Heres the plot. You are the President of a small nation, rich in oil and you have a lovely country. America decides to plant evidence that you are harbouring terrorists, so that they can invade and seize your oil.
What is your plan of action to prevent or expose the invasion?
EDIT: Added to the scenario-If you are captured you will be executed as a terrorist by america.
(Wether this really happened or not, it's just a scenario. NO FLAMING OR TROLLING PERMITTED.)

Surrender, and live quietly in West Palm Beach.

That's why I won't wait until they invade. I would go to the New York Times and the State Department with my tell-all sellout of whoever they want, and in return, I would live in West Palm Beach instead of Guantanamo.

Carefully and methodically corrupting the oil supply so that everything which uses any product made from my oil will become puddles of melted goo within 90 days of its use.
Booyah!

Probably sabotage all the oil wells before the invasion starts sealing them shut so it's going be a pain to get anything out of them. Make sure you don't have records where they are located either.

Make a deal with China or somebody for protection in return for preferential oil prices.

I would contact the Russian mafia and call in a few favors...namely, something that would embarass the US president...like the time he got into bed with Michael Jackson!
I love blackmail.

Something happen to your Big Glug, TiN? :p
Firstly, I would get myself hidden in some underground type place. Then, buy and make as much landmines as I could. I would then get all the oil drilling... type... places surrounded by them. Also, get as much anti-air firepower into the place. And, just to make extra sure, I will pack tons of explosive in there, and blow up the place if it gets stormed.
Or, attempt to disprove I was harbouriong terrorists in the first place.

(Wether this really happened or not, it's just a scenario. NO FLAMING OR TROLLING PERMITTED.)Okay, taking this hypothetical to be true-as-given, I would request assistance from Brazil, France, Germany, Russia, China, or anyone else with a competent investigation agency for assistance in investigating or disproving the American claims.
In addition to (or failing) that, I would permit UN inspectors free reign in my country on the condition that inspection teams consist of at least half non-American/non-British.

Immediately offer my full cooperation in the US' hunt for the terrorists like Musharraf did.

Or secretly circulate videos of the US president doing naughty things with fellow advisers in the USA.
Bribe the germans, french and russians with billions of oil for food money to stop the invasion, wait, that did not work the last time either :headbang:
failing that, lose the war so the US rebuilds my country, then I could steal all of their jobs with my new factories that I did not even have to pay for ;)
1) Sell oil and other resources to the USA in exchange for a vindication of my nation's character and an avoidance of the declaration of war
2) Convince the international community I don't harbor terrorists by sending (non-combatant) troops and money to Iraq and Afghanistan
3) Get rich selling oil to my allies
4) Retire at the age of 75 and live luxuriously for the last 25 years of my life :D
