These conflicts are relatively minor in the context of war. Overwhelmingly war has to do with imperialism and not religion. It is about control and exerting power regardless of religion.
Once again, wars of relgion pale in comparison the the constant wars of imperialism by the United States since WW II.

No I don't. You have apparently missed the point. I believe Lancer and I both agree that we don't see a particlar nation-state as a threat to world peace but rather a global totalitarian movement called Islamism which seeks the overthrow of secular states and spawns Islamic separatist movements. Examples include Trinidad-Tobago, Sri Lanka, the Phillippines, Southern Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nepal and many others. The two primary states who give safe haven to the exponents of this extreme form of Islam are Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Consequently, I suppose you could consider them the most dangerous nation-states.
