The US has a military base in Greenland since 1951 and it has had more military personnel than civilians, besides being an strategic location, it has mineral deposits and oil, and most of the billionaires behind trump want to drill petroleum, rare earth all over the earth and the seas.
Greenland has many natural resources, including:
:
Copper, gold, lead, molybdenum, precious stones, rare earth, uranium, thorium, titanium, zinc, graphite, lithium, oils, gas, coal, and ironCanada, Denmark and England are members of NATO since its foundation, I do not think that a member of NATO is going to fight against another member of NATO, as Adam wrote realpolitik is going to be real issue about all this populist bluff. He is not going to be able to dissolve NATO, even more Joe Biden expanded its membership and it is in a stronger stand at the present time
They do not need an invasion to take the resources of Greenland, they are going to negotiate that among capitalists, and the USA does not have the resources to buy Greenland, and in the last time the congress voted against increasing the deficit and he is not going to obtain the approval to buy it, and he has opposition within the high ranks of the Pentagon, that is the reason why he wants to remove some of them, and his nominee has a lot of opposition within the congress
He is making all those threats like a typical gangster to scare peoples and to show to his base that he is a strong man, but he is not, it is part of his show,
He will not invade or shoot missiles toward Mexico, there are several USA corporations in Mexico who are also supporting him including the automobile industry, and a shortage of food from Mexico might create problem with his base of supporters.
A big crisis in Mexico will increase the emigration to a higher level, and he is not going to be able to deport more than 20 millions peoples in four years, and many farmers that voted for him are already complaining and getting scare because they might go into bankruptcy due to the fact that most of their workers are from Mexico and other Latin America countries, and nobody else want to do their job, and they do not have the training either, to deport millions of peoples will require a lot of military resources and money that the congress is not willing to spend, and some states that depend on agriculture are getting ready to confront him including republicans governors
He only has 25% of support within the Americans workers,( 1.25% was the difference with Harris ) and he promised peace to his supporters, he does not have a mandate as he is saying.
The market system is stronger than any president, and Biden prepared the conditions that will force him to continue the war in Ukraine and the Middle East, he is not going to be able to unban seas drilling for oil
He is not going to invade Venezuela, and the Venezuelan army is armed to the teeth and they have a lot of military training, and all of them are supporting Maduro, an invasion to Venezuela might create many opposition in the region, and many guerrillas groups are willing to fight against the USA including the Colombian FARC, the time to kick ass are already gone,
His Secretary of State who might be Marco Rubio, he is not going to be welcome in Latin America and he will try to create opposition against cuba, Venezuela, Colombia, brasil and Nicaragua, and all countries ( the argentina ambassador was fired because she opposed Cuba embargo at the UN ) want the cuban embargo to be lifted. Most leftwing organizations oppose him, and also Hillary Clinton had a lot of opposition within the peoples when she was the Secretary of State, and she is more ‘liberal’ than him
Pretty soon the Chinese are not going to need the Panama Canal, they have their own port, and they are trying to make a Canal thru Nicaragua, the lake that supply water to the Panama Canal is getting dry due to climate change and pretty soon the canal is going to be useless, and it will require billions of dollars to fix that situation
The last time that George Bush invaded Panama it created a big crisis in the region, and in this time the situation can be worse and there more countries and government in Latin America who are opposing the USA, the situation is different, and the presence and influence of China and Russia in the region will make a difference, the situation is totally different to the period of the cold war.
The USA is an empire in decline, and it is losing its grip around the world, and its world hegemony is declining, it has a powerful army but it has been defeated several times
He wants to invade Mexico too, and probably Venezuela
He is going to need a big army to invade all those countries from his interventionist list, he does not remember that the USA has been defeated several times by less sophisticated armies, and he might need a large network of industries to produce and reproduce war commodities which do not exist in the USA
The old days of WW 2 are gone. A war in South America might be another Vietnam and a good market for the Chinese and the Russian to sell military weapons, as it was done during the war in Central America.
It might produce the revival of many guerrillas groups and resistances , and the USA army is not prepared to fight in the jungles of South America and central america
Mexico is the biggest exporter of commodities to the USA and the economy might collapse
https://www.counterpunch.org/2025/01/07/the-banana-road-from-south-america-to-china/
The banana road from South America to China.
Chinese capitalists do not need the Panama Canal, now, the route between China and South America is shorter, and the dry ports will be connected to the Peruvian megaport. The real threat to the US capitalist class is the Chinese trade, and the commercial routes that they are creating in South and Central America and they can be displaced
The old concept of Banana Republic was applicable to Honduras and Guatemala production of bananas and when one US corporation was able to control the whole nation but that concept is not longer applicable with the world expansion of capitalism, as well, the concept of third world is not applicable any longer, it was a political term applicable during the Cold War period
One of the few individuals in the US who really know the history of immigration is Aviva Chomsky, although some of her research had already been done by a group of peoples from the Caribbean islands, and Chineses, and Juan Gonzalez journalist of Democracy Now.
The history of the US immigration is very complex and variable, as well the laws of immigration is very complex too, and variable, it changed according to the economic changes of the nation and the logic of capitalist mode of production.
Before 1965 there was not such thing as ilegal emigration, and there was not quota on immigration, and before the H1B Visa, there was another one known as practical training which was given to professional graduated in the USA, specially to engineers when the USA was an industrialized nation, even more, engineers were hired before being graduated.
Harvard founded the University of Puerto Rico in order to produce more mechanicals, civil engineers and agronomists, most of the students already had background on calculus and physics. Immigration laws are based on priorities and precedents, as well, there was a priority for emigrants from the so called communist countries, and for the exiles from Central America also created for political propaganda
Those nationalists do not know the history and the laws of immigration, and they do not know that thousands of engineers have been fired in the USA and they have been replaced by cheaper labor forces, and many of them can not find a job, and most graduate schools of sciences are surviving because many students are from foreign countries such as China, India and the Middle East, the rest of the students are majoring in business administration and finance
The USA continues using the Doctrine of discovery which gave to the European invaders the rights to take and steal all lands, territories, resources and to kill the original inhabitants of those regions, and put their own names on everything, and impose their religions on all the peoples that survived. Again they want to apply the Monroe doctrine in Latin America, and the Carter doctrine in the Middle East
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_doctrine
Now, they want to give a new name to the Gulf of Mexico without consulting with Mexico, Cuba and the inhabitants of the Caribbeans islands, now he wants to name it the Gulf of America, this ignorant does not even know the history of the region, as well, he does not know the history of Greenland, its geological formation, their intention is just to produce profits at all cost ( oil, gas, fish and sulfur ) and a bunch of workers without consciousness support their ambitions blinded by nationalism
All those continents and islands had their names before the Europeans invaders came to the region, and the whole region used to be called the Turtle Island,( Abya Yala ) they have placed their names on everything and they have destroyed all culture and civilizations around the whole world, and now they are destroying the oldest civilization in the Middle East ( Near East ) which is Syria, or the Caldean and the Assyrian, and they destroyed Iraq. The south-west of the USA was called Aztlan
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztlán
Christoper Columbus and his expeditionaries should have sunk in the sea to avoid the massacre of more than 75 millions of human beings, the so called Columbus Day has been eliminated in several countries in Latin America, it is the celebration of a massacre like thanksgiving day and most peoples do not know the real history of that event
Americo Vespucci was just a liar, a forgery, and a map robber like most of the ones that headed those explorations, they did not discover anything, they were the ones that were discovered by the natives, that is the reason why they do not want the school system to use the history books of Howard zinn because he has debunked all those myth and lies, but they can not cover the sun with one finger because the historians Juan Bosh, Francis Jennings, Jimenez Grullon, and Galeano have written the same historical description and millions of peoples have read their books

