About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the Greenland situation on NATO and advocates for a non-interventionist approach by America.
The Greenland debacle is bringing the NATO relationship into better focus on just how bad the EU/SSR has become. America should take a non-interventionist pause and get its internal house in order before standing astride the world again and lighting fires that never go away and continuously make things worse. Stop the madness. Funny how the "logic" of decolonization never gets applied to Greenland by the Europeans. Recent episodes on NATO.
