By not achieving it's objectives. There is no military build up on the southern border. Again, that's where the drugs are coming from. I don't know. I'm not in the drug buisness. But I'm sure the DEA has some ideas. Ultimately, it's better to attack the source of the problem if one's intention...

The people of Greenland, like the Canadians, want to be left alone. Cry some more. They don't want to attack us. Where are you getting this from? The Russians have their hands full in Ukraine and the Chinese have their eyes on Taiwan. Those are real flashpoints. They are preparing for war...

They don't. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jan/28/85-of-greenlanders-do-not-want-to-join-us-says-new-poll

Yes, the US military won many battles. But it lost the war. If we had chosen to stay and fight more, it would have ended up like Afghanistan. 20 years of fighting and dying with nothing to show for it. I pay attention to history and I notice patterns. We're supposed to learn from our mistakes...

No.

It is ultimately up to Denmark. The people living in Greenland don't want to become a US territory. Again, look at the pretext: "We need this patch of land for our national security". It is implied that there's some great threat waiting out there for us. Trump has brought up Russian and Chinese...

"We need your country for national security".

The US military does not go to war with the intention of not achieving it's objectives. It simply wasn't able to achieve them in Vietnam, just as it wasn't able to achieve it's objectives in Afghanistan. Large armies are very good at fighting other armies. What they're not very good at is...

The United States will occupy the country and we're going to have a repeat of Vietnam. That's what's going to happen.

Then Trump should ask the Congress to formally declare war. They US constantly whines about countries like Mexico not respecting it's sovereignty while it's violating the sovereignty of other countries with air strikes. Don't you find it strange that the US is in a constant state of war? We're...

Where is the United States Congress? The power of the executive branch must be reigned in. If any other country did this to us, we would view it as an act of war.

I think this would make a cool avatar for somebody.

Christians don't read the bible because they find it boring and because they don't want to live with cognitive dissonance. One cannot read mythological stories, such as those contained in Genesis, and square it with scientific truth. So they choose not to read it and use their faith as more of a...

In my experience, atheists read it more than the Christians do. They are the ones who were really seeking truth. Christians who are Christians because they were born into it, were never seeking.

Christians should read it too.

The fastest way to atheism is by reading the bible. That's why they don't. That and it's rather boring.

I think it's a good decision. Religion shouldn't be taught in public schools. If you teach one religion, you have to teach them all.

I'm afraid of heights. :eek:
