I wonder how, a group of people who's entire job it is to determine who's worthy of a nobel peace prize, can make the mistake of awarding it to someone who bombs civilians (I think it was hundreds per year until Trump stopped publishing the numbers).

From what I can tell it's a tweet in which they "recommend" his nomination, rather than nominate him themselves.
While members of national legislatures are allowed to nominate people for a Nobel prize, national governments per se are not.

Giving the peace prize to the commander of the worlds 8 biggest militias is an oxymoron no matter who is currently in charge.

Look up what Alfred Nobel is famous for inventing and the whole bombing fixation starts to make more sense.
