They gave it to Kissinger after a decade of firebombing South East Asia, murdering a million peasants who only wanted a plot of land to grow rice after a century of French colonial dictatorship, denying the Vietnamese people their basic human right to democracy the entire god damn time.
That was over 5 decades ago. The prize is a joke, decided by oligarchs who are not like us, and do not stand for peace... always has been.
