My five most valuable items:
the Bible
my laptop
my cellphone
my passport
my digital watch
I wouldn't try to stand and negotiate, because these people, as shown in the excerpt, do not speak our language and only know violence, which I would prefer not to be involved in. I believe that if this situation ever did happen to me, then I would take these five things and as many other objects as I could with me and escape to the USA where such an incident couldn't possibly occur, being a democratic country. If I were prevented from escaping then I would attempt to talk to them about the benefits of saving these objects as the character in the excerpt did. I might also try to hide them, but perhaps that would not such a good idea, because if they find that I hadn't willingly given them to the soldiers, I might be killed. In this case, it would be better to bend than to break.
