Yamaneko sez:
He deserves it if you think he has created or maintained peace in a particular part of the world or even throughout the world. He doesn't deserve it if you believe otherwise. It's going to be up to a panel of people to decide. The award doesn't mean much.
I'd have to agree with you on that, considering that one of the joint winners of the award in '96 was assassinated by a group that sympathizes with another of those winners...
