"Dog meat diplomacy wins Nobel

OSLO, Norway--An August 31 dog meat dinner for South Korean diplomats hosted in the North Korean capital city of Pyongyang by North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il helped win the 2000 Nobel Peace Prize for South Korean president Kim Dae Jung.
Kim Dae Jung, 74, won the $908,300 Nobel Peace Prize for taking the initiative since 1997 in opening diplomatic relations with North Korea. Kim Jong-il won a rare honorable mention from Nobel Committee chair Gunnar Berge for responding positively."
