In the game, Russia is responsible for the Venezuela coup, and are currently invading the "Middle East" like Israel.

North Korea mindlessly slaughters their people

It's honestly fucking hilarious

Least-worst is still a low bar, I don't really think cod4 is that self aware. It's nominally anti-war in a way that fits DoD narratives and shit: 'The REAL HEROES are the HARD SAS BLOKES doing DIRTY WORK BEHIND THE SCENES who NEVER GET ANY CREDIT', underscored by the news headline that's read after you kill Zakhaev. Anti-War-Pro-Soldier, so like First Blood but without any officers down. Plus the russian ultranationalists are depicted as complete bastards even though what Zakhaev says in the intro is pretty much true about the post-Soviet USSR.
