    Yes, that’s a big question.

    The thing is, as we’ve seen with Russia, letting a bully keep what they stole only leads to even more bullying and stealing later.

    If, instead, you fuck the bully up, they don’t do it again an go look for targets that don’t resist as much.

    Having a Resistance relentless blooding an occupying American presence in Greenland and destroying the infrastructure they would deploy to exploit Greenland’s mineral resources (which are the whole point of trying to get Greenland) would definitelly fucking that bully up.

    I suspect hope that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine after letting it have Crimea some years ago has retaught most European leaders the lesson that giving in to an earlier aggression will just mean more and greater aggressions later.
