I wonder what the probability is that Iraq signed off on the Israeli airstrike...

 

How else would the planes reach Iranian airspace? (Unless they got KSA's permission)

Of the two choices, I would assume this is more likely -- but I'm not certain.

 

Far more likely.  The Saudis and Israelis were discussing overfly rights and cooperation against Iran ten years ago.  Undoubtedly they've had the groundwork laid for this sort of cooperation for a while.

Can someone rationally explain the whole Greenland purchase thing? 

Well, it's not as irrational as trying to get Mexico to pay for building a wall, but it's up there. 

 

He threw a temper tantrum over the refusal to sell it I see

Start with a globe and then map out the shipping routes in a warming Arctic Ocean.

To where,  Russia?  Why not buy Canada while he's at it?  

 

 

 

He's accepting Global warming now?  

 

Even with melting ice caps those routes would be closed half of the year.   Is that really productive?  

 

It's not the Panama Canal. 

 

 

Another stupid idea to deflect another stupid idea is my guess.

That's a myth. There was no big ice age story. Maybe a few stories but nothing anywhere near the story of global warming. Oil company propaganda

  You're spouting uninformed nonsense.  The notion of a soon arriving Ice Age was pushed very heavily back in the 1970's.  I remember reading about it in the school provided science periodicals.  Probably still got the darn articles someplace as I seldom throw anything out.  The same periodicals that talked about birth defects due to electromagnetic radiation from high voltage lines.  Did your mother live near a Niagara-Mohawk line while pregnant with you?

Are you smarter than a 5th grader?

 

What's the fastest route to Asia from the East Coast ports?
