News in the news is Trump wants to buy Greenland from Denmark. Does anyone know why?

He's said that before, Denmark isn't selling.

Apparently there is a lot of natural resources on ice free ground and under the ice

He's delusional-isn't going to happen

Resources and military. You know, the normal reasons why someone wants to aquire new territory.

So we can trap it.

History shows that despite a few purchase agreements, those acquisitions are usually aquired by force.

Wow now that would be something if they sold

President Donald Trump wants Greenland because adding just Canada to the US isn't enough.

Can buy greenland and the Atlantic provinces can secede and become the 50th something states....

Apparently Denmark's lease/agreement or whatever it is expiring soon. Maybe Greenland would want to become a territory or protectorate of the USA. I would hope they stay independent, the environmentalists in the US would want to shut down resource development if we got a hold of it.

You're not American. You're opinion doesn't count.

^^^^^this^^^^^^ LOL

I don't think European enviromaniacs are any different from ours...maybe worse.

Lol

I don't know how tough Greenland would be, but our Salvation Army is all we'd need to take Canada.

They wouldn’t do it as long as Trump is in charge. Do they allow trapping in Greenland?

Not exactly; The Scandinavian Countries are nothing like the rest of Europe when it comes to this subject. Norway still hunts whales.

Overall, 40% of Canadians between 18 and 34 want to join the US and over half of Canadian men in that age range want to join the US. That makes an entirely peaceful, mutually beneficial union likely. The fact that most Canadian fighting age men want to join the US, precludes the use of force being necessary.

Just send a nasty letter in French and English and they'll fold.

You would be way over your head trying to take Greenland by force,let alone Canada.
You were sent packing by stone age camel humpers for crying out loud.
You are way too soft.

If 37 death row inmates and Hunter Biden can get pardons maybe Marty can too?

We can just send the Canadian state snipers , because statistically, being young Canadian men, most of them want to join the US.

Keith

Newsflash-nobody in the world wants to join the US.

That's not what Canada's leading new organizations, polls and populace say. A very significant percentage of Canadians want to join the US. That fact is indisputable.

Keith

Boco is always predictable, no doubt about that.

That aside, the question remains........why would anybody want to?\\

And falling down funny, Iceland is way "greener" than Greenland, which is said to be mostly a big sheet if ice.

Think Greta Thunberg!

Think about it.... with global warming it won't be long before Greenland will be like Florida

Coming from the Guy that thought Ukraine was going to have Russia whipped two years ago

Reads like Putin's propaganda on why he was justified to attack Ukraine. They wanted him to invade.

Seems the 20 Million illegals crossing the southern boarder want to join.

The huge difference, which was better covered in the other thread that went poof, is that the Canadians will soon vote to peacefully join the US. There will be no force involved because it's what the majority will want.

Keith

Wish there was a logical way to combine Canada and the US and make two separate countries. The USC Socialist Republic and the something like the the Free Territories of North America
The socialists get all the illegals.

Newsflash-they are taking over your country not joining you singing kumbaya,lol.

They did a an on the street interviews with the avg Canuck on the news a couple nights ago about Trump suggesting (disrespecting) that We would want to be a part of the States.
The answers were unequivicall and unanimous-No way in ____ even if it froze over.

https://www.kelownanow.com/news/new...a_of_their_province_joining_the_US_poll/

“The appeal of a province joining the United States varies greatly by age,” says Mario Canseco, President of Research Co. “While only 10% of Canadians aged 55 and over perceive benefits, the proportion rises to 27% among those aged 35-to-54 and to 40% among those aged 18-to-34.”

Over half of Canadian men aged 18 to 34 want to become Americans.

"The notion of a province benefitting from becoming the 51st State resonates most in Alberta (30%), followed by Saskatchewan and Manitoba (29%), Ontario (also 295), Quebec (24%), Atlantic Canada (24%) and British Columbia (18%)."

Keith

Nobody wants to become an American.its why you get thrown out of every country you try to take over.
We threw you out of here twice already and will keep on doing it until you learn your lessons.

Over half of Canadian, military age young men want to be American. If the Canadian people get their way, Canada will be a few US states in less than 10 years.

Keith

Boco's dad is tougher than your dad.

Free Marty!!!!!

Buddy of mine and I were comparing our tours of duty in '73/ 74, mine in Korat, Thailand, his at Thule AFB, Greenland. Thought I had seen a few pretty ladies 'til he shared there was a girl behind every tree around Thule.

Since when is there trees in Greenland, lol

There you guys go.
Boco was sitting real nice under his bridge not bothering anybody, probably frost tanning a coyote hide or something, and you guys go to poking sticks at him. Getting him all riled up. Making him growl and holler.

For us guys that don't want to go to the far reaches of the Artic hunting, think musk ox.

big bosomed blondes is enough for me

Most assuredly not, my pops would whoop his britches til all ya seen was a flannel onesie…

No way. You are forgetting Americans are getting soft, and the war of 1812 and such.

And Vietnam was a big embarrassment too.

Yep, that's what happens when politicians run a war
