Where The Peace Prize Belongs: Joint Rescue Teams In Thailand

I'm nominating the joint-international rescue teams working in Thailand for the Nobel Peace Prize, with the award funds distributed to rescue workers who are risking so much to get the boys and their coach out of the cave. There is a lot of heroism--and ultimate sacrifice--going on over there. No world leader rises to this kind of service to others.

I suggest the Prize's honorary recipient be the late Petty Officer Saman Gunan, who lost consciousness on his way out of the Tham Luang cave complex, where he had been delivering air tanks.

The qualifications terms for the Nobel include this phrase for those who, "...shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses."  

It seems to me that "fraternity between nations" has been the inspiring and undimming beacon (or headlamp) during this grueling rescue operation, with Thais, Brits, Aussies, Americans, and others all coming together to save the boys.

It is an amazing operation, racing against time, weather, and oxygen, and the joint teams and all the support groups have been marvelous in their ingenuity and persistence to achieve something so selflessly. 

No world leader has offered any service to the world or to the betterment of human relations than the multinational teams now working in Thailand. It's a Prize deserving effort.
