I thought of the best reason of all for the US to grab Greenland: Interment camp.
In particular, interment camp for illegals from warm countries. We build a camp north of the Arctic circle, near enough the ocean that polar bears can serve as guards. Provide enough fuel that they can heat their quonset huts to 50F over the winter, or to 75F for half of the winter, their choice.
Sure, we could do the same in Alaska, but that wouldn’t cause enough outrage.
Greenland Territory: protectorate of the United States. An idea whose time has come.
