The way modern weapons work, defending from within your own borders just isn't practical anymore. A simple example is those rockets constantly used for strikes in the middle east - often deployable from outside established borders.

The only true safeguard against those strikes is having a constant awareness of what's going on - for instance, someone deploying thousands of soldiers right to the edge of their border without actually crossing.
