  • Trump weighs using U.S. military to acquire Greenland: White House

    From cnbc.com

    President Donald Trump and his team are considering “a range of options” in order to acquire Greenland — including “utilizing the U.S. Military,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNBC on Tuesday. The statement further escalates the Trump administration’s already aggressive rhetoric about Greenland, which the president has long sought to make a part of the United States. Trump said Sunday that the U.S. needs the Arctic island for national security purposes, pointing to Russian and Chinese activities in the region. Greenland is a territory of Denmark, which, like the U.S., is a member of ... (full story)

Let’s call it what it is : Land acquisition . He wants to expand the colony. Trumps making the US as popular as Israel with his aggression . MAGA !
Couple years back, a Danish intelligence analyst found out that NSA spied on all European leaders, including Merkel and the Danish prime minister - not through mass capture of meta data, but targeted. It was apparently done through the under sea cable network.

He went to his bosses but was ignored, even after a power struggle within the intelligence. Due to his patriotism and the lack of options, he decided to become a whistle blower, he found a Danish news-paper and went public anonymously.

This became huge news! I think there was also staged protests in Denmark outside the US embassy.

The cowardly Danish government, perhaps under this same lady today, instead of appreciating the seriousness of the matter, they actually jailed the whistleblower. The details are blurry in my head, but I recall he got a lengthy jail sentence, 10 years +

He was charged under treason and espionage. they even put him in solitary confinement!

They did not even condemn the espionage as far as I recall and they jailed this poor patriot because he embarrassed them.

US can take Greenland without force.

The USA has the option to increase it's military presence in Greenland without having to take over - it shut 15 bases there in the not too distant past. I suspect it's much more to do with plundering the mineral wealth than military security. The US under Trump is fast becoming the most hated country on the planet, but I guess many wont give a shit as long as they can take whatever they can from whoever they care to take it from. One day they might just wish they had some allies left.
Security against who? Canada? or Russia?

Russia are collaborating with Indians and Chinese to extract their own immense natural resource wealth, which is more than they can chew.

Its about balancing the books so the USD dont become insolvent and the money printing can continue for a couple more years, if not for this reason, they could collaborate with Denmark and extract the wealth as partners instead of stealing from their vassals.

If there were not money problems, they would have shut down those bases.

There is no benefit to Americans with being in NATO. Get rid of it and take Greenland and whatever else you want. No one can stop it. Let the rest of NATO take care of itself without the US paying for everything.
Quite the choice now. All those American troops in Europe get to decide where to go next. Maybe malaria infested Venezuela or cold as fuck Greenland. I wish them luck. No more October fest.
