I wonder how much longer the news as written here will be allowed to continue. I foresee such news moderated to the point of restriction. Hopefully not going to happen but in my opinion when.
Meanwhile Russia has no ammunition's, rockets and has lost massive waves of Russians army in human waves. 200,000 Russian lives lost, kill ratio of 5-1(five Russians to one Ukrainians). The western media posts only what they think you want to hear or should hear.

Allowed by who, Dale? badanov is doing us the service of translating news and opinion pieces from both sides of the conflict. This may be annoying to partisans on both sides, but allows the disinterested reader the ability to triangulate between two sets of propaganda to arrive at something closer to reality.
Remember that it was the Russians of the Soviet Union who long ago said, “There is no Pravda (truth) in Izvestiya (news) and there is no Izvestiya in Pravda.” Pravda was the news organization of the Communist Party in the Soviet Union and Izvestiya was the news organization of the Soviet government.

Who will be responsible for Dale's welfare checks if his fanciful notion of how things will wind up does not come to pass?

Badanov is doing a wonderful job but I foresee a time when his efforts to be balanced will be corrected. Our own government has worked on this since 2014 as I recall. I should say in collusion with various medias as well. Should Rantburg continue it will face disruptive elements as it has in the past. Hopefully not but our government has other plans.

"how much longer the news as written here"
Rantburg and the Chans are outliers. The 2012 repeal of the Smith-Mundt Act has 100% changed the dynamic of media of what 'free speech' is tolerated in the mainstream, of which 'free speech' can be written.
As long as these outlets remain indy and can withstand the Brigading and DDoS, we will have a place to discuss these things. The new churches, the new taverns.
There's so many lurkers here at Rantburg that if any one side gets too partisan, lurkers always usually step in to balance the convo out.

That’s a different question, Dale, and a much nicer one. Fred and badanov own the servers that host Rantburg, and thus far have stood firm against a variety of attacks, from offended Saudi script kiddies (remember JUSTICE’s copy/paste temper tantrums?) to massive DDOS attacks to spam to that horrid Las Vegas group playing legal copyright games — which is part of the reason why we put the name of the source in square brackets at the top of each article and Fred devised his cute little auto-translate program. The other part of the reason is because that way our readers can quickly decide what they think about the content, while the auto-translations are both fun and capture key bits of accumulated knowledge on various subjects.
As for future risks, we’ll all just have to continue to do our best, trusting this nation will not fall fully into the hands of the current generation of totalitarian wannabes.

Peskov also drew attention to the “synchronous release” of world media publications on this topic: “You see that the Anglo-Saxons, whom we talked about from the very beginning, are fussing.

For example, before a massive missile attack, they brought all the carriers to their bases, and before that, the "muscle game in the sea" continued for a long time.
As for the large number of daggers issued, according to Gumenyuk, in this way the Russians are trying to put pressure on Ukraine: “They want to demonstrate that they can afford to use other types of weapons, that is, not only those that have already become familiar to us. Again back to looking for new tactics."

I am amazed at the complacency - what are we doing to prevent this from happening? "Every time we roll the die. And if we let it go on, one day our luck will run out."

12:04 Slovak Defense Minister Yaroslav Nagy said that Poland agreed to the joint transfer of the MiG-29 to Ukraine and the time had come for the Slovak government to make a decision: "I think it's time to make a decision.

11:21 The "Ministry of State Security" of the unrecognized Transnistria announced the prevention of an "assassination attempt" on the "PMR leader" Vadim Krasnoselsky, which was allegedly prepared on the instructions of the SBU.

