I don’t see how a man who stole government secrets, fled to a communist country and is disclosing those secrets to the world on a regular basis, a man who by his own actions have caused multiple nations to look at the United States Government with skepticism and in some cases, more hatred than before, could be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, but according to two Norwegian politicians, Edward Snowden fits the profile of someone bringing peace to the world.
According to the Norwegian politicians Baard Vegar Solhjell, and Snorre Valen, Snowden’s actions had “contributed to a more stable and peaceful world order.”
Of course, a nomination does not automatically mean that Edward Snowden is the winner, but it has put his name in the category of greatness, of someone who has done wonders for humanity.
I beg to differ.
