BBC News - Syria chemical weapons monitors win Nobel Peace Prize

The Nobel Committee said it was in honour of the OPCW's "extensive work to
eliminate chemical weapons".

The OPCW, based in The Hague, was established to enforce the 1997 Chemical
Weapons Convention.

OPCW director general Ahmet Uzumcu said the award was a "great honour" and would spur it on in its work.

He said the deployment of chemical weapons in Syria had been a "tragic
reminder that there remains much work to be done".

Do some laundry and you'll get your prize like the song says. I know I posted it before earlier this week, but come on, how is this not worthy of being posted more than once. THIS MAN needs a peace prize.

The concept is great but the selection process is not so great. At least this year the prize has gone to a group of people that risked their lives to do a report on chemical weapons in Syria, though the mandate given to them meant that only half the job was done.

It's almost as if it's all scripted.

Interesting choice. Just been researching this topic for a class. Interesting note: One man , Tho, refused the Nobel Peace Prize because he had to share it with Kissinger who he believed went back on his word.
I've been wondering all week who they were going to give it to. Did not consider the OCPW group. (wow)
