That Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. King shouldn't strive for peace? Or that Aung San Suu Kyi and Nelson Mandela aren't deserving of recognition? Peace might be elusive but it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. I am not advocating anything, simply making a statement. saden1 10-09-2009, 12:50 PM While there have been MANY revered and deserving recipients. When the world's most famous terrorist won the Peace Prize, irrepairable damage was done, IMO. AND I am not surprised you do not support it. Sometimes you just can't help but.....poke it with a stick. I can appreciate that. If you put it in the context that he won it with Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres it doesn't seem so bad. Perhaps it's time to create a new prize that awards people we only like. Oh never mind, that's impossible because one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

Wasn't he in talks with PETA to be there spokesperson way back when :) If Castro dies soon , he and saddam will be in line for the award . hooskins 10-09-2009, 01:57 PM Dude its there have been a couple botches. At the time of the award it was justified; people change, situations change, stuff happens. Thats just the way life is. That doesnt mean the entire NPP goes to shambles.
