Foreign Policy has released a new index of Failed States. It list countries that have internal and external struggles that are causing trouble to the government and failing as a provider for their people.

They use 12 social and economic, political and military indicators to bring this list of 60 countries.

Arab Countries on the list:
4) Iraq
28) Syria
36) Lebanon
38) Egypt
45) Saudi Arabia
51) Bahrain

I am really suprised that Bahrain on the list, but according to them they have high marks in the Uneven Development, Delegitimization of State, and Security Apparatus.

I would really like to see a complete list and see where Kuwait is on the list.
