Soon: EU says ‘too early’ to assess legality of US attack on Greenland

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 26 points 3 months ago

It will magically be too early until it is conveniently too late

The EUrocrats' unprecedented levels of "monitoring the situation" and "too early to assess the legality" are as shameless as they are predictable.

These lapdogs deserve all the humiliation they've been experiencing and that which is yet to come.

I fucking hate living in the EU sometimes, fucking spineless bureaucratic dweebs.

The sad thing is I think Yanis is right, EU institutions, if used properly, could jumpstart socialist development in the entire union but it will never happen because the people that run them are absolute ghouls.

when someone tells you who they are, believe them.

Okay, yeah, sure

And when we invade Greenland it'll also be too early to assess the legality of the invasion

I dont give a fuck about greenland. They've been on board with every disgusting act of terrorism by the US, and even helped them with most of the action.

Fuck the EU and all it's dick suckers on lemmy

Meanwhile they are pissing and moaning over the Evil Empire's threats to occupy and annex Greenland. Then Washington acting like gangsters is suddenly bad - but not so bad that these cowardly little Eichmanns dare do anything to get out of the Evil Empire's chains.

"EU says too early to assess legality of German attack of Poland" September 1939

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 3 months ago

I was thinking more austria but maybe czechoslovakia would be more apt.

[-] BrikoX@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Greenland would be more valid example as EU was only formed in 1993.

Glorious mission Trump, please send law enforcement helicopters to Nuuk next, lot of rare Earth minerals and land is there, it's free Greenland, safer than Venezuela, thanks.
