King Gustav of Sweden announced today a new rule for the Nobel Peace Prize award. The Nobel Committee will award the prize only to those dead for at least 50 years. A formal death certificate will be required.
His Highness, Carl, when asked if the new rule was in response to the actions of the American President, Barack Obama, who despite the peace prize has continued wars in Iraq and Pakghanistan, engaged in a war in Libya, and used drones to bomb targets in Somalia, Yemen and a small country without a name somewhere in Africa or Asia, would only say, “who knew?”
