Professor Igor Panarin, whose book The Crash of America is just out, claims that by November the book will be yesterdays news.
Panarin believes President Obama will lead his country to a breakup. Panarin compares Obama to former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev.
Obama is the president of hope, but in a year there wont be any hope. Hes practically another Gorbachev he likes to talk but hasnt 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. Hes a nice person and talks nicely but hes not a leader and will take America to a crash. When Americans understand that it will be like a bomb explosion, Panarin said, speaking to journalists during the unveiling of his book.
Panarin made his controversial forecast back in 1998, saying 2010 would be the starting point of the collapse. He spent the following eleven years monitoring the events around the US and says they largely confirm his theory.
Today I received another confirmation that the collapse of the dollar and the US is inevitable. Japans Democratic Party won the election, and Id 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 Japans monetary reserves from US dollars into another currency. The move will seriously accelerate the dollars exchange slump as early as this November. Disintegration will follow shortly, he added.
Amid all these pessimistic statements, Panarin once labeled by a WSJ journalist as a polite and cheerful man with a buzz cut insists he is by no means a US-hater but, rather, just a scientist.
Im not anti-American, the US population has nothing to do with the part of its political elite that implements an absurd and aggressive policy that aims to create conflicts around the planet .I hope to see the reasonable part of the American elite I know there is one benefiting in these two months left till the collapse. I can name two people that belong to this reasonable part US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs William Burns. If they triumph in the political strife, the consequences of the collapse will be minimized.
The 2009 US budget deficit is 4.5 times the 2008 deficit, while firearms sales are up 40%. On October 1, the coupons that were given to state workers are to be cashed out. When the workers realize that they are getting nothing for those coupons, they will take out their firearms and chaos will unfold. Meanwhile, in a separate issue, as the financial year draws to a close on September 30, its results will be published. They are destined to shock investors worldwide. After that, and the snubbing of the dollar by Japan and, especially, China, which will transfer 50% of its international operations to Yuan starting in 2010, the currency will then flow like a landslide out of style. Argentina and Brazil are excluding the dollar from mutual financial operations starting January 2010, while Brazil offers to move toward alternative currencies throughout the whole of South America, Panarin noted.
He also suggested Russia follow suit and begin selling oil and gas for roubles.
Panarin still leaves room for miscalculation, which would actually make him happy. And should the collapse not start in November, he is ready to explain why it didnt happen by December. But at the moment, the collapse looks quite likely.
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.
Thanks nit. I was also interested in the link to the ‘handguns’ thread. I never knew about the Liberator handguns dropped during WWII! Very interesting.

I imagine the French Resistance found them handy - too bad the Warsaw Ghetto and others in Poland did not have them
The brave French Resistance civilians were great at attacking German tanks in Paris too - Jump right on them - grenades or bottles of gasoline or fueloil right down the hatch
The Liberator :
Stamped sheet steel (simple, crude)
.45ACP cartridge - 1-shot - makes a dandy big hole
General Motors made them - others to I imagine
Small, cheap, disposable
Jump right in.
You know.... I first heard about this clown’s predictions about a year ago... and, I thought. Yeah, right...
Now?? I wish I could dismiss it as craziness... but, honestly?? I see about a 10% chance that he’s exactly right. It wouldn’t take much to convince this Texan to move home and start a new country.

Yup
That is it!
Unlike that stupid French machinegun the US used in WW! instead of the great BAR - the Liberator actually worked!
Trying to recall the name of that French SMG
It was made with hand-fitted parts - nothing interchanged in the field! It jammed because the magazine was open to dirt in the trenches!
The American brass thought the Germans “could capture some BARS” and copy them !!!
Before Little Big Horn - the Washington brass took CW Spencer repeaters from the troops and made them use .45-70 single-shot Springfield Trapdoor carbines
The Injuns had Henry Civil War repeaters, some Winchester 73s, and some CW Spencer repeaters
The Springfield was a single-shot .45-70 - great for long range accuracy and power - but mucho slooow and unreliable with copper cartridge cases in close combat - and the cartridge case often expanded or jammed - the soldier had to use a special tool to remove the ruptured cartridge case as an Injun rode up with a lever-action .44 and dusted him
Another big goof was Custer’s:
“We will not be needing those Gatling Guns!”
That and underestimating the numbers of Injuns and not controlling his forces properly
The Battle of Greasy Creek - was not a success
[The Battle of Greasy Creek - was not a success]
Reminds me, I’ve been trying to find an entertaining thread without success.
On New Year's Day, 2010, the weather, the FDIC, the Iranians, The Usurper's transfer of intelligence data, his failure to take retaliatory action, and the rise of the superflu will make it clear how the rest of 2010 is going to develop.
If anything, the Russian is an optimist.
There's going to be a lot of available parking space by Christmas, 2010, no matter where you shop.

Hussy Junior is dominating FR threads
you left out the swine flu......
The French SMG - “Chauchat”.
Eight months ago I would have laughed. Now, it is within the realm of the possible.
