Bullshit. Thirty years ago it went to Amnesty International, and 29
years ago it went to Begin and Sadat. No genocidal Marxists in that
list. Closest I can find is Martin Luther King in 1964, who wasn't
genocidal and wasn't a Marxist but is often seen as a leftie.  Albert
Schweitzer got one in 1952. Actually the wordt person in the list is
probably Teddy Roosevelt, in 1906, but I reckon you can't call him a
Marxist.
