France is pledging tanks and armored vehicles to bolster NATO forces in Poland, where leaders are increasingly uneasy about Russia.

Shoots quickly, and can scoot. Good tank, on paper.
According to Wiki, 1 projectile every 5 seconds, and 0 to 30mph in under 6 seconds.
Ansel12 why bother with Romney, we have Obama as President. Isn’t that more relevant?
What the heck do you mean?
>> Poland is on the front against Russia again, but this time we are there.
Yes.
“Nobel Peace Prize laureate 0bama’s foreign policy”
Yeah, the No-bel Dumbell Committee granted him an ‘anticipatory’ award. A reward to encourage future behavior. They are so ‘smart’, I wish they had graded me in school.
Yippee. For two WHOLE months !
Russian aggression is not driven by NATO expansion. That’s just nonsense. If NATO hadn’t accepted the new free states of central Europe, the Russians would have already parked their tanks back along the Baltic.
I remember there was a rush to get the missile shield installed before obama’s election
I explained this previously. In the debates Romney said he thought the biggest future foreign policy problem would be Russia. Obama snarkily replied (with something I bet he had ready to use as needed) “The 1980s are calling and they want their foreign policy back.
It was intended to make Romney look stupid but now we see that Russia again has become a problem - potentially a very big one. As usual the arrogant Obama is wrong but he got what he wanted so what does he care.
The draft dodging Romney, son of the 1968 antiwar presidential candidate and someone who has wanted to homosexualize the military for decades, doesn’t know anything about foreign policy, he just repeated what his handlers told him to say.
A stupid place to be’
We were there the last time, the British and French,IIRR they wound up in Dunkirk.
I disagree. They are a fighting force that sends a message.
Dunkirk wasn’t really in Poland, look it up, and Poland was not an American ally at the time, and part of our NATO alliance.
How weak and submissive, and pro Russian are you?
The French and British had a security treaty alliance with Poland. When Germany and Russia invaded, the British army was chased out of Europe by the Nazis. It was a fiasco.
We have been allied with France and England for more than the last 100 years, and still are today.
Seems like you're hell bent on starting WW3.
Actually it seems like you are hell bent on serving our enemies and want Russia to invade Poland AGAIN, just like they did when they and their Nazi allies started WWII.
Today your side is weaker, Finland isn’t in NATO, but Poland and Germany are, and you are making Finland think about joining our alliance of protection from you guys.
Finland isn’t in NATO
Smart move on Finland's part. A good example to be followed by Ukraine and east Europe.
Today your side is weaker
My side is the USA, but I get your point, you are exactly right. Russia is weak, so lets dismember them further is the most important thing in your life?
That's rather risky, dangerous and sick.
Russia was allied with Hitler in their invasion of Poland, and here you are supporting them again, and as Ukraine is falling to Russian invasion, you are calling them smart for not having joined NATO to prevent being conquered by Russia.
Just as you want Finland to not join America/NATO to defend themselves from Russia,
You are nuttier than a fruitcake in supporting your side, which is Russia.
