    This oompa loompa looking motherfucker probably couldn’t even point to Iceland on a map. These backwater idiots need to just die already.

        Funny; I joined Lemmy today in hopes of a slightly higher standard of discourse than the last platform. But, I have to admit, that’s very accurate… well done.

      That’s insulting to Oompa Loompas. Dude is Humpty Dumpty. These guys are really on the expansionist vibe. They just rooked the Americans and they think they can con the rest of us like we don’t let our people go to actual school or something?!

    "I apologise it was taken that way. I was with a group of friends and there was nothing serious about it.”

    Haven’t we heard that enough by now to know that’s a pathetic, bullshit excuse? What you say with friends reveals something about you and how you think. The guy could’ve said nothing and he’d have been fine, but for some reason the idea of taking over Iceland was in his mind and for some reason he felt comfortable making light of it. If infringing on another country’s sovereignty is such a non-issue that he feels comfortable joking about it, he’s clearly not fit to be an ambassador. (Though as a Trump-appointee, it’s hardly surprising he’s not fit for the job.)

    I think Finland would have said bye bye to him for that. USA could then have sent someone else to replace him.
    Iceland cannot, because it doesn’t have an army of its own.

      Nah, the US is going for the “easy” targets first.

      My guess for the order is Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Canada with other small Middle American countries sprinkled after Mexico and during/after Canada.

      I just hope the US implodes first.

        The US cant even maintain a war against rice farmers. They arent going to sustain wars against that many countries with hostile populations. The US military may be the best in the world but the US itself can barely hold itself together, let alone new territory.

        Also if they invade us I will personally go down the Geneva Convention list and implement every war crime imaginable.

    Let’s see how US ambassadors and diplomats will feel in 5 years, with all the bridges to allies that are currently being burned.

      They won’t be ambassadors by then, they will either agree to become quasi-military emissaries to negotiate concessions and surrenders to our dominion, or they will be retired or just killed.

      Hey, then we can redundant their positions, what with the having no allies. Think of the money we could save on their salaries and flying them around. No downside at all. This is winning, right?

    Nice of him to summarize his entire political decision-making framework for us.

    This Jabba the Hutt motherfucker was my rep when I used to live in that part of Missouri. He is one of the most disgusting people I’ve ever seen.
