All agree that no, so called torture or waterboarding happened at Gitmo. It only took place in the field of operation
This is from the 2001 web site. ----------------------------------- Peace is one of the five prize areas mentioned in Alfred Nobel's will. The will was, however, partly incomplete. Nobel simply stated that prizes be given to those who, during the preceding year, "shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind" and that one part be given to the person who "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses." He also designated a committee of five persons to be elected by the Norwegian Storting (Norwegian Parliament) to reward the champions of peace and it was his express wish that in awarding the Prize, "no consideration shall be given to the nationality of the candidates, but that the most worthy shall receive it, whether he be Scandinavian or not." The Statutes of the Nobel Foundation promulgated on June 29, 1900, provide general guidelines for the awarding of the Prize. A review of the Peace Prize during its first one hundred years, reveal how the Norwegian Nobel Committee has interpreted Alfred Nobel's will.

The rules must have changed, unless I missed something about the preceding year. I wonder if the criteria was changed to fit Obama?
So......if Obama attacks Iran, do they take the prize back? What happens if he deilvers peace in the middle east? Does he get another one? There's only one place left to go when you're at the top.
