Letter of Transmittal February 6, 2014

At this very moment, the world stands on the brink of potential thermonuclear

extinction. This does not mean that civilization is doomed. It does mean that

we are very close to a strategic confrontation between the United States and

some NATO allies on the one side, and Russia and China on the other.

The one and only source of the war danger is the desperation among factions

in London, which would rather see the world wiped out, than face the loss of

global financial power. This desperate City of London-centered financial oli-

garchy, and its Wall Street appendage, operate through the vast—yet often

underestimated—powers of the British monarchy, whose stated intention is to

reduce the world’s human population from currently seven billions persons, to

less than one billion.

There is presently a chasm, a fundamental difference in future perspectives,

between the trans-Atlantic region of the world and the Eurasian region of the

world:

The former has abandoned the scientific and technological optimism so char-

acteristic of the Kennedy era, in order to embrace “greenism”, an oligarchical

unscientific creation that will deliver a future fueled by “soft energy” sources,

whose low energy flux density will inevitably result in a rapid depopulation of

the planet. That trans-Atlantic region’s economic future looks very bleak un-

der the present policies, as the financial oligarchy moves to extend, to every

nation within that region, their “Greek model”, where the European Troika has

now imposed a banker’s dictatorship that has enslaved every man, woman and

child of that once proud and ancient nation, that had been the birthplace of

Western democracies!

The Eurasian sector, with all its imperfections, is nonetheless presently

strongly committed to economic growth and scientific and technological

achievement. Nuclear energy is being expanded throughout that region and, as

exemplified by the recent Chinese rover landing on the Moon, whose primary

scientific task is to explore the possibility of future mining on the Moon of the

helium-3 gas, that would serve as the primary fuel source of future fusion en-

ergy reactors, thereby accelerating both the scientific and economic feasibility

of fusion energy for the nations of the world.

The Immediate Danger

In the Executive Intelligence Review (EIR) fact sheet on Ukraine, an impor-

tant and timely featured item included in this Special Report, we warn that the

Ukrainian developments could become the flashpoint for triggering World

War III.

We quote from the opening paragraphs of that report here:

are backing an outright neo-Nazi regime-change coup in Ukraine. If the effort succeeds, the consequences will

extend far beyond the borders of Ukraine and neighboring states. For Russia, such a coup would constitute a ca-

sus belli, coming as it does in the context of NATO missile defense expansion into Central Europe and the evolu-

tion of a U.S.-NATO doctrine of "Prompt Global Strike," which presumes that the United States can launch a pre-

emptive first strike against Russia and China and survive the retaliation.

The events in Ukraine constitute a potential trigger for a global war that could rapidly and easily escalate to a

thermonuclear war of extinction. At this weekend's Munich Security Conference, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei

Lavrov had a heated public exchange with NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, in which the latter

accused Russia of "bellicose rhetoric" and Lavrov responded by citing the European missile defense program as

an attempt to secure a nuclear first-strike capability against Russia.

In his formal remarks at Munich and a week earlier at the World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland, Lavrov

also assailed Western governments for supporting neo-Nazi terrorist organizations in their zeal to place Ukraine

under European Union and Troika control to tighten the NATO noose around Russia.

The Urgent War Avoidance Measures:

Our Special Report urges the appropriate governments to deal with the two immediate measures which would

greatly diminish the threat of thermonuclear war:

1) The removal of President Barack Obama from the Presidency, either through a formal impeachment proc-

ess, or through the application of the 25th. Amendment to the United States Constitution or simply by a Nixon-

style forced resignation.

2) The voting up in the immediate period of a coordinated global Glass-Steagall-type legislation in the major

Parliaments of the trans-Atlantic region, thereby putting in orderly bankruptcy the City of London and its Wall

Street appendage and opening up the possibility of replacing the present bankrupt world monetary system with a

new world economic system based on the principles of Alexander Hamilton’s National Bank for productive public

credit.

