  1. I think it's that that the US won't give Germany any money to send those tanks.

  2. US citizens need to work on gaining control. Remember government works for us. Not the other way around.

  3. USA don't have no money and our income tax Is in jerpody. All time price inflation and we sending money to Ukraine. Anyone remember the hurricane that did alot of damage, or 911 and when Ukraine sent us a bunch of money to help us out. That's because it's never happened. USA needs to worry about its own people.

  4. Honestly if the abrams does go it might just be for use a defensive purposes / hold down tank due to its weight and capabilities. The other tanks may be the ones who actually lead the charge in counter attacks due to the other tank types being made for euro terrain

  5. the bidens admin's failure, again, and again, and again.. just like obamas failures.

  6. Just have Oliver north buy them and then forget them in Ukraine lol iranscam throwback…

  7. German politicians are corrupted by russians. They are more afraid for their reputation, that their corrupt dependence on the Russians will be exposed. They are even willing to sacrifice neighbouring countries and hundreds of Ukrainian lives, just so that no one will know how despicably they have paid Putin. They are afraid because they are despicable traitors themselves. Shame on Germany. They too are responsible for hundreds, thousands of victims because of their inaction.

  8. Let Europe fight Russia by themselves.

  9. Ww3 is here we’re just using them to fight our war

  10. 60 percent of people live pay check to pay check. The national debt is now $94,000 per every man, woman, and child. Our net worth is less than zero.

  11. Nato and Biden are Nazis

  12. Just send Ukraine some nukes.

  13. Remember how the US got into Viet Nam…..well, do you? I do…..” He who doesn’t learn from his mistakes is a fool and is doomed to repeat them.” ( WW l, WW ll, Korea, Viet Nam and on and on.) Who’s the fool? 🤔😳

  14. Ukraine listened to USA and NATO and look now

  15. Why don’t the US send Abrams? Why did the US forbid Poland to send MiG-29s to Ukraine?

  16. German tanks firing at Russians lifes > disaster . They do not want to risk another Great Patriotic War in their .. for 10 tanks who ll be destroyed in 1 week. When they can"t heat their homes

  17. Every president prime minister premier chancelor king queen and police and news media anyone involved in this war any war world wide from the WEF world economic forum the international monatery fund to ellon musk jeff baesos all elites all involved in the new world order are sick mentaly unstable sycotic sycopaths with no empathy for human kind .

  18. Germany and France always have been cautious in damaging their relations with dictators and authoritarian regimes,, human rights means nothing to them they only and only care about trade,, USA is better leave the EU alone to deal with the war in Europe,, Germany and France are bunch of coward freeloaders

  19. Day 334: 78 years after WWII nothing was learnt.

    46 Ukrainians are killed each day in Putin's senseless war.

    44 Americans are killed each day by other Americans.

    It is so sad that America's daily shootings almost match an actual war.

  20. Germany can send their own TANKS!!!! too many countries expect us to take care of their stuff "quid pro quo" how soon they forget

  21. Good get your own weapons peasant Ukes
    🔥🔥🔥🔥🇺🇦🔥💥💥💥☠️☠️☠️☠️

  22. do USA and Germany fear with Russia? absolutely not …… but they know Russia can destroy best German tank as well as best USA fighter plane and it is simple like 2 + 2 = 4 if your best weapon is destroyed then your whole arms market financially terribly Hit hard and USA as well as Germany never wish to lose their market.

  23. Lest we forget, when it comes to "heavy arms" or any arms for that matter, and who should have them, Germany doesn't always follow the rules.

  24. Agence France-Presse believes that the SPD's conciliatory attitude towards Russia stems from the "Eastern Policy" advocated by Prime Minister Brandt in the 1970s. The purpose of this policy is to approach the communist Eastern bloc, especially the former East Germany, through trade, in order to achieve the easing of the cold war. This strategy is believed to have finally led to the reunification of Germany in 1990.

    The "Eastern Policy" is still deeply rooted in the genes of the Social Democratic Party, and even in the German state: Angela Merkel, the conservative CDU chancellor, has maintained this practice after making some adjustments, and Merkel is often criticized for her close relationship with Putin.

    AFP also said that in addition, pacifism was deeply rooted in German public opinion, and Germans were immersed in guilt for the terror of the Nazi regime. According to a poll released this week by the Yougov Institute, 59% of people refused to provide weapons to Kiev. The problem is that the starting point on which German diplomacy has operated for more than 40 years now seems to be outdated.

  25. China and Japan is selling US treasury bonds as quickly as the US is sending more money to Ukraine regime.
