The Euro crisis may have been designed to bring about horrific social unrest on the continent and bank collapses that infect the USA also and lead to pandemonium there. A link event in the USA (aka "9-11 v2.0") could lead it into war with Russian satellite states that in turn leads to a wider, general global war. When it's over and the elites emerge from their fallout shelters and resume ordering the survivors of this horror show around, their mantra will be:
"All the world's ills were caused by diversity. Diverse states, diverse currencies, diverse governments, diverse economies and diverse religions. The only solution is unity". This is the revolution in worldwide political thought that they are hoping the coming cascading crises will lead to.
See interview with James Wesley Rawles' for his most recent take on this (he thinks 80% of USA's population will die in what's coming):
