Anyone can be nominated. I mean sheesh, Bono was nominated.

'Sometimes it's necessary to use a small and effective war to prevent a much more dangerous war in the future,' Jan Simonsen, a right-wing independent in Norway's parliament, told Reuters.


quote:
An award to Bush and Blair would be a U-turn after the Nobel Committee awarded the 2002 prize to former U.S. President Jimmy Carter last October. At the time, the committee chairman called it a kick in the shins to Bush's Iraq policies as Carter had been calling for a diplomatic solution.


I would say the chances of them winning is 0.00%.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

quote..'If nobody acted then Saddam Hussein could have produced weapons of mass destruction and, in five or 10 years, could have used them against Israel,'

..I COULD have been a toothfairy..
..no suprises at all.. except, i gather, if we were living in 1984, great comfort would be a fact that war would be a matter of fiction, not reality.. therefore no casualties could be real.
..nothing new to be said - i can't possibly imagine a way to look upon this topic from any other perspective..but that could be just me&my own cultural/historic/too subjective weight pulling me down.. too many things that i've seen and been through convince me that it's not even a glimpse of what's going on..and every day i grow more and more bitter and more and more disappointed/depressed.. and nothing i can do could change that..

i would be oh-so-comforted if someone proved me wrong.

..i apologise in advance for grammar&spelling errors..

Didn't the same guy do the same thing last year?

I guess that when you're an obscure Norwegian politician, it takes a good gimmick to get your name on the international wire services.

Hey, if Kissinger can get a Peace Prize....

I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears
But it's alright-
