Simple question. Do you love your country so much that you would be willing to lay down your life for its benefit?
Would you die for your country?

Not in the service of this government or the monarchy. But for a free Republic I would risk my life.
Otherwise my sacrifice would only serve a corrupt elite, big business and monarchy rather then democracy and my people.

René Descartes over de Nederlandse Republiek.
Thought #1 - The optimal idea isn't to die for one's country but to make the other person die for theirs.Originally Posted by Loki
Thought #2 - I'm in this ratrace for myself, not for a country. Particularly seeing as that our countries are mostly out to tax us, control us and forcefeed us with unwelcome and unpopular social agendas.
Thought #3 - If faced with some kind of external threat to my (and my nearest & friends') wellbeing then there is a more pursuasive argument to risk all. Getting killed for the adventures of banksters and politicians, as is usually the case with wars, does not fit in with my agenda.
Any day, but read the question carefully - would you die for your country - you put it very clear and left no space for the discussion. Would I die for my government - hell no.
No way. I won't die for a tricolore rectangular piece of flag (or whatever the colour).
Yes I love this land for it is mine, It was given to me by my father, who got it from his. this is my birthright and I would rather die than to see it fall into the claws of an other bloodline. and before anyone starts on the whole immigrant-issue I just like to say this, I'm not dead yet.
I'm ready to die for Celtoliguria Vaterland.
I believe in reincarnation and I hope that i coul die 1000 time for my beloved Celtoliguria.
Given my occupation, I'd damn well better be prepared to.
The French have always had the white flag....
Cynicism is an attitude or state of mind characterized by a general distrust of others' apparent motives or ambitions, or a general lack of faith or hope in the human race or in individuals with desires, hopes, opinions, or personal tastes that a cynic perceives as unrealistic or inappropriate, therefore deserving of ridicule or admonishment. It is a form of jaded negativity, and other times, realistic criticism or skepticism. The term originally derives from the ancient Greek philosophers called the Cynics who rejected all conventions, whether of religion, manners, housing, dress, or decency, advocating the pursuit of virtue in accordance with a simple and unmaterialistic way of life.
Face it: the English have still been kicked out of France by a bunch of surrender monkeys.The French have always had the white flag....
