An Iranian refugee who has spoken out against the brutal regime in Tehran is praising President Donald Trump for what she calls a historic act of courage that "truly saved the world" after he dismantled Iran’s nuclear program in a surprise attack on Saturday. While progressive politicians and media elites call for the impeachment of Trump over the legality of the strike, those who’ve actually lived under the tyranny of Iran know that Trump’s bold action was a game-changer.
Ellie Cohanim, former Deputy Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism during the first Trump administration, said President Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for giving the world “peace through strength.”
“President Trump has truly saved the world, and I certainly hope that we will see recognition for what he has accomplished for the entire world. He deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for this," she said.
Cohanim also praised Trump’s decisive move to dismantle Iran’s nuclear capabilities, calling it “a new hope” for the Middle East. She expressed optimism that this bold action could pave the way for lasting peace between Israel and its neighbors.
She’s not alone in saying President Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for his actions—leaders and commentators from Pakistan and several others have echoed that sentiment, applauding his bold stand against Iran’s nuclear threat.
Pakistan officially nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting him with a “decisive diplomatic intervention” during a volatile period of regional conflict. Earlier this year, the Pakistani government applauded Trump’s “pivotal leadership” in helping de-escalate tensions following a series of deadly cross-border attacks—the worst clashes between the two nuclear-armed neighbors since 1971. The violence had claimed dozens of lives and raised serious concerns about a potential broader war.
Others, including Fox News’ Sean Hannity, have also supported awarding President Trump the Nobel Peace Prize. In a conversation with Townhall’s Katie Pavlich, Hannity praised Trump’s bold leadership and the global impact of his actions.
