(Cavalier Daily) (U-WIRE) CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- On Friday, Oct. 11,
former President Jimmy Carter was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for
his peacemaking and humanitarian work over the last 20 years. On Monday,
Carter was off to monitor Jamaica's parliamentary elections, but
not before the Nobel Committee's Chairman made clear that his award
was meant as a criticism of the Bush administration and its plans
for war in Iraq.
