Nobel Peace Prize Tip Off

Wondering who is going to win the Nobel Peace prize? Hint: Osama bin Laden and Abu Musab al-Zarqawi have a better chance of winning it than George W. Bush.

"If the prize branches out to virtually anything that is trendy, it stands to lose the intent that (Swedish founder) Alfred Nobel had -- to prevent war," said Janne Haaland Matlary, a professor of political science at Oslo University.

"I think there are two acute problems in the world -- anti-terror work and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction," she said.

That's right. It's not terrorists that are one of the two acute problems in the world. It's anti-terror work. And what about the WMD's? Are they afraid that they'll fall into the hands of the anti-terror folks? It's inconceivable that Islamic terrorists would ever want to get their hands on nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons for, say, an attack on Israel, or the British Parliament, or an American subway system.

I'll put my money on George Soros getting it.
