I think a definition of rogue state would be a country that is not recognized. For example if I took over Hati and renamed it to MYCOUNTRY. Or how the Chinese view Taiwan.
I could be be wrong.

The word "rogue state" or "rogue nation" is the buzzword to use in gub'ment and media... we don't wanna call 'em out-and-out terrorist states or - God forbid - "The Main Enemy" Much like "suspect" has been PC-ified into "person of interest".
I wouldn't trust the Saudis with a 10-foot pole... they're teetering on the brink of a civil war; the current caretaker of the Saudi royal family hates Americans. They're absolutely scared shitless over what's happening in Iraq - if it works they could be next. Iran still wants to stick it to us since 1979. Pakistan's intelligence service (the ISI) really is the shadow government that runs the place.
I still say we nuke 'em all and let the fallout fall where it may!
