Thread Name: BS: Obama Awarded Nobel Peace Prize
Subject: RE: BS: Obama Awarded Nobel Peace Prize
If the Nobel Committee is giving Obama the Prize to encourage him to make peaceful
decisions, who can argue with that? But supposing there is more buildup in Afghanistan,Pakistan and Iraq's troops are not brought home?

This might have the adverse effect of giving Obama the right to do what he wants in terms of military buildup. They might rubber-stamp his war effort.

It's a political calculation that may have positive or negative ramifications.
