[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we get back to Greenland?

Denmark is being unreasonable here. Denmark does not need Greenland for its national security, as the missile threat from Russia to Denmark does not pass over Greenland. (Not to mention, the United States has provided security for Denmark for the last 80 years.)

Denmark is a tiny country located on a different continent entirely and is not capable of establishing a missile defense system to protect the United States.

The USA cannot spend the required trillions on a missile defense system in Greenland in to protect America if that system is contingent on the permission of another country.

Denmark doesn't need Greenland. We've been standing up defending the Free World for decades and now that we need something to protect ourselves our so-called "ally" is denying us. Make it make sense. [/quote]

Let's be clear here, Vlad...the US has been able to do what it wants and need from a security standpoint for decades. There is no reason for the US to bully its way to buying or taking Greenland. It has, by treaty, been under Denmark's pervew. The people who live there are happy with the status quo. NATO is happy with the status quo. It is only Russia and Trump who disagree. This is simply no reason to break up the international order that has kep the peace for 80+ years. IOW, there is already missile defense there to the US satisfaction. Denmark is part of NATO, so there is already an alliance between the countries where a national security arrangement is concerned.

Denmark provided troops, arms, plans and lives under Article V of the NATO charter. Anyone who supports this supports the type of international bullying that the US has held in check since the end of WW2. Sadly, if Trump follows through with this, it will be catastrophic for the US economy and radically change the lives of every American going forward, and not for the better.[/quote]
