Is NATO about to collapse?

Published: January 8 2026

The United States is openly threatening to take Greenland, a self-governing territory linked to Denmark and therefore to NATO.
That creates a crisis no one planned for. What happens when a NATO member threatens another NATO member?

But this is not about Greenland alone. It is about whether collective security, international law, and European sovereignty still mean anything. In political economy, this is a massive deal affecting all our futures.

Venezuela has been invaded.

Its President has been seized.

The international legal order is in disarray.

And   what is Europe wanting to talk about? Greenland.

Greenland has become the epicentre of European concern over this issue   because, well, Venezuela is a long way away, and Trump’s threat to Greenland, made repeatedly, now feels very real, and it’s an existential threat to NATO and to international law, and that makes it worth talking about.

Let’s be clear. Greenland is enormous.  It’s about a quarter of the size of Europe, but it has a population of just 50,000 or so people, and   that combination matters. It has a small population and a huge landmass. It’s almost impossible to defend, but it has a strategic location, and that makes it of interest to Trump.

But there is no legal justification for the claim that he’s making that the US must take possession of Greenland.  It does not threaten US security. There is no   conceivable UN mandate for the USA taking over Greenland, and there is, therefore, no lawful basis under international law on which he can claim the right to this territory. But Donald Trump keeps repeating the claim that he wants it, and that alone should alarm us.

The real motive that Trump has is, after all, about extractive fantasy. He wants Greenland because he believes that when the ice melts, which his friends in the petrochemical industry are doing all they can to help,  there will be vast mineral wealth beneath the Greenland tundra. It does   not matter that there may be no market by the time that the ice cap has melted. He believes there will be value, and that is what this is about. Even though the possibility of realising that value is next to zero, he wants to control it, and  Greenland’s current status as a self-governing territory of Denmark is, in his opinion, an impediment to that.

Something everyone said would never happen will happen, whatever the reason and whenever the cause, Europe and America will separate from NATO and this is based on Bible Prophecy.  But its surprising how fast things are changing and few if any would have seen this coming.

What is also interesting is the EU is saying they need to Re-Arm and President Emmanual Macron says that the EU needs hundreds of billions in defense spending.

President Macron is also on record saying he wants to bring Russia back to the negotiating table and begin dialogue on some form of a Security Pact with Russia, NATO’s existence in its current form will be an issue even more so now.

The Bible has long revealed that Russia and an EU Army will enter into a final conflict with Israel and the Middle East.  Germany is the key country in what Bible Prophecy refers to as the land of “Magog”. They are spoken of militarily as the “King of the North”.  Together the Bible says that Russia and the EU will invade the Middle East in the Last Days.  So Bible Students expect to see Germany and France taking a greater role in leading Europe.  It is also interesting to see Germany taking greater control of a continent they tried to take by war and failed.

Yet again we see in Todays News Headlines words that show how the Nations are fulfilling the latter day alignment of Nations as Prophesied by the Bible.
