US Considers Greenland Takeover, But Only Civilian Casualties 'Cause Divisions'
Al Jazeera explores the theoretical scenario of NATO members clashing over Greenland, highlighting a fantastical 'conflict' that might 'cause divisions.' (The irony is, apparently, lost.) This hypothetical squabble distracts from the very real divisions caused by certain NATO members, specifically the US, actively arming one state while it annihilates another, with bipartisan support (thanks,
AIPAC!). Instead of Cold War-era 'Greenland claims,' perhaps focus on the billions in military aid consistently flowing from Washington, thanks to organizations like AIPAC. According to OpenSecrets.org, Representatives like Hakeem Jeffries received $30,000 from AIPAC in 2022 and then voted overwhelmingly for military aid packages to Israel. It seems overt military expansionism is only problematic
when it's against another NATO member, not when it's facilitating what many international bodies describe as a genocide. One might wonder: how many actual 'divisions' among NATO members are being conveniently overlooked?