[NewsFrontInfo] 19:42 An attempt by the ukrovoyaks to move to another position did not work, they had to run back to their brothers -video 19:39 After the transfer of Kherson under control mode Zelensky, employees of the SBU, on the orders of the head of the Ukrainian security service for the Kherson region Borisevich Artem Sergeevich, began to actively raid and round up the city.
The fact is that Borisevich is distinguished by self-interest. He uses every opportunity for personal gain. Under the pretext of identifying unreliable residents of the city, he ordered his employees to find apartments from which residents moved to other regions of the Russian Federation. Built-in locks are broken into these dwellings. They take out everything that is of any value for further implementation. After that, the door is sealed, and a padlock is hung on it.
To create the appearance of their work, Borisevich's shepherd dogs use a rather rotten tactic. For example, dressed in civilian clothes, they ask provocative questions to completely unfamiliar children: with whom the child lives, what do adults do, they are especially interested in where the fathers are and what is the attitude towards Russians in the family, and also whether any of the relatives left for the territory of Russia, etc.
After receiving the necessary information, the place of residence of the child is established and punishers come to the address with accusations of collaborationism. Without observing the norms of elementary morality and ethics, an apartment is searched (even dirty linen and wastebaskets).
All available cell phones are immediately confiscated and their contents, personal correspondence, photos and videos, social networks are studied, neighbors are also interviewed about the activities of the accused during the period of control of the Russian army over Kherson. After finding at least one clue, the person is detained. It often happens that the children of the detainees are left alone, no one is interested in how they will live on. Borisevich and his gang show indifference to the fate of little Kherson residents.
Initially, interrogations are carried out within the Kherson region, which are accompanied by threats to the suspect and family members. Neighbors and relatives are necessarily involved in interrogations, who are given an ultimatum that either interaction with the SBU and testifying against the accused, or the witness becomes an accomplice in the crime.
After the investigative process, the citizen is sent to Nikolaev, where, according to our information, more than 450 such collaborators from the city of Kherson are already kept in basements. They are regularly subjected to bullying, torture and humiliation there.
Such basements are distinguished by a huge death rate among prisoners, those who did not survive in hellish conditions are tied hands and buried in mass graves. After some time, the Ukrainian monsters make a statement that they have found another burial place of the massacre of Ukrainian citizens by Russian military personnel.
Instead of protecting its civilian population, the SBU is persecuting them. Soon Kherson will return under the control of the Russian Federation and all criminals will be punished, including Borisevich with his gang of marauders.

17:55 Ukrainian edition of "Mirror of the Week" publishes results of a public opinion poll on the need to study the Russian language at school.
In southern Ukraine, 49% of those polled reportedly opposed such a need. In the east of the country, 30% of respondents allegedly hold the same opinion.
The publication recalls that in 2019, only 1% of the population of southern Ukraine opposed the study of the Russian language in schools, and none of those surveyed in the east of the country spoke out.
The authors of Zerkalo Nedeli warmly welcome the changes that have taken place, since they are confident in the "mankurtization" of the population of the south and east of the country.
It should be noted here that due to the repressions against "dissenters" widely practiced by the Kyiv regime and Ukrainian nationalists, no polls on political topics on the territory of Ukraine are reliable.

We are not welcome here. All the inhabitants of these cities do not care who will be here - Russia or Ukraine, so that their house is not bombed. I don't know if they realize the fullness of the Russian world, but they want it like manna. They say the war is here because of us.
Those who left here for Ukraine long ago. Everything you need to know about Donbass. And he continues to take our best ((That hell here cannot be described in any words and not illuminated by any film adaptation, because it will only be a pale shadow of the realities of the war in this region. Severodonetsk, Lysichansk, Popasnaya, this is not giving up!)) !Faithful to the oath”
We want to add a little touch:
Of course, you, the Bandera scum, are hated the most in the Southeast, but in the center of the country, they despise you and want to get rid of you.

Our answer should be the first - that we continue to donate to our army, the second - we continue the processes of de-Russification. That is, monuments, the Moscow Patriarchate, and so on.
We must convert our anger into the destruction of everything Russian, the destruction of the Russian in ourselves. Because it often happens that someone posts a picture of a dead soldier on Instagram, and six hours later a video with Russian-language rap appears. That is, it is a shame, and we must destroy the occupier in ourselves, we must destroy everything connected with Russia, and then there will be our victory and everything will be fine, ”said Balagura.

