Unfortunately, the last years choices by the Nobel Peace Prize Committee have meant that the October announcement is awaited with growing unease by many, myself included.
However, this years Laureate is a very legitimate and highly interesting choice! Congrats to the International Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, a historically typical choice of the committee. Focus on disarmament and international cooperation for a more peaceful world. Fully in line with the testament at least!
I would have liked to see Dennis Mukwege though, or Galtung, Lederach or Sharp. The committee has through the years completely forgotten the researchers... which is typical of politicians!
