I mean, "we're the baddies" and all that. I think the CoD has kinda lost any semblance of resonability a long time ago (maybe it never really had any), but hell if this isn't going full villain mode into a remake (?) of a mainline game.

I only played the first 2 back in the day, and frankly they already had their fair share of anti-soviet bullshit propaganda. Then, as you say, CoD4 hit... and you play Fox News Modern Warfare
Yeah they were very obviously inspired by Enemy at the Gates, unfortunately. But it didn't feel as malicious as CoD4 onwards felt; more like just general Yankee ignorance and bias.
