Flash like tool

[surf]

does anybody know a software, which is good for animating? like Macromedia's (adobe's) Flash, but I need a lot easier program but with the same animating tools (motion, shape tweens; masks;...)
can somebody help me?

This software is more for animating cartoons and the like, but I've heard a lot of people say it's Flash like in it's approach. I've never tried though.

oh, it will not be a huge animation. it is just about the world wars, how the enemy lines were moving
