Blair and Bush up for Nobel prize

Quote:
Tony Blair and George Bush have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for waging war on Saddam Hussein.
The pair have been put forward by a Norwegian politician who said toppling the Iraqi dictator had reduced the threat of weapons of mass destruction. It had also laid the foundations for a democratic Iraq, said Jan Simonsen of the right-wing Party of Progress.

This is a bit dated already, but I'm surprised nobody has brought it up yet. There is a petition opposing the idea which has 100,000+ names already; what do you think?
