August 06, 2005Russian Sub: News On A SaturdayOkay, semi-breaking the rule for Saturdays for a public service announcement. For a number of reasons I will not be commenting much on this story, but will say that I agree with Chap and that I think Instapundit got it flat wrong. If you want to know what is going on, go to the experts. The single best source is Ultraquiet No More, a milblog for submariners. Other milblogs covering include Chapomatic and Indepundit/Citizen Smash. The best Old Media coverage appears to be Interfax. Itar-Tass also has regular updates. Good thoughts go out to the crew of the sub, their families, and for all involved in this rescue effort. Keep them all in your thoughts and prayers. LW UPDATE: Instapundit steals, shoots, SCORES! And I add a belated link to the good coverage at Gateway Pundit. UPDATE II: Baldilocks is covering this as well. UPDATE III: MosNews is reporting the sub has been ordered to surface, but there is still a good bit of confusion. Let us all hope for the best.

Posted by: Juliette at August 7, 2005 03:54 AMSub is up with all crew members alive according to CNN. Funny how the world hates us, curses us and slanders us, but when the chips are down they certainly know who to call to get the job done. Must drive them nuts. Heh. Go Brits and USA! >^..^< Thanks much. I was indeed having a "WTF?!?" moment there when I saw the link...and I did email the good professor when Bubblehead put his first post up!
