That would make the situation in the world much more        JP> uncertain.               JP> The question is whether the American military apparatus would agree to        JP> a hostile annexation of Greenland. After all, they know that the entire        JP> world order is going to change and the question is whether the people        JP> in the army and the navy will agree to this. Trump is playing with fire        JP> by now putting NATO cooperation at risk. After all, he is also playing        JP> with the lives of those staff.               Annexing an ally appears to be one of those illegal orders we keep        wondering if the military will follow. The US regime must feel like        they've purged enough of those loyal to the oath.               JP> These are no longer jokes and could literally lead to open war with the        JP> US. It's hard to imagine, but taking Greenland is an act of war that        JP> cannot go unanswered. Militarily speaking, Europe cannot now make a        JP> strong stand against the US, but that situation is going to change. If        JP> the US becomes isolated, its enormous hegemony will soon be over. They        JP> literally can no longer afford that enormous navy. While Europe is        JP> arming itself to hit both Russia and the US. Whenever that war comes.               It'd be interesting to see what happens with US bases in Europe if the        US occupies a NATO state.               JP> It is crystal clear for Canada that it is their turn after Greenland.        JP> Canada is thus becoming the Ukraine of North America. I therefore have        JP> some advice for Canada.               JP> Don't buy the F-35s, but much more importantly: look at North Korea and        JP> develop its own nuclear weapons very quickly, because that is the only        JP> way you can stop the US.               I think we've effectively killed off our military export trade.                                    --- MultiMail/Win v0.52        * Origin: http://realitycheckbbs.org | tomorrow's retro tech (1:218/700)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 102/401 103/1 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 214/22 218/0 1 215 601 700 810       SEEN-BY: 218/840 860 880 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 134 206 275 300       SEEN-BY: 229/307 317 400 426 428 470 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 301/1 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848       SEEN-BY: 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 218/700 229/426           |
