never claimed we could make the world do what we want, only that people threatening to not be our ally was a laughable threat. afghanistan was a mistake - period. we should never have been there and it is an example of what happens when we try to fight people rather than nations, we could beat any nation easily but fighting people is like playing wack-a-mole.  that said, there are like 50k people in greenland. pretty sure we don't have to worry about playing wack-a-mole like we did in afghanistan lol.
