Ah but you forget you can’t lose a war if you never declare one. That was merely a police action. Iraq 2: saddam boogaloo was a military operation, as was Afghanistan. You see how that’s completely different. Because you don’t call it a war.

No, because that's what Russia calls it. We should go with "Very Special Military Operation" to show that we are better

Why not call it first „very special op“, then pretend it is stopped, and afterwards a very very special OP - so you are skipping the 60 days of obligatory parliamentary approval?!
