Kas karingiausi pasaulyje?

Žinodami istoriją, lyg ir nesunkiai galime atsakyti į šį, regis, paprastą klausimą. Tačiau skaičių kalba šalies karingumas matuojamas vadinamuoju GMI (Global Militarization Index), Globaliuoju militarizacijos indeksu. Be komentarų tiesiog pažvelkime į lentelę, kurią kasmet sudarinėja Vokietijos Bonos tarptautinis skaičiavimų centras (BICC), įkurtas 1994-aisiais. Šios organizacijos svetainėje galima rasti informaciją apie maždaug 140 pasaulio šalių GMI nuo 1990 metų – [www.bicc.de](http://www.bicc.de/). Įdomu, kad beveik visus šiuos metus lyderiu išlieka Izraelis, skiriantis daugiausiai lėšų ir kitokių priemonių ginklavimuisi, o štai „baisusis“ Iranas laikosi ties 32 vieta (JAV – 31-oje vietoje). Paskutiniais duomenimis, Lietuva – 59 vietoje.
