    Still blind to the nation that threatened to invade Denmark, that has standing orders to invade if any war criminals are taken to the Hague to be prosecuted, that is repeatedly violating international law to invade countries for poorly conceived reasons, whose companies own a lot of essential infrastructure, that spends shitloads on far-right propaganda in the Netherlands and its neighbors, and that has troops and nuclear weapons stationed inside their borders.

    I don’t know if I’m more sad or impressed.

      Even more impressive that this comes from the same intelligence agency whose former head only months ago led a fifth-column coalition government whose largest party is infamous for having advocated ethnic cleansing, the abolition of freedom of speech and the reintroduction of slavery.

      Still blind to the nation that threatened to invade Denmark

      Really? It was actually Greenland but ok. That must be the reason why there is a continous EU military training happening there ever since the Davos conference.

        Greenland is a territory if Denmark. Do you think if Denmark invated Washington DC, its nit an attack on the usa as iys not a state? Id say Puerto Rico, but half of america probay would think its a different country. Maybe the president even.

          We refer to that island as Greenland, because it’s an autonomous region, and yes it’ protected by Denmark, EU & NATO.

          Your metaphor is confusing because that wasn’t my main point. I was talking about Operation Artic Endurance Objective: Deterrence against a US invasion of Greenland.

              Greenlanders are EU citizens though. We’ll indeed have to see if the art. 42.7 defense clause holds.

              Nope, not what I meant at all.

              The commenter was saying (about the OP’s report which talks about intensified Ruzzian and Chinese agression) that:

              “Still blind to the nation that threatened to invade Denmark” Meaning the US threat.

              I then reacted by asking why then do the european military exercise up there since Davos?

                What you meant and what you said are different things.

                I can read the thread. Its much clearer than your summary. Maybe thats the problem. Clarity.
