According to [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/rogue%20nation ''The Free Dictionary''], a '''rogue nation''' is "a Third World state that possesses [[weapons of mass destruction]] and sponsors [[terrorism]]." The "''Merriam-Webster American Collegiate'' dictionary defines '''rogue''' as: vicious and destructive; isolated and dangerous or uncontrollable. The phrase as often used as a superfluous abstraction of "America's enemies" as defined by the US government. "We cannot let terrorists and rogue nations hold this nation hostile[sic] or hold our allies hostile[sic]." — George W. Bush, Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 21, 2000.† Also see:*[[Ad hominem]]*[[Propaganda techniques]]*[[Rogue State: America at War With the World (2004 book)]]*[[United States as a rogue nation]] ''† This quote has not been verified yet.''{{Editorial Review}}
