Well it would not be just without the US. It would also be without Uk, Norway, Canada, Iceland, Turkey Albania, & North Macedonia. Try guarding the north Atlantic without them. Plus getting decisive decisions from Ireland, Austria, Hungary & Slovakia.

There is a woman filming from the other side of the street. Looks like a very good angle to see more detail.

But Trump claims Greenland is under threat from China. See attached. For China to gain access to the artic they would need to secure the Bering Straits. That means capturing at least part of Alaska. Surely Trump should be reinforcing Alaska, not removing troops.

Alternatively it was a small aerial drone which accurately hit the manifold.
“A manifold is a critical deck-mounted pipe system on tankers, acting as the main connection point (interface) for loading and discharging liquid cargo like crude oil or chemicals to/from shore facilities via hoses”

Attached shows sea routes through the Artic. Canada controls NW passage. With regards to control of NE passage, Iceland is more important than Greenland. So maybe not a joke.
Faroe Islands look important as well. They are a “self-governing nation under the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark”

Looking at the four chimneys it would appear that the drone hit the item circled, LH edge of lower photo. Reported as outdoor switch gear. Maybe not a miss but only one hit.

Neya Arsenal is here, see photo

The way to fight Trump is with the truth, easy to do with the huge number of lies he tells. However criticisms should be valid, otherwise they are used to defend Trump.
The “two weeks vacationing” included meeting national leaders from two major war zones.

Ilsky oil refinery Is here

We are talking about south east Colorado. That would be 1200 km (750 miles) from the Canadian border.
It’s the Canadians who are poisoning the groundwater. Not natural arsenic, not American farming & industry, no it’s the Canadians.

Why are you following English football then

Here in UK for a general election counting the votes takes between 2 and 15 hours depending on constituency.
Polling ends at 10pm Thursday, by midday Friday all the results are in, see attached.
Therefore all postal votes have to be at the counting location on voting day.

In a police state/dictatorship you have to say you are happy. Do not say you want to live elsewhere, otherwise the state may oblige as in Gulag, Siberia.
To complain you state a few facts, like “gas now connected“ & “sewage poured into the street”, plus make a joke out of it.

Bethel has not yet scored a first class 100. Batting at number 3 for England at MCG in front of 95k Australians is a tall order.
He achieved England highest score in their winning second innings with 40. Third highest score in the whole match where no-one reached 50.
Overall it was OK.

“1800 km is no distance for a modern (Russian) army”
Meanwhile, in the real world, 40km in three years is realistic. But only after loosing lots of territory, see blue areas on Dec 25 map attached.

In addition to the fuel train and fuel storage tanks, it would appear that a sphere type mast was hit, also a building several times, see photo. Anyone know what they were?

Some reports sa the attack was by sea babies. This apparently incorrect, see attached.

Unfortunately, Russia, UK and USA did not “promise to guarantee our security and territorial integrity”.
Only to “respect the independence, sovereignty & existing borders of Ukraine”. Russia broke their word.

Needed a full blown treaty with guarantees.
