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

Resources and military. You know, the normal reasons why someone wants to aquire new territory. History shows that despite a few purchase agreements, those acquisitions are usually aquired by force.

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.

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

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

I don't think European enviromaniacs are any different from ours...maybe worse. Not exactly; The Scandinavian Countries are nothing like the rest of Europe when it comes to this subject. Norway still hunts whales.

Resources and military. You know, the normal reasons why someone wants to aquire new territory. History shows that despite a few purchase agreements, those acquisitions are usually aquired by force. 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. https://www.kelownanow.com/news/new...a_of_their_province_joining_the_US_poll/Keith

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.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