This reactionary right wingers do not respect any history, human beings, laws, treaties, or the independence of any country,( isolationism and interventionism combined ) they are the new buccaneers and the filibusters, and the pirates like Francis Drake which were a bunch of thieves, murderers, and land robbers
PS Galeano book was given to Barrack Obama, he did not know that history either, living on pipe dreams, when he was young he mentioned Malcom X
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Veins_of_Latin_AmericaThis Megaport might become more important than the Panama Canal
She might use this controversy as a pretext to increase her popularity which is down to 36%
She is the wife of ex president Zelaya who was overthrown by a coup orchestrated by the USA and Hillary Clinton, and Obama, he was a right winger but he changed his tendency to the left to receive the support of the government of Venezuela and Hugo Chavez. Another coup for commercial route toward the Panama Canal

Capitalism will not collapse by itself, it must be replaced by the world working class, and the world working class is not ready for that mission yet
Millions of workers still believe that capitalism is their only viable solution, and millions of US workers are still supporting capitalism and pro capitalist leaders, electing either one would have been the same thing. Capitalism as usual .
Donald Trump was elected by workers from different social backgrounds, including white, blacks, latinos, women, asian, and middle eastern, they believed in the promises of a right wing demagogue, in the same way that workers have believed in the promises of left-wings demagogues, and both have greased the wheels of capitalism
Capitalism is becoming more reactionary and recalcitrant but it is not collapsing, cyclical crisis is a normal process of the capitalist society.
I have heard the same thing about the decomposition of capitalism for several decades and capitalism is still producing profits and it has not collapsed.
It is the same mistake made by Rosa Luxembourg and that is the reason why she supported the uprising and she was killed, capitalism was not collapsing in her time .
There was not a workers socialist revolution in France and Germany, and none has taken placed around the world, on the contrary, workers have embraced capitalist nationalism.
Right wings populists are becoming popular and are winning elections without any coup d’tat, and have a large support among the working class due to the failures and the false promises, and false theories of the left-wingers social democrats, and others pro reformist groups including the Leninists
Argentina is the best example, with so many leftwings, anarchists, and Leninists groups ( several tendencies ) and the workers elected an ultra right wing leader, in this case, a so called anarco capitalist
I think we should listen to the opinions of others political organizations. I have participated on online meeting given by the ICC ( CCI ) and I attend public meeting given by others organizations

WARS IN THE MIDDLE EAST (1)
After more than a decade of bloody conflict in which more than 600.000 people were killed and more than 14 million were forced to flee their homes, the Syrian ‘civil’ war seemed to have settled in a stalemate and a de facto partition of the country. And yet, only a little push was needed to topple Assad.
The government forces refused to fight. Everywhere the rebels came, there was little or no resistance, everywhere they were greeted by jubilant masses cheering the downfall of the hated regime.

