2. Ya, who do they think they are!
Greenland should be enough for them.

The Netherlands owes us one. We could use it as a staging ground.

3. We could invade
just the island. Put a new military base there. :bounce:

Or just draw a line down the middle of it, and compare beers at joint meetings.

6. Oddly I'm with you
I really think it's be SO cool to have the Island owned jointly by the two. THen we could share patrolling.

Try explaining that to the Danes.... mount your belugas draw your swords!

We know it's there because we can smell it!

W.M.C. - Those Danes have been hiding Weapons of Mass Cheese that at any moment could rain gouda and munster upon our cities! You know, we don't want the smoking gun to be a sour bag of goat cheese! Imagine the odor!

We must act now!

11. Well, there's that big country directly to the south of us.
Right now all their military are off doing god-knows-what god-knows-where, so they're undefended right now. And I'll bet we could find some like-minded citizens to act as a fifth column. It'll all be over by Christmas.

13. I don't know about this one
all that's directly south of me is Montana. Another whole lot of nothing. However, maybe Canadian DUers could get up a collection for me to invade New Orleans, say around Mardi Gras time. I'm up for that.

12. I'm not so sure about that ...
It's only been a thousand years since they were the scourge of Europe! I still don't buy their image makeover, where they innocently make furniture, cheese, etc. -- I think they're just waiting for their opportunity to come round again.

14. Yes, I'm in. I can pretend to be Canadian for the duration
Why stop short with Hans Island? We'll take Greenland, the Faroe Islands and install a puppet government in Denmark itself.

100,000 Canadians brutally-armed with hockey sticks and equipped in full hocket gear should do the job.

17. Denmark sends navy ship toward disputed island
COPENHAGEN — A Danish navy ship was heading today toward a small, wind-swept island off northwestern Greenland that is at the centre of a diplomatic spat with Canada.

The Arctic patrol cutter Tulugaq will attempt to reach the 1.3-square-kilometre Hans Island, which is claimed by both countries, in late August if the ice permits, navy spokesman Alex Jensen said.

"If we manage to reach the island, we will hoist a new Danish flag. We're trying to change the flags as often as possible because they are quickly torn apart by the strong winds," Jensen said by telephone from the Danish navy base on Greenland's west coast.

Using ships and dogsleds, the Danish navy patrols Greenland's roughly 40,000-kilometre-long coastline, equal to the length of the equator.

18. That's your best sig pic, ever!! LOL!!
Especially as one of the following scenarios is necessary:

a) the penguins came all the way to the Arctic to harass the polar bear, or

b) the polar bear went to Antarctica for some R&R, and ran into the most obnoxious penguins in town.

19. An update
Danish officials in a warship are on their way to plant a flag on an Arctic island near Greenland, in the latest move of a territorial dispute between Copenhagen and Ottawa.

Danish authorities said the crew will plant another Danish flag on the 1.3-square-kilometre Hans Island, which lies off the northwest coast of Greenland and has been claimed by both Canada and Denmark.

Danish officials said the last flag blew down.
