For reasons I cannot quite explain, finding a downloadable mp3 recording of Barack Obama's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech proved rather difficult. I did finally manage to track down a good quality recording, and have made it available as an mp3 download here:
Obama-nobel-prize-acceptance-speech.mp3
If you haven't already heard it, the speech is worth a read/view/listen. If anything, throw the mp3 on your audio player and give it a listen during your commute to and from work. In the speech, Obama makes a compelling argument for the inevitability of war, for the necessity of war and for the moral justification of war. That is not a very comfortable argument to make while accepting an award with the word 'Peace' in the title.