3) Such a Hamiltonian world credit system would then permit worthwhile national and continental great infra-

structure projects to get built over the one or two decades necessary for completion, therefore building the bridges

towards peace based on the leitmotiv of the encyclical Populorium Progressio that the new name for peace is de-

velopment.

4) Finally, the long-term harmony of interest of all human beings is to get sovereign nations to work towards

the common aims of Mankind and that would certainly put space cooperation at the top of the list, not only for

defence against incoming asteroids, as proposed by Russia’s present leadership, but in order to reach, within this

Century, a true Age of Reason for Mankind based on Mankind’s mastery of space and the exploration of near

earth planets and eventually the Solar System and beyond.

Prelude

What Must be Understood

LaRouche’s Opening Remarks to his January 3, 2014 International Webcast:

On the Measures Needed to Stop World War

The NATO ABM system encircling Russia (conjoined with the USA-led system

around China) features the greatest threat now confronting humanity.

LaRouche replies...

There will never be a survival of the United States

within the nominal term of Obama's Presidency. What

you have, is you have many people—for example,

probably 60% of the voters in the United States are op-

posed to Obama, and wish he would go away. The prob-

lem is, they're terrified. And Snowden's case tells you

partly a good illustration of what the fear is. So, there-

fore, they hate Obama. But many people hated Hitler—

and remember that. The ability of Hitler to do what he

did, did not depend upon the issue of a majority of what

people thought they wanted to see. They gave in to Hit-

ler, under a reign of terror, and the history of that is

well-known to some of us, even of your age.

So, therefore we have to eliminate all these cheerful

things, and trying to put a cheerful note, and talk about a

possible solution. There is, and are solutions, but none

of them are being put forthcoming, now. You have

something in Germany which may tend to be a break-

out.

What's the situation? We're not going to have, under

Obama, continued under the present policy, Obama will

not be the President of the United States. He is on the

end of this thing. He's unimportant! This is not an elec-

tion campaign. The election campaign was made a long

time ago, when people came in with the green policy. It

came in, actually, with the ouster of Bismarck, because

when Bismarck was kicked out, from that moment

on the world in general, especially the trans-Atlantic

region, has been engaged in off-again, on-again con-

tinuation of world war. That's what the truth has been.

Just think of the history. Very shortly: How do wars

start? Well, the war that we're talking about started with

the assassination of the President of France. Then it

came to another one. And then you had the war involv-

ing China, Japan, and so forth. It kept coming, and com-

ing, and coming. And then, in 1914, the Guns of Au-

gust, we had aworld war. But it didn't end there! There

was a peace of a certain kind; it wastemporary. The

United States shot back, with President Kennedy, later,

as they had done earlier, but all these things didn't stop.

LaRouche on the Measures

Needed to Stop World War III On January 3, 2014, Lyndon LaRouche and Matt Ogden engaged in a dialogue concerning the deadly potential for ther-

monuclear confrontation in 2014 –that dialogue represents a revolution in thinking through, and acting to prevent, the

potential war of extinction now facing humanity. The LaRouche/Ogden webcast dialogue completely and clearly exposes

the underlying historical causes of the present U.S./ Trans-Atlantic breakdown, the means to reverse it, and the actual

means to stop the outbreak of war.

LaRouche’s following opening remarks were spurned on by a question on the destruction of the American labour force

which is now touching 25% in real unemployment figures. The questioner asked LaRouche about his analysis of the U.S.

economy under the remaining time of Obama’s term in office and asked how a solution to the crisis could be arranged.

For example, Kennedy's success, boosted by Eleanor

Roosevelt, actually turned the tide in a certain direction.

When the tide began to turn, they killed him! They mur-

dered him! and tried to cover up the assassination, and

did fairly successfully.

What happened then? On the successful execution of

President Kennedy, we had a war start in Indochina. For

the first couple of years, it was considered a war. After

that, it was a called a drug orgy. And the drug orgy then

took over the United States. And if you want to take

from the time that Kennedy was assassinated, within that

very period, since that time, the United States and its

population has been degenerating intellectually and mor-

ally. And that's the present condition today.

Now, this condition is leading to

what? What's on the table now?

