There is so much that is so fucked about this Greenland thing, but probably the worst aspect is that huge amounts of time and energy are being expended on a completely manufactured crisis when there are dozens of real issues that are much more urgent and vital.
It’s a disgrace.

Nothing means more for national security knowing that you’ve got the benefit of having a nuke arsenal behind you.

Just ask Pakistan

Or just follow gandhism in civilization games.

In fairness, I can’t think of too many countries I would trust more to have nukes than the Scandinavian countries.

I thought this interview was interesting. Nothing big in any kind of way, but the questions were good and her answers interesting.

She is also right about the this january having been a good time to start drinking if one is disposed for it (or some other narcotic, legal or not). :slight_smile:

As always when I post Norwegian articles, I have google translated it. Therefore the language, while understandable, is not of high literate quality.

Maybe this is worth posting. It’s Israeli tv, but the man speaking is not a nobody.
Many experts think Trump isn’t serious though. We shall see.
