over 370,000 so far and while the Nobel is irrevocable it is important to make your voice heard.

Didn't find it there either. Did find out it's an .org not a .com. And this.

Following message has already been signed by more than 20,000 people and mailed to the Nobel Peace Prize Institute
postmaster@nobel.no (general e-mail adress)
gl@nobel.no (e-mail adress of the director)

Message :
To The Honorable Members Of The Norwegian Nobel Committee
To The Director Of The Norwegian Nobel Institute
October 2000

Your Honorable Chairman Gunnar Berge,
Your Honorable Deputy Chairman Gunnar Johan Stalsett,
Your Honorable Committee Member Hanna Kristine Kvanmo,
Your Honorable Committee Member Sissel Marie Ronbeck,
Your Honorable Committee Member Inger-Marie Ytterhorn,
Your Honorable Secretary Geir Lundestad,

According to the Will of Alfred Bernhard Nobel, The Nobel Peace Prize should be attributed to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between the nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.

However a difficult task, this has happened time and again with the accuracy needed to command the respect it deserves worldwide.

To maintain this spirit, the signatories of this document are urging the Honourable Norwegian Nobel Committee to reconsider its partial 1994 award to
Yasser Arafat.

We believe this to be an unavoidable proceeding because of :
- Mister Arafat's obvious use of dictatorial violence to impose his authority on his own people;
- Mister Arafat's clear return to his life-long use of terrorism and violence to settle his feud with the state of Israel;
- Mister Arafat's use of violent, vindictive, bellicose and warmongering language in public;
- Mister Arafat's clear and unequivocal support for, and alliance with terrorist groups (Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah,..)
- Mister Arafat's use of children as shields to his own militia for the sake of propaganda in the media, resulting in many injuries and deaths amidst his own
people.

For the sake of The Nobel Cause and the untouched authority of the Nobel Peace Prize,
To prevent for this major event to loose its good influence,
To keep the dynamics of Peace alive around the world,
Out of respect for all those who commit themselves daily for Peace,
For the laureates of the Nobel Peace Prize since Jean Henri Dunant and Frédéric Passy in 1901 and for Alfred Bernhard Nobel himself.

For the sake of Peace,

Citizens for a Peace-loving world.
Every sender of this document is a signatory.

oh well such is the emphemeral nature of the web... :(


Go to

http://www.wiesenthal.com/index.cfm

and see if there is anything that interests y'all there.

Ephemeral? Anything once on the web is there forever. :)
Oh well, there are email addresses so people can flood the Nobel Committee with Revoke Arafat's prize notes. While we're at it why not revoke Jimmy Carter's and Nelson Mandela's prizes? Carter is a friend of Arafat and Mandela is anti-US and anti-Israel. I know the prizes can't be revoked but what the hey it makes a point. Since more Jews and Americans have won that igNobel prize than any other groups maybe a petition could be started asking every Jewish winner and every American winner to return their prizes...
