GREEDLAND IS MINE!

THOSE GREENLANDERS ARE NOT VERY NICE
IF THEY THINK THEY HAVE TROUBLE WITH "ICE"
LET THEM SEE WHAT'S IN STORE
WHEN I SEND THEM SOME MORE!
NOT A "WAR", JUST "DEFENCE" FOR A PRICE.

I'LL RESERVE THEM A SMALL PIECE OF LAND
CALL IT TUNDRA...OH, WON'T IT BE GRAND?
THERE'LL BE NOTHING TO FEED'EM
BUT AT LEAST THEY'LL HAVE FREEDOM
MY NEW GREED-DOM, JUST LIKE I PLANNED!
