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.

The fact that we are even having this conversation just boggles my mind.
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.
