Re: Of course, Arafat is worried that Osama will win the coveted Nobel and have the admiration of Scandinavian women.

LOL... Bin Laden is dead, so Arafat doesn't have to worry (as you know, Nobel prizes are never awarded posthumously).

Mahatma Gandhi, the Missing Laureate

by Øyvind Tønnesson
Nobel e-Museum Peace Editor, 1998-2000
First published December 1999

It is widely held - in retrospect - that the Indian national leader should have been the very man to be selected for the Nobel Peace Prize. He was nominated several times, but was never awarded the prize. Why?
