Noam Chomsky has spent his entire life being critical of US foreign policy, and at no point has he ever said "yea putin is right". At worst he's claimed that US imperialism LEAD to the conflict, which is 100% accurate (like if the US didn't even exist of course there wouldn't be a war because the USSR would still be around).

And Russell Brand is a known nutcase.

So the USA forced Putin to invade a sovereign nation to rape and kill its citizens and now won't let him leave?

Seems like I'm adding you to the list!
