Russian predicts breakup of U.S.

Drudge Reports on the predictions of Russian political analyst
Professor Igor Panarin:

..."Asked why he expected the U.S. to break up into separate parts, he said: "A whole range of reasons. Firstly, the financial problems in the U.S. will get worse. Millions of citizens there have lost their savings. Prices and unemployment are on the rise. General Motors and Ford are on the verge of collapse, and this means that whole cities will be left without work. Governors are already insistently demanding money from the federal center. Dissatisfaction is growing, and at the moment it is only being held back by the elections and the hope that Obama can work miracles. But by spring, it will be clear that there are no miracles."

He also cited the "vulnerable political setup", "lack of unified national laws", and "divisions among the elite, which have become clear in these crisis conditions."

He predicted that the U.S. will break up into six parts - the Pacific coast, with its growing Chinese population; the South, with its Hispanics; Texas, where independence movements are on the rise; the Atlantic coast, with its distinct and separate mentality; five of the poorer central states with their large Native American populations; and the northern states, where the influence from Canada is strong”...


We say if the States were given the true independence legally offered them by the Constitution of the United States there would be far less need of a breakup. This is the preferred, practical, Conservative, light-federal direction we affirm. But if this is not our future than the Russian prediction is quite possible. The other possibility is a large, tyranical, police State, from the left or the right.
