Russian "Infowar" Analyst Says U.S.
Will Break Apart
Author, professor predicts collapse of unified America
due to terminal economic and political decline

A renowned Russian political analyst has repeated a prediction
he made ten years ago that the economic and political turmoil
in the U.S. will lead the country to collapse and divide into
separate parts.
Igor Panarin, doctor of political sciences and professor
of the Russian Diplomatic Academy Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
repeated
the prediction in an interview, published yesterday,
with the widely read Russian daily Izvestia.
"The dollar is not secured by anything."
Panarin commented.
"The country's foreign debt has grown like
an avalanche, even though in the early 1980s there was no debt.
By 1998, when I first made my prediction, it had exceeded $2 trillion.
Now it is more than 11 trillion. This is a pyramid that can only
collapse."
"It is already collapsing." He continued,
"Due to the financial crisis, three of the largest and oldest
five banks on Wall Street have already ceased to exist, and two
are barely surviving. Their losses are the biggest in history.
Now what we will see is a change in the regulatory system on a
global financial scale: America will no longer be the world's
financial regulator."
Panarin suggests that China or Russia, or a coalition
between the two countries, would replace the U.S. as a new world
market regulator.
He also stated that there is a move underway to
replace the Dollar 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.

Panarin is an expert in the theory and practice
of information warfare and has authored nine books, including
“Information War in Russia”, “Information War
and Elections”, “Information War and Power”.
His political essays are regularly published in various revered
journals.
Citing intense political dissatisfaction due to
lost savings, the rampant decline of industry, higher unemployment,
higher prices, and "divisions among the elite", Panarin
says he expects the U.S. to eventually break up into six separate
parts.
Along lines similar to those of 1865
during the Civil War, Panarin predicts the U.S. will
split into the following territories:
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.
Panarin says that only the hope of some sort of
miracle economic turn around under an Obama presidency is holding
back such mass upheaval.
While the prediction may sound alarming to some,
it is not so far fetched.
Article IV of the United States Constitution provides for the
creation of new states of the Union, requiring that any such creation
be approved by the legislature of the affected state(s), as well
as the United States Congress.
In the past there have been many attempts
and proposals for breakaways and secessions. Many
contend that the U.S. will continue to evolve and change in this
fashion.
Most recently, earlier this year, the state of Oklahoma
drafted a resolution (PDF) claiming sovereignty under
the Tenth Amendment, serving notice and demand to the federal
government to cease and desist mandates beyond the scope of constitutionally
delegated powers. While this may be a leap away from secession,
the increasing dissatisfaction with the federal government's role
in the economic crisis could see more of the same kind of activity
becoming commonplace.
Addendum: A version of the RIA Novosti article
linked above has appeared unsourced on the Drudge
Report today, minus the section concerning the move
towards the Amero currency.