G e n oc i d e : p os s i b l y h u-

man extinction within a matter—

it could come in a matter of

weeks now, or it could come in a

longer period of time. We're on

the edge of a thermonuclear war.

Now, a thermonuclear war is

nothing to compare with what had

happened in the earlier wars—

World War I, World War II.

These were minor events com-

pared to what's about to hap-

pen right now.

And it's being pushed. Look at the

line-up! You have the trans-

Atlantic region. Now, the trans-Atlantic as a whole is

now in a process of accelerated rates of degeneration.

The United States is now economically hopelessly and

socially degenerating, and the rate of degeneration is

going to accelerate. Everything you thought was bad in

recent experience is going to become much worse, and

very quickly. It could become very quickly.

Now, in the meantime you've got war looking around.

You have a line-up of powers. First of all, you have the

trans-Atlantic region is the concentration of one side of a

world power. The core of that thing is the British Em-

pire, the Anglo-Dutch Empire, headed up nominally by

the Queen. The Queen's intention has been—as she has

made public since the Copenhagen conference—her in-

tention has been to reduce the human population from 7

billion persons, which it had been approaching just re-

cently, is now in a process of accelerated rate of decline.

And in the case of the United States, in the case

of most countries in western and central Europe, most

countries, most of this world is accelerating: it's dying.

Portugal, Spain. France is now in the process of collaps-

ing, degenerating. It's going, too. Southern Italy. The

Greek population. The only part of the western Euro-

pean, or western and central European part which has an

option in that region, is Germany, and they're fussing

around on that issue right now. Germany is inclined to

disengage itself from the rest of western Europe, be-

cause the rest of western Europe is dying—expect for

President Kennedy and Elenor Roosevelt in 1961

the Anglo-Dutch region, which ain't doing too good in

terms of their economy there.

All right, now you've got another part of the world. Let's

call it the Eurasian part of the world. We have to call it

Eurasian because it includes Russia and nations associ-

ated with it. And it goes all the way to the Pacific Ocean.

This is the Eurasian part of the world. The Eurasian part

of the world, except for certain areas that we know about

in the Near East and so forth, and from the Uyghurs and

people like that, the entirety of this Eurasian region, as

an entirety, with the dominant forces within it, is actu-

ally on the way up. It has been increasing its technologi-

cal power and capabilities.

The Moon landing! Now, we've discussed that here, and

in our own discussions in other places. The Moon land-

ing, the latest one, goes to the question of Helium-3:

thermonuclear fusion. And that means that suddenly we

have a major power, China, which has a major capabil-

ity, which is not merely a tickle of the type the United

States did on the Moon before. This is a really serious

business. They set up an operation, for

an extended operation into space, and for other kinds of

things. And they are working what had been known be-

fore as a Helium-3 potential of the Moon. If they exploit

the Helium-3 in the Moon, suddenly China and nations

cooperating with it are going to have a source

of power available to them which would be a revolu-

tion—a planetary revolution. On that basis, mankind

would get its feet out of the ditches of Earth itself. Be-

cause once you do that, once you go to a Helium-3 op-

eration, milking the Sun regularly to get more Helium-3,

and using that, which is an equivalent of what we've

wanted to do here on Earth.

If we do that, then you have a source for high-speed—

really high-speed, relative to anything we've done

now—to moving around inside the area of the Solar Sys-

tem where we're close to, such as Mars. I mean, the area

with Mars and so forth, that area becomes open to us.

Then the natural tendency, the natural ability of man-

kind, as our potential, will now begin to take over, not

just sitting on Earth and grunting and groaning about

what's going on, but actually mankind not living out of

Earth, but actually controlling things out of Earth, such

as some of these asteroids. And we will use them—we'll

not only defense ourselves against them, we'll use them.

So, therefore mankind will be moving off the surface of

the Earth, not where he lives—though some of that may

occur—but in terms of what mankind is able to reach

and control, and develop for the benefit of mankind. And

also we'll begin to get more worried about building up

the Solar System. We'll begin to think about the long-

term question of: Can we maintain the Solar System,

which has been in a long period ofdecline over the re-

cent times? Mars has collapsed because the Sun was

running down. That's why it collapsed.

