According to many geopolitical commentators and experts President Trump's decision to seize Greenland from Denmark, should he go through with it, will have immediate ramifications.
European leaders have threatened to remove U.S. bases from Europe and leave NATO altogether.
It appears that Europe will make a stand in Greenland. It will be its Alamo in the 21st century.
Maybe the conflict won't reach that point and things will cool down, with Denmark and its European allies offering an olive branch. Perhaps the territory of Greenland will get sliced up into two or three sovereign jurisdictions.
Whatever the outcome it's clear new geopolitical fault lines will be drawn as America and Europe go their separate ways.
Since Europe is becoming more Islamic by the day it's possible that behind the scenes the Zionist handlers of Trump are advising him to divorce America's future from that of Europe's.
We should not assume that Europe will remain Europe, with its secular heritage, open cultures, and homogeneous populations. An Islamic curtain is falling on the continent unfortunately.
Recently there was an Austrian leader who said publicly that Austrian women will be forced to wear the hijab in the future out of a sense of "solidarity." This is the level of madness that has penetrated European public discourse and officialdom.
It is entirely possible that nations like Austria, Germany and the United Kingdom, which have large Muslim populations, will join the new Islamic alliance that is being spearheaded by Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
Should NATO collapse and European nations seek new alliances and security arrangements, this could be one of them.
Germany has a close relationship with Turkey, and the U.K. basically fathered Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. So an official alliance between these countries is in the cards.
On the other side, I could see an alliance emerging in West Asia that includes a nationalist Iran under a new democratic regime, Israel, the Kurds, Egypt and Greece.
Israel understands that a revitalised Ottoman Empire with Syria, Lebanon, and parts of Iraq in its geopolitical orbit poses a greater danger to its security than the feeble Ayatollahs in Iran. They are planning for the day when the Ottomans come knocking.
Everybody in the Middle East and Eastern Europe has painful memories of the Ottomans, much like Ukraine has with Russia. The images of ISIS banners and Turkish tanks in Syria don't fill people with confidence that Syria and the region is headed in the right direction. So naturally these nations, many of them minorities, will seek an alliance together.
It must be remembered that the Greeks, Persians, Jews, Kurds and other various groups like the Druze, are minorities in this region. The Arabs and Turks have traditionally dominated the landscape and history of the Middle East in the last 500 years. Iran has historically been more of a power in Central Asia and the Caucasus. And under a new regime it will look eastward while Turkey looks south towards the Levant and Israel.
An alliance against radical Islam involving Israel, Iran, Greece, the Kurds, and Egypt seems the most natural in a post-Islamic Republic Middle East.
And I could see America playing both sides, with one foot in the Turkish-Pakistani-Saudi camp, and one foot in the other camp.
As for Russia and China, they will continue to be the pragmatic adults in the room, making deals with everyone and enriching themselves at every turn.
China's wise leaders have foreign policy figured out. No wars, only trade deals.
