Is it possible that this union is formed by the peoples of the countries who speak Indo-European languages? These peoples certainly share a huge cultural similarity, some of them have preserved the original Indo-European culture better than others, and it is possible for other ones to explore the roots of their traditions from them.

After this long time, many things have been forgotten and we can revive them by forming this cultural union, we can research about those things which are common among us to identify the influences of other cultures on our original culture.
 
If you look at dictionaries then you will find that some words in different Indo-European languages are almost the same, for example about the words which begin with "N" we see Na (No), Nau (New), Nama/Noma (Name), Nu (Now),  ... it shows for some reasons some things have not been changed, I think we should preserve our ancient culture, and it is better that we use other Indo-European words, instead of using non-Indo-European ones, for example from 1400 years ago, Persians also use Arabic word "Esm" for "Name", it would be better to use English Name, if Old Persian Nama was forgotten.

Never, its impossible. Too many nations, too many languages, too many cultures. Most of the indo-European nations dont even like each other... LOL we cant even get Pashtuns and Tajiks to get along, or the Azari's and Kurds get along, or even the Americans and the French...

Never gonna happen. These "similarities" that you speak of are non-existant. Our languages may have the same roots, sure, but those roots are the very basics and mean absolutely nothing today. And our cultures are not similar at all. European culture is far different from Iranian culture. Iranian culture is far different from Indian culture. Etc...

Just look at this map:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:IE_countries.svg

(dark green: all the countries with majority Indo-European languages. light green: countries with minority indo european languages).

Actually, scratch that, YES IT IS POSSIBLE! only if the entire world comes together as one, not based on language or culture, but based on the fact that we are all the same, we are all humans.

Unless I am entirely incorrect TGS is suggesting but one thing;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictatorship_of_the_proletariat

Yes, the "Dictatorship of the proletariat1", a true Marxist, exhibiting his wares!

Well, you can either take his view or not?

I would prefer not to!
