He is at it again: trump wants plans to attack Greenland

[Samofvt]

What did he get?

Denmark can not hold that territory. I'm sorry.

No, they will not become a state in 70 years. It should be an international preserve. Only 50 or 60 thousand people there now. How about Purteo Rico if you want to consider statehood?

What did he get?

Not to ******* much.

Looked it up. All the sources do seem to be from early January. But we are still in January. So it is relevant. And Trump can do a 180 on anything he has said. There is no way we can trust anything the man says.

They are reporting on the Daily mail story from January 10th, it appears

I could be wrong, as Trump has been known to lie, and could have been lying 7days ago at Davos. But there is no new DailyMail story on the subject, and the MSN piece keeps referencing the DailyMail story

According DailyMail.com, Trump has asked the Joint Special Operations Command to draft an invasion plan, though the Joint Chiefs of Staff are pushing back over concerns it would be illegal and unsupported by Congress.

“The generals think Trump’s Greenland plan is crazy and illegal,” a source said.

“So they are trying to deflect him with other major military operations. They say it’s like dealing with a 5-year-old,” the insider added.

Someone needs to do something with this guy. He is either losing his mind or Putin is upset that he hasn't killed NATO yet. If he tries to invade Greenland, his presidency is over. Even repubs admit that. A five year old indeed. Only in a failing 79 year old body.

/—-/ The military plans for all possible contingencies. If they didn’t you’d be the first to twist your panties in a knot.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

It is called preparedness.

It's called the left is making up shit again.

 

[drudge X]

If true, which is probably made up by some leftist rag tag site, Trump wants to throw Europe off for brown nosing China.

Understandable. I am just trying to interdict group think in the age where known media reporters might be writing new Hard News stories based on conversation with an AI. I don't like Trump and do not trust trump, but this story from media reporter Isabella Torregiani write a piece for MSN, has an aged twangy aroma with not new story from any hard news reporting organization. It is doubtful the Media reporter got the hard news first. Is all I am saying.

Any mining company in the world can get immediate access to Greenland. They don't bother because it cost way to much to create the infrastructure. It's also the reason oil companies are leaving Venezuela alone

I guess you've all been conditioned just to hate Trump.

You call for him to take hard action against Putin and the fight him when he wants to put in missle defense against Russia when he does.

He acquired military base access to Greenland and that is exactely what needs to be done.

/-----/ The US has the expertise to extract the rare earth material. We invented oil drilling, discovered oil reserves in the Middle East, and invented fracking. I'll leave it to the experts to determine how and when it will be done.

The reason oil companies are leaving Venezuela alone is that they were screwed over once, and it's uncertain if it will happen again once they get the wells back online.

• Rebuilding the industry would require a decade of work and $80 billion–$100 billion in investments, according to analysts—and that assumes political stability.

Having oil reserves doesn’t mean you can easily produce it for the world’s markets. Most of Venezuela’s crude is extra-heavy oil, closer in consistency to asphalt than gasoline

The Mystery of Venezuela's Oil: Why the World's Largest Reserves Are Barely Being Pumped

Venezuela sits on more barrels of oil than Saudi Arabia. So why does it pump less than 1% of the global supply?

So True. Also it's crap oil and costs more to extract. Basically they have to mine it or treat it to get it out of the ground. Like you said the companies have no guarantee the Venezuelan government wouldn't screw then over again.

/—-/ I don’t disagree, but there’s money to be made . Remember Venezuela was the wealthiest nation in South America 20 years ago and it was thanks to oil. It’s great for asphalt.

One story I read compared that oil to asphalt

To mine those minerals everything has to be built from scratch. The first would be a port to bring in everything else needed to build a mine. The mines are not next to communities in Greenland otherwise someone might have already built one. Remember it's the mining companies who decide where to build their mines and none of them could be bothered too.

What kind of missiles would that base be defending against?

Around 70 years ago your country started to learning how to defend yourselves against Nuclear Ballistic Missiles and I'm pretty sure they are able to do it now. How is it no one in your government or military ever brought up the need to build anything in Greenland over the past 70 years.

or to build battleships

or a golden dome

 

[TheGreatSatan]

The plan is to flood Greenland with American immigrants, then out vote them in all their elections.

/----/ Not sure what you're talking about or what is so funny. Venezuelan oil—not Greenland.

Venezuelan Oil​

Venezuelan oil, particularly heavy crude, is a critical feedstock for asphalt manufacturing. The recent reductions in crude oil export prices have significantly impacted the bitumen and asphalt sectors, especially in Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. Major construction firms and road-paving enterprises are closely monitoring these developments, as they directly influence production costs, storage strategies, and regional trade flows. Venezuela's decision to reduce export prices is a strategic response to shifting global demand and competition from suppliers in the U.S. Gulf Coast and the Middle East.

The world can survive a moderate nuclear exchange with Europe receiving more of it than other including the United States. With the United States receiving it, the game is over.
