Aleksandr Dugin-- THIS is the man you should know about !!!!!!

Aleksandr Gelyevich Dugin......... is a Russian political scientist known for his fascist views....... who calls to hasten the "end of times" with all out war......He has close ties with the Kremlin and the Russian military,[.......having served as an advisor to State Duma speaker Gennadiy Seleznyov....... and key member of the ruling United Russia party Sergei Naryshkin.[15] However, commentators dispute his influence: in the words of Alexander Nevzorov, "if we had had Sergey Kurginyan and Dugin instead of Putin, there would have been hell for all of us to pay, they would have unleashed a European and World War without a shadow of a doubt, without considering consequences at all."

In the Kremlin, Dugin represents the "war party", a division within the leadership over Ukraine...... Dugin is seen as an author of Putin's initiative for the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation...... He considered the war between Russia and Ukraine to be inevitable and appealed for Putin to start military intervention in eastern Ukraine..... Dugin said, "The Russian Renaissance can only (be) stop(ed) by Kiev."....... During the 2014 pro-Russian conflict in Ukraine, Dugin was in regular contact with pro-Russian separatist insurgents...... He described his position as "unconditionally pro-DPR and pro-LPR"

On 10 October 2014, Dugin said, "Only after restoring the Greater Russia that is the Eurasian Union, we can become a credible global player.

As Israeli political scientist Vyacheslav Likhachov states, "If one seriously takes the fact that such a person as Alexander Dugin is the ideologist of the imperial dash for the West, then one can establish that Russia is not going to stop as far as the Atlantic Ocean."
