/... Down, down to the ground with her!
O Daughter of Babylon, you devastator, you!,
who ought to be and shall be destroyed,
happy and blessed shall he be
who requites you as you have served us.
Happy and blessed shall he be
who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock!/
- Psalm 137.7-9 (Amplified)

"...let a country be small and it's people few" - Lao Zi (~400 BC)

There is but one possible solution and that is the dissolution and 
balkanisation of the
United States.  It is too big, and too powerful, and therefore much too 
evil.

It was never meant that the United States should have this sort of 
corporate power
derived from the joining of individual sovereign states.  Enough is enough.
It is time for the US of A to be dissolved.

We have waited for the people of the US to stop its aggressive imperial 
activity.

The time of waiting is over.

Let Lincoln's Union be dissolved, once and for all.
Let that which is one become many.
Unleash the dogs of dissolution and let them feast.

Let the whole Earth Rejoice.
