eh, I don’t think so, unfortunately. I am convinced it’s a legitimate bid
Comment on Well we certainly aren't talking about the Epstein files.

They have no intention of taking over Greenland. It’s all bullshit to distract from the Epstein files, and it worked.

Is that why they’re meeting with Denmark to talk about taking over Greenland?

Yes, it’s part of the distraction and working like a charm on you.

I believe they want a huge military base in Greenland one way or the other
JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
The US could have negotiated and easily gotten that base at any point. The only reason to take this loud and aggressive tact is to make noise and distract.

They had multiple bases that they all gave up years ago. With the Arctic opening up due to climate change greenland is extremely valueable again so they want their influence back. I think even have one last base in the north.
