The most peaceful country

Which of these is the most peaceful country to live in?

Denmark for shore is the safest and is much more peaceful. I have no idea why you even put Iraq, chechnia, N. Ireland, Isreal, Or the palistine teritories. All are full of Terrorists

Israel is not full of terrorists!
We're attacked by terrorists, or at least used to be. Peace is just around the corner... :)

nlimey landslide for denmark, must b a good place to b!

well i decided not to post in the poll, for the reason that any forumers that live in those contries might be offended by the results. and also i really dont think that that is the right question to ask, seeing as humainity is slowly, but surely leading to global peace. mark those words. i guarantee it.

Freeyourmind, that was exactly what i ment, cause there are so many pallistinians living in Isreal that are terrorist and attack Isreal with suicide bombing. I also highly doubt the peace will hold in Isreal but i hope it does.

What a bad question...

That's not really true. There have been terrorist attacks by Israeli Arabs, but a really insignificant number, and in general, the Israeli Arabs do not constitute a threat on Israel's security.
Most of the terrorists live in the Palastinian territories and infiltrate Israel.
With Arafat out of the way, I believe that for once, there's an actual chance for peace. And even if there wasn't, we still have to hope...

Happy agent hunting.

Latvia.

what about?

Is this some kind of joke? It's not very funny.

ok, as long as we're on the subject of world affairs, I want to let my opinion be heard:
I think that the fact the u. s. invavded Iraq and kick Saddam out had a very large impact on the struggle for peace between Isreal and the Palistinian terriories. notice how treaties started being signed soon after the end of Saddam's reign. I'm so glad that peace may actually have a chance between the two nations. My uncle works in Tel Aviv, so maybe it will become a slightly safer city for him and my aunt(and their cats)

If I could choose adiffrent one I would have to say canada

Canada is peaceful: Nothing ever happens there. Plus, it has Whistler.

I personly think Switzerland is the most peacefull country. Nothing ever happens up there that i know of

Finland. :)
Well, out of those, Denmark. :)

Australia is the most peaceful country.
It's sort of isolated from the world. They don't understand the meaning of suffering.

I'm of the same opinion.

To say that Austrlians don't understand the meaning of suffering is ignorant... Australian soldiers fight hand-in-hand with American forces and other allies and Australia does face dangers, just not as bad as the rest of the world. This doesn't mean that we don't understand the 'meaning of suffering'. I could go on.. but i won't...

I didn't mean that literally.
I used to live in the Melbournian Jewish community and the contrast between the life there and the life here is startling.
I don't see why the Australians joined the American campaign. Whatever their reasons, it was the Australians looking for trouble.
What other recent danger had the Australians faced? The boat people? Please.
You shouldn't be ashamed of living in such a calm country. You're a lucky man.
By the way, did you see any of the filming for the Matrix movies?

i think the Australians joined the American troups to suck up to Bush... i didn't agree with it but meh... if we ever need help then America will be obliged to help.

i agree that the contrasts would be startling. Recent danger... probably not much, but in the past.... remember that this country was founded on convicts...

Unfortunately i didn't get to see any filming forthe Matrix movies :(

Funky lives in Sydney. It say so under his name.
What I mean by peaceful is that war never comes to Australia. The citizens never feel immediate fear, if you know what I mean. In America and Europe, and Israel of course, there is a constant threat of terror.
I lived in Australia not so long ago and I can tell you, it feels very secure. I can't imagine anything ever happening there. Which is a good thing. You Aussies should be proud of it. I don't know why you're arguing with me...

Silly me for thinking that the palestinians were living in Palestinia leading their peacefull lives untill the israeli people invaded it aided by us forces! PLUS the Israeli government is executing the leaders of the Palestinians not vice versa! I'm sorry if I'm insulting anyone, but the Israeli government is NOT very friendly!

THERE IS NO THREAT OF BLOODY TERROR!!! I am not afraid of anyone bombing my bloody house!!!! I am not afraid! The USA may be a country full of fear but I am not. Fear is unnecesary. If you fear what other people will do onto you, you haven't been so friendly either.

The palestinians have lost EVERYTHING. Is it so strange to accept the help of an outside force (even if he is on dialysis ;))? I'm against war, and I'm certainly against the violation of Civil rights, and that;s exactly what's going on there!

well i must say, Denmark it's my favorite country ..

wonder why?

btw, it's very peacefull here, nuttin ever happens..

*greatins 2 all from denmark :P*

in the list Denmark is of course the most "peaceful" country, but the other choices that are offered, aren't very "adequate".

I think there doesn't exist a "peaceful" country at all because every country had have violent times in history, though there are those with more and those, with less violent times.

And it's still a bad question.

*greatings 2 all from Germany* (though there aren't many germans here:D)

well.. ain't many danes in her too..

Heh heh. I know the guy, and he's actually an Israeli. He thinks he's being funny. I think he was being stoned.
HU, I am offended. I don't mind debating the Israeli-Palestinan crisis, although this is probably not the place for it, but it does piss me off when people start preaching to me about the conflict when they have no clue about the history of the place.
First off, the west bank belonged to Jordan up until 1967 when it, Egypt and Syria, with a little help from Iraq, declared war on Israel. Israel, alone, went on a preemptive strike and captured the west bank along with other territories.
The west bank belonged to the Jordanians, who tried to destroy Israel, not sat down "leading their peaceful lives". These people now call themselves Palestinans, and they are a different people than us and they do deserve some sort of independence, but you have no clue as to what you're talking about.
And we are not executing Palestinian leaders. We kill terrorist leaders, people who are about to launch terrorist attacks. It's called preventive action. It has nothing to do with politics.

No, that wasn't my point. I was saying that you shouldn't start preaching to people about stuff that you don't understand. I was just bringing some examples.
Having people judge you is especially annoying when they have no clue.

agreed.. i don't like his way of thinkin that war is a solution.. and the same with blair..

but shouldn't we end this "discussion?" if we start to discuss what's rigth or wrong in politics, we can keep on going forever.. !

The part of war being a solution wasn't what bothered me with Bush. If he had been telling the truth and there really were weapons of mass destructions in Iraq then there might have been just cause for the war, but lying to your own people is simply unforgivable. If he thought the regime change was worth a war he should have told the American public and not go behind their back.

yeah but I understand freeyourmind's reaction. That are people who think they know everything in politics and really have no clue what's going on. I think that's kinda annoying.

and that is why i didn't wanted to discuss it in the first place..

ppl can't get along over politics.. so..

*holdin my hands over my ears and shuttin my ears, while sayin: i can't hear ya, LALALALALALA etc.* :P

I studied a chapter of social studies in school and I think the Switzerland is the most peaceful!
My country(singapore) is peaceful too! ( <---Maybe we copy what the Swiss are doing) There are no riots and no racial discrimination here! It's safe and good here, but quite stressful in education and work...lol

Ah, good observation, OA. However it might be important to note that S'pore's more Orwellian than peaceful. We're the closest country to the models stated by games and ideals like those in Deus Ex and '1972'. Sure we've a good life...but try to be too individual or break the law...well, it is indeed quite an interesting situation.

I like the Netherlands, though I feel there are some things that need to be altered. Confucius says it all: "If it is dark, do not complain but light a candle."

Mr U

Heh, a mini-fight between me and HU. I remember this...

I am increasingly convinced peace is slowly but surely coming to Israel...

What about our good friends in Colombia? Now THAT country is peaceful...
