The World in 2012

[Soi Dog]

I am reading The Economist's annual publication of their predictions for the year ahead, as I always do. For my $22 I expected more from them, but am always disappointed. It gets thinner and pricier each year and the number of advertisment pages now outnumber the content pages by a wide margin.

The worst part is that they are so timid with their "predictions". Printing things like "The Eurozone may not dissolve in 2012 but there is a chance it just might" is NOT a prediction. Those are the only two options that exist. Have some balls for God's sake.

Here are a few possibilities for the upcoming year 2012. Click the box to agree. Leave it blank to disagree.
To have your individual predictions noted you can copy and past the following into your response with a yes or no after each one. Whoever
gets the most right gets the title of Khmer440.com Nostradamus. Add your own predictions if you wish.

Barack Obama re-elected.......................
Nicolaus Sarkozy re-elected.....................
Greece drops the Euro currency.................
Israel/US bomb Iranian nuclear sites...........
Assad loses power in Syria.......................
Another military coup in Pakistan ..............
Terrorists hit the London Olympics .............
The Mayans were right and we're all F*cked ....

Perhaps you should add this one to the list:
