It has been over forty years since I watched the television program 60 minutes....because it is a Lord's Day program....and God commanded us to reserve this day for Him....which is a great blessing to those who try to do so in this modern world. Just a few days ago I was in a conversation with a friend on the topic. I told him that I had worked shifts for 37 years....which meant 37 years of often working on the Lord's Day. I told him that it would be difficult to live in a warm home on a cold winter night....when someone else had to be working to generate the electricity. There is a difference between running equipment that produces heat for people....and sitting down on a Lord's Day....after a worship service....and spending a few hours watching the Masters tournament....all the while maybe showing more emotion and attention than was given while in the worship service.
So in the news this Monday morning....Trump was tweeting that he wants CBS to lose their license because....(the latest offense according to him)....the 60 Minutes program last evening presented the issue of Greenland in a way that was not acceptable to him. This is going on everywhere with him folks. It is attempts at tyranny and totalitarianism the likes of which even the Left feared to tread. So I booted up the broadcast on Greenland....it was about seventeen minutes....and it was very informative.
The Prime Minister said that according to a treaty from the 50s....America could do anything that they wanted militarily on Greenland. No....this is about money. He said that everyone in Greenland was scratching their head on why Trump wanted it so bad. There was though one comment that he made that I had wondered about before....Greenland is under the protection of NATO.....and if the United States invaded Greenland....then it would require a response from NATO....which according to the Prime Minister....would effectually destroy the mission and even the existence of NATO. Why is it that Trump hates NATO so much? One obvious possibility is that Putin hates Nato even more.
