  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

We will have no problem in dealing with Danish pastry chefs, taco truck drivers or a bunch of drunken stone pushers. The world's resources belong to President Trump!

It was Pew. Our bordering neighbors Canada and Mexico see us as the threat. Denmark just emphasized their "shoot first, ask later" policy because Trump is threatening to militarily take over Greenland. There is no confirmation bias.
As we can see on CF, there are people in other countries who have Trump mania. That's what it is. Left-wing installed paranoia.

I agree with you that we need to mind our own business. However, is Trump trying to manage Greenland's and Denmark's personal affairs, or is he trying to establish a military stronghold for us which is in our best interest?
as we are not the only country on Earth if Denmark ( or any country for that matter) is not causing us any problems then we should not worry about what is in our "best interest" and rock the boat we are not the only country on Earth it is not always about what is in our best interest. If they are not causing any issues leave them be.

America wanting to establish a strategic foothold in Greenland doesn't have anything to do with Denmark along those lines. It's all about geographic location. That's why we have a military base on Guam. Location.

Except that if Denmark does not want us to have a stronghold there then it is none of our business. Remember, Guam is actually a U.S. territory Denmark does not wish for the US to maintain Greenland in that way which is part of the reason they are not selling.

Do you believe we are stronger by remaining in NATO?
Yes of course but I don't think NATO can handle Russia and China. Half of our team has been half stepping for a decade.

Maybe not, but I think they can handle the United States.

I think Trump is viewing it as brokering a real estate deal. "The sale begins when the customer says no".

We have a military base on Greenland already. Due to our cooperation with our close NATO ally Denmark.

They do not want to sell let it go do not take it by force. We are NOT the only people on Earth we do not have to be the greatest thing that has ever been.

I was pointing out that the US has a military base on Guam because of it's location. The location factor is the issue, not the base. Perhaps Denmark is just putting up a fuss to broker a better deal.

They are putting up a fuss because your president is insinuating that he's willing to use force to get control of Greenland.

I really doubt that Trump plans on taking Greenland by military force. Greenland isn't that important.
We are NOT the only people on Earth we do not have to be the greatest thing that has ever been.
So we should go hide in a corner?

you don't think the moves and threats the US is making gainst greenland kinda void such agreements. The US is trying to force a new deal or taking ove that no one but trump wants. And it's not about how many troops they have, it's about trump wanting to control greenland from Denmark, the US doesn't just get to take over other countries just because it wants too, regardless of what it thinks it can do in venezuela.
verbal threats do not void military and written agreements.
