"Rogue state is a controversial term"

@Diogen
Did you notice the word "controversial" and the subsequent explanation of reservations of various groups about the phrase?

The term is a perfect example of propaganda. Everyone who doesn't see the world like yourself, is "mad", "rogue" or something similar...
You repeat it over and over for a few years until it becomes the truth.
After that, you've got the perfect excuse for going after your enemy with the blessing of the population who is "aware" (like yourself) of how "bad" the enemy is.

Goebbels wrote a book about how to execute this type of propaganda, and successfully used this technique to convince the Germans that the Jews were freaks, and to turn their back as they were sent off to forced labour or death.

You can't be serious coming to a forum full of Russians and making statements like this.
During the Cold War, all of the Eastern bloc countries, in particular the USSR were "Rogue" according the the US worldview. Cuba, North Korea among others are still viewed in this way by the USA, according to Wiki. So I take it you would have been quite happy to see an attack against their country leading to thousands or millions dead Russian, just because your own nation was governed according to a different ideology than theirs?

I'd recommend this book for you Rogue State: A Guide to the World's Only Superpower
