So, here’s something that actually happened on July 7, 2025, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. Yep. That Nobel. The one meant to recognize people who’ve contributed meaningfully to peace and human dignity.
And who delivers the nomination? Netanyahu himself a man who’s been at the center of military campaigns, deadly airstrikes on Gaza, and decades of a brutal occupation of Palestine. I mean… seriously?

It’s almost too ironic to be real.
Let’s give Trump some credit where it’s due: he did help broker the Abraham Accords. Sure, they brought Israel and a few Arab countries closer diplomatically. But peace? A real peace? Not for the Palestinians. The people who’ve lived under occupation, blockades, and bombardment for over 75 years are still suffering. The core issue the illegal occupation of Palestine hasn’t moved an inch.
So, when Netanyahu publicly hands over a Peace Prize nomination to Trump in front of cameras, it’s more than just political theater. It feels like a gut punch to justice. A man whose own hands are far from clean in any conversation about peace, nominating another man whose peace legacy is… well, debatable at best.
And that’s why so many people around the world are rolling their eyes or worse. One viral comment summed it up perfectly:
Netanyahu nominate Trump to achive Peace Nobel Prize in front of reporters, praising his role in supporting peace initiatives, The world could nominate Netanyahu to achieve Destruction Nobel Prize remembering his role in Genocide initiatives in Gaza and illegal occupation of Palestine.”
Let’s be real this isn’t just about awards or recognition. It’s about what message we send to the world. If war criminals and occupiers can throw around Nobel nominations like party favors, where does that leave the people still living under drones, checkpoints, and rubble?
Some might say, "Relax, it’s just a nomination." But it’s more than that. It’s symbolic. It’s tone-deaf. A\nd to many, it’s an insult to the memory of those killed, displaced, or silenced by policies both Trump and Netanyahu have backed
It’s 2025, and the world is still watching Gaza burn. Still watching settlements expand. Still hearing stories of Palestinian children buried under the weight of this so-called “peace.”
So yeah Irony or insult?
You decide. But as for me, I’m not buying the show.
And I know I’m not alone.
