Well, Nobel peace prizes aren't usually awarded to people calling for invasions of their home country either, or cheering for the extrajudicial double-tap killing of smugglers/random fishermen.

Who's to say a dead person can't have done the most to "promote peace conferences" as mentioned in Nobel's will? These days, I'd say dead people make a larger net contribution to peace than most politicians.
