[NewsFrontInfo] 22:17 Our source from the office in Kyiv reports that the OP and the SBU understand that the “loss” of control over Mariupol and Kharkov will undermine morale and possibly launch the domino principle among other cities in the country. Therefore, the case of humanitarian corridors for civilians will be delayed as much as possible, thereby gaining time. 18:50 Poroshenko and Turchynov left Kyiv and are now at a checkpoint near Ivano-Frankivsk. Far from the line of contact. 18:41 Russian servicemen took control of the military base of the armed forces of Ukraine near the village of Radensk, Kherson region. 18:23 The Ukrainian military destroyed the spillway of the dam through the Seversky Donets in the village. Old Saltov in the Volchansky district of the Kharkov region to slow down the advance of the Russian army to Kharkov. 18:17 The Armed Forces of Ukraine leave the military base in Kherson. In the meantime, the stubborn teroboronists, who are given weapons by the Kyiv authorities, continue to smash settlements and kill civilians. Moreover, as we have repeatedly warned, the war party is hatching plans not only for the physical elimination of people, but also for the organization of a humanitarian catastrophe for those whom it holds hostage. We have documents confirming the above. This is a plan for mining bridges on the Kakhovka reservoir. Further comments are superfluous. And those who are still drowning for Zelya and the Nazis should once again think carefully about who the enemy really is. 18:12 The Ukrainian Armed Forces, at gunpoint, do not allow people to be evacuated from the settlement.

In addition, a Turkish flag and photographs of foreign mercenaries were found at the base. 17:03 This photo demonstrates the uncontrolled distribution of weapons to everyone in Ukraine.

| #15 Ref #11: I won't post information from western news sources because frankly they are a buncha blithering idiots when it comes to eastern Europe. Or much of anywhere or anything else. |

| #14 I find this stuff helpful, badanov. It is good to have a variety of channels to sift through. Thanks! Signal vs Noise is always a problem. If you are into those 'book' things, something that helped me see through the noise was reading Robert Cialdini's Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. It lays out a handful of techniques that salesmen, telemarketers, advertisers, government, and the media use to persuade people to like, buy, act, and think in a particular way. It is a short book, but I found it eye-opening. Once you see the techniques in play, you will never look at the world in the same way. |

| #11 My main go-to Russian language Ukrainian site has been blocked. By whom is irrelevant. My sole remaining Ukrainian site has been updating, unbeknownst me to. The balance should improve, greatly, if korrespondent.net is brought back online. Readers here, as always, are free to post countervailing articles. I post what I can find in Russian mainly, but also in Ukrainian. I won't post information from western news sources because frankly they are a buncha blithering idiots when it comes to eastern Europe. Six years of reporting on this war before the invasion has taught me that. |

| #10 Yeah... been doing just that... This is less signal to more noise than I think is worth repeating. Like this: They hid them in children's toys and first aid kits to kill civilians and children. Soviet practice in Afghanistan, from what I recall. The provocation failed: a sabotage group of SBU special forces was captured near Melitopol. They intended to carry out a series of terrorist attacks against the civilian population in the city and pass it off as the actions of the Russian military. Wasn't that how Putin created the casus belli for Chechnya? Anyone who has been paying attention knows this is garbage; if any of it has happened, it's the Russians getting back what they started. |

| #9 Rob - Ukraine and Russia are both trying to spin stories/facts to their benefit as you know. I would if I were them. (I'd hire better St. Pete Trolls as these are too apparent. Quantity =/= Quality), but all you can do is post both and see where the "facts" deviate. Fog O' War and all that. |
| Posted by: Frank G 2022-03-06 16:34 |
| #8 ^ Sure, you just have to separate the signal from the noise. Doing so is left as an exercise for the Reader. |

| #7 But is there any information content to it? |
| Posted by: Rob Crawford 2022-03-06 16:15 |
| #6 badanov is presenting Ukrainian and Russian claims side by side, Rob, so we can together tease out the facts of the matter. This also allows our Russian visitors to see what Motherland claims the world is seeing beyond their boiler room. |

| #5 Is there ANY information of worth in this crap? |
| Posted by: Rob Crawford 2022-03-06 12:36 |
| #4 That hag Klobuhar's personality alone might give the Russians a tough time. |

| #3 Lots of Nazis arriving in Munich these days. Many are only 2 years old. Some are Jewish. Can't be careful enough. |

| #2 If I could wave a magic wand and send a hellfire missile into Putin, I would. There's a special place in hell for the bastard. But that's not going to happen. We fucked up Iraq by butting in, we trashed the place and got spanked and now Iran's riding high. Now we're making the same mistake and we're risking nuclear war. Yes, Putin is a shit. Pure evil. But our interests dictate that we need to stay out of this. Let Soros and Klaus Schwann and Lindsey Graham and Amy Klobuchar fight if they want to -- maybe Amy can send the Ukrainians some killer combs. But this ain't our circus. Stay the fuck out. |
