That is not true for the Nobel Prize in Economics, which is not one of the five official Nobel Prizes.

The Swedish government and the Swedish academy are notoriously myopic/tone deaf when it comes to these issues.
Sorry about that, I mistook you for someone else. The Royal Academy of Sciences doesn't administer the Nobel Prize for Economics, which isn't one of the five official Nobel Prizes and thus overseen by a complex mix of the Swedish government--including the Academy of Sciences--and the Sveringes Riksbank.
Oh boy, ethnic prejudice: my own academic researched focused on borders and migration in colonial and post-colonial states and I taught US and World History on both the high school and college level. Race, racism, the Atlantic Slave Trade, and colonialism/post-colonialism pervade all of those subjects and were constants throughout my curriculum.
I suspect that post election we'll see a renewed push into Gaza and the West Bank. This feels a lot like Reagan and the Iran Hostage Crisis.
I'd bet money I don't have that "halted" means "delayed until after the US election". But that's the cynic in me . . .
I will bear all of that in mind. Have a good one. May the Force be with you.
He's already invaded Lebanon. I suspect Rafah's only been spared so they can focus on that.

I think that comment was aimed more at the Nobel Prize in Economics committee--administered and funded by Sweden's Riksbank--but your point does stand.
I get what you're saying but I'll point out he has our near-unquestioning support now.
I think you've hit it on the head, in that it will be a question of how openly the next administration enables the horrors perpetuated by the Israeli government. What a time to be alive!
