Question

Residents of USA, would you defend this country ?

Answer 1

Yes, I would.  If my country called upon me I would.  I can't pick and choose the fights that my country chooses to get into so I have to trust my Government in that respect.  However, I am getting a little to old to go to war.

Answer 2

To the death, if necessary!

I voted FOR Bush twice and would do it again if I could.

Answer 3

Against who? your only enemy is within.

Answer 4

I would take up arms if we had a revolution. I would defend the constitution... yes. If we were attacked on our soil... yes, I would also fight for this country then.

I voted against bushco twice as well...

Answer 5

Not by arms.

Answer 6

Of course ,, for another nation to think a few nukes would demoralize the American people  so badly we would just give up is absurd , there are more weapons per square mile in our country than any 100 quare miles of another country on the planet , we as Americans would fight and die to the last man, woman or  child , now you can count on the new immigrants to tuck tail and run ,, like the french a country of capitulateors and turn coats ,, never trust the french !!

Answer 7

if called upon yes; how? I would not know.  Interesting posts.

The future is at hand---Obama or McCain; liberal in sheep's clothing and Conservative with a few loose ends that need to be tighten up but would make the  best  president; he knows the ugliness of war but knows that it has to be taken when we are pushed.  

Just look at what the justices have done--rights for  war(terrorists) criminals--same rights based on our constitution; China is more ready than us--they have invested huge amounts of $ to their weapons while we have decreased our investments--Clinton took this action; Iran is willing to destroy Isreal the president--Aminijad is looking forward to the "messiah" of their belief system therefore, he, Aminijad does not care if war ensues and is willing to destroy Isreal; this "messiah" is the anti-Christ-  if you have access to the description of this "messiah" you will see the truth of who this man is; not nice. Don't have a link, if someone has the description please let us know

It is a different time--most have nukes and some are fearless with the idea of using them; will the US use nukes to set peace?  WW2 for example---yes we stand together and what may come we must be ready.  War is ugly but it has to be taken.

Some of our brave men even when they have endured a lose they still seek to be on the front line.  Brave are our men and women in the military.  May God see them through and may they come back well if they suffer a personal lose may they be strong to endure.

Answer 8

Absolutely! I am an Army veteran of Desert Storm and am honored to have been able to serve.

For those who would not defend this country, well, I think that this quote sums it up the best:

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. "

John Stuart Mill

Answer 9

Yes, absolutely.  

I share the populist anti-globalist sentiment of many who answered above.   A North American Union is treason against the United States, and I would oppose it as an illegitimate government.  

If asked to fight in WW II, Korea, Vietnam or Kuwait, Iraq or Afghanistan, I still believe that these are wars fought to defend U.S. national interests, to prevent dangerous expansion of those hostile to us.  

While I respect that an argument can be made that some of these wars were unnecessary and not in our national interest (Pat Buchanan has made the argument the most persuasively, of those I've read) I've listened to both sides and STILL believe they are in our interest.

That doesn't mean I agree with the decisions of my government 100%, I think mistakes have been made, sometimes entering a war prematurely, but always with the best intentions.  ("The road to h**l is paved with..." )

But I wouldn't call any of these "blood for oil" or similar slander of our government.

So yes, in any of these wars, I would fight to defend the United States.

Answer 10

i would fight for my country not my government!

Answer 11

Hey Falstaff you crazy F*CK

Remember September 11th?

Why havent you enlisted you cowardly f@g!?

Answer 12

I would defend my own country, yes. I voted against Bush twice.

Answer 13

I consider myself to be a citizen and not a resident. An American citizen has rights under the US Constitution. Ron Paul tried to get elected to preserve those rights. Bush #1, Clinton and Bush #2 have worked to establish the New World Order with the Real ID Act and the Patriot Act and totally reject the US Constitution.

Answer 14

I would, against attack.

NOT, N-O-T, to help Exxon or Carlysle bulk up their bottomline for their next stockholder's meeting, or so a stupid candidate could brag how he's taking care of business.

Huge difference there, of which we have currently -- some of us -- lost sight.

Answer 15

Yes, if it were for the right reasons.

Answer 16

With all I have......it has given me so much more than I could ever ask for......I thank God for this country......and pray for it, and our leaders daily.
