<p>"every office tower I go into is probably going to be hit by an airplane." </p>
<p>CORY LIDLE!</p>
<p>Rootbeerceaser can you stop talking like you've been there?
Just stop!</p>
<p>If you have not been to a country, then you cannot possibly say such a statement like if you wave a dollar you would get shot</p>
<p>&& you say it with such confidence like you've been there</p>

<p>I feel this topic is getting off from its original thing of just being a fun survey, so ill stop my argument ^_^</p>
<p>North Pole region countries. ;)</p>
<p>I know someone whose parents are from Iran and he goes there once or twice per year and says not a lot of people are anti-American, they're just against America's foreign policy in the Middle East. He says that it's a pretty safe country with good healthcare and education, it's just that the government is anti-American.</p>
<p>If you are including countries that 'ordinary people' can't easily visit, than definetly Iraq. Beyond that, I would say some of the central African states...not much law and plenty of anti-Americanism.</p>
<p>iran is most definitely not scary to visit -- it's actually very pleasant, and i know this from personal experience: the international physics olympiad was there this year, and i was on the american team. we were holding up a big "USA" sign during a lot of events, so it's not like we were just blending into the background. they are extremely friendly there, and we had a great time.</p>
<p>My geography professor says Iran has a totally awesome family planning program.</p>
<p>Pakistan! Also, there are some parts of India that would be much improved if hit with an atom bomb.</p>
<p>the US of course. our soceity is the most terrifying thing i've ever come across!!</p>
<p>I've been to Iran several times, and it's no problem at all. The media just makes it look bad. Iran doesn't hate Americans, they just don't like the foreign policy, and especially the whole Israel thing (who wouldn't be ****ed off if someone just butted in and stole a bunch of land?). But Iranians are fine with Americans. And when people say Iranians (or anyone) are poor because they only make $X a day, remember that the cost of living may only be $X/2 a day.</p>
<p>My vote goes to Vietnam. I don't think it's very fun to see dead dogs boiled hanging in a window...</p>
<p>Has anyone mentioned Colombia and South Africa?</p>
<p>slovakia.....HOSTEL anyone!!</p>
<p>Sure mathwiz. The flag burning and the people violating "chastity laws" hung from construction cranes is all a show then. I wouldn't touch Iran with a 10-foot pole. Why are so many Iranians fleeing the country then? The structure of Iranian society is extremely sexist and chauvinistic, and I want nothing to do with it. Same with Saudi Arabia. As for its stance toward Israel, civilized countries do not threaten other countries with "annihilation" in passing.</p>
<p>^ Completely agree with the above</p>
<p>Saudi Arabia by far.</p>
<p>I am not even allowed to enter the country, because im Jewish..</p>
<p>They dont let Jews in</p>

<p>I've actually been to Iran, I know what it's like, I have family who've lived there, and I know enough Farsi to recognize a deliberate mistranslation. So know what you're saying before you say it. There's no masses of people fleeing the country and there's no people being hung from construction cranes. As for the Israel thing, who wouldn't be pis*ed if you just barged in and stole a bunch of land for yourself?</p>
<p>I think Detroit is a very scary country.</p>
