Obama Accepts Nobel Peace Prize
President Obama accepted the Nobel Peace Prize today. In his speech he explained the irony of getting the Nobel Peace Prize and being in the middle of two different wars. President Obama explains,
“I face the world as it is, and cannot stand idle in the face of threats to the American people,” Obama said. “For make no mistake: Evil does exist in the world. A nonviolent movement could not have halted Hitler’s armies. Negotiations cannot convince Al Qaeda’s leaders to lay down their arms. To say that force is sometimes necessary is not a call to cynicism – it is a recognition of history; the imperfections of man and the limits of reason.”
