Which nation is the greatest threat to world peace today?

[JohnLocke]

At the current place and time, which if the following countries, for any reason, do you believe are the greatest threat to world peace today? I'm excluding the U.S and Iraq, because unanimous polls are boring.
And I'm sorry for not including Morocco/Algeria, Iran, and Indonesia/Malaysia/The Philippines, but I don't have that much room. Post an "other" response.

[JohnLocke]

1. I would have to say Saudi Arabia, followed by China, then Pakistan.

[TO Kid]

23. I wouldn't worry too much about China

The Chinese communists may not like us but they know a war would hurt them far more than it would hurt us. Unlike the muslim extremists, they don't strike me as irrational.

[JohnLocke]

2. Lots of votes but no replies...

[Bombtrack]

3. Of those I'd say Pakistan, because Musharreff is the only thing between

a real powder keg of nutball Islamic fascists and nukes.

If I were you I would replace some of the more irrelevant choices(the Stans for instance) with Iran and/or indonesia. With the arabian Penninsula are you including Yemen, Oman, and UAE?

That makes it a tough one and that would definetly be a close second if so.

[JohnLocke]

15. Yes.

With the Arabian Penninsula I am including Yemen, Oman, and the UAE.

[greatauntoftriplets]

4. The United States of America.

[truthspeaker]

5. no shit. Why isn't the US in the poll? We're public enemy #1

[JohnLocke]

8. Read my post.

It's in bold.

[AgentLadyBug]

19. rofl...... great answer.....

Here's another genius poll question:

Poll: 1+1 = ?

(a) 0
(b) -1
(c) 12

I'M EXCLUDING 2, BECAUSES UNANIMOUS POLLS ARE BORING.

lol

truth-schmuth - I only care about not being boring....

[JohnLocke]

10. See post #8.

[NecessaryOnslaught]

6. The axis of evil

U.S.-Israel-England

[CityZen-X]

7. The Axis of Weasels!

U.S./Israel/ U.A.E./ Stupidtron (Bu$h*t's Country)

[Bombtrack]

17. None of those countries are evil. God damn I hate this predictable

idiocy.

[NecessaryOnslaught]

20. Once again, with feeling

Ask the native Americans, the African Americans, the Palestinians, the India-ns, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc, and see what they say. You are a fool son.:eyes:

[graham67]

9. Do people discount...

the insane Elvis impersonator in N. Korea with the nukes?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

12. I voted North Korea.

The leadership is crazy and desperate.

[graham67]

14. Yeah...

The US allowed the nuclear genie to get out of the bottle there.

[NoPasaran]

11. Pakistan

The place is a model of instability PLUS they have nukes. No other place comes close.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

13. Pakistan and India, jointly.

Religious strife + political strife + land conflicts + a billion people + nuclear weapons = scary

[leftofthedial]

16. the USA

we stir up shit everywhere and we're the only ones on the list who have actually invaded and occupied another country in the last year.

[DrWeird]

18. US.

They're a big bunch of hypocritical war mongering human rights abusers. And they've got WMDs.

[JohnLocke]

25. See the bold section in my OP.

[bemildred]

21. None of those, really.

I mean to World peace. Some of them are in little wars or might soon be.
The US is the only nation that has that sort of global military scope, and
even that seems problematical, given that we are bogged down in Iraq.

[Raenelle]

22. Leaving the USA out of this question is ignoring the elephant in the room

We're such a pain in the ass, we have so much weight to throw around, and we lack the wisdom to restrain ourselves, that every other country is a minor player on the stage--they react to our belly flops.

[TO Kid]

24. Definitely the Saudis

Their education system indoctrinates everyone to hate and they finance most of the terrorists in the world. The other countries in the middle east and south asia are only interested in blowing each other up while the House of Saud pays their nutjobs to blow up everybody, as long as they do it in other countries.

Q. What's the difference between Saudi Arabia and Yogourt?
A. Yogourt has a living culture.
