Sweden took in more than half of the world's Iraqi refugees last year, reports MSNBC. The Scandinavian nation offered asylum to 18,600 Iraqis in 2007, making it the most popular Western destination for people fleeing the war-torn country. Meanwhile, the main architect of the War in Iraq, the United States of America, has taken in just 3,000 Iraqi refugees since the fighting began.
