Hong Kong and Jordan

This is not what I had in mind, I expected Finland and Ukraine to be among the top 5.

[GeoSeven]

Maybe the westerners spoke with restraint and political correctness in mind unlike some of the other countries

I am not surprised. But the poll should be clear, there is a difference between being a racist and being xenophobic. I think this is a xenophobic poll. But racism applies to the same culprits in the list any way. Scandinavians are the least racist and more humanistic than a bunch of stinking Saudis and Indians!

geo, I remember a similar poll few years back and (i think) Jordan topped that one.

Those are a places i would never want to go except for arabia and only for hajj. There are places far worser like ukraine and russia

[Ismail87]

^ Ukraine is definitely up there. I know a guy who studies there and he said that if you go out of town or if you go out after 9pm you purchased a one way ticket to the grave

[Alphanumeric]

Lol, I don't believe it.

[Tuushi]

I wonder how it would be if they were giving choices with the races.

[Navy9]

If I had to nominate the world's most racist people, Somalis will be number 1.

[BlackVelvet]

Somalis are not that bad

[Basra-]

Jordanians--isn't that the nation of king abdulah? With American wanna be wife queen Nura? (who is indistinguishable to the western Diane sawyer/Barbara Walters white women) Judging by these two alone, I have the impression, this is a nation of superficial idiocy that worships America more than Allaah swt. So, if they become more racist than the none western, capitally dhuuso tradional Saudis--well I wont be surprised.

[AgentOfChaos]

India is more racist than USA? That's the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.
