On Tuesday, Greenland’s parliament ratified a security agreement with the United States and Denmark that authorizes new U.S. military bases and the deployment of the Golden Dome missile defense system.

• Lawmakers approved it 16-0, with seven abstentions.
• The Danish parliament is expected to hold its final vote on November 19.

During the Cold War, military planners in Canada, Denmark and the U.S. knew that a Soviet nuclear attack on North America would likely come via intercontinental ballistic missiles crossing the Arctic Ocean. These three nations worked together to create the rca 474L Ballistic Missile Early-Warning System at Clear Space Force Station in Alaska and at Site J near Pituffik Space Base in Greenland.

• This system tracked Soviet icbm activity for decades until it was replaced by the Solid State Phased Array Radar System in 1987.
• President Trump wants to leverage the sspars radar in Greenland as a key early-warning asset for his new missile defense shield.

This new deal has no end date and obligates Greenland, should it become independent from Denmark, to remain in nato and assume Denmark’s obligations.

• It also bars non-nato nations from establishing a military presence on the island, whether manned or unmanned, unless all three signatories agree otherwise.

Bible prophecy reveals that President Trump is securing America from the wrong adversary. He sees the threat from Russia and China. He is blind to the threat from Europe.

• Jeremiah 8 is an end-time prophecy of a time when watchmen from the tribe of Dan fail to stop a Babylonian invasion of Israel.
• The United States and the British Commonwealth nations descended from the biblical patriarch Joseph: France from Joseph’s brother Reuben; the Jews from another brother, Judah; the Irish and Danites from another brother, Dan.

“The Fight for Greenland,” in our February Trumpet issue, makes the case that in the event of a nuclear strike on North America, troops at Pituffik Space Base are among the likeliest to hear “the snorting of his horses” and “the neighing of his strong ones” (Jeremiah 8:16). Yet Jeremiah’s prophecy indicates that, for one reason or another, those who hear the approaching army will fail to act.
