Recently there has been uproar over Panarin’s prognostication that the U.S. will break up due to the financial crisis. "The country's foreign debt has grown like an avalanche; this is a pyramid, which has to collapse" said the analyst in an interview published on Monday in a Russian publication.
How does the wild Aztlan theory fall into Panarin’s research? To paraphrase the famous song by Los Prisioneros, we might have to take a “Tren al Sur”:
In an interview with the Russian newspaper Izvestia, he outlined how the US would divide along ethnic and cultural lines.If Panarin’s thoughts due come true, would that make Miami the capital of el Nuevo Sur? What would replace the confederate flag? Could there by a civil war based on racial divides?
They are: the Pacific coast with its growing Chinese population; the increasingly Hispanic South; independence-minded Texas; the Atlantic Coast; a central state with a large Native American population; and the northern states where – he maintains – Canadian influence is strong.
Alaska could be claimed by Russia, he said, claiming that the region was "only granted on lease, after all". – [ed. emphasis added]
In the end, those questions make as much sense as the notion of an Aztlan "invasion". Please feel free to go ahead and loosen your tin foil caps.
