God first before anything else in this world. He'd never command a human being to betray the U.S.

In Islam, sovereignty belongs solely to Allah. Political Islam derides the nation state as a Christian creation (which it is). Islamists want a return to the Khilafa -- the Califate that followed Mohammed. The Ottoman Empire is seen as the last manifestation of this; its dismantlement by the West after World War I (Turkey supported the Germans) and the creation of nation states are seen as an abomination.
Christians and Jews, and as far as I know all other religions, separate civic and religious obligation; no rational believer would expect God to "command" a betrayal. "Render unto Caesar", etc.
The operative word is "rational".
If, as some allege, George W. Bush believes that he takes instruction from God, the USA is in a unique position today.

Well, I'm not from US, I'm from Macedonia. How can you compare God and your country, God is Love and He never have been commanded betray your country.

The Almighty has better things to do with Her time than to give a damn about what happens here. (This universe *is* pretty damned big, after all.)
On top of that, people HAVE been told by God to betray their countries. And they, like idiots, listened.
Too bad 999,999,999,999 out of 1,000,000,000,000, they're simply f*ed in the head.

My priorities fall in this order:
God, Family, Country.
If MY COUNTRY required me to denounce my God.. My Country would be loosing..
Thats how it would go down cuz..I don't believe God would "tell me" to betray my country.. God is Love..... Not Evil.
God Bless
