Nobel Peice Prize or Peace Prize ?

Year after year, the committee is goofing up with the Nobel Peace Prize. This year, it goes to the OPCW . An organization, which has hardly done anything meaningful for the world so far.  Days after Syria accepted to abandon the chemical weapons stock, the OPCW gets a Nobel Peace Prize. Nothing can be more hilarious then this.

Last year, it was EU, again when the organization is struggling against its own unification and countries already looking towards exiting EU, the organization gets a Nobel Peace Price. But still atleast , it had a point that since the world war 2, there has not been any war in Europe. However, did it merit getting Nobel Peace prize is highly debatable.

Before that in 2009 , it was Obama. The president was just commissioned and within days, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Absolutely no background or history of peace making, but gets away with a Nobel Peace Prize.

The organizations, which merited getting a Nobel Peace Prize could have been the following

  1. Reporters without Frontiers
  2. Internet Inventor
  3. Gorbachev for dismantling communism in Europe 
History will certainly not look kindly on the committee to have not honored "Gandhi" with this award, despite being the messiah of peace .


It is about time, the committee does its home work right. Before the soul of Mr Nobel gets very disturbed with this war on peace.
