So if they totally raped Greenland to the nth degree, just pillaged it and left an ecological wasteland it would pay just 60% of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? kek

The resources on greenland are like when you read those articles about comets made of solid gold and diamonds. Nobody is going to extract any of it, because it's too expensive and impractical.

>>525724652
whats up with this greenland meme? isnt it in NATO already? they can put as many bases there as they want. Is it just for resources? USA already has everything. I dont get it

Arctic Military Strength: USA vs. Europe & Canada
>Personnel & Training >Europe/Canada has 80,000 to 120,000 active troops with full-spectrum Arctic training
>Finland alone has 250,000+ wartime reserves trained for -40C conditions
>Canada has 5,600 Rangers + Danish Sirius Patrol for permanent local eyes/ears
>USA only has 15,000 to 25,000 Arctic-qualified troops total
>Main US force is the 11th Airborne in Alaska (12k soldiers)
Ground Mobility
>Europe/Canada has ~2,000 articulated snow carriers (BV models) that float on deep snow >Europe/Canada has 10,000 to 14,000 military heavy snow scooters
>USA has under 300 snow carriers and only a few hundred snowmobiles
>US gear like Abrams/Strikers/Bradleys usually stop working in Greenland-grade cold >Rubber hardens, batteries die, and lubricants thicken on US equipment
Armor & Artillery
>Europe/Canada has 300-500 modern tanks (Leopard 2/Stridsvagn) with permanent winter mods
>Europe/Canada has 600-1,000 winterized IFVs (CV90) and 1,000+ Patria carriers
>USA has ZERO armored brigades permanently based in the Arctic
>US armor needs massive retrofitting to survive sustained Arctic ops
Naval & Logistics
>Europe/Canada has 25+ ice-capable or ice-strengthened patrol ships
>USA only has 2 active polar icebreakers >Europe has massive civilian freight/sealift fleets compared to US Arctic logistics
>US can bomb the island, but Europeans/Canadians are the only ones who can stay there
>Weather chooses the tempo; one 2-day storm can leave US air assault units thin and isolated

tl;dr: US has the bombs, but Europe/Canada has a 10x advantage in Arctic survival and ground mobility gear.

Toronto monitors fecal coliform (mainly \(E.\) coli) at beaches, aiming for levels below 100 E. coli per 100mL for safe swimming, stricter than the Canadian standard of 200/100mL, with results varying daily and influenced by rain, birds, and runoff, requiring real-time checks via the City of Toronto website or Toronto Public Health (TPH) social media for current advisories. High counts trigger "Not Suitable for Swimming" warnings, even if beaches remain open for other activities, with recent advisories sometimes flagging Marie Curtis Park and Sunnysi

If you think they would need to spend trillions to get under the ice, you're retarded.

It's right next to them, logistically doing this is much less of a nightmare for the US than Denmark. That's before even talking about just how good American logistics are compared to anybody else when the chips are down.

Right now. Go to google maps. Now measure the distance between the closest point of greenland between Denmark and the US respectively.

Fucking retard.

Funnily enough that would clear our national debt within a decade.

It's relative, anon. They can handle more debt so naturally they take more on to help them short term.

There are many benefits to USA having complete ownership over Greenland as opposed to the tiny nation of Denmark.

The natural resources are honestly just a perk they might not even bother with, and will passively benefit from as the ice melts.

>>525724652
Are the Danish the niggers of Europe? Why couldn't they get the riches out of this land? Just let it sit there like retards

I said measure the distance, not the fucking sailing route. You can measure from the top of Maine. Tell the class how much closer the US is to greenland. Or even better, the centre of greenland.

No one is investing anything. Trump just wants to be a modern-day conqueror because he's so desperate for his legacy not to be "biggest piece of shit to ever sit in the white house" and maybe one of his tech-oligarchs wants to build a failed technocratic fiefdom there, primarily consisting of a private bunker built to house a harem of trafficked minors.

Independent, unchallenged control over the shipping lanes, no retarded EU Bureaucracy over what they can and cannot do within waters that are much closer to them.

Many NATO countries still refuse to spend adequately on defence and rely on the USA to defend their own territory for them. At least getting the land of Greenland would be some form of ROI for the US' commitments to NATO over the past 80 years.

What do the USA receive for this, shit off the EU about morality?

They defended Greenland themselves in WW2 because Denmark capitulated against Germany within 6 hours, further adding to the point the USA had to step in to defend their territory and likely would in any future scenario.

All for what, to let Denmark reap any future benefits of owning Greenland?
>>
>>525724652
Hypothesis A: all the natural ressources in Greenland are at the coast
Hypothesis B: only the coast regions of Greenland have been prospected for ressources and there is probably a lot more hidden under the ice

>>525727285
So it's closer to them and they have better logistics, you got me!

You have to do this because your country would be a broke shithole if you didn't. Just because you do it more doesn't mean you do it better.

>On top of that is the vast hypothetical payoff of owning rights to the territory and the largely untapped trove of valuable minerals hidden underneath its ice. Last January, the American Action Forum—a center-right D.C.-based think tank—put the value of Greenland’s known mineral resources at $4.4 trillion but added that only $186 billion is currently extractable because of logistical and environmental hurdles.
Out of the 186 billion even less of it is actually profitable to extract. God you mfs are stupid.
