It is astonishing that American President Barack Obama has been deemed worthy of the Nobel Prize for Peace. What peace has the US President brought to the world? It is disgrace for the Prize as well as the awarding committee that a person who has just sent thirty thousand more troops to Afghanistan to kill the people there in a futile battle is receiving the Peace Prize. Mr. Obama is following in the footsteps of Mr. Bush, the killer of humanity, to support a false war on a fake pretext against Iraq and Afghanistan. Leave the other people aside, even the Americans are protesting against the trophy of peace being presented to Obama after his new decision on troops in Afghanistan. -HAFIZ MUHAMMAD IDREES, Lahore, December 14.