It looks like the 24-48 hours war ending offered by Trump to his followers during the election campaign is not going to take place. They were just promises made by a populist demagogue leader
Before been officially nominated as a president, he had made certain peace offerings to the Russians but they have rejected all of them, the accords made between capitalists are not based on friendship, they are based on their own interests
The Russians are not fools, and the main objectives of their invasion to Ukraine are still on the negotiation table, and they are not going to give to the USA a big piece of the cake, that is a war for natural resources, routes and spheres of influences
And the same principle must be applied to the Syrian rebels, the honeymoon is not going to last too long, they are going to be removed too by the main external forces involved in the conflict, they were just used as pawn to remove the Syrian government, and the fight will continue in a wider scale.
The British capitalists have not removed them from their terrorist list

The USA has had contacts with them, but they have offered them certain conditions, I think neither one them are going to comply with those conditions. Israel will continue being the main target of those Islamist groups
https://www.npr.org/2024/12/15/nx-s1-5229536/us-syrian-rebel-group-htsThe looting of the Syrian resources and its territories will continue, and Israel will continue taking more lands and weaken the government of Iran
https://consortiumnews.com/2024/12/29/six-scenarios-for-syria/. Six scenarios for Syria
t is naive to assume that the current regime in Syria will remain in place — as it is — going forward.Syria is now in a state of uneasy transition and the political-military situation will remain in flux as long as the conflicts between the various armed and civic groups are not resolved.

Another commercial and capitalist production agreement made by Joe Biden with the Vietnamese leadership, no more talks about communist threats after thousands of human beings were killed by both sides, the article written by the Socialist Party about the Vietcong and the so called national liberation was totally correct
The capitalists know as an American state minister said about the Soviet Union: it is state capitalism, probably, they are more aware than several leftwing groups who continue claiming that Vietnam is a socialist country, but they call it market socialism, they have thrown away Marx’s Das Kapital
They have placed the Vietnamese workers on a silver plate for the western capitalists, allowing them to extract surplus value from their labor, and both sides became super rich and workers are continue living in extreme poverty and the western capitalists blame the problem on communism
Ho Chi Min was an old friend and allied of the Western capitalists, ( the same as Joseph Stalins ) therefore, it is the renovation of an old alliance with his followers known as the vietcong
All presidents are the continuators of the prior policies of other presidents and when they leave the White House they are canonized by the capitalist class and the corporate press and if they were war criminals they become humanitarians, pro-labors and defenders of human rights
https://asiatimes.com/2023/03/the-us-cannot-afford-to-repeat-the-mistakes-of-1979/. Jimmy Carter and Ten Hsiao Ping, and supporting China military attack against Vietnam which produced thousands of deaths on both sides . The US historians have two set of books like the ex-bookkeepers of the sicilian mafia
On that occasion China did not apply the reactionary so-called Three world theory created by Mao Tse Tung, in which the USA and Russia were enemies number one, and the biggest world threat according to the Chinese leaders, the only threat was the Soviet Union .
China made alliance with many reactionaries governments around the whole world, and the Maoists were saying that the economic was socialists, and capitalist investment would not affect the economic base of the society, and workers would benefits ( it sound like Lenin state capitalism ) and it created a big division among the Maoist movement and the emerge of the so called Albanian tendency.
Now China is the biggest competitor for world hegemony against the USA, and enemy number one of the USA capitalist class, it sounds like the period before WW2 and during WW 2 in regard to Germany .
As Thomas More has said: Why burn books when people are not reading them ? That event was widely published in the Peking Review, Albania Today and Russia Today and some US newspapers. In that time we were reading books, newspapers, pamphlets, magazines and listening broadcasting in shortwave radios
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn446nmjp1vo. The main concern was not the diplomats’ ties, the main concern was to establish factories in China, and then they blamed the lack of jobs on the emigrants, that move was also done by Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton. The real replacement was done by the capitalist class.
History is a tragedy the first time, and like a farce on the second time

Richard Nixon visit to China, someone that I knew said: Mao is placing the so called Chinese revolution on the floor on a red carpet, but in reality it was a pro capitalist revolution carried on later with the so called four modernizations and the development of capitalism in China
https://www.hrw.org/legacy/campaigns/china-98/visit.htm. Bill Clinton visited China, profits first and human rights later. The character of the state did not end with one particular capitalist administration it continue its mission, It is the executive apparatus to manage the affairs of the capitalist class

This is a very detailed historical description of the Carter administration. They are saying that Trumpism is a cult, but Carter is also a capitalist cult, one created by the Republicans and the other one created by the Democrats,
