  Bombs have a 20% accuracy rate, where “on target” is about 2 football fields around the target lol.

  Since when, WW2? And the type of bomb I was referring are things like this.

  It would take ten of those to wipe out the Greenlanders as thoroughly as the historic genocide of the Native Americans.

    Per your link: The MOAB was used once, has a 1 mile blast radius, and based on reports killed “only terrorists - 90 of them” “a bunch of people including teachers and students” and “no one”

    Hardly definitive. Also, a 1 mile bomb killing fewer than 100 people?

      The MOAB was used to destroy a tunnel complex in Afghanistan. It killed around 100 people in a well fortified underground network. Imagine what it could do to a city or large town.

      Your population density argument is bad, a third of the island lives in Nuuk.

        And was dropped approximately 100-200 meters (ie 1-2 football fields) off target.

      You need to improve your basic logic skills.

        I’ll happily concede if you’ve got a source?

  Sure, but may I suggest: More bombs

    Sure, just name a conflict that was resolved by bombing, with the exception of Hiroshima/Nagasaki- which im not counting because those were nukes, and Japan was on the verge of surrender anyway.

      The comment just said that you could genocide most of the population. Not that it would resolve a conflict

        A fair correction. I’ll counter than the USA dropped more bombs than WW2 total on Vietnam, including dropping 100,000 tons of bombs on a 40 mile² area and a) didn’t kill everyone, b) didn’t even bomb every settlement in that area and c) lost.
