Excellent piece, Alan. The Nobel Peace Prize is an award for agreeing with the Nobel Committee's political views while getting the most intense world news coverage possible.

In other words, it is a bad joke. An even worse joke than Alan Greenspan being knighted for stabilizing the world economy.

The Ignominious Peace Prize would be accompanied by cash, too. It wouldn't be a cash award - it would be a fine.
Personally, I favor sacrifice of body parts- -the tongue and hands of the recipient. This is the only way of guaranteeing these people will not repeat their error.
