If you invade Greenland it most certainly will be.
Personally I don’t think it’d lead to any war. If the US empire decides to take Greenland, the EU will almost definitely let it. Almost all European leaders are either weak and spineless or straight up American assets.
I mean, the historical parallel is Hitler assuming he could get away with Poland and he’d get more appeasement but instead suddenly found himself at war with France and Britain. You can get away with alot until suddenly you can’t.
It won’t really matter what the governments do if the people have decided that the line has been crossed. Don’t assume the rest of the world is as cowardly as Americans are.
The thing you are overlooking is that Americans aim to survive this. They want power, money and comfort and they’re willing to step on anyone to get it. But for the rest of the world, this is existential.
Don’t assume the rest of the world is as cowardly as Americans are.
Judging by how the governments of the world are allowing the US government to do whatever it wants to without consequence, it’s not an assumption. And what can private citizens of the world do about it if the US invaded Greenland? Nothing, unless they’re in Greenland, which only has a population of 57,000.
I know right, Europeans are so brave…. They could barely manage a harsh criticism of the Venezuela affair. They got Putin invading their back yard and violating their airspace and they can’t even muster arms.
God if the European war machine is to save us we’re fucked.
Edit to add… You may be under the mistaken assumption that the US is not dependent on the rest of the world. See what happens when the world dumps the dollar or unloads all US Treasury bonds. You guys have had a free ride to rack up infinite debt on the deal that you were a stabilizing force. Since you’ve decided to break that deal then you can find out what happens when the world decides to pull out of their side of the bargain.
Let’s see what happens when Canada cuts off oil, potash, critical minerals and hydro. Nationalize pharma patents and sell to the world at 1/100 of your price.
Oh, I’m very aware we’re all dependent on each other under the way things used to be. When the US completely falls, it will take a lot of other countries with it, which is why it’s good to see any kind of effort to cut off US ties now. It’s not nearly harsh enough, however.

You tell yourself whatever you need to.
