Not a word.
Carry on .. even as things become more apparent you still refuse reality.
It is what it is.
Oh boy I really don't want to get into the lesbian that tried to murder an ICE officer online, the offline debates are enough on that topic.
Lol I won't be but frankly seeing as we could militarily conquer Greenland using paintball guns like I might be inclined to lie about my age and feel young again for such an adventure.
There's enough video without it. I know there's a topic on here for it, I have not read it. It is genuine news, it is hot news too, but yea, since I hear it offline too much and also other online politics/news circles, like nah, you don't want my input about this and I don't really wanna get stuck on it with so much more exciting news happening at the moment. The geopolitics of late is way hotter and more of my interest personally.
I think you just assumed I was referencing the shooting when I was meaning the ICE agents tracking down drug cartel like we were told. I just thought it was funny that Trump could show everyone Hispanics dressed in bluejeans driving used cars and tell them they were the ones selling hundreds of millions of dollars in drugs and they would fall for it.
We could hit Russian soil already and they can't hit US, hilariously to this end by buying Greenland we'd ironically then come within range of Russia's molding crappy missiles. Greenland has numerous benefits, don't think any one of them is like a conspiracy, you also have to think like Russian Federation might not even exist much longer at which point that be an entirely mooted point to buying Greenland. Acquiring Greenland is more akin to Seward and his Alaska Purchase and his grander vision of America in a modernizing world. The immediate strategic location and as a sorta stepping stone to Europe moreso than Russia. If the europeans were more positive it could be maybe even a special zone to experiment and try to blend EU and USA and thus strengthen NATO and but USA and EU actually. There's always the potential for raw resources are obvious motivators, but that's like low hanging fruit, our vision is higher, we're more interested in the factor of development, a way longer game, much like how Alaska developped into becoming a state, and not just a state, but a truly successful polar region place to inhabit. There are all sorts of future potentials Greenland provides. It's a long play, it's a play that says Ameica intends be around for a while. It's where Denmark doesn't want to give it up because it's a tacit admission that their empire is dead, but you know what their empire is dead regardless, and it's been long dead at that, they cannot actualy manage Greenland much less can they ever develop it the we USA could do it easily.
The assumption came from you mentioning Minnesota specifically with ICE, hence why I figured since admittedly it is the kinda hottest news story I hear offline. My bad for the assumption.
I would look a little closer at the geographic location of Greenland because it's up and over by Canada almost inline with the US east coast so it's not a stepping stone to Europe it's about the same distance from the US or Greenland to Europe. It is though about 3000 miles from Russia and could be used as a stepping stone to Russia.
Absurd. If Trump wanted a shooting war.........The assassination attempts would have never happened.
After 3 seconds of a shooting war......The Dems/left would be back in their moms basement with dirty diapers that need changing.
Lol we don't need a stepping stone to Russia because we didn't actually lie about our superweapons and their maintenance like the Russians do lol. But yea I mean yea it has that benefit too. That's not the primary motivation though even for strategic location. For strrategic location the stepping stone to Europe is better for actually more peaceful or economic reasons. The strategic location and history of Greenland could also make a US acquisition possible for the USA to participate in EU or qualify for some special status within the EU. This is really the more tantalizing possibility which I notice that few of the talking heads in Europe or even admittedly on our side are talking about. This also makes sense why with EU bad attitude and rejection and slanders that justifies why Trump put tariffs upon them, and imo, he should raise them as well. Greenland could be a very positive experiment blending USA and EU, or become a sort of portal between USA and EU. However maybe the EU was never interested in being a real partner they just thought they'd leash America and let America do all the bullying for them at their whim. Perhaps the EU was created specifically to spite the USA, so yea, tariff them, they need to be made to contribute.
That is not a bad idea. Let's fight these wars with paintball guns. That way we can decide who wins without anyone getting killed.
Lets say you leave Norfolk Virginia and go to Pituffik Greenland (2,750 miles) and then from Pituffik Greenland to Israel,(4,100 miles) so about 6,850 miles. Then again if you just go from Norfolk Virginia to Israel it's about 7,000 miles so your only shortening the distance by about 150 miles. It's because you have to go up to Greenland and then back down to enter the Mediterranean Sea to get to Israel. Or you could just go straight from Norfolk to Israel.
I don't really get what Israel has to do with it, but sure, side benefits, that's what I'm meaning. It's not like we're going to blow billions of dollars on Greenland just to shorten the trip to Israel by like a half hour, but I mean if that's a benefit in an overall grander vision, so we'll take it.
I just used Israel as an example the distance would change depending on the exact cities your departing from and the destination. By sea is going to be different than by air also. It's because the globe is round or flat depending on which forum your in, . I think it's round after plotting trips on the water and it being different than as the crows fly lol.
Which brings us also the scientific and exploration value of Greenland too. Regardless of the true shape, scientists and nerds and pioneers and explorers can do a lot with Greenland. Though that's a little tongue in cheek, seriously think about it, again comparing to Seward's very forward thinking purchase of Alaska that was similarly kind of laughed at or seen as scandalous in his time, but obviously has provided a wealth of scientific and ecological value to the USA in a long term sense.
