I say Israel - and I hope this is taken in an utterly nonpartisan way, which takes absolutely no position vis-a-vis the legitimacy of either conservatism or the Israeli state. I just think some core aspects of Israeli government and society are in line with mainstream US conservatism: a free-market liberal democracy of course, but with formal religious-ethnic affiliation, compulsory military service with training on firearms (and licensing to possess same) for all citizens, and a generally hawkish stance on questions of military and defense. They are also highly security-oriented, some would say in a much more effective way than the US government, and its security apparatus employs profiling techniques which almost undoubtedly have a racial component (<span>and </span><span>conservatives would no doubt want to insist that these two facts are directly related). I believe that taxation rates are roughly on par with that in the US, if not a bit less... though not nearly as low as Switzerland. </span>

Answer:
During the second Virginia Convention at St. John´s Church in Richmond in 1775, Patrick Henry, an American attorney and orator, gave a speech saying the words “Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death”, with these words he was encouraging people to defend themselves from Great Britain. If people wanted liberty they will have to fight for it, during the fight you might die but life without liberty have no sense so give me liberty or give me death.
