"No.. every "nationless individual" has to live somewhere and find sanctuary within the borders of another nation."

I know you desperately want to justify nation building on the basis that we can only protect ourselves if we intervene in Iraq, Afghanistan and probably a host of other places where you want to "help" them but you really don't get it, do you?

A nationless individual is someone who doesn't need citizenship or the protection of any nation to further his aims. All he needs is money, a political network and anonymity. In this age of technology he can communicate through others, plan, set actions in motion and function very well from anywhere in the world. He DOES NOT need a government to grant him sanctuary because many regions of the world are chaotic, lawless and corrupt and populated by people who support those with radical, anti-Amercan agendas.

So, as I posted, the real danger from a major attack on the US comes not from those "minor" nations where we have an address and launch coordinates for their leadership, but rather "the real danger comes from nationless people living in the shadows who'd like to initiate the religiously based WW111 scenario that you seem so determined to promote."

It amazes me that you can't seem to comprehend that simple truth. Ed
