Dänemark entsandte zwischen 2002 und 2013 9.500 Soldaten nach Afghanistan. 43 dänische Soldaten starben in Afghanistan, der höchste Pro-Kopf-Verlust in der NATO-Koalition.

You’re missing [Dancon ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancon/Irak), the occupation forces in Iraq.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander and all that.
Won’t be doing that again.
This means helping the US is useless since they can attack you at any time for whatever reason.
Should never have got involved, let the people of Afghanistan govern themselves as they please. These kind of neocolonial projects for ‚democracy and education‘ are a waste of time.
Notice how we were all talking about Venezuela, and now Greenland.
Drowned out the Epstein files. Almost like a planned distraction.
We pay our own mistakes, we should never support the US imperialism, never again. I feel so sorry for my danish and Greenlandic friends. Imagine how the families of these 43 people are feeling now and people from the kingdom of Denmark in general, such a tragic irony.
Don’t worry – they threaten us too all the time, and every single American on Reddit always tells us its either not a real threat or that the course will be corrected in 4… 8… 12… years time. Gotta wait to see who ascends to the throne.
And when I was playing „Capital America“ (i.e., America is Great) too much in law school in Sweden, and the snotty French students were picking on me, it was the Great Danes who came to my rescue and said there were many grave sites for US soldiers in the Netherlands, so they could be free. Oh, fair sweet Denmark, Fear NOT! For we shall impeach this business organization called Trump 2.0. Europe’s blood is our blood. F this Fox News psychos in the A. They are just making money and false patriotic nonsense. Reagan did it better!
This is what happens when idiots are standing in the shoulders of giants. Trump is just a cunt
And this sub shits on countries for not being in nato. Exhibit A.
Many europeans here still harbor this illusion that American is an „ally“ and „friend“. Many forget that US is an empire, any so called „allies“ are disposable asset to further American interest. Danes died for American war? Good, move on. The minute American interest is infringed upon, you will instantly become an enemy and adversary. You only on American’s good term and an „ally“ as long as you keep sacrificing and give in to American greed. And remember, American interest spans the globe.
If Trump gives a shit about consent dealing with a minor, what makes us think he cares about…. agreements among nations done before his time?
Trump did not agree with anyone that having sex with children is not ok.
In his Universe, that does not apply to him.
Same with agreements among nations.
It doesnt apply to him.
Why?
Literally what threat was the Taliban to Denmark?
80 to 100k US troops stationed across Europe. Trump was right about one thing, Europe depends completely on America for defence except for the French. EU and European leaders have been spineless and ar se licking toward trump since day one. Sad!
Respect to the Danish and those who lost life and limb for such a stupid war that in the end fixed nothing
Europeans seem to be in denial about the US. They talk about Putin, Russia, Epstein scandals, but they never acknowledge their own responsibility for handing the US control over their foreign policy and security.
They also don’t want to make new trade partners (like the Mercosur deal) unless the terms are 100% in their favor.
Im not happy about greenland situation but it’s hard to ignore that Europe is now getting a taste of what U.S. power has felt like to others for a long time.
The US is unredeemable at this point. Fuck’em, let’s move on. Let the rest of the Western World band together, stick together, and move on. This Canadian wants nothing to do with the USa. I want to see us align with the adult parties of the EU. Not you, Slovakia and Hungary, sit the fuck down!
It’s too late to complain now or take any real measures you all helped usa to become the strongest bully in the world. You helped their economy. You invested in American dollars. You helped their imperialistic plans either by helping them invading and bullying other nations directly or ignoring their war crimes. You build the eu to be dependent to the usa. Now it’s too late to take action. We failed!
Yeah, and then all Denmark sent to Greenland to keep America Number One was an extra dog sled…
R.I.P. the heroes.
Don Dump doesn’t care!
Spain sent Bernardo de Galvez’s expedition to fight the british and help the US to get their Independence. They fought hard against one of the best trained and equiped army in that times.
Less than hundred years later, the US attacked Spain under false pretense to steal the colonies Spain still had.
They are ungrateful bullies. They didn’t care about the sacrifices their allies did for them.
The disrespect is palpable.
There is a great documentary called Armadillo that follows some danish soldiers in Afghanistan in 2009. Not the point of the post but it’s semi relevant.
Yep us Europeans need to come together now more than ever. I never wanted us (UK) to leave the EU and I hope if anything good comes out of all this we will get back to being close with our fellow Europeans. Putin and Trump are trying to tear our continent apart and we need to stick together. Not forgetting Canada and others outside of Europe that have realised the US can’t be trusted.
