Nothing in this is giving other shadow governments a break here.

I think it's great to point out the crimes of the CIA because they are popularised so much in western media, go on Netflix and look at action movies and TV shows, you'll be able to find a good number which feature the CIA and them being the "saviours"

Being the saviours, often by running amok all over the place (and blowing half of it up). Which has now been normalised, when the police doing the same (in movies, still) in their city at least get a vague reprimand.
