Bjork = Peace?

Global Peace Index 2008 – Global Peace Index

The Global Peace Index has released their rankings of 140 countries. Iceland has come in the top spot. What about us here in the US of A? Well, we’re coming in at a lovely #97 with the countries we’re currently occupying taking #137 (Afghanistan) and #140 (Iraq). Lovely.

The scorecard is actually kind of interesting, just to get an idea of how they come about this. I’m especially interested in the 5 point rating (the worst possible) we get for our ratio of jailed people in our population. Can’t really fault them for that.

    Björk certainly gives me an intense sense of inner peace.
