Only a handful of US Oligarchs will profit from such small reserves in Greenland or Canada.
Don't tell trump - he'll try to make 'em a state.  :D

For you, there is no reason. Only "faith." In another man. Because you are as spiritually dead as you are intellectually torpid.
Wrong, there were only two choices on the ballot......despite your wailing. Flip your coin and see how many times it lands another way.

This might be one of those times when the President has a gun put to his head by his superiors...?

Lots of comments about the LA fires coming in from pro Palestinians with the message that "What comes around, goes around".

**** around with imperialism nowadays and there are so many ways for your victims to seek revenge.

Accusing Mr. Kelly of the sniffing that YOU'RE doing merely exposes you, and the rest of the homosexual community, as an hysterical twat (rhymes with hat).

Hey Karen.....you keep hand wringing over nonsense....try to focus on common sense instead 

Pootin and Ukraine are unimportant sideshows....my concern is America and it's people.....it's normal people.  The **** stains like Pedo-Progs, LGBTPEDO and Pootin Sniffers should be at the bottom of of the social order....criminals should be treated in such a way that no sane person would even consider a criminal act.

Right. And I voted for Trump.

But that doesn't mean I cannot criticize his actions without you running your flappy ****** at me about supporting Kamala if I disagree with Trump, you moron. 

In fact, I have MORE standing to criticize him, specifically BECAUSE I voted for him. People who voted against him are of course going to dislike him - who cares what they say? They lost. The question is, did Trump's voters win...

I mean, I certainly did. This is popcorn fodder. I'm watching every possible moral claim the west can push going directly into the toilet, and the naked face of the beast being bared. Our president elect is threatening to take - TAKE - the territory of a NATO member-state. That would trigger Article 5. But we can't make war on ourselves. So, essentially, it would dissolve the NATO alliance. And that's alright with me.

So all that shrieking and lying about Putin - that was just hobby leftism?

You need to figure out ONE philosophy and go from there, you **** girl. STAND IN ONE SPOT, ya dancy ***.

All due respect.

He says acquiring Greenland is a matter of national security because it is a gateway for Russian and Chinese vessels. Thus, we can blow them up if our government feels like it. Have you noticed that the excuse is always "national security."  Every time we assert our military where we don't belong....it's because of national security. It's always that. 

Behind Trump’s threat: Why is Greenland so strategically important? | Donald Trump News | Al Jazeera
The issue BEHIND the myriad issues is this: How do Trump's threats regarding Greenland comport with the vaunted "Rules-Based Order" that the west has been enforcing, quite moralistically, since WWII? And where does this leave the E.U., in terms of their relationship to a bandit nation whose leader threatens the very rules based order it has been in charge of defending?

We have manipulated them out of their cheap Russian gas. We could never compete with Russia on price, so we had to knock Russia out of the game and seize their market through banditry, using Eunuchraine as a proxy and the E.U. leaders as bribed stooges. As a result, major cracks are showing in the E.U., with Orban of Hungary and Fico of Slovakia in open rebellion, threatening to sanction Eunuchraine for doing the U.S. bidding by shutting down the gas transit from Russia. 

And now we have the spectacle of Trump talking like a crazed third world despot, threatening an E.U. MEMBER, for **** sake. AN E.U. MEMBER STATE!!!

It's just so far out of the box that I don't know what to do except roll on the floor laughing my *** off. I knew the empire was coming unglued, but it looks like our crash and burn might be accompanied by some fine fiddle-work. 

Donnie rosin up your bow and play that fiddle hard,
The rules based order's over and the biggest ape runs the yard,
The competition's on the curb, we're sellin' Europe gas, 
We're takin' what the **** we want, let the E.U. kiss our ***...

Now Trump said my name's murca, and it might be a sin,
But the rules based order is gettin' old and we're puttin' it in the bin!

Fire in the polar region run boys run
Devil's in the house of the settin' sun.
Does E.U.'s dog bite, no, child, no!
Takin' over Greenland go boys go...

Do Trump's words tend to comport with, or tend to challenge, the rules based order and international law and our mutual defense treaties with Danmark?

Would seizing Greenland militarily trigger NATO's Article 5, essentially ENDING NATO?

:rolleyes:   :clap:  

The empire will suffocate without imperialism. 
The Oligarchs need new lands, resources to plunder.
All the US wars of the last 50 years are based on this fear.
And right now, they are in panic mode.

But they are absolute troglodytes about gay and trans rights and about doing whatever is necessary to see that marginalized minority voices are heard and respected.
Another empire has fallen into decadence.
All while denying that this is true.
