Actually, just about anyone who could misread the poll - those taking the poll were (among others) given a list of 15 countries and asked which ones of those they thought constituted A threat to world peace, 59% picking Israel ( what hasn't been reported is whether they were allowed to pick multiple nations - my guess is that they did).

So the claim that people think Israel is the single biggest threat to world peace isn't supported by this particular poll.

As far as I can tell, Iran could become a wonderful country once they ditch the mullahs and the religious police - we can only hope they do so before the mullahs get nukes....
