Whatever...

I am sorry, but this makes absolutely no sense at all. Greatest danger to world peace? If that's the mood in Europe, personally, I think our foreign policy shouldn't give a flying toss about them. Really.

Nighty night. everbody.

Suffering from ads?

Israel is more often on TV and it has been that way for ages. Maybe that's the answer behind this result.

Well, I'm not super surprised about the result. Though I'd be glad if people really thought before they answered. Considering other countries too.. there are more countreis with nukes. I think India and Pakistan are both more dangerous. Iran? North Korea? There are dangerous countries.

But maybe many people answered Israel, because some of the problems might start from that region. Not because of Israelis, but because they have many enemis in the area...

And to answer the other question: Yes, you should give a crap about European opinions. I mean your foreign policy that is. You can always wipe these polls with your butts.

By contrast, 41 percent of Americans said they sympathized with Israelis and only 13 percent with the Palestinians



It's all in the eye of the beholder.

I have no problem and no surprise that the majority of the europeans sympathise with the palestinians. But the result I point out is something truly surreal.

Azazel, we get news from Israel every day almost. Either it's bombs exploding there, or IDF getting back at some baddies. Either way, it looks bad. Certainly this poll does not mean that this would mean Israel is the one to blame for the possible big threat.. it also means that since you guys are under attack and have WMDs, attacks all the time and civies dying in there... someone can lose it and go nuts. Certainly we don't consider Israel to be Europes threat, or enemy. Well at least I'd like to think, that people have voted like thsi because of the MASSIVE coverage.

Sometimes we have less domestic news than international.

I *think* (hope) its a classic misinterpretation of the question.
quote:

"Tell me if in your opinion it presents or not a threat to peace in the world."

The fact is that there is war in Israel. As long as this goes on, there will not be world peace. There is not a foreseeable solution to the war, hence the biggest threat to world peace, is Israel. Not necessarily a threat to peace in any other part of the world except Israel/Palestine, but a threat the concept of holistic world peace. North Korea? Troublesome, but not even at war. Lovely peaceful folks they be.

quote:

Five of the questions, including the one about which countries were seen as a threat, were held back and will be released Monday.

Thus the question above isn't saying that Israel are a threat to the world, just a threat to peace in the world.

I know. They really should do a poll about that in Europe as well.

World Peace can be achieved by:
1. Waging war on Terrorism.
2. Smoking excess amounts of dope.
3. Extinguishing all human life.

Maybe there could be peace, if we divided the world to 3-4 unions that are almost as powerfull as the others.
The result of war would be horrible.

As long as Israel exists, and there are animosities between Jews & Muslims, it is a threat to peace.

I was thinking of adding a pithy "God Hates Kykes" line for Az, but of course that would be offensive.

Although you could always please everbody and combine the three:

Wage war on terrorism whilst under the effects of excessive amounts of dope. Eveyone will b so out of it tey wont realise what they are doing, and will all kill ech other, thus extinguishing human life.

That way, everyone's happy (especially me )
