Unfortunately defining legitimacy of national security
within the context of terrorism is rather difficult.
It is not always about toppling towers, it could even
be (and was, once upon a time) toppling cases of tea
overboard. 

I am sure there are other national security concerns
that are far more legitimate for now, but I find
little discussion of them in civil lists - possibly
because they do not impact ordinary people most of the
time.

I wish we could just get on with our work of building
the tools that will allow ordinary people to converse
in richer ways than ever before possible, but I am
afraid we do have to put up with noise from the 'other
side' occasionally.
