special-military-operation 

Is an Orwellian inspired New Speak word, popularized by a notable dictator, to describe a scorched-earth war of unimaginable devastation that seeks to eliminate all people that don't swear fealty to the dictator. This specific type of war begins with military exercises and conscripts being told that they're going into a territory just for training purposes. Upon arriving in a foreign land, the military orders their troops to commit themselves to destroying apartment buildings, schools, hospitals, power plants, sewage and waste water treatment plants, indiscriminately killing civilians, as well as committing numerous war crimes. During public interviews, special-military-operation will be used in place of all of these horribly messy details in an attempt to sanitize a brutal and inhumane war that the dictator has instigated.

To spend several days watching news broadcasts on the main state channels, as well as surveying state-controlled newspapers, is to witness the extent of the Kremlin’s efforts to sanitize its war with the Orwellian term “special-military-operation” — and to make all news coverage align with that message.

Special Military Operation 

It's an operation began by Vladolf Putler and its goal is to save the innocent washing machines from the persecution of the Ukrainian Nazis. If Russia didn't have an obsession with cleanliness, the special laundry operation would never have happened.

Special military operation is an honest Russian euphemism for a war of aggression.

Special Military Operation 

100% not an invasion. Anyone who conducts a Special Military Operation is an extremely stand up guy and is devoted to world peace with zero intentions whatsoever of starting a war against a sovereign nation. Trust me guys, I am definitely NOT being held at gunpoint by the secret police right now.

I am conducting a Special Military Operation (not an invasion!) to ensure peace in Ukraine.

An Invasion. Especially one conducted by an authoritarian regime.

Used by the aggressor to mellow how it is presented in the intent to hide realities for own citizens.

The invaded country experiences that the special military operation looks like a war, feels like a war, smells like a war and is without doubt a war.

Putin started a Special Military Operation in Ukraine.
