Arafat is probably the grand champion of undeserved peace prizes.
Carter should have gotten one for the Israel-Egypt peace treaty but instead they gave him one for "nuclear disarmament of North Korea"
Al Gore got a "peace prize" for his global warming documentary etc. (Which is like awarding the Nobel Prize in poetry to the work of Stephen Hawkings.
Just a lot of horrible horrible politicized peace prizes.
