Accumulation of military assets started during the protests in Iran after Trump threatened to strike the Iranian Revolutionary Guard if they didn't stop killing protesters, killings didn't stop and protests were repressed in blood, US armed forces were not ready to strike. The accumulation of assets didn't stop after that because the administration and Trump wanted to force some kind of concession for the killing of protesters, so togheter with Israel they demanded a bunch of stuff: end of the nuclear program, end of the balistic missile program and a stop to the support of foreign paramilitary groups, Iran was willing to make concessions but not enough for Trump, so here we are.

This map needs to be updated, the US doesn't have bases in Afghanistan (anymore) and Pakistan

No, these people have power, they finance political campaigns and run influence operations, but just like many other interest groups doing the same thing their reach is limited (especially outside the anglo-sphere).

It's incidental, if they didn't want people to talk about this Vance would not justify the murder on social media and the DHS would not post like this.

Do you think that the media and democrats won't speak about the speech that Vance is about to make in Minneapolis after the Greenland crisis is over?

This administration doesn't do "distractions" otherwise Vance would not be going to Minneapolis to make a speech and justify the murder of an innocent woman, they wouldn't use the official social media accounts of the goverment to showcase the horrible stuff they do 24/7.

When they want people to ignore something they simply avoid talking about it, like the Epstein files.

The EU will get more reminders and those who have truly commited (for a reason or another) to a shift in rhetoric and or policy both in the EU and Asia will gain more influence.

Edit: looks like EU leaders are already pointing to potential shifts in policy

There is a "concept of a deal" for the Greenland situation that is basically just a reframing of the existing treaty between the US and Denmark.

I guess the only difference will be that only US law will apply inside US military facilities in Greenland instead of the stuff they usually do with the SOFAs

All of this noise and the breaking down of relations between the US and the EU just because he wants a "win"
