Oh yes it will get involved, the US will be kicked out but yes, NATO will be involved

"Police may have to be involved in my invasion of my victim's home" says criminal

Yes, NATO must get involved if one of its members is attacked.

Just fucking try it you orange twat!

Which side does he think NATO would support?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago (3 children)

An attack on one is an attack on all. I always wondered what would happen if one NATO country attacked another.

Putin sits back and laughs his head off.

Aggressor gets kicked out and NATO has to defend the attacked

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yep. Because that’s exactly what happened with Greece and Turkey…

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, it was close to happening with greece and turkey. And I dont think cyprus is quite the same thing as the US trying to take over greenland, is it?

I am talking about the Imia crisis in 1996.

I hope NATO does get involved. Not the same way Trump hopes though...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, what’s he smoking thinking that they would help invade a sovereign nation?!

[–] Nemean_lion 91 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Canada has three of top 5 longest sniper kills. Ukraine has the top spot. We just need to export a small chunk of metal at high velocity into a golf course.

Not getting banned on Lemmy moment

[–] [email protected] 53 points 3 days ago (6 children)

I hope you're prepared to pay an extra 25% on that export.

He just had Rutte visit and thinks he could arrange that for him. Rutte skirted the question by affirming that the defense of the polar region was important.

Literally what's wrong with you? How dense can one carrot be?

[–] Canadian_anarchist 25 points 2 days ago

A literal carrot would be an improvement over the current orange tyrant.

[–] [email protected] 115 points 3 days ago (22 children)

This is wholly out of control.

Fix your country, you absolute selfish idiots.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 3 days ago (25 children)

I don't disagree, but... how?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Join the 50501 protests and/or attend TeslaTakedown protests.

Dumbass doesn't even understand that NATO is a DEFENSIVE pact and that Denmark is a member. Not wanting to give you their territory doesn't count as an attack.

Also if he really cared about security he would have strengthened his ties with his allies instead of pushing them away. The US is far less secure now that it was 3 months ago.

Amazing. It is like they want people to hate America as much as possible before America starts confronting China.

[–] Devanismyname 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As a Canadian, I don't know which country i hate more at this point.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I know I'm supposed to understand that China is horrible, and the young US dick-tatorship is still nothing compared to Chinese high-tech totalitarian dystopia... but somehow, seeing USA, a supposed former friend and ally, turn into a ruthless, unprincipled traitor, aligning itself with Russia... With Russia, of all states! And spitting in the face of the hero of our times...

We know Russians here in Poland. We know how their army works, we know their mentality. When Ukraine reported war crimes, we believed them. Seeing US backstab Ukraine like that... It's just too much. I think the American brand is dead for us.

Trump added that the result was very good for the US and 'the person who did the best is a very good person as far as we’re concerned'

Kill him. I'm Canadian. Come at me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Can we stop these kinds of comments? It's exactly what MAGA will use to rile up violence against Canada. Who doesn't like a fun plumber video game but we're better off encouraging and helping Americans to organise.

The more I look into Greenland situation the more I am thinking there's already a psychological campaign in play to get them to be part of the US. They're legitimately trying to get away for the Danish government and there's a strong US presence there already with military bases. I suspect the target is to get them to hand over the keys not only willingly but ask for it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

They are working on interfering in Canada too and have funded far-right groups, including the freedom convoy.

The mighty US of A needs NATO to invade an island with 56,000 inhabitants?

Is Wakanda located on that island or what?

Given that he regards the Department of Justice as his personal litigators, it makes sense that he’d regard NATO as his enforcers.

NATO will do exactly nothing to help the bloated orange shit-weasel take over Greenland.

Greenland and Canada are NATO countries. You cannot attack or forcefully annex another NATO country. If he leaves NATO, he will be up against Canada & Europe. The US is one Twizzler away from having the entire world sanction & boycott it.

He wants Greenland the same way as Putin wanted extra countries. How many countries did Russia invade between 2000 and 2020?

National security is just a pretext. Greenland already contributes to your national security you king. They’re a part of NATO. You already have force projection up there if required.
