Oh...I missed a word. You said "water self-sufficient."

There are lots of people, including myself who fit that criterion, so I don't know that it narrows things down all that much. It also seems a bit arbritrary.

I am just suggesting that drawing that line is, as you previously suggested, difficult, so I think you have to take it on a case-by-case basis.

I will say this: Kosovo set the precedent for this situation.

I think you got that right. I supported the Kosovo campaign at the time, although I now think the recent U.S. insistence on official "independence" was a blunder. The status quo wasn't great, but it was tolerable. It's like we can't leave worse enough alone.
