The safety of their own people would have to come first. No, in the event of an American uprising like the ones in the Middle East, the citizenry would be on its own.

my next question would be,
is a coup the same thing as a revolution ???
is there a difference ???

In such a scenario as you state, I don't even think external support would need to even enter the US. External support could instead focus on assaulting the US military abroad, or taking over American assets around the globe.

In my opinion...
The only countries that would help the people overthrow the government, would be countries that would take advantage of the situation to attack us or exploit the country the same way the current government does.
We will have to do it alone, we will have to do it quietly, and we will have to do it quickly. It would only happen with the support of the Military, and seeing how so many of them are brainwashed I don't think that would even happen. I'd imagine a second civil-war would be more likely than a revolution or anything else.
If Americans take to the streets against their
tyrannical government, then WHO or what
outside nations or entities could those rely on for
support ??? Whether it be intelligence,
arms, humanitarian aid, etc .... to get this
nation back on track.

Call me optimistic but I believe if it got that bad that millions took to the streets,
then I'd hope America could rely on it's own military to join with the people..
