who have made huge sacrifices to alleviate the horrors of Gaza.....but they dare not offend Israel and the USA! What a great shame!

[@shareebauld5956]

Oh the irony on so many levels

[@niamotullah99]

It must be Nethaniahu or Zelenski. Or else it must be my prime minister Shekh Hasina
