Obama the post-modern Nobel winner

Just a quick question: can someone from the Nobel committee tell us what Obama has, er, actually done...

Iain Martin has the answer:

Think about it, it’s so post-modern: a leader can now win the peace
prize for saying that he hopes to bring about peace at some point in
the future. He doesn’t actually have to do it, he just has to have
aspirations. Brilliant.
