Will Trump get the Nobel peace prize if this deal comes off?

It’s apparently something he really wants. Do you think he will get it if he has got a lasting peace deal between Israel and Hamas?

Probably

I don’t think he is worthy of receiving it

but peace in the area is more important than getting annoyed at someone with a ridiculously over inflated ego gaining an over inflated recognition

lljkk · 09/10/2025 22:17

how soon would we know if the deal was successful?
Tomorrow is definitely too early.

My guess is Israel-Gaza situation will reignite (=Israeli soldiers on the ground & Israelis targetting Hamas people physically present in Gaza strip with artillery) within 18months... maybe within 18 days. I submit that if the deal 'fails' within 18days, definitely not a deal worthy of Peace Prize. I doubt 18m duration is good enough, too.

He's very good at foreign policy. I'll give him that.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/10/2025 22:19

I really hope he doesn’t. It would make a mockery of the whole thing. The man is as peaceful as a rabid Rottweiler.

How? By sucking up to Putin, bullying Zelenskyy, having nice dinners with Netanyahu and lying about wars that he’s allegedly stopped?

weareallqueens · 09/10/2025 22:22

I don’t think he’s worthy of it but I don’t think they can not give it to him if he ends this. It’s not like he’d be the first unworthy winner.

Yeah, that wall he built to keep out the Mexicans went really well.

LizzieSiddal · 09/10/2025 22:24

It’s far too early to predict if there is peace in the middle east. This is phase one of a peace deal. Fingers and everything crossed that there is long term peace but who the heck knows?!

India-Pakistan.

Zelensky has taken billions of dollars worth of money and equipment from the US, Trump's allowed to have a say. Ukraine don't have a path to victory at all. It's been a waste of money.

Now we have a peace deal for Israel and Gaza.

That's not foreign policy. Currently ICE are doing a very good job on the southern border and deporting criminal illegals in the states

MoFadaCromulent · 09/10/2025 22:26

Do you get credit for stopping a genocide you've been aiding and abetting?

(And Israel will definitely keep the peace once the hostages have been returned, they're just using up the last of their ammunition tonight because they don't want to be wasteful)

maudelovesharold · 09/10/2025 22:28

I’m afraid I’d be amazed (and delighted) if this were to be the start of a lasting peace. There needs to be a two-state solution for that to be a real possibility and that’s the last thing on earth that Netanyahu and the far right in Israel will ever agree to.

Pebbles16 · 09/10/2025 22:29

Just give it to him to get him out of the meddling.
He is not interested in peace just self-promotion.
Let's be ready to swallow down bile.
Likely that Israel will break the deal. As Trump supporters have said (sickeningly) they have the demolition done and apparently this is his vision

I dont care what prize anyone gets.

If he secures an end to the genocide and the return of the hostages, he deserves a bloody medal.

Sunseeker22 · 09/10/2025 22:29

No is the answer . And it won’t be peace for even 5 minutes.

A peace deal being spoken of doesn’t necessarily mean peace. Netanyahu doesn’t want peace imo. It’ll all crash in just a few days, I think.

Hooohd · 09/10/2025 22:31

We'll all have to wait and see

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/10/2025 22:32

And I understand that India have said Trump is talking bollocks when he claims to have brokered peace.

nam3c4ang3 · 09/10/2025 22:34

If he pulls it off? Yes - he’ll get it.

Woah woah woah... Trump is many things but he is not a liar.

He's a rapist, a racist, a thin skinned snowflake, an anti free speech activist, a liar, a draft dodger but he is not a pornstar.

Thedogscollar · 09/10/2025 22:38

No he most definitely shouldn't.
He hasn't addressed the root cause of the wars between Israel and Palestine and there is no guarantee that this peace plan will last.
Surely the reason for receiving the Nobel Peace Prize is that the peace has been sustained between both sides.
It's far too early for this.

He deserves nothing.

MidnightPatrol · 09/10/2025 22:41

I think he’s prematurely claiming to have permanently resolved the situation in Gaza / Israel, given it’s been going on for the best part of probably 80 years.

CameForAVacationStayedForTheRevolution · 09/10/2025 22:41

I think so.

Edited

A bit like how Hamas tried kidnapping more soldiers yesterday while simultaneously negotiating a hostage release deal? Stop pretending it's all one-sided.

And with regards to Trump, I absolutely despise him and think that all this does is prove that if he'd wanted to, he could have made it happen several months ago. He just didn't care enough. But still, I'd rather him win it a million times over than Greta Thunberg 😏

Also the last thing Hamas want. People on here seem to forget that on a regular basis, despite numerous reminders. It's almost like people are pushing some sort of agenda.
