Week's end summary:

1. Slow grind continues
2. Casualties mount on both sides
3. Kharkiv region success at mopup
4. If not for Kharkiv success, loss ratio would've been nearing 1:1
5. It's WW2 warfare reenacted, infantry, and massed artillery, with sparse tank usage in fire support

The warmer weather now empowers the attacker, soldiers can now scatter, and sleep in the fields.

This greatly increased the number of encounters during Ukrainians trying to get into Russian flanks. Some random bursts, and RPG rounds from trenches do meet their targets.

So, it's harder for Ukrainians to get Russians with a surprise during flanking. This also reduces Russian infantry losses, as less people sleep in vehicles, or abandoned buildings.

Thats a load of tosh and you know it. The war in Iraq was an illegal invasion based on a pretext of wmd's which were never there. The west is full of hyprocrasy would be good for people to just admit it rather than backing war crimes committed by Nato members.

The United States presented three Casus Belli and one is enough.
Hypocrites ignore the two I mentioned.

The Libya action was not an invasion in its normal meaning. A no fly zone was implemented and forces threatening Libyan civilians were treated with air strikes.
Gadaffi started killing people demonstrating for democracy to replace his illegal regime as part of the Arab Spring. The UNSC decided on a resolution calling for all countries to put a stop on Gadaffis atrocities.
That is what the 2011 action did.

As for Iraq:
Did Iraq violate the ceasefire by firing SAMs on coalition aircraft?
Did Iraq attempt to assassinate George H.W, Bush?

The answer to those questions determine the legality of Gulf War II.

The lybian action was an outright attack on Libyan forces in every place they were engaged or didn't engaged rebels, meanwhile arming rebels with various type of weapons
.

No way denying it and it was not so far back that we forgot what was happened there. You think we already forget rebels interview with media's that they said "it's two day we fighting with government force and we have had no progress. They bombed them several time but we think they must be bombed several more time. "

Because, since the Crusades, the west has spent its entire resources and focus to stop Muslims and non-westerners to not have the power, economy or military to be able to unite against them. It's not so much the "wests problem" but rather the west's planning and orchestration.

The reasons for the Crusades was of course because the Muslims invaded Eastern Rome. Then the Muslims continued and tried to invade Western/Central Europe.

The Muslims invaded Eastern Rome because Eastern Rome were in Arab lands. That wasnt even my point though, so do better at derailing.

True story is that european nations have been figting among eachother since time immeorable. Ww1 and WW2 is just continuiation of that pattern.

The question is what stops rest of the world from catching up and becoming dominant like the west did? Western europe historically wasnt that advanced or central to world as it slowly became during past 500 years .

Although in-fighting has plagued the western alliance, you are underestimating the desire of the west to be warlike, to dominate and kill as opposed to other "civilisations". Truth be told, not everyone wants to force their way of life on to others quite like the west does.

Western Europe wasnt advanced?! Rome and Greece were pretty advanced, a basic fact known by any secondary school pupil in most countries. The role of the Muslims at carrying on the elightenment of the ancient civilisations is also a factor, and the renaissance and "age of enlightenment" in Europe becomes just a piece of the puzzle. Next stop maybe a form of multipolarity or even decline.

This special military operation is lasting longer than planned says Lukanshenko. The lackey. He upsets Putin who always insists everything goes according to plan.

Russian army loses 100-200 soldiers per day.

Palestine, Anatolia and Constantinople were not Arab land.
Bringing up the Crusades in a thread about Russia and Ukraine is the original derailing.

There have been Arab bedouins roaming those lands longe before any Roman or European. Go read a book.

Stop spreading fake news. Show sources or this post has to be removed.

Access to trade routes...so basically, money... religion was frankly secondary, although it made a good cover story (like we invaded them because they had weapons of mass destruction... except they didn't)...

Says the man who keeps bringing up libya and Iraq in a thread about Russia and Ukraine. Seems you like to derail even when people aren't speaking to you. Hope they're paying you for this.

Religion was a massive factor, many christians did Pilgrimage and thought they were doing God's bidding when they massacred all those women and children. Yes, some were advantageous who did it for worldly wealth. Opportunistic behaviour is a well known western cultural trait, after all.
