US Splitting Up

Quote :

For seriously predicting that the United States will break into six parts in June or July of 2010, Igor Panarin has suddenly become a Russian state-media celebrity. Hardly a day goes by without another interview or two for the KGB-trained, Kremlin-backed senior analyst. The clamor in Russia for his ideas is growing, he says.

Panarin's disintegration divination comes complete with a map. In it, Alaska goes to Russia. Hawaii goes to Japan or China. "The California Republic" — the West from Utah and Arizona to the Pacific — goes to China. "The Texas Republic" — the South from New Mexico to Florida — goes to Mexico. "Atlantic America" — the Northeast from Tennessee and South Carolina up to Maine — joins the European Union. And "The Central North-American Republic" — the Plains from Ohio to Montana — goes to Canada.

This man knows nothing of Geo-Political Geography. We aren't the USSR. Even if we were doomed to their same fate the divisions would be much different.

Sounds like someone who belongs on The Art Bell show.

I laughed my butt off when I saw that report. Too funny. It would never happen here.

Remember when some in California wanted to split up and be Northern California and Southern California? It didn't happen.

I was told that there was a time that Lake County, IN and Cook County, IL wanted to form their own state.
