It has to be political bullcrap. Obama kills a bunch of Libyans. Truly offensive to the sensibilities. The Media doesn't seem too interested.

While both the Person of the Year and Peace Prize are warrant they are being terribly mismanaged.
One peron I think of who should have won both, Malala Yousefzai.
Not Obama or the EU.

You forgot Al gore.
Gandhi? For non-violent protests instead of fighting? Debatable but he should have won before Arrafat... that alone makes it a joke IMO.
I mentioned him somewhere as being irrelevant... :lol:
You forgot the European Union. :roll:
Yeah, it is a joke now.
Ghandi pretty much wanted an armed revolution and saw the 2nd WW as an opportunity to engage in that revolution because the British Empire was weak and occupied with the Axis. It was the Indian National Congress who actually supported the British and prevented Ghandi from having his way. It was because he wanted to use force, and aimed people to revolt and kill the brits that he was imprisoned in 1942... and it was thanks to the indian national congress that the whole thing didn't degenerate even further.
So if you want to give him a nobel prize, you will give him a pseudo one. Since being forced to be peaceful is not the same as wanting to be peaceful.
