Trump Orders Greenland Attack Plan, US Military Revolts: 'Arbitrariness Won't Work'
- •US President Donald Trump ordered the military to prepare a plan to seize Greenland, a move met with strong opposition from top US military officials.
- •Advisors like Stephen Miller are reportedly pushing the plan, believing the US should act before Russia or China strengthen their grip on Greenland.
- •British diplomats suggest Trump's motive is partly domestic politics, aiming to divert attention from economic issues ahead of midterm elections.
- •The US military's Joint Chiefs of Staff opposed the plan, citing international law violations and lack of Congressional support.
- •Military officials are reportedly trying to distract Trump with alternative actions like stopping Russian 'ghost ships' or limited action against Iran.
