Scott Ritter lays out the rationale to point a finger to the Ukrainians—army and police— as the perpetrators of the Bucha massacres, a retaliation against civilians sympathetic to Russians, part of their “cleansing operation”, while also providing grist for the disinformation mill that has been working double time to stain the name of Russia.

Hedges illustrates the classical limits of left liberalism and social democracy: left anti-communism. Too bad that Jimmy Dore s still innocent about these things. For all the cogent and eloquent analysis about the state of US society, Hedges can never refrain from taking potshots at “authoritarians” (i.e., Stalin, the Soviet Union, the Serbs in the Yugoslav civil war). Read our special pieces on left anticommunism, a form of Fifth columnist posture, and why it matters to realise what role these people play in the class struggle.
