PDF March 3, 2022 (EIRNS)—The LaRouche Organization today released a 64-page pamphlet under the title: “Stop Global Britain’s Green War Drive.” There is an irony in the title which is essential for all citizens, of all nations, to grasp, so as to become what Friedrich Schiller called a “patriot of one’s nation and a citizen of the world.”That irony is that the hysteria being riled up against Russia over the military operation in Ukraine is intended to blind the world to the actual war being fought on a global scale, against the entire world’s population. The evidence is not hidden—it is literally being shoved in your face every day, every hour, in the form of economic decay and hyperinflation, driven by the demand that the human race commit genocide against itself by shutting down fossil fuels, shutting down nuclear power plants, denying modern technology to the already impoverished and starving former colonial nations—all to “save the planet” from carbon. Regardless of the easily demonstrated scientific fact that carbon has essentially nothing to do with the climate, the Green New Deal is the new religion of the royals and the billionaire bankers and speculators who gather every year at the Davos World Economic Forum to celebrate their demonic power to impose Malthusian genocide on the world’s population through their control of credit. Mark Carney, the former head of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, and a hitman for Prince Charles and the royals, proudly described their plan for genocide in a Nov. 13, 2021, Guardian op-ed: “In April [2021], we launched the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), which now covers the entire waterfront of finance: banks, insurers, pension funds, export credit agencies and asset managers. It comprises more than 450 leading financial institutions from 45 countries. Its members have committed to managing their assets, which total more than $130tn, in line with achieving 1.5C…. New loans and investments from GFANZ members will not only fund green projects such as renewable power, but will also go where the emissions are—in sectors such as autos, steel, cement—and back those companies with plans to decarbonize, while withdrawing capital from those companies that aren’t moving fast enough.” [emphasis added] This plan to destroy development internationally was rejected by Russia, China, and India, among others, knowing that their economic progress, as well as that of all developing nations, depends on fossil fuels (and more advanced forms of energy, such as nuclear fission and eventually fusion). This was the last straw for Charles and the Lords of the City of London—“Off with their heads!” This is, of course, what Lyndon H. LaRouche has warned of over the past fifty years. The financial oligarchy runs the world economy and the governments of the western world. The decisions of war and peace are made by the banking elite, while the military-industrial complex is but a subset of that imperial structure. That is why the British and the United States were so ruthlessly driving NATO’s military forces up to Russia’s border, while a similar process is taking place in the Pacific against China. They would prefer there be no world war, for which there would be no winner, and very possibly human annihilation (but better war than bankruptcy!). The economic warfare is nonetheless war, what they so quaintly describe as the “financial nuclear option,” or the “mother of all sanctions.” Quite openly, the White House and other European leaders have declared their intent to destroy the Russian economy, while planning the same for China. Isn’t it interesting that Russia’s military operation is described as a war crime, justifying the total destruction of the Russian economy—did we ever hear this about the “shock and awe” against Iraq, Libya, or Syria, none of which had any legal or moral justification? With all the screaming about civilian deaths in Ukraine, are there any cries of pain for the 24 million Afghan citizens now being intentionally starved to death as Joe Biden steals their money? Mankind is at a precipice. It is heading rapidly into a new Dark Age. This can be reversed, but only by a total transformation, a new strategic architecture for all nations, which also assures the right to development for all. This is the intention of the Schiller Institute petition, Convoke an International Conference to Establish A New Security and Development Architecture for All Nations, which you should sign and circulate. This is also the intention of the LaRouche Organization pamphlet referenced above: “Stop Global Britain’s Green War Drive.” Contact us to get multiple copies of this pamphlet, to distribute and to organize your fellow men and women. Your life depends on it.

