No. That is not the law. A state needs to have an effective government to be a state. It does not need to have a strong army. Costa Rica abolished its army a long time ago - that does not mean you can now just seize it.
Miller: Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and a tiny military. They cannot defend Greenland… Under every understanding of law that has existed about territorial control for 500 years, to control a territory you have to be able to defend a territory…

Shades of Australia Season 2, where getting a Traitor (in this case two) out early on leaves everyone convinced that the initial weak play everyone initially does is actually brilliant, and so basically don't improve or hone there skills at all when it matters.

Did no one tell the faithful this year that they were allowed to look for actual evidence?

This person, my son, earned a Pulitzer Prize. If he gave it to me, it would still be his. I am a rational person who fully realizes that i did not earn a Pulitzer Prize.

( of course i wouldn’t accept it)

"Why would anyone hand the keys back to these people [the Conservative Party] to take the country forward and hope that they would fix it" says Robert Jenrick, who was a Conservative Party Shadow Minister until just a few hours ago, and has been plotting to take it over for years

Robert Jenrick asked why he lied last week when he told the Telegraph that he would "never, ever" defect to Reform.

Jenrick replies that joining Reform was "the most honest thing" he could have done.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Jenrick on Farage:

"I don't think Nigel is the bloke you want to have running your kids' schools or running your local hospital or... trust your savings, your pension, your small business to." (Sept 2025)

"I don't think he's a serious politician. I don't think he's got the answers." (Oct 2024)

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

The starting point "Denmark cannot defend the territory" is misleading nonsense - given that Denmark allows the US to maintain military bases there
The Reform UK supporting Telegraph running a comment piece from a US CEO and president of the Palm Beach Freedom Institute about why Greenland belongs to the US is the hight of uninformed nonsense.

Greenland belongs in the United States
Denmark cannot defend the territory. It is too strategically important for the US to leave it vulnerable to potential Chinese control

This is absolutely what happened.
He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.
