The 2008 Global Peace Index has been released. Iceland is number 1 followed closely by Denmark, Norway, New Zealand and Japan. The UK is a disappointing 49th. The United States, beacon of peace for the planet, is 97th behind such oceans of serenity as Jamaica, Bangladesh, the Dominican Republic, Syria and Rwanda. The success story of Iraq finds it in dead last place behind Somalia, the Sudan and then Afghanistan. The Eternal Global War on Terra must be going well then.
