Since Obama got the peace prize for what he might potentially do, I wonder what the Nobel committee is thinking now that Obama has escalated the Afghan war to nearly 100,000 US troops.
"The Nobel Peace Prize is a Joke"
According to Nobel's will, the Peace Prize should be awarded to the person who:
“ during the preceding year [...] 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.[1]
Lets look at some of the great people and Organizations who have been awarded it.
The United Nations 5 times
International Red Cross 2 times
Al Gore
Jimmy Carter
Yassar Arafat
Henry Kissinger
Willy Brandt
MLK
Gorbachev received it, but not R.Reagan
