Noam Chomsky is so anti-US intervensionist that he is willing to give anyone who is opposed to the US the benefit of the doubt. This alone is not a criticism but a fact.
The criticism comes when we look at who falls into that category. Famously starting with the Khmer Rouge, he claimed that we shouldn’t believe the refugees escaping the killing fields. After evidence emerged he also famously never admitted he was wrong. He denies the Bosnian genocide, and most recently he has said such charming things as: “we should give Putin the benefit of the doubt” (regarding the Ukraine war).
