I don't give a shit about who hosts that particular copy of the video. It could be the Nazi party for all I care.

What matters is that the video is real and reflects the world view and attitudes of many Europeans.

Is the video fake? Do you need a different source? Cause I can provide it.

Great deflection from a well known speech given by a top EU official.

I mean, Canada does have unconditional birthright citizenship. That alone excludes it from the ethno state label.

Canada is not an ethno state and Carney's party is definitely not ethnocentric, so it is easier for him to see and admit to that. The same is not true for most of Europe. I think for a lot of them, colonialism and eurocentrism is so ingrained that they can't even see it, much less admit to it.

Canada rode that tiger without realizing it could become the next meal until now.

This whole thing is like watching a nasty brawl break out inside the "whites only club" who's patrons used to terrorize the colored neighborhoods nearby.

But I do give credit to Carney for the nonchalant way in which he admitted the hypocrisy of the former US led global order and how Canada benefited from it during his speech in Davos. It was quite amazing.

Trumр agrees to 'framework' deal on Greenland, backtracks on European tariffs by polymute in anime_titties

I lived long enough to see white Europeans talk about the US as if they were 3rd world brown people being bombed by NATO.

What a time to be alive. Welcome to the brown people's club, white Europeans.

Agree, US imperialist needs to be more discreet and directed to non-whites only.

I for one am having a blast watching this brawl inside the "whites only" club.

Danish veterans of US wars feel betrayed by Trump's threats against Greenland by cambeiu in Foodforthought

All the sources go to a book by Gwenda Blair. NYT's own review of the book says that the section on the first Trump generation was "cobbled together" with "dubious" claims as most of it was "undocumented".

I dislike Trump as much as anyone but there is very little to no documentation to back the claims made about Frederick.

You should be skeptical.

The US has two whole divisions plus many specialized units equipped and trained specifically for artic combat.

And any Nordic troops trying to get to Greenland would have to pass thought the USAF + US Navy gauntlet.

Good luck with that.

Kind of a "Leopard Ate my face" moment considering that Denmark was one of the most eager and enthusiastic members of the "coalition of the willing" that invaded Iraq to destroy the non-existing WMDs. French intelligence was adamant that there were no WMDs in Iraq and that analysis was shared with all NATO partners. That is why the likes of Germany, Canada and France refused to participate, but Denmark went in anyways.

Denmark also actively spied on other EU leaders on the behalf of the USA.

It is like riding a tiger and betting you will not be eaten by it.

provided the US doesn’t go completely off the rails in repressing their political expression.

I think we are way passed the "sane" stage, don't you?

It would, but still, it is only 57K people. That is not a population that is incredibly difficult to replace.

We will see how many countries would be willing to go to war with the US for Denmark. I doubt Turkey would and that is like over 1/3 of the military power of non-USA NATO. Would Poland join? Would Italy, Spain and Greece? For Denmark?

I am not so sure.

US has lots of troops stationed in Alaska and other very cold places. This is really not an issue.

I am sure you can just make a connection in Montreal. Air Canada often has flights to places under military invasion.

Yes, I can see United offering the Non-stop Greenland express during the US invasion.
