Who should get the nobel peace prize?

[Anomalocaris]

It is becoming increasingly common to award Nobel peace prize not for accomplishment but for effort

Peace itself seems elusive.

Then not granting a peace prize in this situation would validate the peace prize far better than granting it to award someone for merely pleasing western sensibilities.

The prize of 1973 went to Henry Kissenger and Le Doc Ho, for signing a Vietnam peace agreement. A peace agreement that didnt even last for a year.

If anything, than that is the most undeserved nobel peace prize.

And even after that prize being undeserved, the prize had gone to numerous people who did definatly deserve it. Such as Lech Walesa, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, Mickail Gorbachev, Yasser Arafat and Yizak Rabbin.

One or two fails do not discredit the prize, and despite some misjudgements I have absolutly no doubt that it will be given to people who well deserve it in the future.

For me, after the fail of giving the prize to Obama in 2008, the nobel commision gained back my trust after awarding Liu Xiaobo in 2010.

Didn't the commitee give it to themselves (E.U.) last year?

The EU is not the Nobel prize committee, although Nobel peace prize does seem to increasingly overlook the existence of sensibilities outside those common in EU.
