Edit Upon Further Contemplation: If it ever got so bad that the US was under threat of invasion, I'm fairly certain that I would've volunteered or been drafted by then. Also, one of the reasons I couldn't deal with an occupation is because I've heard first hand accounts about what it was like in Lithuania from relatives, and seen the basement of the KGB HQ in Vilnius. The things that are done to the population of an occupied country are truly horrible. And America is more than a land or even the people, it's an ideal that I stand by.
