Pre-Emptive Attack for Peace

When I read the Norwegian Nobel Committee’s citation in awarding the Peace prize to Al Gore and the IPCC, one paragraph in particular caught my attention. The fight against global warming is linked to peace because it prevents "increased danger of violent conflicts and wars". Interesting. What it means is that the Nobel Peace prize is awarded for a pre-emptive attack of sort. Maybe Israel or the United States will get the Nobel prize if they stop Iran from develop nuclear weapons? I would definitely support that.
