“If I don’t steal your home, someone else will steal it”

(For those OOTL, look up Yaacov Fauci)

These mfs are so full of shit.

    “The fact that they had a boat land there 500 years ago doesn’t mean they own the land”

    Do I even need to point out the hypocrisy of a US American saying that?

      I mean, Danish boats also landed in the future US territories at that time too so I guess it’s time for the US to be under Danish rule. Finally, some civility will arrive.

      He probably thinks that Alaska is on the far left and Russian is on the far right because he doesn’t understand globes.

    Greenland is not neighboring the US, it’s neighboring Canada.

    China or Russia can’t take over Greenland as they don’t have the power projection to do so, Greenland has a literal US base on it and Greenland is part of Denmark who is a member of NATO.

    Also a boat landed in the US 500 years ago too so that means the US doesn’t own the land either. Time to give it back to the Natives.

    Greenland is part of NATO. Russia attacking NATO is (was) equivalent of starting was with US and 31 other countries.

    US attacking Greenland will destroy NATO.

      The US attacking Greenland has got to be treason, right?

      The North Atlantic Treaty is a full on treaty ratified by congress, not just some rinkydink international “agreement” like the Paris climate accords. A ratified treaty supersedes all other state and federal law second only to the constitution.

      Article 5

      The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and…

      Now I’m no constitutional scholar, but I’m pretty sure that “all” means “ALL”. Wouldn’t an attack against Greenland be equivalent is the eyes of the law (whatever that’s worth nowadays) to an attack against the US, even if perpetuated by USians?

    and to top it off… if we don’t do it someone else will…

    Umm… isn’t that the whole point of these treaties… Literally the whole concept is superpowers behave with other developed nations because… all other nations are supposed to draw the line after one nation starts making signs of attacking. It’s literally what the lesson learned in the world wars was… was to band together, we did a really bad job for Russia/Ukrain, but I really hope the world actually takes some firm action if trump seriously moves forward.

    That child rapist is a dumb insufferable cunt. Why has no one taken him out…

    I have no idea on why you guys would vote him in once, let alone twice.
    I didn’t forget what a total cunt he was in his first term. And I judged the us population harshly for it. This second term is unforgivable. Just unforgivable. Generations of people will judge you on this, for either voting for him or enabling him by not voting at all. The majority of you are to blame for this.

    If he doesn’t want Russia as neighbor, he probably shouldn’t invade a country that has Russia as neighbor.

    „If we don‘t do it, someone else will!“ or „To stop evil we must be even worse!“

    Right out if the mass destruction/AI hype playbook. Villains love to use that excuse.
