    On the contrary. Tanks, like any other system, will take losses.

    Being able to replace material losses while avoiding and replacing personnel losses is a key part of any long conflict.

    Liberalism doesn't believe in guardrails for capitalism. That would be socialdemocracy or specifically social liberalism.

    Liberals as a whole refer to uncontrolled economics, at most having some tax funded social policies.

    The peace deals were reportedly off the table for good after Ukraine started its incursions in Russia in Feb 2024 after losing avdeevka.

    Ukraine has sealed its fate now, probably for the better of natives in these areas.

    They will at least lose sumy, kharkov, donbass, zaporozhye and kherson. And accept that they lost crimea long ago. And probably they should be happy they won't lose dnipropetrovsk and nikolayev.

    The reaction to kursk will not be flashy. It will simply be another cold change of rules.

    New targets targeted by cruise missiles, harsher terms for Ukrainian surrender.

    We saw this after Ukraine took advantage of Russian withdrawal from kiev breaking the tacit agreement of having peace talks in exchange for the withdrawal. Russia kept attacking and stopped accepting peace talks where Ukraine doesnt accept their terms.

    We saw this after Ukraine retook kharkov and attacked the kerch bridge (crimea was not part of the fighting area). Russia started punishing Ukrainian power transmission capacity.

    Ukraine is taking heavy losses with its mobile warfare approach, now that Russia reinforcements arrived.

    They took a important town and have the option to threaten a couple more. But they are unlikely to take those and really haven't done much damage, while they keep losing ground on other fronts.

    Sand for construction is a limited resource. Not every sand works to make concrete.

    Generally, it has to be river sand, because sea sand has salt and must be washed, and open air sand is pulished by wind, making it worse for building.

    The full name of the movement is Ḥarakat al-Taḥrīr al-Waṭanī l-Filasṭīnī, meaning the "Palestinian National Liberation Movement". From this was crafted the inverted and reverse acronym Fatḥ (generally rendered in English as Fatah), meaning "opening", "conquering", or "victory".[30] The word fatḥ is used in religious discourse to signify the Islamic expansion in the first centuries of Islamic history – as in Fatḥ al-Shām, the "conquering of the Levant". Fatḥ also has religious significance in that it is the name of the 48th sura (chapter) of the Quran which, according to major Muslim commentators, details the story of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah. During the peaceful two years after the Hudaybiyyah treaty, many converted to Islam, increasing the strength of the Muslim side. It was the breach of this treaty by the Quraysh[31] that triggered the conquest of Mecca. This Islamic precedent was cited by Yasser Arafat as justification for his signing the Oslo Accords with Israel.[32][33]
