Just because gambling and an alcoholic drink are both forbidden in Islam doesn't mean they are the same thing.
"Freedom from anything they deem harem \[a type of place\]" makes no sense in English.
It's like saying "freedom from anything they deem room".
And that would still stand if entering rooms was forbidden in Islam and the word room was derived from an Arabic word for forbidden in Islam.

The reason they wont give up is because they feel like theyre winning the PR war by prolonging the conflict. the guys in charge are at no risk of getting bombed so they dont give af about who takes the bullet for their strategy.

One key flaw in your analogy is that Palestinians have been the aggressors since before the reinstatement of Israel; much like Russia instigated its war on Ukraine. So, really, Russia is like Palestine, and Ukraine is like Israel in this context.
Jewish settlers inhabited the land peacefully prior to the reinstatement of Israel. When the UN partition plan was announced (as an official means of implementing the Balfour Declaration under the mandate), which would draw up fair boundaries around existing habitation, only Palestinians unilaterally rejected it and immediately instigated through aggressive assaults what would build up to the war for Israeli independence, which modern historians so vehemently wish to reframe as the Nakba myth which itself preaches that Palestinians were forcefully expelled by Israelis rather than fleeing an active war zone which they, themselves, transgressed.
While your last point is debatable, Ukraine could still be said to have a valid claim to the land their ancestors once owned, very much **unlike** the Palestinians for the reasons stated above. So, the analogy comparing Israel with Russia doesn't quite hold up.
If Palestinians and the Arab coalition had won that war, there wouldn't be any Jews visibly remaining in the region today. Just look at what happened in virtually every other predominantly Arab country in that region. Contrast this outcome with a population of Palestinians that has been steadily rising since forever.

I'm tired of pretending European colonialism was an economic drain on the global south. Aside from specific cases, like Dutch colonialism in Indonesia and French in Haiti, Europeans never got as much economic value from their colonies as they invested in their acquisition, control, management and development. The colonies were abandoned after WW2 precisely because they were an economic bottomless pit and weren't ever going to turn a profit.

People also assume that Israel is in complete control of the situation. It gives me vibes where you are playing Age of Empires II online against your friend and have the ability to absolutely crush them 15 mins because they are playing on a slow computer and you feel sorry for them so you draw things out a bit longer, only to have them crush you in the end.
Do people not realize that if Hamas was truly causing significant casualties against Israel and was taking over 1/2 of Israel that the current dialogue would be vastly different?

Nevertheless, the Soviets won against Nazi Germany with the same tactics they are using against Ukraine today: artillery and throwing bodies. It cost them a *lot* of bodies, but it worked.

Ok, did you read the articles written by Maxim Goldbarb and the YGBL in Ukraine. Actual Ukrainians under the Zelensky regime. Also what are you talking about Warsaw invaded the USSR during the Russian revolution. Not the other way around. That's the reason why the USSR invaded Poland in 1939 to take back the territory Poland had conquered. And finally how does denying Ukraine sovereignty benefit Putin if that's his goal

Your arguing to me about a country that was apart of three different empires throughout its history. And that was split into four factions during the Russian revolution. And the one that is currently fighting NATO that is using Ukraine as a proxy is the one with imperial ambitions. Yes of course they wanted to spread the revolution. Why wouldn't they. The old order which they were fighting against launched the bloodiest war in history in order to emerge as the supreme hegemon of a global market. WWI didn't even end when the Americans and British sent troops to Russia. They were more scared of revolution in Russia then they were in "fight for democracy"
No they weren't. By 1927 they were a bunch of paranoid beauracrats willing to make a deal with anyone as long as they kept there positions of power. Why do you think the Comintern encouraged its offshoots to work with bourgeoisie governments and unions to suppress workers rights and eagerness to suppress revolutionary activity abroad.
Furthermore the countries that are propping up Ukraine are actual imperialist countries with a well developed finance sector back by gun boat diplomacy.
When Victoria Nuland was discussing with her counterpart on who would be in the new Ukrainian government was that example of Ukraine's newfound sovereignty. Or how about when Ukraine was experiencing it's first set of set backs and Lloyd Austin flew down there to read them the riot act. That was an example of Ukraines right to self determination. Or how during the Ukraine counter offensive Ukraine followed NATO doctrine even though they didn't have air superiority and no ability to cross the Surovikin line without it.
Everytime I ask you a question you refuse to answer it and move on to a different topic. We've somehow moved from discussing WSWS criticism or your belief the lack thereof to the Russian Revolution. Ironically that's something you, Putin, Biden, and Zelensky have in common. Your utter hatred for it. Go figure They're not even that difficult. I just simply asked did you read the articles of Maxim Goldbarb and Bogdan Syrotiuk. And you could've responded with a yes or no.

OK, I read about organized tours to Belarus by state-owned tour agency and airline. Then accusation of Belarus government hostility makes sense.
But why Russia is necessarily related to that? Lukashenko doesn't ask Putin's permission about any mischief that he going to do to his other nighbours. Until recently, he was far from being in full agreement with Putin about Belarus' relations with Russia. He became a bit more controllable now, but he's not Putins's governor of Belarus as some people present him.

Gripen is more modern and exists in lower numbers with Sweden depending on it and being close to Russia. They've got good reason to not want to give any up just yet.
It also makes a lot of sense for logistics and sustainment reasons to focus on one or two types of jet, and not have 10 of one type and then 5 of another and then 6 of this other one like has happened with tanks and howitzers.
Switching over to different types of jets is difficult and it's better to simplify things as much as possible. People really forget about the logistics sometimes. Managing the supply chains and maintenance supporting it all. A decent number of used F16s are available and maybe a decent number of mirage too, but Sweden probably couldn't part with enough gripen for it to be worth the effort. At least for now.
Edit - can't find it right now but there's an interview from a while ago with someone from the Ukrainian air force saying they really needed to focus on just one western multirole jet, maybe two, for logistics reasons. It's not necessarily being imposed on Ukraine from outside.

NATO planes over Russian soil will be met with Russian planes over NATO soil. This will lead to NATO becoming directly involved in the conflict, which will lead to a declaration of war. The war will quickly degenerate into missile strikes, followed by small nuclear arsenal, followed by the largest nuclear arsenal. 7 billion people will be dead within two weeks of a declaration of war with NATO. There will be no more countries to wage war against, there will be no food and very little potable water.

The Gripens that can be donated are Gripen C which entered service around 2010. They are some of the most modern systems in the world.
The Mirage 2000 are closer to the F16 that are beeing Delivered and JA37 Viggen before th D upgrade.
Logistics is an Huge issue for the F16.
For the Mirage it is more the fact that they are abit of an older bird with more maintance per flight hour compared to fresher bodies but that is also an issue with the F16's
For JAs 39 it is that it needs clearance from mostly USA.
Logistics for gripen is a non issue compared to other fwestern flightsystems.
