but you knew that, didnt you ?
There is always a context, declared or subconscious, when reporters use terms. Margt Thatcher objected to the way the IRA were treated by the Beeb and Ian Smith SR govt was always referred to as the Smith regime.
A state/country has to have a defined population, boundary and govt which functions as er a govt. and it has to be recognised by other countries. Recognition just means that X country thinks Y country is um a country and has nothing to do with whether the country is a good egg or not. [ In the WIlson era, there was always a lot of loose talk about withdrawing recognition from a country that wasnt liked. All it did was make life difficult for diplomats as there then wasnt anyone to talk to ]
sorry a bit of technical ( law ) answer but you did ask

After 3 years in that world...... (Desert Storm & Enduring Freedom).... pls I want the world all to walk away from ALL sides in that region. Also, I REALLY want to forget it all. Thx for your thoughts though.
I give the right to your views, through the blood, sweat & tears for my friends who were there my whole hearted support, and my wish for any sons & daughters to never be responsible for the outcome. My family has "held a line" from 1965 - 2000 for the Western world to the detriment of the region. Soldiers have never tried inpose a "solution" to the world with our values, that is an unfortuneate peramble to politics, but we must try to persuade the populace that " their - ISIS/ISIL" views of the truth are wrong is true.
