Beautiful, but definitely not worth invading or sending our troops to take over, if you don't awfully mind Mr. President.

Somebody is likely to take it at some point, for strategic military and resource purposes.

Denmark took it centuries ago, and that's how it should stay unless or until the Greenlandic people decide otherwise.
