    The Pentagon is expected to cancel a plan to send Tomahawk missiles to Germany partly because officials are concerned Russia will view it as an escalation, a startling reversal of a long-planned agreement with one of America’s biggest allies.

      Russia’s winning move it to declare unfair war tactics by the other side before the war starts.

      Did you read that? BEFORE the war STARTS. They are going to START a war.

      They don’t want the other side to be able to defend themselves…WHEN THE WAR STARTS.

          Yes, all of Europe disarmed after WW2. We are ripe for the taking and are scrambling to get our shit back together.

            We are not that disarmed, plus Russia can’t even win over Ukraine and now they are expected to wage a full war against NATO?

              Sorry, no sarcasm here today. Check back after the next presidential election…if there ever is one.

            France has a nuclear umbrella, if I remember correctly they’re the only one in the EU that does, but Britain and Canada are both part of NATO so they contribute to the deterrent.

            Also, russia would get wrecked in Poland and the Baltics .
