Greenland Grab — What’s Really Behind It?
Trump isn’t ‘deranged’, he’s just stepping up the Yankee war on Europe.
Why does Donald Trump seem ready to destroy NATO in order to seize Greenland? As everyone who has even glanced at the issue knows, the USA already has a huge military surveillance presence in Greenland, and this could have been expanded to whatever extent thought necessary to allow the States to defend the territory of its little NATO ally, Denmark.
The propaganda about defence and the threat from Russia and China is therefore as absurdly dishonest as the claims about Venezuela and the U.S. drugs epidemic.
The truth about Trump’s Venezuelan adventure is clear. A rational and informed observer merely needs to assess which of the two complimentary and interlinked motives is the primary one. Sure, the Zionist lobby is using the USA to do its dirty work, but the hostile takeover bid is also an attempt to shore up the petro-dollar and the $US’s position as global reserve currency.
This isn’t a minor point; Venezuela has even more oil than Saudi Arabia, albeit very heavy crude which is more expensive to extract. Maduro’s moves to sell oil in other currencies, and to create a crypto-currency – the ‘Petro’ – backed by oil reserves rather than fiat money and usury, was an existential threat to the Federal Reserve.
The end of the petro-dollar would halt the flood of foreign wealth which sustains both America’s stability at home and its military might abroad, plunging the former hegemon into economic collapse and imperial retreat.
Whatever one may think of Trump’s 21st-century gunboat diplomacy, the reasons for it are at least quite widely understood, at least among those who study informed sources outside of the legacy media.
Greenland, however, is a different kettle of frozen fish. As already noted, the “Russia/China threat” is a particularly threadbare excuse which no-one really buys. With no Zionist interest in the political position of polar bears or a few thousand seal-eaters, that only leaves two plausible reasons: Either Trump is drifting into Roman imperial level megalomania, or it’s about the minerals under the ice.
This latter motivation has received a fair amount of coverage, but I haven’t seen any commentators who have explored this in terms of its geopolitical implications. And this is the heart of what it’s really all about.
The thinking of Trump’s circle has best been explained by libertarian author Roger Stone. Best-selling investigative journalist Stone was indicted on fabricated charges in the now-discredited Mueller witch hunt. His sentence was commuted by Trump in July 2020, and he was pardoned that December.

Who is Roger Stone?
Entry in Stone’s fascinating Substack. The man is a shameless U.S. imperialist, but he does know what he’s talking about and gives a great insight into the mentality involved.
Explaining the proposal to seize the huge island, on his Substack ‘Stone Cold Truth’, the Trump-supporting analyst wrote:
“The world that runs on satellites, missiles, advanced radar, batteries, aircraft, communications systems, and next generation manufacturing is the world that depends on rare earth elements and strategic industrial inputs. Greenland is known to contain substantial deposits of critical and strategic minerals, including rare earth elements such as neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium. These are essential for high performance magnets used in advanced defense systems, radar, electric motors, and aerospace technology.
“Greenland also holds uranium, one of the most strategically sensitive resources on Earth, vital to nuclear energy and closely tied to national security realities.
“Greenland contains zinc, critical for alloys, infrastructure, and defense manufacturing. It contains nickel, a major input for high strength steel and modern battery technology. It contains copper, essential for power grids, weapons systems, electronics, and industrial production. It contains iron ore, one of the foundational industrial minerals for manufacturing at scale. It contains titanium, prized in aerospace and defense engineering because it is strong, light, and indispensable. It contains gold, valuable not only as a commodity but as a signal of resource wealth. It contains graphite, vital for batteries and advanced industrial supply chains.”
Whether all this is totally true or not, and to what extent mining is practical under vast ice sheets, is not at issue here. What counts is that this is what Trump and at least some of his circle – industrialists and tech bros especially – believe.
There are reports that Peter Thiel sees Greenland’s riches as the catalyst for the creation of an Ayn Rand style libertarian ‘Galt’s Gulch’ future city, but one doesn’t have to stray towards transhumanist science fiction to see the straightforward appeal of all those Rare Earth Minerals to a corporate elite painfully aware that their economic and technological world is based on REM’s on which China currently has a near-monopoly.
They believe that the USA must confront China, so they have to find alternative supplies of critical minerals.
Unspoken Reason
Now let’s move to the angle which no-one seems to have noticed, or perhaps which people prefer not to talk about: While the proposed Greenland grab is clearly aimed at securing resources for a long-term confrontation with China, the short- and medium-term target is not China at all – it is Europe.
If America doesn’t seize Greenland’s minerals, they will not fall into the hands of China, they will remain in the hands of Denmark. That is to say, under the control of the European Union. Trump, Vance and Musk have all made it very clear in recent months that they see the EU (and its socialist collaborators in the UK) as ideological enemies, but the rivalry and hostility runs much deeper than that.
When the people running America were trying to run the whole world, they needed loyal and economically and socially stable NATO allies to help them do it. Now they are retrenching, clearly planning to operate a Western Hemisphere zone of influence against rival great powers with their own spheres.
So America doesn’t need NATO any more. It needs a collection of bankrupt and subservient suppliers of the things it needs: Greenland, South America and Canada for raw materials, Europe and Britain for high quality immigrants to feed the reviving industrial base, and reconstruction markets for its economy. It doesn’t need strong European allies, it needs chaos and total subservience, because that is what will give it power and profit in its shrunken world.
