The United States has a history of forced and coerced sterilization of Native American women that primarily peaked in the 1960s and 1970s, as part of a broader eugenics movement and federal population control policies. These actions were often performed without informed consent, knowledge, or under duress by physicians within the federally-funded Indian Health Service (IHS). Pele Broberg, opposition leader in Greenland, is pushing for talks with the USA. Worth noting that not all Greenlanders approve of Denmark's role in it's former colony. Denmark's record in this regard, including the forced sterilisation of Inuit women up until 1953, has left an aura of resentment to this day.

This has become confused. Two separate messages appear to have been merged.

JD Vance is a shifty looking grifter. He always looks unsure of himself too, lacking self confidence, masquerading as an Alpha male.

MADRID, Jan 18 (Reuters) - Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said a U.S. invasion of Greenland "would make Putin the happiest man on earth" in a newspaper interview published on Sunday. 

Sanchez said any military action by the U.S. against Denmark's vast Arctic island would damage NATO and legitimize the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.

"If we focus on Greenland, I have to say that a U.S. invasion of that territory would make Vladimir Putin the happiest man in the world. Why? Because it would legitimize his attempted invasion of Ukraine," he said in an interview in La Vanguardia newspaper.

"If the United States were to use force, it would be the death knell for NATO. Putin would be doubly happy."

Trump wants the island's natural resources/minerals. The 'national security' thing is nonsense. Just like Maduro was some kind of major drug lord addicting young Americans. Trump quickly changed his tune once Maduro was in US custody - the drugs talk disappeared, and it was all about oil (which Trump said the US owned).

The Epstein files, the bad employment situation, etc...

He only cares about the Epstein Files, those are what could lead to him having a cell in the nonce's wing!

They’re going to have to drill a long way down through the ice to hit rock to build a Trump Hotel in Greenland..

Maybe Trump wants all that ice to cool his data centres.

Bye-the-way: according NATO, there was NEVER a Chinese ship in Greenland's neighbourhood and close to never a Russian vessel.

The seized tanker that registered under a Russian flag has for the last week been parked off the coast of my home town, along with it's US escort.

It would appear Starmer allowed that to happen without any consultation with the Scottish government.

Unless someone comes to their senses this is not going to end well.
