    Panarin wrote a controversial essay predicting the collapse of the United States of America by July 2010 following a civil war triggered by mass immigration, economic decline and moral degradation. This was first presented in September 1998, when Panarin attended a conference in Linz, Austria, devoted to information warfare. In 2008 Panarin's theory gained increasing attention from Russian state media following the 2008 financial crisis. Other Russian commentators such as Vladimir Pozner dismiss his predictions.[2][3]

    I love when people denote opinions as "Anti-"[us, whoever that may be].

    I don't think it will happen. Like the British guy said there's not much 'scientific' evidence to support the guy's claims....right?

    I don't think this is the realm of science, this dude is trying to draw parallels to the Soviet Union, which is pretty much nonsense.

    After reading more, i think this only really got enough attention because there's a lot of anti US sentiments flying around in Russia right now, and it makes an excellent tool for Russian nationalism. I do think things are going to get pretty bad during 2009 and people will be very disappointed with Obama, but a collapse in 2010 of the US is just something i've never heard of from my political science professors. I guess we'll see.

Supposedly there are several sources that say it will, and not just the Mayans; just that the mayans hold the most evidence I guess you can call it and have the strongest say in the matter (EVEN THOUGH THEY DISAPPEARED OMG)

    Edit:

    On this topic, i agree with Kuya's last post. Lots of people expect the world out of Obama and they expect it instantly. Shit takes years people, nothing is going to change in 09, he's going to get some of the blame and disappointment as well. 2009 will be a very interesting year for sure, but 2010 is too soon for something like this to happen... especially with the mexico taking some states lmaooooooooooooooooooo really does this guy even know what/where mexico is lol. THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES ARE GOING TO TAKE OVER NEW JERSEY I SWEAR BY IT

    The man's right. America is doomed and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

    100% correct, if the US were to collapse, the current global financial crisis will seem like an economic boom by comparison. This is why I lol'd at China and Russia becoming the financial caretakers, shifts like that won't happen in 24 months, and I sincerely doubt an economy that is as precarious and dependent on non-renewable energy and ecological devastation as China can be counted on to become a financial "caretaker"

    I interpret half of nostradamus' prediction as him talking about my penis, the other half being about my balls.

    I advise everyone else to do the same, it's a really good feeling having someone that's long dead writing vague verses upon verses talking about your crotch.

    Use clitoris and labia if you're a female I guess.

    Damn chinese and mexicans takin alla white man land.





    Seriously though, to say it sounds a bit far fetched is an understatement. Colonialism ended after WWI. There is no way China would take a colony as big as the western united states under its wing.

    Their army of burro and banditos is clearly superior to whatever we have.
