I only listed the countries that possess, are suspected to possess, or striving to acquire, nuclear capabilities.

I voted USA.

I voted "Other" (I have two countries in mind.)
1. France (Seriously)
2. ****** (Not seriously)

I voted USA mainly because of the large nuclear weapons stockpile and intact military.
I care not for endings or beginnings, but for the eternal and infinite spaces of the universe, and for the endless exploration of eternity, and mysteries which I will find plumbing the infinite depths.

"When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong" quote from Arthur C. Clarke, thought it was interesting.

Why is Canada not mentioned? :D

Anyway, I voted for the States, but not for their large arsenal, but for their economic takeover of the world (If you want, I'm willing to discuss in another thread)

Well I went with China. Not because of there weapons. I mean who cares about nuclear ablity. I really think that there will be a need for them in any war.

So I say china for there idealistic ways. Taken away peoples rights and freedoms.

I voted "other", thinking of Colombia, but then I thought about dangers to the individual.

Seen in a world perspective and talking about nuclear weapons, I would vote for the USA. Talking about damaging nuclear radiation, I would vote for Russia of Ukraine because of the open storage of radioactive material and their nuclear power plants.

I don't think that absolute power corrupts, but I do believe that politicians are the kind of people you really shouldn't leave to babysit your pet cat, let alone put in charge of a nation. That being the case, the larger and more powerful the nation, the greater the inherent danger from it: and a Dubyah-led US is a very dangerous place, indeed.

Right now, the USA. Once Dubyah's gone, who knows?

It's surprising to me that so many people voted for the USA. They can be dangerous indeed but my vote went to iraq.

That's strange, I voted for iraq to, but it only has one vote. Perhaps I voted for Iran instead by mistake. :confused:

I haven't voted at all as I do not think that Countries are dangerous. People are!

If, by dangerous, you meen ecconomic, social or environmental danger, I would have a hard time picking between the US, China and Russia. (with a host of others just behind).

Ah, fear is a very powerful emotion.

Like Yoda sez though, don't let it lead to hatred because that leads to suffering.

The USA is the safest place on the planet.

Look at NYC, within minutes of that terrible deed there was a Combat Air Patrol over the city. Only recently has this been downgraded. That's six months of continous fighter cover. Just try, just you try again.
