I can see plausible reasons for the security idea, with the warming Arctic Ocean. There is also talk of building a massive “missile defense shield” that will supposedly require incorporating the Denmark-ruled territory. Really? And this gives us the “right of conquest” and subjugation of another nation’s territory? It does no such thing!
Why can’t these plans be accomplished in cooperation with the NATO alliance? What about mutual defense? What about basic trust between long-allied nations? Instead, my country is breaking away from NATO. The break may already be irreparable. But there is to be posturing and aggression and arrogance rather than cooperation and understanding.
The current U.S. regime is an agent of chaos. I have never been so troubled by what feels like the imminence of global war on a catastrophic scale as I am right now. More now than during the Cold War. More now than after 9-11. The danger is palpable.
Everyone pray and beg God for mercy.
Meanwhile, I have drawn some more trees. Aside from the evergreens, the trees are bare. They are like fragile sticks exposed to the frozen cold, the pitiless wind, the strange winter light. Their life is hidden deep down inside them.
I hope to see them bloom again.
