MOSCOW – If you're inclined to believe Igor Panarin, and the Kremlin wouldn't mind if you did, then President Barack Obama will order martial law this year, the U.S. will split into six rump-states before 2011, and Russia and China will become the backbones of a new world order. Panarin might be easy to ignore but for the fact that he is a dean at the Foreign Ministry's school for future diplomats and a regular on Russia's state-guided TV channels. And his predictions fit into the anti-American story line of the Kremlin leadership. "There is a high probability that the collapse of the United States will occur by 2010,"

[P.O.E.]

It’s already over.

You’d be crazy to invest and make money, knowing that someday soon the government will regulate, tax, sue & red tape you out of profitability.

Maybe 2 regions, but not 6. Texas could split off and become a new country, leaving all the debt to the old USA. Then other states that feel the same way could unite with Texas to become a new republic.

[Ditter]

Nah, 4 regions. East coast, west coast, flyover and Texas. God Bless Texas!

It was their USSR which broke up into 15 or 16 parts!

uh, they are obviously out to reform the old Soviet Union, or something close to it. They never really died, they just went into hibernation for awhile.

[BellStar]

And as you may or may not know because we were once a Republic, Texas has the right to become a Republic once again!

[kjam22]

No way. Texas will belong to Mexico... or Mexico will belong to Texas. Either way that’s their future :)

[kjam22]

So if you do then I’ll need a passport to go every october and watch the sooners kick the longhorns?

[BellStar]

And as you may or may not know because we were once a Republic, Texas has the right to become a Republic once again!

Than the Republic of Texas will once again kick some Mexican a$$!

[Ditter]

Then you must say the same about NM AZ and CA.

[RetiredArmy]

The way the Dims are running things, I won’t be surprised.

[GOPJ]

President Barack Obama will order martial law this year... Hmmmm...

[BellStar]

As you wish I am an A&M fan!

[ETL]

Bump that. Pretending it does not exist is suicidal.

Yet even the 'right-wing' media practically dismisses them and/or the ChiComs as a threat. We have dopes on CNBC and other places that actually encourage Americans to invest in China. They've being doing it for the past decade or so. I guess making money is all that matters for some people.

[Iron Munro]

Harrumph!!

This is about as likely as Americans electing a black, inexperienced racist/socialist as president just because it feels good to vote for a black.

It’s rather disconcerting that FReepers find this article so popular.

It's rather disconcerting there is a good chance it's true

That zer0 and his comrades are out to destroy this economy is rather obvious to all but those who cannot/will not see.

[BellStar]

AMEN!

[kjam22]

If it breaks up into regions. The flyover states will own most of the NUKES!

[rightwinggoth]

I’ve been reading about this for months. It sounded pathetic and ignorant then and it sounds pathetic and ignorant now.

[BellStar]

comrades will be comrades!

"obvious to all but those who cannot/will not see."

My father saw it before he died and almost called it event by event all except Obama's name that was 2002!

[mel]

The South would be a region and that would be fine with me.
