Rep. Buddy Carter nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, sending his letter to the Nobel Committee on Tuesday. The letter praised Trump’s “extraordinary and historic role” in ending what people are calling the 12-Day War between Israel and Iran.

As Carter was typing up his glowing recommendation, missiles kept flying between the two countries, and the ceasefire Trump had announced was already collapsing. It raises a question about peace prizes and broken truces. Can you win an award for stopping a war that didn’t stop?

The war started when Israel launched a preemptive strike against Iran. Israel claimed Tehran was dangerously close to getting nuclear weapons.
