Yossi Dagan, the head of the Samaria Regional Council, has initiated an international campaign calling for the Nobel Peace Prize to be awarded to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump for their decisive actions in halting the Iranian nuclear program.
The campaign comes after the dramatic actions by the US and Israel in destroying Iran’s nuclear weapons development facilities, and following Operations Rising Lion and Midnight Hammer, which led to the destruction of much of Iran's military and nuclear capabilities. Iran had posed a threat to the stability of the Middle East and the world, with a focus on Israel.
As part of the campaign, support signs will be placed in Israel, the US, and Europe with financial support from the Friends of Samaria in Israel and the US. One prominent location for the sign will be at the Trump Lookout at the Gutnik Center in Peduel, Samaria.
A few months ago, Dagan announced that the Israel Lookout in Peduel, Samaria, would be renamed after Donald Trump. President Trump himself shared this announcement on his personal social media page, Truth Social.
The signs will read in English: "Trump and Netanyahu: The Shomron nominates you for a Nobel Prize."
Dagan stated: "This is the only thing that can bring peace and create a new Middle East, but this time for real." He further stated: "Netanyahu is the head and the one responsible for the historic change that is taking place here - you, Trump and Netanyahu, are responsible for the dramatic shift in the power structure in the Middle East, which gives a real chance for peace in the region. We must appreciate their boldness and vision, which led to unprecedented cooperation and new hope in the Middle East, which is not based on surrender to terrorism and violence, but on shared interests. True peace, and the prevention of the serious threat that endangers world peace - Iran armed with nuclear weapons. All the nations of the region and the world support the daring actions of these great leaders, Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump. This must be acknowledged and appreciated."
