Nobel Committee: Revoke Barack Obama's Peace Prize

The Issue

Be it resolved, that while the Nobel Committee has given cruel warmongers (Kissinger, Begin, et al) prizes before, it was always in the context of the warmongers doing something peaceful for a change. As far as I know, it's an entirely new thing to give somebody a peace prize who has no real foreign policy record at all, only to have him spit in the face of the prize awarders by massively increasing global instability through aggression and transgression of international and domestic law.  In order to preserve what little (tarnished) veneer of  respectablity, and to make us feel like we are doing something in the face of this popular monster's assault on decency, we the undersigned respectfully ask you null and void this Nobel Peace Prize on the basis of non-performance.
