At its closest point, Japan is 120 miles away from the Eurasian landmass, which is among the reasons why it has never been successfully invaded. The Chinese are some 500 miles away and the Russian forces are usually far away because of the extremely inhospitable climate and sparse population on their eastern shore. — Tim Marshall

There are flash points between China and the U.S.. America’s treaty with Taiwan states that if the Chinese invade what they regard as their 23rd province, America will go to war. A red line for China, which could spark an invasion, is formal recognition of Taiwan by the U.S., or a declaration of independence by Taiwan. However, there’s no sign of either on the horizon. — Tim Marshall
We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence — on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day — John F. Kennedy

Gratitude is a vaccine, an antitoxin, and an antiseptic. This is a most searching and true diagnosis. Gratitude can be a vaccine that can prevent the invasion of a disgruntled attitude. As antitoxins prevent the disastrous effects of certain poisons and diseases, thanksgiving destroys the poison of faultfinding and grumbling. When trouble has smitten us, a spirit of thanksgiving is a soothing antiseptic. — John Henry Jowett
To give [the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba] even covert support is on a par with the hypocrisy and cynicism for which the United States is constantly denouncing the Soviet Union in the United Nations and elsewhere. This point will not be lost on the rest of the world, nor on our own consciences. — J. William Fulbright
There’s oil and gas offshore in and around the British Falkland Islands, known as Las Malvinas by Argentina. To regain the ‘Lost Sisters’ is a national cause and one that most of Argentina’s Latin neighbors support. In 1982, the British let their guard down and the Argentine military dictatorship ordered an invasion of the islands — which was considered a huge success until the British task force arrived eight weeks later and made short work of the Argentine army and reclaimed the territory. This in turn led to the fall of the dictatorship. If the Argentine invasion had happened in the present decade, Britain would not have been in a position to retake the islands, as it currently has no functioning aircraft carriers, a situation that will be remedied by 2020. Despite the lure of oil and gas, an Argentine invasion of the Falklands is unlikely since Argentina is now a democracy and knows that the vast majority of Falkland Islanders wish to remain under British control. — Tim Marshall

I think it's more normal to make a movie dealing with love, sexual or not, than to make movies about bank robberies, which very rarely happen in real life. So I would say the problem is not what some people feel is normal, I would say the problem is why this whole industry is far more obsessed with filming scenes of dominance, guns, invasion. — Gaspar Noe
Nations sometimes flourish by denying the crimes that brought them into being. Only when the original invasion, occupation, extermination or usurpation has been safely thrust into the political unconscious can sovereignty feel secure. — Terry Eagleton
My friend asked me recently, "Do you find it weird that you are now the property of other people's imaginations?"

I'm very, very worried about the invasion of privacy rights that we're seeing not only from the N.S.A. and the government but from corporate America, as well. We're losing our privacy rights. It's a huge issue. — Bernie Sanders
I think when you see so many Hindu temples of the 10th century or earlier disfigured, defaced, you realise that something terrible happened.
