The Nobel Peace Prize seems to recognize only liberal principles, argued Brewer Group CEO Jack Brewer on Saturday, reacting to the Black Lives Matter movement being nominated for the prestigious honor.
“You know, the Bible says that one day good will be bad and evil will be good. You look at that, look back, in 2009, Barack Obama received a Nobel Peace Prize and then dropped more than 100,000 bombs in the world. President Trump does not receive the Nobel Peace Prize after negotiating four of the most incredible Middle East peace deals in history, “Brewer told Fox & Friends.
Brewer questioned why the Black Lives Matter movement should receive the Nobel Peace Prize after riots hit cities during their protests last summer.
“Now, all of a sudden, you talk about the movement that is burning cities with more than 800 buildings in Minneapolis,” said Brewer.
BLACK LIFE MATTER MOVEMENT NAMED FOR THE NOBEL PEACE AWARD
A Norwegian lawmaker named the Black Lives Matter movement for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize for drawing attention to racial inequalities around the world, while rejecting the riots and violence committed in the name of the movement.
In his nomination documents, Norwegian parliamentarian Petter Eide said the movement forced nations to recognize racism and other injustices, The Guardian reported.
“I think one of the main challenges that we saw in America, but also in Europe and Asia, is the type of growing conflict based on inequality,” he wrote. “Black Lives Matter has become a very important worldwide movement to fight against racial injustice. They have had a major achievement in raising global awareness about racial injustice.
“They have made a major achievement in raising global awareness of racial injustice,” he added.

The nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize by the Black Lives Matter movement is “alarming”.
“It is very representative of what we are seeing in our society today. And it is good to be presented as bad and evil to be presented as good. We have to get some clarity in our society. And this is not the Nobel Peace Prize. It is more about liberalism. The only way you can qualify to be nominated for this award is to support liberal principles. And that’s sad. “
Although Black Lives Matter has marched and championed racial equality and social justice causes, it has been particularly outspoken about police brutality after deadly police encounters with black youth and men in recent years.
The movement started in 2013, after the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, who was shot by a neighborhood watchman, who was later acquitted. Martin was unarmed.
