So, it is interesting to see what is happening there....it is a foreshadowing of what is to come in other countries, in my opinion.
Do you stand by your principles and watch your country go down all in the name of ensuring certain freedoms, even if those very freedoms you're protecting could produce the demise of your very country. Or, do you somehow try and preserve your founding ideals that made your country.
Wow....scary to think about.

I don't believe you need to force a dichotomy such as that, but it would require a more sophisticated approach than is usually employed.
