The Nobel Prize foundation ...

The Nobel Prize foundation was found for the purpose of endowing and I quote: ." Prizes to those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit to mankind."

To this end I suggest that the foundation awards on a yearly basis a high Courage and Morality prize.

I nominate two (not necessarily in that order ) and motivate my reason for doing so:

1- Julian ASSANGE and
2- Edward Snowden.

Both have shown incredible courage in making public the shenanigans of politicians throughout the world.
They also point out to us how low the moral fibre of our leaders are.
Both must have known that in making public their findings their lives would become hell.
They are considered by governments as enemies of the State, if not the world.

Bribery and corruption creates every second thousand upon thousands of poor and destitute people throughout the world.
Hunger, thirst, simple housing and lack of education have no place in our "technological advanced" society.
What our society lacks is an advanced "moral society", like Jesus and Ghandi preached.

Will the Nobel Foundation take the courageous and moral step to encourage MORAL FIBRE?
