Like the committee didn’t see this coming. The guy changed the name from the Dept of DEFENSE, to the Dept of WAR. You don’t think the Nobel Committee doesn’t understand what that signals? They tend to be pretty smart people, but dummies like MAGA don’t recognize intelligence. It’s an entirely foreign concept to them. So he thought he was getting something over on them, getting the Peace Prize, then attacking everybody, so he could hide behind his Peace Prize, saying it’s THEIR fault, I didn’t start it, I have a Peace Prize. And his idiot followers would actually parrot that, just like they are parroting that Iran started this war 47 years ago.
The Pax Romana (Latin for ‘Roman peace’)
is a roughly 200-year-long period of ancient Rome that is identified as a golden age of increased and sustained Roman imperialism
And in any case, e.g. NATO’s prevention of the genocide was not “defense”. Was that also like "fucking for Virginity”? I have met some people from Kosovo, and they certainly do not think so, naming their children after Bill Clinton and all… No, Carlin is an idiot here.
So… about that Peace Prize…

“Fighting for Peace is like fucking for Virginity.” - George Carlin
Which is a really stupid thing to say. Should e.g. Ukraine not fight for peace? Should Britain not have fought for peace in WW2?
defense, that’s not what the US is doing.
Carlin’s quote said nothing about “defense”.

If Carlin had to be as specific as you’d like that quote to be then it wouldn’t be much of a joke.
It’s not hard to understand what he was saying.
I mean, Rome had peace. War elsewhere isn’t really an issue for the elites that do the writing of history…
