I’m torn between his wondering if Russia might invade western europe (perhaps Putin could run Belgium?) and his suggestion that protests in the UK (tuition fees) and Ireland (no money) are somehow part of a Muslim Brotherhood plot. Also: he says Italy is “on fire” but I think that’s only true of Silvio Berlusconi and even then only in a Humbert Humbert sense…
