Peace Prize = Barking Moonbat

The other shoe dropped. I was initially pleased with the Norwegian selection for the Nobel Peace Prize (the Peace Prize is selected by Norway and is separate from the Swedish Prize committees). Wangari Maathai was awarded the prize: "for her contribution to sustainable development, democracy and peace" And then she goes and holds a press conference: bq. Nobel peace laureate claims HIV deliberately created Kenyan ecologist Wangari Maathai, the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize, today reiterated her claim that the AIDS virus was a deliberately created biological agent. So as an ecologist, she is now a trained scientist? bq. "Some say that AIDS came from the monkeys, and I doubt that because we have been living with monkeys (since) time immemorial, others say it was a curse from God, but I say it cannot be that. bq. "Us black people are dying more than any other people in this planet," Ms Maathai told a press conference in Nairobi a day after winning the prize for her work in human rights and reversing deforestation across Africa. So start condom use and get the black males to start using them. This is simple off-the-shelf technology that is proven to greatly retard the spread. Wanna die a slow and horrible death, have unprotected sex with anonymous partners - simple as that. If you are married, stop your partner from having unprotected sex with other people. If he (or she) does, stop having sex with them until they are tested and tested again a month or two later. This is a simple matter of life or death. Her commentary goes downhill such that a five-year-old could Fisk it. Sad really but what do you expect from the same crew who elected Carter and Arafat. Posted by DaveH at October 13, 2004 12:19 AM
