8. By NDAA protocol, I'm not sure: please clarify for me...

What constitutes a "belligerent" act or "belligerent" organization, or aiding or supporting or associating with a "belligerent" organization? Is there an inclusive list, or are we talking a list plus any others who seem "belligerent"?

Since the NDAA includes "belligerence" not only against the U.S. but also "coalition members", which coalition are we talking about and who are its members?
And what organizations or acts might be considered "belligerent" to them?

Where do Pakistanis fall in the equation, good guys or bad guys? Pro or anti "coalition"?

What about Israel? And its tensions with Turkey (coalition member)?

Since the Republic of Georgia and Estonia are members of one of the Middle East coalitions, can we assume they've been removed from the U.S. list of "possibly hostile" former Soviet satellite states where special rules concerning U.S. tourism and residency and exchange/receiving funds applied?

I don't understand the rules.
