They have oil in their backyard and China controls most of the world’s rare earths which are also used in military equipment.

Setting aside that there's no way we're "attacking" fricking Denmark, your certainty of failure amuses me. What if the resource-rich manufacturing behemoths don't have electricity or running water? How do they process the rare earths? How do they refine the oil? How do they manufacture anything?

That strategy simply has no chance of working.

Really? Zero percent?

I'm going to buy land after the takeover and I'll be set when the poles reverse, or stop motion, or whatever the hell they are doing.

China can’t feed itself. Russia needs more of a market than just China. Why would Europe trust and cooperate with Russia? Europe would still fear a Russian invasion.

Japan is our ally. Lots of countries in SE Asia don’t like China. India doesn’t like them.

We can isolate them both. Good luck munching down on rare earths and oil.

They gonna get out their Viking long boats from the museums and counter invade if we roll in?

Maybe they can get their recent immigrants to show them how to make a raft and set out to give us a stern talking to.

You think China hasn't made any moves because it fears the retaliation of the European countries? Or Canada ?

I suspect this threat is equivalent to the people that have an annual tradition of announcing that they are done watching the NFL.

Good Lord, even Trump is not dumb enough to invade another NATO country’s territory.

It is going to be a process where the people of Greenland decide that they prefer to be aligned with the USA, not Denmark.

Trump is not even going to negotiate with Denmark. He is going to negotiate with the population of Greenland