For the Wall Street/Pentagon/Beltway Empire to survive the rise of a multipolar world, the Dollar has to soar above the Euro and Sterling – and stay there. Similarly, the USA’s revived industrial base and military power must completely eclipse those of its European former allies. A concerted drive to reduce Western dependence on Chinese resources must spark the huge-scale exploitation of Greenland, but if that were to happen while it was under Danish control, it would hand the new wealth and power on a plate to Brussels.
The Greenland grab is therefore not some isolated incident, born out of either presidential madness or resource hunger; it is simply the latest move in the long-running US Deep State war against Europe.
The sea boils over one of the ruptured Nord Stream 2 pipes. The idea that Russia would have blown up the pipeline it had just finished building, in doing so losing a crucial hold it had over Germany, is one of the most ridiculous MSM claims of recent years. Make no mistake, this was the work of the U.S. Deep State, and the target wasn’t Russia, it was Germany and the EU.
Recall how, on September 26, 2022, explosions wrecked the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which was intended to transport natural gas from Russia to Germany. This was the biggest act of industrial sabotage in world history and it is crystal clear that the Ukrainian perpetrators acted on behalf of their U.S. handlers and paymasters.
The principal target of the Nord Stream bombing, and the energy sanctions which it complimented, is not Russia, but the economies of Europe in general, and Germany – the powerhouse of the European Union – in particular.
The entire Ukraine war, of course, is a hostile act, clearly foreseen as the end goal of the 2014 Maidan coup, which was orchestrated by Obama regime operatives, with the heavy lifting done by Soros-funded NGOs. And while a good few people know about Soros, they often miss the point that his main role was in reality a plausibly deniable front for the National Endowment for Democracy, itself the CIA in drag.
At one level, the target this time was Russia but, look deeper: The emptying and impoverishment of Ukraine is clearly a war aim for a U.S. elite completely entangled with Blackrock, Monsanto, et al. The destruction of most of the old inventory of the European and UK militaries is clearly a war aim for the U.S. Military-Industrial Complex, and hence for the many ‘lawmakers’ in its deep pockets.
Above all, to create a crisis which ends up with the European powers pouring their resources into a perpetual military confrontation against Russia is a deeply hostile act which will eviscerate the economic potential of these former allies, now undeclared rivals, for decades.
Once this is understood, other things fall into place too. The Soros/CIA operation to flood Europe with millions of Muslims and Africans of military age has as its flip-side the push – begun by Dick Cheney gofer Frank Gaffney – to use a torrent of donations by Zionist billionaires to fund the so-called ‘Counter-Jihad’ backlash.
The CIA playbook for the destruction of the former Yugoslavia through an artificially triggered civil war is being re-run, but this time with the whole of Western Europe – Britain and Ireland included – in the crosshairs.
Anyone who wonders if the people running the USA would be so wicked need only check a bit of history. No sooner had the New York money power begun to emerge than it provoked the War Between the States in order to consolidate its grip in the New World. Some 600,000 Americans were sacrificed in the first stage of Yankee imperialism’s world conquest.
The East Coast political, financial and industrial elites worked overtime to push Europe into the fratricidal disaster of World War One. America’s stated war aim on entry into the war was the destruction of the empires, not just of the Kaiser’s alliance, but also of the Entente’s Russian ally. That was the whole point of “making the world safe for democracy”.
Yes, it is very easy to trace the machinations of the banking houses and Zionist financiers in all of it, but to focus on them to the extent of losing sight of the guilt of the East Coast establishment is a grave error.
With half of the Old Continent’s empires wiped off the map by 1918, the second round of the European Civil War opened the door to the rise of the USA as the World Hegemon. The U.S. war aim this time around was not just the defeat of Nazi Germany, but also the destruction of the remaining European empires – French, Belgian and British.
This too was accomplished. In simple terms, the U.S.A. took over virtually all the strategic bases of the far-flung British Empire in return for a fleet of rusty old destroyers and the right to run up a debt which we haven’t long finished paying back. Ker-ching!
Or, as Major General Smedley-Butler said, “War is a Racket”. And most of them since 1900 have been American rackets as well as Zionist ones.
Given the European/Muslim ‘civil war’ now being primed by the two sides of the same Stateside coin, the war in Ukraine and the theft of Greenland are not isolated quirks produced by a purely Zionist agenda or the mental state of Emperor Donald. They are merely the 21st-century iteration of a much older U.S. Deep State hostility to, and undeclared war on, the nations of the Old World.
The left have always been good at spotting and calling out ‘Yankee imperialism’ when it stomps its way around South America or the Middle East. They seem, however, to have a blind spot when it comes to seeing the same baneful forces at work against the nations of Europe, including Britain.
But whether the left admit it or not, that’s what this is all about. Woodrow Wilson got re-elected in 1916 on the slogan “He kept us out of war”, and then did all he could to provoke Germany into the hostility which enabled him to drag America into World War One. Strangling Japan with sanctions and then ignoring the intelligence which would have save the fleet at Pearl Harbor repeated the warmongering deceit in WW2.
Donald Trump’s slogans against foreign wars preyed on the same very healthy instinct of ordinary Americans for isolationism. Unfortunately, we now see that the old trick has worked yet again. Trump has betrayed his base and his promises, and is now in full-blown imperial conquest mode. Dollar imperialism is again on the rampage. It isn’t the only evil thing loose in the world, of course, but it’s certainly up there with the other monsters.
