LONDON, Nov. 3 (Xinhua) — The United States was regarded as a threat to world peace by its neighbors and allies, according to an opinion poll published by the Guardian newspaper on Friday.

The poll was carried out by the Guardian in Britain and other leading newspapers in Israel, Canada and Mexico, using professional local opinion polling in each country.
