Depends on the invader really, but assuming genocidal archetype: I'm in the woods with a rifle fighting a guerilla war until they hunt me down. An invasion of my country by people not bent upon annihilation might be met with somewhat more restraint.

So basically agreeing with most posters. I'm not willing to die for land, but I will gladly fight to preserve the lives of people and their way of life.

I live in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region in China. If Hong Kong was being threatened, I would likely resist but my first choice would be trying to get out of there in any way I can. I've got a soul but I'm no soldier.
I would rather duct tape myself onto a continuously running Space Mountain than to die fighting for China.

Let me see. For the USA I would fight, kill, torture, be tortured, pillage, burn, massacre. though would I die, not unless I take down at least ten of the enemy with me.

So many americans have no idea how good they truly have it.

support the troops, pay higher taxes and f&#k the 2nd amendment.

No. I do not feel that my country is the best based on the fact I was born in it, I do not feel my country is anywhere near the best. If we didn't have a terribly corrupt and inefficient goverment, that doesn't start wars it doesn't really need to, and a population half filled with idiots I'd consider it.

Would I die for the United States?

...Probably not.

Unless it's a damn good reason.

Well...
I guess I would if you know, some new force invaded and it was either
A)hide in my basement until I get bombed
B)run out with a weapon and protect those I care for.
Yeah my choice would be B, perhaps with a little more tactic then 'Just run out with a weapon.'
Then again if a war started in my city, not gonna lie, I'd shit myself.

For the people I knew, and loved, yes. As long as I picked the way I was killed. Something painless.
But for some Millionaires, People I've never met, and Politicians?
Not a freaking chance.

Hmmm...
Live for myself, or die for a piece of land...
Golly, what a difficut choice.
I couldn't have put it better myself.

I couldn't die for my country, nor could I kill someone else for my country. It's an unecessary loss of live, either way.

Hahahaha.

No.

I look forward to the day I can emigrate and leave this messed up country and its brainless people behind me.
