Depends On What You Mean By "Peace"

PowerLine takes issue with the latest Nobel Peace Prize winner. And for good cause. Wangari Maathai has stated for the record:

Do not be naive. AIDS is not a curse from God to Africans or the black people. It is a tool to control them designed by some evil-minded scientists.
I may not be able to say who developed the virus, but it was meant to wipe out the black race
.

Clearly this Nobel Laureate has access to some new definitiion of the word "peace" that I am unfamiliar with (but apparently the Nobel Committee understands). I don't mean to whine, but wasn't there ANYONE else in the entire world who was worthy to receive this prize? Come on...ANYONE???
