As to that ominous blog you mentioned, it has next to nothing to do with this interview outside of the fact that they apparently translated the transcript. As far as I can tell, the video was first posted on a YouTube channel associated with a member of the State Duma and Putin's party United Russia, Yevgeny Fyodorov. This guy seems to be something of a "patriotic" loudmouth, but that's not a rare thing, unfortunately. I've come across his kind even on seemingly liberal internet forums.
But then I did take a look at that blog and, after a few minutes, found the following note:
Personal announcement: dealing with Nazis and other racist trolls
With the recent sharp rise of readers of this blog (well over 1'000'000 visits in total and 10'000+ visitors per day) a equally sharp rise of Nazi and other racist troll clearly happened. My policy in the past has been to either crush their sophomoric and ignorant views by posting rebuttals, but now I simply do not have the time to play Kindergarten cop with these obsessive-compulsive Jew haters. And yet, I cannot simply censor their posts because that would contradict the core value of my blog - complete freedom of thought. This, of course, puts me in front of a dilemma: do I let these cretins pollute my blog, or do I give up on my ideal of freedom of though and speech? I wish I had a "virtual sandbox" were I could send these folks and let them play together, talking about Jew-this, Jew-that, Hitler-this, Hitler-that, but I don't have that. So what I propose to do here is to post a short appeal to them and to the rest of you, mentally sane and educated commentators, in the hope that this will help. Let's begin with the tedious part: ...

Still, I also found, next to quotes from George Orwell, Arundhati Roy, Ghandi and the Bible one from Ron Paul: "Truth is treason in the empire of lies", apparently cited as a motto. Which may be a hint that the author of this blog is a paleoconservative. Or maybe he just likes the quote, I can't tell. Anyway, I have no reason to "align" myself with this blog and don't intend to, so, no worries.
