We are all Americans Now!

On p.362 of The 9/11 Commission Report, there is this quote:

In this sense, 9/11 has taught us that terrorism against American interests "over there" should be regarded just as we regard terrorism against America "over here." In this same sense, the American homeland is the planet.

Nice of them to tell the rest of us. Or does this mean that I am now an illegal alien in the New America? We cannot say YANKEE GO HOME !!! because they are already home here and everywhere.

That wonderfully ill-defined term, "American Interests", sure covers everything from gun running, drug running (illegal and legal), money laundering (aka international finance), standover tactics (aka FTA), loan sharking (aka IMF and World Bank), and Murder Inc. (aka US Armed Forces). I wonder why the Mafia bothers to compete against the US Government - the former are completely outclassed.
