The country has to be Islamic or ruled by a madman obviously. The two biggest examples are Somalia or North Korea.

What a loaded question.

Ask Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano and O.

You'll get a different answer depending on what day it is and what group they're pontificating in front of.

But generally they'll point toward America.

We are our own worst enemy according to our government.
Maybe because they can only exert power over us being other countries are not within their jurisdiction.

What defines a terrorist nation is whatever our political leaders SAY is a terrorist nation. And of course, our populace is dumb enough to believe it.

that's not a thing. Maybe you're thinking of a state sponsor of terrorism? A state that supports terrorism?

I imagine a terrorist nation would require secret police, a swift and harsh justice(less) system, probably a command economy, and the general use of fear to keep the population in line.

Clearly a terrorist nation is a nation with dis-similar goals to that of USrael. Yawn.
