Survey: Israel is number 2 threat to world peace, just after Iraq
By Yair Sheleg, Ha'aretz Correspondent
Israel was ranked number two, just after Iraq, on a list of countries that threaten world peace, according to a recent survey conducted by French newspapers. Syria, Iran and Libya also appear on the list, albeit after Israel. The survey was conducted jointly by five local dailies in northwest France, which have a combined readership of about 175,000.
The list includes a total of 15 countries. Following Iraq and Israel were Afghanistan, the United States, Palestine, Iran, Pakistan, Algiers and Libya in that order. Syria appears number 12 on the list.
A similar survey carried out a year ago ranked Israel "only" number four on the list of countries that threaten world peace.
