Nobel Peace Prize

<But then Kissinger also go the pace prize.>
He probably got is for bombing the shit out of Vietnam and Cambodia. He should be in jail.

Don't forget Menachem Begin, the notorious terrorist and leader of Irgun who revelled in killing civilians. Just 4 years after getting his prize, he launched the catastrophic invasion of Lebanon in which many thousands were killed.

Then there was Yasser Arafat. I'm not sure why he was awarded a peace prize.

Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat attended the 'peace Congress' in Camp David; ditto Yitzhak Rabin and Yasir Arafat; Henry Kissinger and Le Duc Tho attended the 'peace congress' in Paris, so I guess that worked well. But on that basis the Nobel Peace Prize could have been awarded to Gerry Adams, Martin McGuinness, Peter Robinson and the Rev. Ian Paisley...hmmm...some things are beyond parody.

In recent years the Nobel Peace Prize seems to have become as relevant as the Nobel Prize for Economics.

hmm ... yeah i see what you mean! Why give the prize to the European Union just this year that I do not understand, they have not made ​​any peace this year? :ignore:

Yea, Obama should win it again. He loves those drone killing(s). Even better when kids get blown up.

Note to self: stay away from wedding parties in Pakistan and Trash-can-istan.
