Summary

War has been an indelible part of human civilisation since the dawn of history, and the war in our neighbourhood has shown that it is not just a remote event in time and space. Conflict, violence and war are an integral and terrible part of human behaviour, whether it is the world conflagrations that have covered continents in blood or the clashes that have blighted our daily lives. The outbreak of armed conflict, its nature, the reasons for victory and defeat have been written about in countless books from antiquity to the present day. In his book, Lieutenant General Romulusz Ruszin-Szendi, former commander of the Hungarian Defence Forces, who has seen the battlefields of Afghanistan, Iraq and Ukraine, sets out to condense the principles of war into five simple, clear points.Although the examples used to illustrate them are drawn from war situations, this book is not only for readers interested in military history and theories. Whether it's how we relate to opposing and allied forces, how we define our objectives, or the importance of communication, the principles set out here are applicable to any conflict and can help us win the battles of our lives.

    World War II was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind. Highly relevant today, World War II has much to teach us, not only about the profession of arms, but also about military preparedness, global strategy, and combined operations in the coalition war against fascism. This book follows military operations of the US Army in North Ease Asia from 29 January to 15 July 1945. 
    At the beginning of 1945, less than eight months remained before the final surrender of Japan. Those eight months, however, were to see some of the bitterest fighting of the war. Although the final outcome was no longer in doubt, when and how the conflict would end remained unclear. The American naval blockade of Japan, combined with a growing air offensive, was placing a serious strain on Japan's economy. Yet any invasion of the Japanese home islands would most likely be drawn out and extremely costly in lives. There was also the danger that even with the capture of the home islands the war might not end, but continue interminably on the Asian mainland, where large numbers of Japanese troops occupied Korea, Manchuria, and the richest and most populous areas of China.
    While American forces in the Pacific had been making dramatic progress since early 1942, the Allied effort in the China-Burma-India theater had bogged down in a morass of conflicting national objectives. The hope Americans held in the early stages of the war, that Chinese manpower and bases would play a vital role in the defeat of Japan, was unrealized. Americans sought to achieve great aims on the Asian mainland at small cost, looking to the British in India and the Chinese, with their vast reservoirs of manpower, to carry the main burden of the ground conflict. Neither proved capable of exerting the effort the Americans had hoped...

    A new scientific study has suggested that aliens may have been on Earth in ancient times and that they may have created humanity. 
     
    The study, conducted by a team of international scientists, suggests that a group of aliens known as the ‘Anunnaki’ may have come to Earth around 4,000 years ago from the planet Nibiru. 
     
    The study claims that the aliens created humans by splicing their own DNA with that of apes. 
     
    The study has been met with scepticism by many scientists, who say that it is based on dubious evidence. 
     
    However, the team of scientists behind the study say that their evidence is ‘compelling’ and that the theory should be taken seriously. 
     
    So, what do you think? Were aliens on Earth in ancient times and did they create humanity? We’re about to find out.
