“sable rattling”?
P
I VOTED for THIS!
Trump heard Denmark was drafting women—and he saw his opening.
Giving ageing Santa a way station from the North Pole this Christmas?
I had not heard anything about this intention, let alone the event. How did he do this without Denmark or the majority Greenland politicians stopping it?
I want my sables unrattled. I didn’t realize there was an outbreak.
The US relationship with Denmark has nothing to do with US military structure/organization. The relationship with Denmark is unchanged, as the original basing agreement is unchanged.
Lol!
Under command of the same command that controls the military in North America. Just another step to achieving Trump’s ultimate goal for Greenland, USA.
“I want my sables unrattled. “
Bob, I think your sables are already unrattled.
1. Expect the unexpected
2. Trump is always right.
Why would Greenland or even Denmark etc object to having the greatest military in the world protecting them?
considering USA has been offering to purchase Greenland since 1868 (Seward, and Truman in 1946) and in view of the defense needs, it is probably time to complete a deal. Denmark says it doesn’t want to sell but Dm can’t afford to maintain (or defend) it anyway. Also, any purchase price is pretty clearly going down, not up, with further delay and Dm most certainly realizes all of this. A quick face-saving deal will be good all around (with or without a Thule Trump Tower Resort Hotel and Golf Course-converted-into-an-ice rink)
It is essentially a US military administrative re-alignment.
The Northern Command and European Command fall within the internal structure of US military organization, not NATO or any foreign country.
He should create a Department Of Greenland Acquisition.
DOGA
Long overdue. U.S. European Command (EUCOM) “owned” Greenland for operational purposes, but it was physically behind EUCOM’s NATO/ Russia focus. It essentially was landlord for a slate of activities that supported NORTHCOM, STRATCOM, and SPACECOM, but were supporting efforts, at best, to EUCOMs priorities.
This move should have been made when they stood up NORTHCOM.
Denmark doesn’t get a vote.
This move designates USNORTHCOM to take the lead on all contingency plans dealing with Greenland. So it’s an orientation of the staff to start doing the work.
It’s no different than USCENTCOM having the responsibility to do the contingency planning for the withdrawal from Afghanistan......oh.....wait.
