each of the peace prize contenders have contributed much so society and to judge them is indeed a tough task. what makes it even more difficult is the scale of their efforts and the the different levels at which their work has made an impact. while one might argue that monetary contributions by the contender or his organization are significant, we nust also examine that which is less tangible- the human touch. in many war torn countries, what is needed more now is love and mutual understanding rather that food and money. anyone who can suceed in doing that has my vote.
