Mineral wealth. Strategic important. Just that China or Russia wanting it should be enough to make us want it as well.

Greenland has a lot of valuable minerals.

The idea of using our military on it is ridiculous.

Origin of the Phrase Stir the Pot

“Stir the pot” is a phrase with its roots in the literal act of stirring a cooking pot. When cooking something in a giant pot, you have to stir it to keep the ingredients from sinking to the bottom and sticking. Stirring causes everything to rise to the surface and bump together; it also helps release flavors.


taste the flavor.........................

“..Question: What does Greenland have that we would want?...”

Outside of strategic defense value, I thought I read somewhere that Greenland has deposits of rare earth minerals that right now, we can only get from pedoJoe’s and their mighty odongo’s best buds in China.

ICBM’s would fly over the Arctic Circle to strike America. Russia and China are expanding their presence in the Arctic. Potential oil and mineral wealth.

Its location is strategic militarily. Better us than China.

Greenland is rich in the minerals required for the advancing AI and it is a strategic stronghold to help protect from China and Russia attacks. And the people of Greenland are big time MAGA.

Dishonest headline by scumbag fake-journalist .

He said he’s “not going to commit to that” in response to a compound question that included using peaceful options, such as economic incentives.

Only a lying, Trump-hating scumbag would infer from his response that he was prepared to use military force on Greenland.

Think about the North Pole and the north seas. Looking at a 2D map it seems unimportant but if you look at a globe you can see how Greenland would be strategically important to the entire northern hemisphere. It’s easier to reach any country from the North Pole than laterally across continents.

Also it has rare minerals and the like.

We don’t have to own it, just get them to align with us. Trump said he won’t rule out military but that doesn’t mean he would use it. He just doesn’t think it’s wise to take gambits off the table when negotiating. You never know which way things will turn especially if Russia or China decide to make moves. But he obviously thinks it’s important for the future.

Trump is talking about a lot of things to realign order, particularly the Americas. He wants an economic union with Canada to make totally free trade and currency parity. That’s a good idea. He wants to control the Panama Canal. And he wants to stretch our reach and reduce strike time.

“...change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the ‘Gulf of America’.”

LOLOL. Of course!

When I worked in South America in the mid 70s, I learned that many there were deeply offended by me saying “I am from America.” They considered themselves “Americans,” too. So the “Gulf of America” would be very inclusive of both North and South America. Amerigo would be pleased. I always liked that name.

What does Greenland have that we would want?


1. Control of the Arctic.
2. Blocking a Chinese take over.
3 Vast untapped mineral resources.
4. Untapped fisheries.
