‘Nobel Prize is Racist’
An Iraqi researcher living in Europe says the Nobel Prize is racist. Interviewed on the pan-Arab satellite TV station Al-Jazeera, Samir Ubeid said the prize stems from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an anti-Semitic book that describes a Jewish conspiracy to control the world.
“Why has the prize been awarded to 167 Jews and only 4 Arabs?” said Ubeid. “Only four out of 380 million Arabs—and all four are traitors! If you are a traitor to your country, and a heretic who curses the Prophet [Mohammed], you deserve a Nobel Prize.” Ubeid said one of the “traitors” was the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, who signed the Camp David Accords with Israel. Another was Egyptian Mohammad ElBaradei, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). “In this case,” Ubeid said, the prize “is soaked in the blood of the Iraqi people and children.”
Interviewer: “Scientific creativity occurs in freedom and democracy, brother.”
Ubeid: “Democracy does not explain how it was awarded to 167 Jews, from among 15 million scattered around the world, while abandoning 1.5 billion Chinese, a billion Indians and 380 million Arabs. This is racism."
