Would the US military respond like the Egyptian military?

The Egyptian military's conduct in the recent demonstrations is encouraging. They could have easily replicated the Chinese military's conduct in Tianenmen Square. They did not.
Their conduct reminded me of a very important American military movement called "Oath Keepers."
The Oath Keepers have a list of orders they will not obey:
1. We will NOT obey orders to disarm the American people.2. We will NOT obey orders to conduct warrantless searches of the American people.3. We will NOT obey orders to detain American citizens as “unlawful enemy combatants” or to subject them to military tribunal.4. We will NOT obey orders to impose martial law or a “state of emergency” on a state.5. We will NOT obey orders to invade and subjugate any state that asserts its sovereignty.6. We will NOT obey any order to blockade American cities, thus turning them into giant concentration camps.7. We will NOT obey any order to force American citizens into any form of detention camps under any pretext.8. We will NOT obey orders to assist or support the use of any foreign troops on U.S. soil against the American people to “keep the peace” or to “maintain control."9. We will NOT obey any orders to confiscate the property of the American people, including food and other essential supplies.10.We will NOT obey any orders which infringe on the right of the people to free speech, to peaceably assemble, and to petition their government for a redress of grievances.
