Abiy Ahmed, 2019: https://time.com/5910962/abiy-ahmed-ethiopia-conflict/

Al Gore? Not a murderer, but what the hell did he have to do with peace? One movie that was dubiously sourced and made zero difference.
The deeply hideous Aung San Suu Kyi: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-pacific-11685977
The equally-hideous "Saint" Teresa of Kolkata: (I know nobody needs the link, but it's Hitch, so you get it anyway.)
Words fail me on Henry Kissinger, just as they did in 1973.
The United Nations? No joke - the UN actually won it in 2001, a neat couple of months after the US invasion of Afghanistan.
Trump would not even be close to the worst person awarded one if they'd thrown it his way.
