Pretty compelling evidence, the Syrian regime has used barrel bombs, so screw them. They are a terrorist nation. If one is calling Robert Parry, Consortium News, and all of those informative, antiwar.com, Alex Jones and so....then have at it.
Russia screws its own people, Putin may be the richest man in the world, it's a kleptocracy, it could demographically change to Islam as well. Rogue regime.
Russia doesn't even have a free press, whatever we hear is their state media and those as Robert Parry, Seymour Hirsch who write up on them. Russia is not a free nation. If anyone is telling lies, it's Russia like that airliner that got shot down by a missile.
Oswald was a communist. Nothing people say changes that, no solid connections to the CIA have been found.
If Russia is so great to live in, good. Helped the Nazis start World War II, as if they were a counter weight to Nazism, they collaborated with them.

Even Bianca Jagger is fully condemning the violence of the Nicaraguan Sandinista Government, of course, Robert Parry helped "expose" the Contras, if what he reported was true. Now, that government is shooting and killing protesters.

Some of what Robert Parry reported over the years was true but a great deal of it was not.

Spoke to him in person on stage after he spoke and confronted him about his position on 9/11 In retrospect I think I kind of scared him though I did my best to be polite I kind of regret I should have taken my place as a mere audience member No real point other than I disagreed with him as well My point is in regard to the range of voices being heard on foreign policy I am no Democrat by any means and as of the last election I saw Trump as having a more cautious foreign policy towards Russia and would have voted for him if I had only the two choices
I also question whether any categorizing clear definition along a right and left spectrum has been slowly dissolving for a couple of decades now, maybe longer I cannot find Stephen Cohen speaking about Russia for the life of me, and I never even considered him a radical Whatever the left was it is hopelessly fractured in revealing some of its now obvious hysterical underpinnings
That being said one's political ideology should generally not be a factor in events that lend themselves to empirical examination

If you want to call Russia, China and North Korea more free than India or Ukraine, be my guest. It's good for general ball park figures. Also, should we see how often, National Review is wrong on things? They don't have a perfect record either and I can name particular cases.
Amnesty International has skewed views; but they still produce valuable information from time to time.
