'Foreign Policy ' survey: Most Dangerous Countries in the World


"Foreign Policy just released a survey from what it calls its "Top 100 Global Thinkers," a list that includes Friedman, Robert Kagan, Henry Kissinger, and David Petraeus, among others, and here were the results for this question: "What is the Most Dangerous Country in the World"
"Ten percent of Foreign Policy's so-called "Smart Crowd" say the U.S. is "the most dangerous country in the world" (tied with Iran and Somalia), while 4% say it's Israel (tied with North Korea). It seems that the mentality Friedman condemns as the province of primitive, paranoid Muslims extends a bit farther than that."

  1. This is wrong. Why isn't Saudi Arabia in the list? Why isn't Egypt?

  2. A large panel have chosen them. If you want to know who they are and why they voted this way, you'll have, unfortunately, to click on the link and read the article. Otherwise I agree that Saudi Arabia is very dangerous in a different way though. Their religious zeal is a huge threat.
