Other places to avoid according to the UN:
Turkey: Violence with Kurdish PKK organisation, 40,000 deaths since 1984
Iraq: I know.
Afghanistan: ditto
Ivory Coast: Civil war between muslims and government.
Somalia: Always trouble there, 361,000 deaths in 15 years.

And please tell them not to go to Dublin just in case they are carrying the bad karma around. Thanking you.