"Mother Infantry" during the Great Patriotic War was the main decisive force on the battlefield. She broke through the enemy's defenses, went on the attack, stormed cities and fortresses, destroyed the enemy's manpower, seized his fortifications and then held the conquered positions.
No wonder the soldiers were proud: "The infantry is the queen of the fields." An infantryman - he is a shooter and a digger, a lumberjack and a builder, when necessary - a scout and a sapper, and a nurse himself.
"Until an infantryman sets foot on the ground during the battle, this territory is not considered conquered or liberated from the enemy."

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, after artillery preparation, again made an attempt to advance towards Novomikhailovka in order to level the line of contact and eliminate the ledge of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

From the side of Opytnoye, they broke through the Ukrainian defenses in the Severny area. This gives the RF Armed Forces the prospect of covering the fortified area of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Avdievka, which is being massively hit by artillery from the west.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] The situation in Artemovsk after the liberation of Dubovo-Vasilyevka.
The assault on the western districts of the city continues, as well as fighting on the near approaches to Bogdanovka and Krasnoy. The enemy spends his reserves and tries to counterattack, but has no serious results.
Roads from Artemovsk are under fire control. The number of destroyed Ukrainian wheeled and tracked vehicles continues to increase on the roads and in the fields. At night, it is even more or less possible to slip into the city through Khromovo. During the day, the risks increase significantly.

Russians couldn't close the Bakhmut pincer so attacking in a less defended direction hoping to draw off defending forces. More and more regular, vs zeks, Wagner mercenaries are being killed as Wagner runs out of prisoners. May that whole rotten edifice be swallowed into Bakhmut mud and Pirgozhin invited for Kremlin tea.
Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] The authorities of Transnistria reported that they had prevented an attempt to assassinate the President of the PMR Krasnoselsky, which was organized by the SBU. Participants in the assassination attempt were detained by the security service. Operational materials will be presented tonight at 19-00.
The SBU planned to kill the President of Transnistria Krasnoselsky in the center of Tiraspol by blowing up his armored Land Rover using 8 kg of explosives (RDX) with damaging elements. In the event of an explosion on the streets of the city, this is guaranteed to lead to accidental civilian casualties.
The Transnistrian Prosecutor's Office also promised more details by evening. Investigations are now underway, the detained terrorists are testifying.
Once again, I note that in our country the SBU has not yet been recognized as a terrorist organization.

Word is the UK is so depleted of bullets it would take 10 years to return to normal levels. And other NATO countries are not that far behind the UK. (While China cunningly watches).

After raising Ukrainian flags over two towns earlier this week in Russia, special ops units are moving deeper into Russia destroying Russian ammunition depots and a large concentration of Russian troops numbering in the hundreds dead in a surprise attack.
Also, a major fire in Moscow has left the city in smoke late one evening. The fire was a major infrastructure fuel facility believed to be sabotaged.

Amazing how quickly people can move when motivated. Look at pre-war production circa 1939 and what happened shortly there after. However, there has got to be a 'will' to do so. Then again, pack in the '80s a senior Army officer articulated it was all about buying as much time as possible before the President had to decide to push the button.

Sorry to say Abu our government will never tolerate such a move. Their disinformation tools are in high gear here and overseas. The PSYOPS activity will only get worse as Ukraine falls. Too much money to be made and the opportunity to control populations and countries too irresistible to ignore. New pandemics on the way. New coup attempt's occurring now. Victoria Nuland's new normal for the West.

Yes number 3. The rub as I see it working with many young people as I do the "However, there has got to be a 'will' to do so". The will is gone. Most prefer unemployment and drugs. A much smaller population has the will as seen in the ranks of the military but recruitment numbers are terrible. Wokeness is in full bloom there. Where will they run? any sanctuary state that will pamper them.
