| I'm not sure if you're serious Soriak, but if you really think they deserved the peace prize you (and the commitee) have a very broad definition of "peace". I'd prefer it if they stopped awarding it every single year and instead saved it for when someone contributes to actually ending a war. It's supposed to be the peace prize, not the powerpoint prize or the poverty prize.
I'm a huge fan of Yunus' work and microfinancing in general, but it has nothing to do with creating peace, unless you correlate poverty levels to war zones and argue that reducing poverty reduces the risk of war, in which case you have a valid argument, but one I disagree with. |
