Completely fair and accurate, but I think I didn't make my intention clear in my original post. I don't think the binding force of security is ever really militarily based. I don't think the only reason Irish airspace isn't inundated with threats is because of an agreement with the UK. I think internationally the overwhelming binding force of security is mutual agreement be it through trade arrangements, potential economic disruptions of being ostracized by the international community, etc etc.
