Russian Professor: Collapse Of America Could Begin In Two Months
Paul Joseph Watson Tuesday, September 1, 2009
Russian Professor Igor Panarin says that events are continuing to confirm his doomsday prediction first made over 10 years ago, that the United States will completely collapse like the Soviet Union before the end of 2010, and warns that the chaos could begin to unfold in as little as two months.
Panarin, doctor of political sciences and professor of the Russian Diplomatic Academy Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told journalists during the unveiling of his new book yesterday that President Obama has done nothing to forestall the fast approaching crisis and that it could begin to properly unfold in November.
“Obama is “the president of hope”, but in a year there won’t be any hope,” said Panarin. “He’s practically another Gorbachev – he likes to talk but hasn’t really managed to do anything. Gorbachev at least had been a secretary of a regional communist party administration, whereas Obama was just a social worker. His mentality is totally different. He’s a nice person and talks nicely – but he’s not a leader and will take America to a crash. When Americans understand that – it will be like a bomb explosion.”
Since 1998, Panarin has been warning of a future disintegration of the United States and the collapse of the dollar. The recent election victory for Japan’s Democratic Party is another sign that the economic collapse of the U.S. is imminent, according to Panarin.
“Today I received another confirmation that the collapse of the dollar and the US is inevitable. Japan’s Democratic Party won the election, and I’d like to remind you that its leader [Yukio Hatoyama] has the snubbing of the dollar among his economic plans. In plainer words, he plans to transfer Japan’s monetary reserves from US dollars into another currency. The move will seriously accelerate the dollar’s exchange slump as early as this November. Disintegration will follow shortly,” he said, adding that next year China would also begin to massively dump the dollar and that Russia would begin to sell oil and gas for roubles.
Panarin previously stated that the dollar would eventually be replaced with “a common Amero currency as a new monetary unit”, referring to the Security and Prosperity Partnership agreement between the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
He foresees the U.S. breaking up into six different parts, roughly along lines similar to those of 1865 during the Civil War, “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,” according to Panarin.
Longer term, Panarin predicts that the breakaway states will eventually be taken over by the European Union, Canada, China, Mexico, Japan and Russia and America will cease to exist altogether, as depicted in the illustration above.
Panarin blames the collapse on a “political elite that implements an absurd and aggressive policy that aims to create conflicts around the planet” and warns that increasing firearms sales in the U.S. are a sign that people are preparing for “chaos” in the aftermath of a total financial meltdown.
“In my opinion, the probability of the US ceasing to exist by June, 2010 exceeds 50%. At this point, the mission of all major international powers is to prevent chaos in the US,” Panarin concluded.
No prob. I appreciate your reading it. I think I sound a little like that street corner nonsense from time to time.
When I said, back in September of 2006, that this thing could get as bad or worse than the GD, my emotions said, “That’s crazy talk”. But my logical mind said that I need to separate my emotions from the perspective. I did. It fell out, at a high level, exactly as I thought it would. I also think it has not come close to bottom yet.
And yes, I firmly believe this one will end VERY badly, as the last GD did. The more I watch events unfold, the more I see that happening. We are in the eye of a perfect storm, and it picked up a lot of steam since we entered the eye.
The bond market bottomed in December and the stock market bottomed in March. The Fed balance sheet peaked in April. The real economy (GDP) bottomed early in the 3rd quarter. Unemployment will take another 3-6 months to top out, but the corner is already turned, long since.
In 2 weeks we get the next installment of the Fed's Z.1 data, which will tell us what has happened to US household net worth since the March bottom. I expect to see it come in up $3-5 trillion over the end of 1st quarter level.
The government can still try to pile on giant tax increases at the worst possible time, if the Democrats want to make their political suicide total and rapid. That's about all there is left to worry about domestically. Abroad there is Iran and nobody is doing anything. In 2 years we will all wonder why everyone wasn't fgcused on that, instead of hyperventilating about yet another utterly normal economic cycle.
I switched to bonds a while back.
Regarding your claim that it is done, as I said to people in 2007, let’s compare notes in Spring of 2008. This time I’ll say Spring of 2010.
I’ll admit it is possible I am wrong. Time will tell.
Zhe shi Mei Guo. Jiang Yingyu!
>>You more conservatively have until next spring, and are mad as a March hare.<<
Well, we’ll know by next Spring. Love the pun, btw. :)
I am sincerely curious about your take on Gerald Celente, btw. You see, I do believe you may be right. I think you are wrong, but I am not totally married to my position because I know that no matter how much one knows, this really is crystal ball stuff.
The system survives solely on faith. I see the faith crumbling still, and about to be ramped up. You see it as getting stronger. I think we both agree that if everyone, collectively, suddenly realized on what foundation this system stands, there would be an instant collapse and revolution. But it is always being debated and ignored.
My point is that I do think your support for your position is sound, but I think mine is too. And we are both talking about something that is not as black and white about whether or not a particular airplane engine has enough thrust to get it off the ground. We are talking about something that, because it depends on the response of people both individually, and as a mob. And nobody can predict that, regardless of the fundamentals on their side.
I still find the video interesting where “experts” were laughing, literally, at Schiff back in 2006 - and he was dead right. It is possible that you may be the next Schiff. Or Schiff’s prediction about gold was just a bit premature.
We have "green shoots" of growth all over, with nothing but bright daze ahead,
thanks to the economic policies of Barack Obama and the Democratic-led Congress:

>>Nope, it isn’t about “faith” and it isn’t unknowable or any such mystical bullshiite<<
With that I strongly disagree. Sorry, I just do.
>>The US economy rests on the intelligence, decency and sweat of the American people and it will bury you and your pack of doom crowing witch doctors just as it has buried every previous pack of them. You aren’t an interesting equal with another point of view. You are a raving moonbat and a fool.<<
Allrighty then. I was giving you too much credit. Looks like I struck a nerve.
See you in March.
