#1 The precedent for Awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to communist dictators has already been established. I don't see a problem with the idea.

#2 This years Nobel Peace prize is earmarked for a Transgender; Putin does not have a chance.

#4 And here I thought he was up for the Nobel Prize in Medicine for ending the Covid Pan-epidemic. Cause I'm not hearing the daily panic on that front anymore.

#6 Reminds me of this:
Shecky Greene:

"Frank Sinatra? Heck of a guy - real prince. Saved my life once. We were doing a show at the Sands, and between sets, I took a break in the parking lot. Next thing I know, three guys are working me over real good. Then I hear Frank say, 'OK, boys, that's enough.'"

#7 Except he doesn't want a prize. He will settle for only Zelensky's life and his own figurehead in Kiev.

Actually that's an easier thing to give him. Strategically too it would be a good chess move. Putin will be stressed for years controlling the rebellions and guerrilla fighting in the region. And countries wishing to jump into the by now floating NATO umbrella would be dissuaded. Best part, Soros and company would be denied this perverse game of gō in this lifetime.
