Motivation rejected because it goes against the idea of "peace", of "human rights" and of "forum etiquette".

Hey, the RL committee gave him one for doing the same damn thing!


Not quite true, he got one for... intention.

Though to be honest, there was a certain warlike party in the past century who expressed similar rhetoric on the subject of disarmament but didn't follow through.

I nominate Randall Munroe for his quick wit and sharp humor, which has decimated many conflicts on NSG with a simple link. This lets peace reign over NSG for approximately 0.0000000003% of a second, before resuming hostilities in another thread.

Seconded!
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

The Parkus Empire wrote:He ended it, didn't he?

Escalated it. The response was far from defensive.


Sib - he ended it by destroying the Georgian Army and not attacking Tbilisi. If one army is destroyed, and the other is recalled a few weeks later, the war ends. I don't think that qualifies Putin for human rights, a prime minister is supposed defend his country, that's not something extraordinary, but he did end the war, unless you want to argue that Georgian Army wasn't in tatters, but just "relaxing south of Tbilisi, while secretely using the anarchy formation". And the Russians left undisputed Georgia in a matter of weeks, after they removed all of the cluster munitions, made a general sweep of the area, and took of the captured war booty.

To be honest, the one person who really deserves it is the Burmese girl. Having the guts to stand up against a regime like that, that's awesome. But the Nobel Peace Prize is a political joke, it'll likely go to Obama, or someone like that. China needs a sense of humor to understand that it's a joke.

Anyways, I hereby nominate, with enourmous sarcasm, Mikhail Saakashvili:

For exposing that democratically appointed emperors are completely inept, attacking the Russian Army (Peacekeeper Battalion), thus enabling Russia to respond, as well as exposing most of war-starved manicas in the Caucasian Region, thus enabling the Russians to finally pacify it so well, that no one is planning a major act, and the most that these maniacs can do, is an attack on a police station or a school, well away from the actual army base, under the proud banner of "destroying education in the name of freedom".

Runner up is Darth Rice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6yNGAasyo0
Runner up #2 is the Georgian Army: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkIPA6JC ... re=related
