Anons not familiar with the Nobel peace prize should study the obverse of the medal, "the friendship ceremony" as the committee describes it.

> The Norwegian Nobel Committee is composed of five members appointed by the Storting (Norwegian Parliament). The Committee’s composition reflects the relative strengths of the political parties in the Storting, and is assisted by specially appointed expert advisers.

>Alfred Nobel left no explanation as to why the prize for peace was to be awarded by a Norwegian committee while the other four prizes were to be handled by Swedish committees.

"During the early decades of the Committee's work, it was normal for both incumbent representatives of the Storting and government ministers to be members. The first Committee thus consisted of Prime Minister Johannes Steen, Foreign Minister Jørgen Løvland, Storting representative John Lund, Professor of Law Bernhard Getz, and the national bard Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson"

further hilarity:

"With this heavy representation by prominent politicians, it became difficult over time to convince the surrounding world that the Committee was not influenced in its work by Norwegian authorities."

pedovore cultists are such extreme liars:

"In 1977, out of continued regard for the Committee's independence, a further restriction was imposed whereby current members of the Storting can not be elected to the Nobel Committee. At the same time, the Committee changed its name from the Nobel Committee of the Norwegian Storting to the Norwegian Nobel Committee."

The committee deliberate in a special low-influence room

"The Nobel Committee conducts all its meetings in a special committee room at the Nobel Institute. The interior was designed by architect Carl Berner. On the walls of the committee room there are photo portraits of all individual laureates and the logos of all prize-winning institutions and organizations."

The real scandal is not the peace prize but the utter sham of the fake nobel prize for economics, which is actually " Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel"

In Memory of? - Please call it the Nobel prize. So started by a Swedish bank to shore up the shoddy standing as an academic discipline , Economics was to be treated as if it were a science and not a collection of contradictory rules of thumb without any coherent generally agreed upon theory at all.

"Peace is the prize"
