Not exactly Monthly Review. MR Online is a blend of good articles and bad articles that appear elsewhere. I would say that the article itself is a mixture of good and bad.
The guy who puts out MR Online is a lot like Yoshie Furuhashi who preceded him. His politics are similar to Grayzone and other "axis of resistance" websites and magazines. I should add that this stuff is ubiquitous. Last week The Nation, that should have known better, published an article by Grayzone's Aaron Maté absolving Assad of a chlorine gas attack in Douma. It is what I would call vulgar anti-imperialism.
