Intent to win the war? Ok so any suicidal declares to help your own allies, even if only for one attack is also against rules? 
 

Assuming you know you can’t win? 

If you try to kill enemy units to reduce his military and help your ally then you're trying to win, maybe not for you but for your alliance/coalition

Declare on a nation outside your current alliance war when you're ZM in a beige cycle and you do an airstrike 10 planes vs 2k = slot filling

Declare on a nation in your current alliance war and you do an airstrike 1k planes vs 2k to reduce those 2k and facilitate the airstrike of your ally = good coordination

Declare on a nation outside your current alliance war when you're ZM in a beige cycle and you do soldiers only ground attacks vs 0 soldiers to stole money you need for something like a nuke to drop on the enemy = totally fine

While I agree that clarification is needed, your interpretation leaves the rule open to being abused.  If @Alex was to rule based on "alliance ties", an alliance leader could very easily be like "Hey, let's make a quick post that we cut our alliance ties and fake a drama episode that declares war on each other."  Or people could go the tried and true method of ghosting into a pirate alliance to get their slots filled, so that they can rebuild.  There's a few ways to move around your interpretation here.

That's why moderators should ignore political ties and look at each case individually.  Moderators cannot go through Discord to look at what conversations are being had, afterall.