The United States has repeatedly made decisions contrary to the proposals and policies of Lyndon LaRouche over the last half-century, since Nixon’s dismantling of the Bretton Woods system. One example was LaRouche’s Homeowners and Bank Protection Act of 2007, which addressed a problem that was not recognized as a problem, while posing a solution that ran entirely counter to the prevailing, suicidal economic trends. At that time of LaRouche’s proposal — prior to the collapse of the U.S. housing bubble, which triggered a financial panic that drove an initially recalcitrant Congress to vote and then vote again for a bailout under threats of the imposition of martial law — not only were rising house prices and levels of homeownership (or at least mortgage holdership) seen as positive economic indicators, the financial products created based on these mortgages fit right in to the increasingly speculative, financialized, and fraudulent “economy” of the United States.How was the U.S. transformed from being the primary producer of advanced goods for the entire world in the years following World War II, to an increasingly unproductive land of worsening infrastructure and anti-human culture? Nixon’s 1971 termination of the gold-reserve system and fixed exchange rates, ushering in a casino economy whose remnants of large-scale growth were largely derived from the monumentally successful Apollo Moon program of the decade before. LaRouche’s forecasts and insights into this seismic shift in U.S. economic policy drove him towards decades of work as an economist, statesman, and eight-time U.S. presidential candidate. The failure to reverse the trend represented by that action by Nixon, the failure to install the scientific, cultural, and economic policies of LaRouche in the decades that followed, confront us today. An explosion of evictions is expected in the United States, with the expiration of the federal eviction moratorium put in place due to COVID. Yet the stock markets are soaring. The delta variant spreads rapidly in fertile ground as the world eagerly hopes to get back to normal. Yet vaccinations continue their glacial advance in many of the poorer nations of the world, and the paltry billions needed to speed their production are not forthcoming. But why do there even exist poor nations and poor people today? China’s meteoric rise shows how rapidly development can be accomplished. Why has it been an exception rather than the rule? And can Afghanistan—a present crossroads of world history—escape decades of warfare and violence to become a rapidly growing, international partner for peace and development? The LaRouche movement, now headed by Helga Zepp-LaRouche, has laid out the parameters for this perspective, and fostered the quality of discussion needed for its achievement. Will this intention succeed? Heed the sound advice of the former President of Mexico José López Portillo, “for the world to listen to the wise words of Lyndon LaRouche. Now it is through the voice of his wife. … How important that they enlighten us to what is happening in the world, as to what will happen, and as to what can be corrected. How important that someone dedicates their time, their generosity, and their enthusiasm to that endeavor.” To that end, the LaRouche Legacy Foundation invites the world to participate in an online seminar — held on the 50th anniversary of Nixon’s announcement — to examine the unique contributions of Lyndon LaRouche (1922—2019) to the science of physical economy. There is an urgent need to reflect on what has gone wrong with economic policy in the trans-Atlantic sector over the last five decades, in order to correct those persisting policy blunders and change course before we plunge into a breakdown crisis comparable only to the 14th-century New Dark Age. Register for the seminar here and, in the meantime, heed, and act on, the wise words and courageous devotion of Lyndon LaRouche.

As the G7 leaders take turns patting each other on the back for having good old times again without Trump causing all manner of discord, and wax lyrical about their no doubt very thoughtful ideas for a green future unencumbered with readily available and efficient power supplies—as this fantasy unfolds, reality can be heard knocking, no, pounding on the door. It makes its entry.It comes as inflation—growing by the day, and becoming more and more difficult to ignore by changing the metrics used to hide it. Financial markets, commodities, houses, food, all sectors of the economy are seeing dizzying price increases, many blamed entirely on Covid while being driven by a hyperinflationary policy of money-printing and expansion of the central banks’ balance sheets. It comes as deaths and misery—created by unilateral sanctions that crush livelihoods, devastate economies, prevent development, and deny health care, including vaccines. It comes as war—unnecessary, humanity-ending war used as a threat against any powers that would seek to challenge Anglo-American hegemony. Its principal targets, Russia and China, well recognize the increasing depths of the danger. It comes as lies—as the absurd concoctions presented as authoritative truth by the approved media staffed by, controlled by, and promoted by the London-Wall Street-Washington slime-mold that must hide both the potential of the emerging new paradigm and the genocidal intent and outcome of the policies it promotes to maintain its hold. False conclusions are only a part of the technique—fostering a type of social interaction totally inimical to a socratic search for truth plays an even larger role, in large part by denying the universality of humanity. But reality need not be feared! In fact, its powerful presence allows a quality of communication, of dialogue, possessed by an urgency befitting the time and a heightened openness to discover. It brings with it the work of Lyndon LaRouche, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, and their collaborators, whose work over decades has provided a historical framework for understanding the present world, an economic science for clearing a path forward, and a cultural impulse that allows for profound and impassioned dialogue—the method of the coincidence of opposites. Learn from that movement: • On Friday, June 11, LaRouche Independent for U.S. Senate Diane Sare hosted an economic discussion that laid bare galloping hyperinflation and pointed to the way out. • On Saturday, June 12, Helga Zepp-LaRouche engaged in a discussion with dozens of young people from around the world, addressing directly the coincidence of opposites as it emerged from the creative mind of Renaissance-creator Nicolaus of Cusa. • Also on Saturday, The LaRouche Organization hosted a powerful discussion of sanctions, media control, and organizing. • Looking ahead two weeks, the Schiller Institute will host a two-day conference “For the Common Good of All People, Not Rules Benefiting the Few!” Learn more and register and recruit others to register.
