This person has always been suspect in my mind since she was honored years ago.

Her ‘peace’ activism is as phony as those of other leftists who wanted ‘peace’ in Vietnam and carried their communist flags with them 40 years ago.

She was just an IRA sympathizer pretending to want peace in my opinion back then and her support of Hamas only confirms that in my mind.

Holy Crap! That old cow from Northern Ireland is still at it.

In 1976 her sister Anne’s three kids were run over by an IRA terrorist who was shot dead by the British Army while attempting a getaway. She and an eyewitness, one Betty Williams founded “Women for Peace”, referred to locally as “the Peace People”.

They led a few marches, got the Nobel Peace Prize and were big news for about a year or so. The “peace people” quickly vanished from history but Corrigan went on to become a perennial player on the international peacenik circuit. A reliable hardcore leftist in all things, she eventually found best living was to be made as an anti-zionist activist.

Back home, she has long been considered a joke. If she’s remembered at all. Consider her Cindy Sheehan 1.0.

What else can you expect from a Nobel Laureate? If Atilla the Hun were alive today, he’d be right on the short list, along with Genghis Khan, Hitler, The Grand Mufti, Pol Pot and Fidel Castro. The prize is awarded to the most undeserving of the title. It’s a bad joke, Nobel Peace Prize. Awarded by the Nobel family, makers of dynamite.
