Homeland, in it's present US usage is intended by the manipulaters as an appealing emotive term, much like Fatherland to the Germans or Motherland to the Russians. When I HEAR "home", I picture the warmth of the hearth, sitting in a rocker, all at peace and content. (Even though that picture doesn't resemble my home of origin, it's still the picture I get.) It's an Edward Bernays-ish mental image, even subliminal image. (How could you be against being secure in our homes? You beast!). But it really implies more in its implementation "law and order", in the sense of "law of the ruler and the order that serves the interest of that ruler."
