In a letter to the Nobel Committee on Tuesday, Representative Buddy Carter proposed Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump’s “extraordinary and historic role” in putting a stop to what some have dubbed the 12-Day War between Iran and Israel was commended in the letter.

The ceasefire Trump had declared was already breaking down as missiles continued to fly between the two nations while Carter typed out his glowing proposal. It calls into question broken truces and peace awards. Is it possible to receive a prize for putting an end to an ongoing war?

Israel launched a preemptive strike against Iran, which sparked the conflict. Israel asserted that Tehran was in imminent danger of obtaining nuclear weapons.

The two nations exchanged rocket fire for more than a week. The United States then joined. In what officials described as the greatest B-2 raid in U.S. history, they hit three nuclear installations in Iran.
