Le Duc Tho, original name PHAN DINH KHAI (b. Oct. 14, 1911, Nam Ha province, Vietnamd. Oct. 13, 1990, Hanoi), Vietnamese politician and corecipient in 1973 (with Henry Kissinger ) of the Nobel Prize for Peace , which he declined. Le Duc Tho was one of the founders of the Indochinese Communist Party in 1930. For his political activities he was imprisoned by the French in 1930-36 and 1939-44. After his second release he returned to Hanoi in 1945 and helped lead the Viet Minh, the Vietnamese independence organization, as well as a revived communist party called the Vietnam Workers' Party. He was the senior Viet Minh official in southern Vietnam until the Geneva Accords of 1954. From 1955 he was a member of the Politburo of the Vietnam Workers' Party, or the Communist Party of Vietnam, as it was renamed in 1976. During the Vietnam War (1955-75) Tho oversaw the Viet Cong insurgency that began against the South Vietnamese government in the late 1950s. He carried out most of his duties during the war while in hiding in South Vietnam. Tho is best known for his part in the cease-fire of 1973, when he served as special adviser to the North Vietnamese delegation to the Paris Peace Conferences in 1968-73. He eventually became his delegation's principal spokesman, in which capacity he negotiated the cease-fire agreement that led to the withdrawal of the last American troops from South Vietnam. It was for this accomplishment that he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Tho oversaw the North Vietnamese offensive that overthrew the South Vietnamese government in 1975, and he played a similar role in the first stages of Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia in 1978. He remained a member of the Politburo until 1986.

From: COMITATO ITALIANO revoca del Nobel per la Pace 1973 http://www.peacelink.it/tematiche/latina/nobel/ CC: FOR ALL INFORMATION MEDIA (please feel free to publish this letter A NOBEL PRIZE WITHOUT PEACE The Nobel Prize for Peace is always entrusted with a firm and direct symbolism. Giving the Nobel Prize for Peace to someone who develops Peace in everyday life demands great responsibility because of the importance of this nomination. This Prize has always been regarded as an expression of the desire to build a better life for the whole humanity. In the current situation of our present world is everyday more important to talk about Peace in a new and fresh way, acting in consequence. This is the main reason of this "open letter" to the Nobel Prize Comittee. In the last few months, the following petitionl was signed by a great number of people from various parts of the world. In the last few years, United States of America are trying to make their past behaviour and responsibility about cruel dictatorships of South America a bit clearer, particularly for Chile¹s and Argentina¹s ones. During these military regimes thousands of people were raped, tortured and killed and in many cases their bodies are still undiscovered: we are talking about "desaparecidos", who are alive in our minds thanks to history and to all men and women who are fighting in search of truth and in preserving memory of this atrocious past.

Main Page Peace Prize Sciences Literature ... Forums Nobel's dying wish was to honor top achievers By Svenska CNN Writer Tina Johansson GOTHENBURG, Sweden (CNN) T he first Nobel prizes were awarded in 1901 to carry out the final wishes of Swedish chemist and inventor Alfred Nobel, who according to his will wanted to recognize people whose work conferred "the greatest benefit on mankind." The annual awards in the sciences, literature and the promotion of international peace are among the most prestigious in the world. Nobel's interest in rewarding achievements in five fields was rooted in family tradition and his own life experience. Russian archives show that his relatives also donated large amounts of money to research and education. Nobel made a fortune by inventing dynamite, which greatly improved the safety of explosives. Alfred Nobel initially had hoped that his invention would put an end to war, by making it so horrible that no one would want to engage in it. He was wrong, but the wealth generated from his invention did create the Nobel Peace Prize, which, in retrospect, might have softened his disappointment. Father also an inventor Nobel was born in Stockholm on October 21, 1833. His parents were Immanuel Nobel, an engineer and inventor, and Andrietta Ahlsell. Immanuel Nobel had designed steam engines and underwater mines that protected St. Petersburg, Russia, during the Crimean War. He also was a pioneer in arms manufacturing, and had experimented with different techniques of blasting rock.

HOME OVERVIEW PROFILE: ANNAN PURSUIT OF PEACE ... RESOURCES Nobel turns 100: A century of honoring top achievers In 1921, the Royal Swedish Academy awarded Alfred Einstein the Nobel Prize in physics for his experiments with the photoelectric effect. (CNN) A century ago, the first Nobel Peace Prize was awarded jointly to Jean Henry Dunant, the founder of the International Committee of the Red Cross, and Frederic Passy, the founder of a French peace society that laid a foundation for the United Nations. Today, as the Nobel committee prepares to announce its 100th awards, the organizations seeded by those two men are more viable than ever. So is the work of dozens of other Nobel laureates recognized over the decades in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and economics. Albert Einstein, Madame Curie, Martin Luther King Jr., Linus Pauling, Isaac Bashevis Singer, Nelson Mandela and Samuel Beckett are some of the well-known recipients of Nobel prizes. While the prizes are among the most prestigious awards in the world, they are not without controversy. Nobel laureates were often at the forefront of dramatic change in the 20th century, which saw an accelerated rate of scientific discoveries, along with two world wars and tremendous social upheaval.

By Julie Bosman Posted Friday, April 19, 2002, at 2:08 PM PT Yasser Arafat, Shimon Peres, and Yitzhak Rabin won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1994 for the signing of the Oslo peace accords the year before. Given the events of recent weeks, can the Nobel Committee strip Arafat—or Peres—of his prize? No. The Nobel Committee does not allow for the revocation of any prizes—and it has never happened in the award's 101-year history. The 1895 will of Alfred Nobel, which established the prize, says it should go to the person who "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations." Nowhere in his will or the Statutes of the Nobel Foundation is there a provision for the revocation of prizes. But that hasn't stopped several groups from trying. An e-petition conceived by a group of young Jewish professionals is calling for the revocation of Arafat's prize. So far, more than 340,000 people have reportedly signed the petition. Though the members of the group acknowledge the Nobel Committee's rule on revocation, they are lobbying the committee to make an exception.

Kissinger, Henry A., Henry Kissinger, right, shaking hands with Le Duc Tho in Paris after their agreement on the cease-fire terms of the Vietnam War, 1973 [Video] Nobel Prize for Peace with Le Duc Tho of North Vietnam for their efforts to negotiate a peaceful settlement of the Vietnam War. Kissinger's family immigrated to the United States in 1938 to escape the Nazi persecution of Jews. He became a naturalized citizen in 1943. After studying accounting at City College, New York, he served in the U.S. Army during World War II and in the postwar U.S. military government of Germany. He received his Ph.D. in 1954 from Harvard and then joined the faculty as instructor, becoming professor of government in 1962 and director of the Defense Studies Program from 1959 to 1969. He also served as a consultant on security matters to various U.S. agencies from 1955 to 1968, spanning the administrations of Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson. Kissinger's Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy (1957) established him as a leading authority on U.S. strategic policy. He opposed Secretary of State John Foster Dulles' policy of planning nuclear "massive retaliation" to Soviet attack, advocating instead a "flexible response" combining the use of tactical nuclear weapons and conventional forces, as well as the development of weapons technology in accordance with strategic requirements.
