WASHINGTON — The United States is among the least peaceful nations in the world, ranking 96th between Yemen and Iran, according to a new index released on Wednesday that evaluates 121 nations based on their peacefulness.

According to the Global Peace Index, created by The Economist Intelligence Unit, Norway is the most peaceful nation in the world and Iraq is the least, just after Russia, Israel and Sudan.

Canada was deemed the eighth most peaceful nation.

“The objective of the Global Peace Index was to go beyond a crude measure of wars by systemically exploring the texture of peace,” said Global Peace Index President Clyde McConaghy.

He said the inaugural effort proves “peace can and has and will continue to be measured.”

The index was compiled based on 24 indicators measuring peace inside and outside of a country. They included the number of wars a country was involved in the past five years, how many soldiers were killed overseas and how much money was made in arms sales. Domestic indicators included the level of violent crimes, relations with neighboring countries and level of distrust in other citizens. The results were then reviewed by a panel of international experts.

“We were trying to find out what positive qualities lead to peace,” said Leo Abruzzese, the North American editorial director of the intelligence unit that is part of The Economist Group that publishes the well known magazine.

He said they found in general the most peaceful countries were the smallest, the most politically stable and democratic.

The part that LGF left out (shocking, I know) is that DeWinter was replacing signs reading "Zonder Haat Straat" (Without Hate Street), that went up after some extreme right wing ass hole murdered a little girl and her foreign nanny and injured another foreign woman. Which is part of why it got such a strong reaction when DeWinter took it upon himself to change the sign. Also, as a trivial side note, he isn't a Belgian Nationalist, he's a Flemish Nationalist, meaning he's one of the yahoos who is pressing for the northern half of Belgium to secede.
