There is a joint Canada/US navel base 20 minutes from my house. There are a group of very small Islands close to my house that have military equipment on them. You can see lights flashing at night.

Arresting members of the US military you be a big blow to trump.

I feel the same, it feels like we're living in Lala land, none of this makes sense.

At first I thought it was all hyperbole, and Trump joking around. NATO sending troops isn't cheap, so the fact that they're doing this gives credence that this threat is being treated as legitimate and real.

They don't seed to sent a ton. Attacking any NATO troops crosses the line. attacking even 1 British soldier means the US is declaring war.

Privately / within the NATO-minus-US countries, I'm sure everyone is viewing the Trump-led US as a legitimate national security threat. But on the outside, EU troops deployment to Greenland is the perfectly logical rebuttal to Trump's claim that the US needs Greenland bcos of national security reasons. By showing that the EU is comitted to securing Greenland against foreign threats, in a logical world, that would have been reason enough for the Trump-led US to back off on its annexation claims.

Of course, in a normal logical world, if the US is legitimately concerned about Greenland being taken over by Russia or China, then it should have been the first country to deploy more troops to its US bases on Greenland.

As a Canadian, I feel so bad for Greenland and its residents. What they are going through right now is literally the 51st state BS, version 2 all over again, and the risks of things breaking out of control is even higher than our 51st state annexation claims.

So help me to understand .. Trump and the US wants to conduct military strikes in Iran because they are oppressive against the protesters. And in the US, Trump wants to send in the army to Minnesota and declare a state of insurrection (martial law) and quash the peaceful protests against ICE?

Q: So would Iran be justified in sending military strike to Minnesota on ICE and US National Guards for being oppressive to protesters?

^None of it makes sense my friend

I thought Trump's one single defining feature was no wars? The guy is a standard neocon bastard like all these Republican pricks, there's nothing new here.

Iran has always been on these guy's bucket list.

I know the US military is large, but it seems like they're going to end up spread pretty thin if all of these things actually kick off at the same time.

1. US invades Greenland, NATO collapses. No one will declare war on US.
2. US allies with Russia, splits Ukraine and pillages resources under guise of peace.
3. Russia conscripts Ukrainians and moves military troops to their West. EU forces have to strengthen their Eastern front, even if Russia doesn't invade. Europe cannot risk getting into war with Russia while potentially getting backstabbed by the US.
4. US and Isreal attack Iran under guise of regime change and pillages resources.
5. Angered by Carney's deal to allow Chinese EVs into Canada, US rolls over the border and makes Canada it's 51st state. EU is too tied up in Europe to come to Canada's aid.
6. With the majority of the World's oil reserves under US/Russia + friends' control, an EU-China alliance is created to combat Axis of Evil 2.0

If boots on the ground are needed, DJT calls up his buddy KJU to use North Korean troops. The US also kidnaps Venezuelans, Canadians, and Iranians to send to front lines. ICE will be given bonus commissions for every non-white person they kidnap to send to front lines.

7. DJT crowns himself King of America and lives to 120. Baron inherits the throne.

Quote:
U.S. President Donald Trump said Saturday that he would charge a 10 per cent import tax starting in February on goods from eight European nations because of their opposition to American control of Greenland, setting up a potentially dangerous test of U.S. partnerships in Europe.

Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland would face the tariff, Trump said in a social media post while at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida. The rate would climb to 25 per cent on June 1 if no deal was in place for "the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland" by the United States, he said.

The Republican president appeared to indicate that he was using the tariffs as leverage to force talks with Denmark and other European countries over the status of Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark that he regards as critical to U.S. national security.
I think tariffs have last any power they had. Even hardcore conservatives don't understand whats going on.

Yeah the problem with so many tariffs is that the more they're used, the more countries will try to expand their trade elsewhere, diminishing their.impact over.time

Galumph threatening to tariff countries who doesn't side with US on their attempt to take over Greenland.

At this point, I really hope Trump has a fatal heart attack.
