So Russians will get to practice against our artillery.. wow

By the time it will take to train the crews and those that maintain the tank the war will be over. Unless those crews and maintenance personnel are “private contractors”. This is so getting out of hand. Just a matter of time.

This is dumb. What a waste.

Ukraine will turn into a military barracks for America and Europe. Why don't you seek peace instead of blowing on the fire of war to increase its ignition?

What’s more money right?

i can see the arguments against sending them but we have consistently underestimated the Ukrainians. So i say it’s worth taking a chance.

Leopard Tank was developed by the Nazis. Now the old Nazis are giving their old Nazi Collaborators, the Ukraine, latest version of that Nazi technology to kill the guys who Liberated Auschwitz, the Russians. Try giving Pinocchios for these FACTS, Wapo.

The US hawks want War in EUROPE, thus answering the injunctions of the private shareholders of the FED, but it is a huge mistake, because this time, the whole of this SECTOR will disappear leaving the righteous to enter the Promised Land (1000 years of peace)

War of the blinds with lames! Who sending tanks by spring? When snow does melts and rains In mud all tanks will sink

Things about to get worse
