I wish I could believe the Prize would go to someone truly deserving, like the guy in the article. Unfortunately, whoever it is that picks the winner tends to choose poorly. Obama being a case in point.

I watched Schindler's List (again) just last night.Working behind the lines like that was very dangerous and anyone did that kind of thing (Schindler,Winton,Wallenberg,etc) deserve the highest praise,admiration...and prizes.

He’s an old white male who saved Jews. He’ll never get it. It will probably go to the 15 year old Pakistani girl shot in the head by the Taliban.

Isn't there a documentary about this guy, I'm sure I heard his story a few years back. And I remember him being so sad he couldn't get more children out before the war broke out. Or is that a different guy?

You would have thought he would have gotten the award a long time ago... He should have gotten it instead of Obama, for instance.

I don’t think the Nobel committee sees saving Jewish children as a humanitarian act. If he had somehow saved Palestinian children and killed Jews in the process he’d be a shoe-in
