All the people voting yes hav no idea what international law says.
For the case of Venezuela, though the move was illegal but there are several arguments to be made.
But as regards Greenland, that one is too clear. It will be seen as a provocation of war.

He spoke a day after the U.S. captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and the president said Washington would run the Latin American country.

This raised concerns in Denmark that the same could happen with Greenland, a Danish territory.


Trump told the magazine: "We do need Greenland, absolutely. We need it for defense."


It is a lie. Greenland, like Venezuela, has a huge deposit of oil, precious stones and rare earths. He covets it same way they stole Iraq's oil.

Sadam Hussein's probably laughing at NATO right now. Smh.

Sadam is dead and not laughing at anyone...if he had any consciousness remaining, which he doesn't, he would be regretting the day he turned a dictator. Most African countries would see it as prayer answered if America decided to annex them grin. Aside enriching the corrupt politicians, their cronies and the shadowy foreign actors, how has independence benefited most African nations and the black race?

and you think colonisation benefitted the black race M

Are some "special" people able to create polls to their posts on Nairaland while others are not?

Or are the mods the ones attaching it?

I'd like to know.

So your brothers that is selling motor parts and electronics at Alaba, and boutiques at Balogun in Lagos and raking in millions everyday,and who do not wish for US invasion in Nigeria to disturb their business, are also benefitting from the government of the day?

What a vapid argument just to support tyranny, just because you feel yourself inferior to the white men.
How did you know there mind?

We have a new democratic dictator in the world.

Donald Trump is a bully and he wants to project the American military.

Isn't this surprising how the US and Europe cancelled Russia for simply protecting her interests,yet the very act is what US is trying to do against an European country. Indeed,these are interesting times o
European countries are now the laughing stock or vassal of USA.

I see the death of NATO if DJ succeeds in his quest, giving Russia more power to project her power to the surrounding countries for defense too.
I blame the EU who always dance to tune of US, they thought US give them a shit.

U.S aggression is getting mix reactions
on the world stage remember Adoff Hitler.American hegemonic nature is becoming threat to even to her supported countries in needs of her help. One fundamental reason America is fighting now is because Russia is preoccupied with war with Ukraine often backed by America.Middle East is unsettled because of Isreal military attacks sponsored by America.Greenland occupation in Denmark is not an option for America but a reality to deter Any European forces .Korea and China can be another factor why America is blowing her military versatility in the globe.Nigeria military assistance to destroy terrorism won't be for free because her mission is not only to stop terrorism in Nigeria but its economic gains.If a country can't solve its domestic problems then that country is a failed state and it's slave in d committees of nations

[I] Sec. Marco Rubio declares the Western Hemisphere is OURS, Russia, China and Iran must GET OUT

WELKER: Why does the US need Venezuelan oil?!

RUBIO: "Why does CHINA need their oil? Russia? Iran? This is the West, THIS IS WHERE WE LIVE."🔥[/I]
Can you imagine that? This is enough for Russian never to back down as far as Ukraine is concerned. Europe is gone as long as Trump or anyone from the Republican rules.

‘We need Greenland’ is just honest imperial language. No democracy talk, no human rights sermon - just strategy and minerals. At least this time they’re not pretending
