Now, it is time the former Nobel recipients, such as Wiesel and Peres, at the very least,
demonstrate their integrity and apply the exemplary standards they purportedly hold as lights
unto human civilization t
and protest , unequivocally, the entertainment committee's, or those responsible for the
choice of Yusef Islam. They must . Otherwise, the entire organization
is completely discredited, and their own awards will be a mark of
shame., a demarcation of the demise of the Free world, and all the Academy purports.
The choice of a terrorist supporter, the very opposite of Peace
and progress of the Human Community, makes a travesty out of the award.
This year's winner, to the best of my knowledge ,is a deserving individual.
This is an insult to him and every previous winner. We expect the highest
standards in every endeavor pursued in the Academy's name. All responsible must be fired,
regardless of any and all inconvenience. Not to do so, will designate the demise of the Nobel
Prizes once and for all. This situation must not stand. I hope, further investigation will be done by the New York Sun.
Thank you
