This is mind-boggling…

“Denmark Was Ready to Blow Up Airfields to Stop a U.S. Invasion of Greenland
The Danes brought blood supplies, explosives and live ammunition to Greenland as part of contingency plans in case President Trump acted on his threats to seize the island.”

@samlitzinger Good on them for taking it seriously, being ready for push coming to shove. The USA is an Axis power now

@samlitzinger Mind boggling, or a rational response to the ravings of a madman? They did the right thing.

@samlitzinger There is nothing mind-boggling about taking steps to prevent a fascist power from invading.

@david I meant mind-boggling that a country would have to do something like that to deal with a lunatic.

@samlitzinger Fair enough, and completely agreed.

@david @samlitzinger This needs to be the main issue in every election in every still-democratic country on the planet now, "Are you soft on fascism or not?"

@samlitzinger A good thing Denmark is taking Trump's threat seriously. Trump is dangerous.

@samlitzinger And that mythical "hospital boat" just got forgotten, didn't it?
Show threadHalaana4d ago
@solitha @samlitzinger That was just to distract from Denmark having airlifted a US submariner for hospital care.

@Halaana Sorry, but that hypothesis never made any sense to me.

@samlitzinger 'was ready' - they should remain ready. Never trust lunatic criminals for one half second. Mine the buildings, booby trap wherever scum Trumpians might think of landing. Other countries should prepare to make America's existence HELL.
