Greenland

Dear @Mongoose. You wrote: “Fetterman again showing is intellect is vastly superior to all other democrats”.

I think both yourself and Fetterman need both a geography lesson and a history lesson.

Starting with the history. Do you know who settled Greenland after 1000AD, with settlements known in Europe, enough for the Pope to appoint a Bishop to Greenland? Hmm? Iceland! And Iceland was settled by Scandinavians. And guess what? Iceland is a European nation. Much closer to Greenland than the United States.

Which brings us to the geography. Greenland is closer to the United States than Europe?

Gee, look how close Iceland(Europe) is to Greenland!

BTW, straight line flight distance of Greenland to the United States is 3053 miles.

You need both a geography and history lesson. And BTW, as a big anti-war guy, how do you feel about Trump launching a war against NATO? If I understand you, your high moral ground has always been how you hate war more than any human being alive.
 
There seems to be principle, one value associated with our nation’s own founding, that those who feel Greenland should actually belong to the United States have apparently abandoned: the right of people to self determination. The people of Greenland do not want to be bought or conquered by the United States. Do they, or do they not, have the right to self determination? Didn’t our founders say we had that right in 1776? I believe it’s safe to say Trump, the spineless Republicans who are unable to stand up to Trump, and, as seen in this thread, our Trump supporters, do not believe in the right of self determination. The people of Greenland do not have a say in the matter. To the cult of Trump, their right to self determination must be stripped from them, if Donald Trump says so.

Statement from Senate Foreign Relations Committee:


COPENHAGEN, Denmark – Today, U.S. Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Thom Tillis (R-NC), Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Senate NATO Observer Group, issued the following statement regarding the recent threat of tariffs on the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway:

“The United Kingdom, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway are America’s closest allies. They are our NATO Allies who have fought beside us, died alongside us and have made America safer and more prosperous.

"Over the course of our bi-partisan meetings with Danish and Greenlandic officials in Copenhagen, the message was resoundingly clear that Denmark and Greenland want to partner with the United States and advance our shared security goals, just as we have done for decades. There is no need, or desire, for a costly acquisition or hostile military takeover of Greenland when our Danish and Greenlandic allies are eager to work with us on Arctic security, critical minerals and other priorities under the framework of long-standing treaties. When we reconvene with our Senate colleagues, we will convey the perspectives shared by Danish and Greenlandic officials, as well as from the indigenous people who live the realities of Greenland every day.

"Continuing down this path is bad for America, bad for American businesses and bad for America’s allies. This kind of rhetoric also further helps adversaries like Putin and Xi who want to see NATO divided. Our allies deserve better, and so do the American people who have made their opposition to this flawed policy resoundingly clear. At a time when many Americans are already concerned about the cost of living, these tariffs would raise prices for both families and businesses. We urge the administration to turn off the threats and turn on diplomacy.”

Did you watch the video. I meant his ability to see that it isn’t an absurd idea for the US to control Greenland and it isn’t some scary thing that requires military force and war. He shuts down this propagandist “journalists” warmongering right away. Obviously you are completely captured by the warmongering ******* propaganda outlets because you have a tiny brain. Thanks for proving my point.
He also says that “Greenland is closer to North America than it is to Denmark in Europe” which it is you ****ing dope!
Greenland is closer to North America (it's only about 1,200-1,500 miles from the eastern U.S./Canada, and shares the North American tectonic plate) than to mainland Denmark (over 2,000 miles across the Atlantic). Thank you for proving my point once again how ****ing stupid democrats are. Thanks for the maps and all that dumb **** but when you literally change his words into something else entirely to make an idiotic point that is completely out of context you should feel like a ****ing idiot. As a Democrat you’re probably totally comfortable at this point feeling like the dumbest person everywhere you go. If you don’t feel that way, then you should, because you are really really ****ing stupid.
When you have to change the words of a mentally impaired person to make some silly idiotic point that nobody asked for you should reevaluate your ideas.

You meant to say Greenland in your second sentence, I believe.
