The Chinese and Russians are the ones who have been actually invading portions of Greenland
Fkn Chinese have been trying to weasel their way into Greenland for years.
They tried to build an airport, tried to expand seafood export business, tried to expand mining, tried to add to population with Chinese immigrants.
The Greenlanders want the investments because it means income and the Chinese will overspend. We need to nip this shite in the bud now.
The Russians don't have the money, but they would piggyback off their Red friends if given the chance, making Greenland a viable threat to the Continental U.S.

I promise you they would pull their weapons and do exactly what everyone else does that wants to see the next day, hand them to the US soldier.
Every time we go somewhere, it’s their families at risk. The game is on a different level than what we imagine here.

We lose all power authority over the middle east and much of africa without NATO. The boomers on here don't understand how supply chains work though.

All 4 of them?

You'd think Canada would support Greenland becoming a US territory. If the Chinese get their grips into there it becomes a staging point for any invasion of the Continental USA, and where would they come right through? Canada. We'd meet that threat far before our border and Canada would become the battlefield. Why would they want that?
The USA has been protected by two great oceans. Greenland is important to keep it that way, as is our doctrine that the Americas are off limits. We can't back down on this, Venezuela, Brazil, any of it.

Canada is our bitch. We aren’t letting some Chinese pimp take our girls and work our corner.
Canadians believe they are autonomous, good luck with that.

It's a good thing we now have the rules of engagement set.

We’d have the 101st airborne or an MEU already holding the Airports before they knew we were there. Then the C-5s would land with armor.

Why are you assuming that Canada wouldn’t side with the CCP?

Are we really at a point where we’re going to throw away the world order that made the US one of the greatest superpowers we’ve ever seen over a place that’s owned by an ally of ours where we already have a military presence?
When article 5 was triggered, Denmark sent troops to Afghanistan who died fighting alongside us. They honored their alliance with us, is it too much too ask that we show civility and respect to long time allies?

Having the USA control the most strategic point in North America is better than having it become another frozen Venezuela controlled by communist Chinese and Russians.

They’re our ally. The only reason China would take it over is if they don’t think we would guarantee its sovereignty and honor our alliance.
And I’m sorry, if we go to war with Russia, having Greenland will not matter. The US Navy goes where it pleases. Do you think if Russia pulled some shite Denmark wouldn’t let us do what we need? Not that it would matter cause it’d be nuclear war regardless.

Exactly what I was thinking.
And that was with Chinese telecom and military equipment.

I think you've got that backwards.
The US dictated the world order, the world order didn't dictate the destiny of the US.
Yeah, we benefitted greatly from the aftermath of WWII and that was happenstance, but at least since the 80s the US has pretty much driven the boat.

Art of the Deal
Get Denmark thinking we are going to invade so when we come with a monetary offer, albeit a lowball, it seems like its to good to pass up.

So you’re saying we no longer benefit? Souring US ties with the entirety of Europe would have no negative effects? No consequences?

Preach. We’re stronger by having Europe as allies. Largest trading partner, historical ties… they supported us in blood after 9/11.
Squandering that for what? So we can feel tough in our own neck of the woods? We already are that dude.
Who benefits from us making this play? Is it ego/legacy? Russia/China with the so-called spheres of influence?
This shite has a good chance to backfire if we overplay our hand. Doesn’t mean we’ll lose a world war (at least at first), but the outcomes don’t justify the risk.
Yeah we make Maduro look like a bitch; that was good. But talking about stealing the country’s resources as if they are ours? fricking with talk about invading an allies territory that will trigger Article 5?
We need to chill out for a sec and stop acting like the world is ours to consume. We’re acting like a drunk at the bar right now.
