In Russia reaches out to Europe's far-right parties, you said "Frankly watching our Tea party and Oligarchs in action I hope he pulls it off. People need to be woken up. We have forgotten our history and are coming rapidly to a very bloody future."

Those far right parties that you want Putin to help are the same fascist parties that Prof. Krugman is warning about - the French National Front, the Northern League in Italy, UKIP in Britain. So you're hoping for fascist victory in Europe. If you're not glad that you regard the current government in the USA as fascist, then why are you wishing for Europe to suffer the way you see the USA suffering?
