Every now and then, I like to Suggest that We Conquer Greenland.
And whenever I do, everyone likes to Complain to me about how Cold it is
and that there's nothing to do. Aren't you the same People who use
"Desert" as a Pejorative (never Mind how much of Our History is in
those Deserts, apparently) and Post Incessantly about "Going Off The
Grid"? I guess you want to be Off The Grid in a Temperate
Environment. Let me know how that works out for you, since you're also
the ones who always say "Remember Ruby Ridge?" and "Remember
Waco?" whenever someone Suggests an Enclave of any Sort in such a Region
(never Mind all the Enclaves that are Thriving, as those are in other Climates,
like Orania or the ones in South America). But I think I have a few
Statistics and Concepts that will Interest you:
Greenland is The Least Dense Country On Earth, and There Are No
Inter-Settlement Roads. Greenland Is 65 Times Less Dense Than Mongolia, and
that's even Despite that 4/5ths Live just in The Southwest. Telecommunications
are Monopolized by one Company. This is a Tactician's Wet Dream.
Go Ahead, Have Your
Enclave; as long as it Appears Innocuous from the Outside, the Internal
Proceedings won't have anyone Bothering you. Even if We are The Laziest
Re-Conquistador Generation Yet, We could have Decent Lives just in Our
Villages. What a Glorious Age of Technology this is, where even a Remote,
Primitively-Constructed Village can have Wi-Fi.
Our Ancestors did it without WiFi or anywhere near such Knowledge as has been made Available to Us, and they didn't even have Firearms, Snowmobiles, Snowplows, Motorboats, Airplanes and Over 1,000 Years of History to Build on for the Rapid Expansion of a New Political Party.

Think about it: "Qivitoq"
Attack and a Documentary Crew goes out to Investigate. They become so
Enamored with it, they Settle. They Form a new Militia for the Protection
of these Villages, and become Increasingly Vocal about an Avaricious Regime
that Lacks Compassion for either Inuit or Danish. No one will Suspect
these People are Allied with the ones Killing
the Inuit, Miscegenators and any other Deviants. After all,
they were Present when there were Attacks. Maybe, We even Recruit some
Expendable Student Filmmaker who Provides the Necessary Equipment and the
Martyrdom when he or she becomes a Victim of a "Qivitoc" Attack.
Ideally, the Terror will be Captured on Film... but nothing Revealing
about the Perpetrator(s). We could Dress in Hides and Adorn Our Heads
with those of Wolves or Reindeer. Antler-Mutilated Bodies would Help to
Sell The Legend, as would Entrails up in Trees or Half-Devoured Animals
sticking just enough out of the Snow or from between Rocks to be Discovered.
It is a Simple Effect to Fabricate, to make it Appear that Victims have
been Cannibalized. If someone is not Squeamish about
those he Culls or which are Necessary Sacrifices, he can so Disfigure
his Victims so it Appears that They were still Alive when he Ate Them. It
will not be Difficult to Frame an Inuit for this, since They are the Actual
Inspiration for the Legend.
Besides, They
Attacked Vikings who were The First Nations' Peoples of Southeast Greenland.
This Presents Another Possibility. However Deranged this
"Qivitoc" are to be Portrayed, We could Dispense with the
Cannibalistic Imagery that I would otherwise find quite Compelling and Insist -
if We are Captured - that We are Leifurs. That is, Leifur's. Leifur
Eiriksson's. We will Refer to Inuit as Skrælingi (Plural: Skrælingjar),
but have Better either Learn Ancient Icelandic, Old Norse or at least Danish
(Preferably, Utilizing not merely more Archaic Words but the Proper
Pronunciations of these) or a Combination thereof. We could always Claim
to have Sheltered the Lost and Runaways, to both Add a Romantic Element to Our
Culture (which should see itself as in a Holy Racial War, as Vikings had by
then Converted to Christianity) and Explain how We would Know any Danish,
English or other Languages that We would have Learned from Stranded Hikers who
Found Appear in Our Cult. We would, of course, Develop Our Own Blend and
New Words from Combinations of these and Along the Rules of these Different
European Languages, and Concentrate on Concealing Our Accent so it is Convincing
to even The Best-Trained Linguists that Ours is a Language some 1,000 Years In
The Making.
I don't see why We can't do both. But, of course, I am as Romantic as Pragmatic. Perhaps you want to go back to more Traditional Forms of Guerrilla Warfare, as Ironic as that Sounds. Suit yourself. Either way, I'll have my Pack of Greenlandic Dogs and some of those Howls in the Moonlight will be me Fostering Legends. Also, "Greenlandic Dogs" would make an Excellent Name for a Motorcycle Gang... once We have more Roads.

They Are Begging Us
To Conquer Them. Let's Not Disappoint.
