While Israel increasingly isolates itself on the international stage, BRICS members Iran, Russia, and China are quietly coordinating a full-spectrum effort to support Palestine diplomatically and militarily.
It looks like the big beef with this author is possible Russian contamination:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepe_Escobar
“Escobar’s work has been scrutinized for its appearance in outlets identified by the U.S. State Department as part of Russia’s disinformation network, such as RT and Sputnik News, raising questions about the potential propagation of Russian propaganda.”
The main thing that tipped me off this guy was not to be respected was this line from an article someone pointed out to me:
Tucker Carlson has been legally demonstrated in court to be not a serious journalist. His interview with Putin was widely panned by experts to be a farce, specifically and especially Putin’s nebulous claims about Ukraine belonging to Russia and Tucker’s uncritical reception of those claims.
Pepe’s uncritical endorsement of Tucker’s journalism and Putin’s claims deserve ridicule.
Yeah, but that falls right in line with the Russian propaganda angle.
