President Trump: Release Marwan Barghouti to Win Nobel Peace Prize
You still believe you deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, don't you? Despite your provocative rhetoric on Venezuela and threats against Palestinian demonstrators in US cities. But there's a simple solution that might guarantee you the hallowed award by 2026.
Free Benjamin Netanyahu's prisoner, Marwan Barghouti, who has been languishing behind Israeli bars for five cumulative life sentences for the murders of five Israeli civilians during the second Intifada. A fair trial was never his guarantee.
Barghouti is the "Palestinian Mandela" - a leader widely supported across the Palestinian spectrum and among world leaders like Ron Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, who views him as a crucial key to achieving a lasting two-state solution. Even Israel's former head of intelligence, Ami Ayalon, believes Barghouti is "the only leader who can lead Palestinians to a state alongside Israel".
A Nobel Prize for you would be no small thing if the Palestinian people were able to celebrate a breakthrough in peace talks, with Barghouti at their helm. The world's most important prisoner could finally be free.
But time is running out for Barghouti. He was beaten by Israeli prison guards last month and has been subjected to threats inside his cell from Israel's far-right national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir.
If you want a lasting peace deal in the Middle East, Marwan Barghouti may be your only hope. Pick up the phone, Mr President. Tell Bibi to release Barghouti. Then maybe get ready for that call from Norway.

. newsflash trump: u can't buy peace with Nobel Prizes and prisoner releases alone. u need real, tangible actions, not just some PR stunt to get u some awards.
. And let's be real, Marwan Barghouti might be a popular leader among Palestinians, but he's still got some major baggage - 5 life sentences for murder don't just magically disappear. You're not exactly known for your nuance or critical thinking skills, so I'm guessing you'll just pretend it's all okay and then what? 
, can't he see his own reputation is gonna take a hit if he's seen as someone who cares more about the nobel prize than actual progress? 
i mean trump is all about freedom and justice but he's not doing anything 4 ppl like Barghouti who r sufferin behind bars 
like wut? benjamin netanyahu's prisoner? come on! Barghouti is like the palestinian mandela lol he's got world leaders on his side 
andrael ayalon thinks he's the key 2 peace in the middle east 
so yeah u gotta pick up that phone & tell bibi 2 release barghouti ASAP! that'd b like, totally awesome 
It would be, like, totally a game changer for the Middle East, right? 
And think about all the people who care about peace and want to see Israel and Palestine living in harmony... this could be it! 
- just swap one prisoner for the Nobel Prize, easy peasy! But seriously though, releasing Marwan Barghutti could be a game-changer in the Middle East peace talks... I guess it's better than having to deal with those crazy far-right Israel politicians 
. Now if only Trump can keep his promise and not tweet about Barghutti's release... fingers crossed!
. And let's be real, Trump hasn't exactly had a track record of promoting peaceful resolutions in the Middle East... but hey, at least it'll make for some drama 
!
. And let's be real, if Trump wants a Nobel Prize, he needs to show some actual leadership skills, not just give empty promises 
i can only imagine how tough it must be for him to be a symbol of hope for the palestinian people and yet still face such brutal treatment from israel. as for president trump, well... i think we all know where his track record is when it comes to dealing with conflict 
but if releasing barghouti really could lead to a lasting peace deal, then yeah, that's something to consider 
. As someone who's lived through a lot of change in my lifetime, I can tell you that there's no easy fix for conflicts like the Israeli-Palestinian issue. It takes a lot of guts to admit when we don't have all the answers and are willing to listen to different perspectives 
.
. The thing is, releasing him won't magically solve everything – it'll just be one step towards a bigger conversation 
. But seriously, if Barghouti's release can lead to some real progress in the region, then that's something worth cheering on 
.
. Can't say I blame him for wanting some freedom after that.
According to Amnesty Int'l, Israel's prison system is riddled with human rights abuses... like a 97% rec rate of prisoners getting injured while in custody 
. Meanwhile, Barghouti has been behind bars for over 17 years, without a fair trial... that's over 3 times longer than the average sentence in the US 
! 
Norway has already offered to host the ceremony 
. Let's get this done ASAP, stat!
