Utopia Talk / Politics / Should the US take Greenland?

rank | Sun Jan 04 14:59:43 Why not? The Danes can't defend it. The US has strong interests in the country. Nobody will do anything. The Europeans will make some lame statements about international law (which no longer exists) and call for restraint (which is unnecessary) since the US can take Greenland in principle without force or with very restrained force. Some people in Europe may write an angry tweet, but in two weeks everyone will carry on and forget about it. So, the US should probably go ahead and take it. I mean, it just sits there in the ocean anyway, a very large island with a very tiny population of only 56k people, and its closer to USA than to Denmark. |

The Melians: And how, pray, could it turn out as good for us to serve as for you to rule? The Athenians: Because you would have the advantage of submitting before suffering the worst, and we should gain by not destroying you." -Thucydides |

Katie Miller, the wife of White House deputy chief of staff, Stephen Miller, had posted an image to social media that showed the American flag overlaid on the outline of Greenland. Miller's post, which came after U.S. action in Venezuela, included the map with the word "SOON." http://x.c...h-ambassador-response-11304613 |
