When Nobel Peace Prize Ceremonies Decried Wars In Afghanistan

Back in olden times, the speeches at the Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony used to decry wars in Afghanistan. I'm guessing that won't be happening this December 10th in Oslo.

Nobel Peace Prize presentation speech by Norwegian Nobel Committee, awarder of the prize, to Adolfo Pérez Esquivel, 1980:
