Wer hätte das gedacht: Ich habe Respekt vor dem klaren Auftreten des grönländischen Ministerpräsidenten und der dänischen Ministerpräsidentin auf deren Pressekonfernz. »Wenn wir zwischen USA und Dänemark wählen müssen, wählen wir Dänemark und die EU.« »Grönland steht nicht zum Verkauf.« »Wenn es um Sicherheit geht: Alle NATO-Partner unterstützen Dänemark, die arktische Grenze zu Russland und China zu sichern.« (Subtext: Auch gegen MAGA-USA) »Als souveräne NATO-Partner arbeiten wir auch mit den USA zusammen.«

So beschissen solche Kriegsrhetorik ist, es ist im Moment das Einzige, was bleibt, wenn die USA einmal mehr imperialistische Arschlöcher sind.
