Palestinian arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti of Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction has been submitted as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Fatah spokesperson Fayez Abu Aita announced Barghouti's name was submitted for the Nobel Peace Prize by Adolfo Perez Esquivel of Argentina, who won the Nobel Prize back in 1980 for his human rights work.
"This is a victory for the struggle of our people and an expression of the deep faith in the justice of the Palestinian issue and the legitimacy of the international Palestinian struggle to return the rights of our people," said Abu Aita.
The Fatah spokesperson praised the "great" role that "the warrior" Barghouti played along with other jailed Palestinian terrorists, calling on the international community to demand their release from Israeli prisons.
Barghouti was sentenced to five life sentences in 2002 after being convicted of multiple murder and attempted murder charges for attacks carried out by Fatah's Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades on Israeli civilians and soldiers during the Second Intifada.
He is considered one of the founders of "Tanzim," one of Fatah's armed terrorist factions, and has continued to exert great influence within the party even from prison. Likewise he has been visited by Arab MKs, and has sought presidency of the PA from jail.
Regarding the Nobel Peace Prize, recent candidates were US Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif for their work forming the controversial nuclear deal - which reportedly has already sparked a regional nuclear race. Kerry and Zarif ended up being snubbed by the prize committee.

Oh come on, you know they give Nobel Peace Prizes to just about anybody nowadays.
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. They make it there business to search the bottom of every barrel, beneath every rock and rotten log, until they find either the most odious murderer, the biggest liar, or the most damaging diplomat to award the prize to.
They gave it to soetoro too, which means it worth mucha
mierda.
They had no idea he would cause so much upheaval and damage, or tell such woppers, but they recognized his potential. His prize is well earned, despite the premature nature of its timing.
Not to mention boucoup merd and a sach drek. What’s the Esperanto term? Let’s stick with the international spirit of the award.

Usually of late the prize is only awarded to murderers. Arabfat won it, so why not another killer?
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

I hope he wins...That’ll put him right up there with Obama...
Usually of late the prize is only awarded to murderers of Jews. Arafart won it, so why not another Jew killer?
Much more deserving than Obama. That loser’s not even a mass murderer...yet, although refusing to help Middle Eastern Christians is a good start.
Good point...They may however want to consider changing the name...
What? Sounds too Italian? I’m sure next year they’ll give a posthumous prize to John Gotti.
Oh, you mean the name of the prize? What should we call it instead? The Nobel Sociopathy Prize?
That’ll work...
Yeh. The P makes it alliterate properly. It’s truth in labeling. What’s not to like?
