Is the implication here that we should take the moral high ground and let our adversaries murder us first?
Is Canada an adversary of America? Or Greenland?
What position should Canadians or the people of Greenland take with regards to the people in the US military who are currently working to annex and invade their countries?
What position should the US military take with regards to the people in those countries who are currently working to resist those efforts to annex and invade their countries their homelands?
Do you consider Canadian and Icelandic civilians your adversary? If so, how did that come to be?
Well that would be fine if it was defence. But it's now the department of war, led by a person who has attacked two countries this year alone.
I mean it's not like we know those "adversaries" ever wanted to murder us. For example, the US has a long record of assassinating labor leaders in South America to protect our Banana Republics on behalf of Chiquita. I think it's absolutely fair to bring in skepticism towards the secrets our military keeps from us
It's quite strange what your adversaries become them after you travel to other side of the planet and kill, maim and destroy them.
