"Trump said the U.S. will take action to secure control of Greenland 'whether they like it or not,' citing national security concerns and warning that Russia or China could otherwise gain influence, despite firm opposition from Greenland, Denmark, and bipartisan U.S. lawmakers."

Calling Wilcox’s cartoon “unacceptable” misunderstands both satire and journalism. Political cartoons are meant to be provocative, compressed and confronting. They exaggerate power relationships to expose hypocrisy and danger, not to offer polite balance.
This cartoon does exactly that. It highlights unchecked US imperial behaviour and the hollow language of “freedom and security” used by institutions like NATO while aggression proceeds regardless. Discomfort is not a flaw, it is the point.
If a cartoon criticising military power is deemed unacceptable simply because it offends those aligned with that power, then the problem is not the cartoon. It is a shrinking tolerance for dissent and satire in public debate.
Wilcox is doing a great job.

While we do #Denmark #Danmark #USA #Greenland #Arctic drama, don't forget the #Inuit, the people who live there
#AqqalukLynge, cofounder of Greenland independence party #InuitAtaqatigiit, loudly reminds the world that his homeland is a free and self-governing territory
"It’s really frustrating for us. What do you do with friends that are no longer friends? I don't know"
Whatever issues the Inuit have with #Copenhagen obviously #US #imperialism is far worse

A #LouisianaPurchase style transaction may be the least likely. Danish #law recognizes Greenlanders as a people with the right to decide their own future, meaning Copenhagen cannot barter the island away even if it wanted to. Any change in #sovereignty would first require #Greenland to choose #independence — a separate #legal, electoral process — before it could negotiate anything with Washington.

Another option would be to make a deal on #Greenland — a sale or lease, with expanded access to #mineral rights, & #US role in #security. In the event of a crisis, “the rest of #Europe will lean on #Denmark to make some kind of arrangement with the #US,” Rahman said.

But the mere prospect of such conflict only highlights how much more difficult it is now for #US #allies to toe the line with #Trump. That, too, could lead to a drastic deterioration of the transatlantic #alliance if not its end, analysts say.
“Many European countries are still seeking to ride both a European and an American horse,” Rahman said. “That may become impossible.”

#Military experts say #Denmark & #Greenland would stand no chance against American #military might. In reality that is nonstarter in every way; political analysts across the board agree with #StephenMiller that no one will go to #war over Greenland. #Europe is too dependent on the #US militarily & economically to risk a true break.

Invoking the #NATO treaties collective defense clause, known as #Article5, under which an attack on one member is regarded as an attack on all, requires the #unanimity of all 32 #allies. The #US, of course, would reject any plea for help by #Denmark — effectively neutering the #treaty.
“Article 5 did not anticipate that the invading country would be a member of NATO,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) told reporters asking about bill in #Congress to prohibit #Trump for acting in #Greenland.

Whether its gaming or grasping, European leaders face unpalatable choices. One is to stick with the unified hard line that emerged in recent days, making clear that any move on #Greenland could trigger a response by European #allies — not against #Russia or #China but, unthinkably, against the #UnitedStates.
