In the armed actions of
the recent years in question,
the misleading use of the term "war" is
imposed
deliberately in order to confer a semblance of
legality.
War is waged between
states that are able
to cause mutual damage one to the other.
When a powerful
military state or a coalition of states,
as in the case of the United States and NATO, uses
its unparalleled military supremacy, to invade a
practically
defenceless country,
this is not called war, it is called assault.
