      I have severely started doubting western media’s claims lately so whenever I read an article making bold claims I like clicking on their sources.

      The fact that the video from Independent is just irrelevant B roll, and several of the claims they make are backed by irrelevant 25 year old articles does not inspire confidence.

      If there is evidence or sourcing for those claims it should not be difficult to provide a link to a ruling to back it up.

      The allegations sound plausible, but I expect a newspaper to provide real sources in their links. I’m not supposed to have to Google to fact check everything they say.

          Great point. Russian and Chinese newspapers spread propaganda supporting their imperialist interests.

          This somehow means that our newspapers don’t!
