[Peace-discuss] the Peace Prize goes to whom?

[Karen Medina]

The Nobel PEACE PRIZE goes to OPCW (Organisation for the Prohibition
of Chemical Weapons), and I disagree with the Nobel Committee yet
again!

In my opinion, the prize would be better administrated if it were to
go to the people who wrote the treaty about chemical weapons: the
"Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production,
Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction"
rather than the enforcers of the treaty.

There were so many better nominees! people who save lives, people who
speak for the silenced and against the power that silences.

I kind of think that the OPCW does not change whether people die but
how they die. And they don't challenge the United States' use of
chemical weapons. It seems they enforce the treaty when the US wants
it enforced.

Hey, if they wanted to award the prize to people who sacrifice their
lives for the good of the world, then give the prize to the people who
worked to control the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster!
