[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Russia and China are trying to get it and if they do its a threat to us.[/quote]

Greenland is part of NATO. The US has a military base there - and used to have six. Which they are welcome to reestablish. Absolutely no one in NATO is denying the American military access to Greenland. The US could put 100,000 troops in Greenland to counter Russia and it would be absolutely fine.

There is zero strategic need to violently take over Greenland. The US already has everything they need from Greenland. [/quote]

On the other hand, if we try to take over, it would destroy NATO and the US would almost certainly face sanctions at the very least, if not armed hostility with our former allies - which would leave Russia and China with a lot more leeway to do whatever the heck they want.  If China wants to retake Taiwan (and its chip factories) or Russia wants to retake parts of Alaska separated from the lower 48 by a hostile Canada, we’re not going to have any friends to help us do anything about it.  For that matter, we might have trouble holding unto our other European bases which have been so critical in troop support and rapid deployment, whether because we get evicted or captured.

[b]In short, attacking Greenland would strengthen the strategic position of Russia and China, destabilizing the balance of power and be a crippling blow to our national security.  I can only guess that such suggestions come from foreign actors.[/b][/quote]

Yup. These folks are working for Russia and China. How have white Americans not figured this out yet? [/quote]