The Moon collapsed; it has been collapsing, because

the Sun was running down.

So, therefore, our developing—not only utilizing,

but developing—these resources like Helium-3 into a

higher form of organization, mankind will become able,

or enable if he chooses to do so, to actually take action

against the continuing decline of a Sun which about to

go dead in about 2 billion years, or something like that,

and then go into an explosion which ends everything.

So, therefore we have before us, we have to have a dif-

ferent perspective than the poor idiots who are whimper-

ing and whining about this and that. Because this is

where we're going.

Now, in this context, what's the military situation? The

trans-Atlantic region is building up for a war, a thermo-

nuclear war in the early future. The intention of that war,

as the Queen of England's actions since Denmark and

subsequently, is committed to the accelerated extermina-

tion of the human population to the degree of probably 1

billion people might be lucky to survive—

"China has made no secret of their interest in

lunar Helium-3 fusion resources," said Harrison

"Jack" Schmitt, a former Apollo 17 moonwalker and professional

geologist. Pictured above is the Chang-e 3 lander on the moon.

or unlucky enough to survive under those conditions.

So, therefore, the option— The whole process here, look

at it! What is the hatred against human beings? What's

the nature of it? What's the expression of that? It's the

green policy! This was done by the Roman Empire and

other forms of these kinds of people: to reduce the popu-

lation, that is, to have a small oligarchy which dominates

the planet, or parts of the planet, and kill off the excess

population, which is the rest of the people. This is what

the Queen's policy is, and that is what she says it is.

So, who's the key? Well, the key of this is the Anglo-

Dutch system. The center of this whole operation that I

just talked about, is the Anglo-Dutch initiative, which is

really an empire which dominates—directly and indi-

rectly combined—dominates the world, not only in its

physical practice, but in its cultural extension:

the green policy. How many greenies are there in the

United States and in Europe? They're all brainwashed.

They're condemned to extinction by the things they be-

lieve.

This is what happened to the Roman Empire. The Ro-

man oligarchy got tired of trying to feed all these people,

and began mass-killing them with experiments like in the

arenas, and in the killing of the Christians. The mass-

killing of the Christians was largely an extinction proc-

ess. And then Rome as such collapsed; the Roman Em-

pire collapsed upon itself. The remnants exist, and the

wealthy Romans picked up their property, their jewels

and so forth, moved up to the northern part of the Adri-

atic, sat around there in the mud for a while, and then

became known as Venetians. Well, this is the new mean-

ing for "Venetian blind," and we have a lot of people

who are Venetian blinds in that sense!

So, this is what we're up against. We're up against a phe-

nomenon which is not uncommon in human history, and

that is in known human history. And the story of Prome-

theus, as against Zeus, is a real story, it's a true story, but

it represents the typification of the kind of policy which

we are faced with right now. The determination is, which

is centered in expression in the Anglo-Dutch Empire,

which is not limited to the British and the Dutch: It's

global. Australia! Most of Africa, the Middle East, the

Saudi Kingdom, for example. These are all extension of

this Empire, which is comparable in its intention to be

something like the Roman Empire was.

So, we've had, in human history, we've had periods of

large-scale extinction caused by an oligarchical tendency

in some population, which goes out to kill people in the

way that the people of Troy were extinguished. They

weren't just killed, they were extinguished! And that's

what we're looking at now.

Now, go back to the strategic issue again. What's the

reality? The greatest power in the world, right now, lies

in the Eurasian area. Why? It is growing. There are some

parts that aren't growing. But China is growing. Russia is

growing—it's reversed its population collapse. Other

parts are growing. We now have a coalition emerging in

Eurasia, which is not totally unified, but a very powerful

part is there. The economy of that area of

the world is improving. The policy of the

trans-Atlantic region stinks, it's dying, at

an accelerating rate. As you know now,

after January 1st of this year, that the

death rate in this United States is going to

accelerate immediately, unless we stop it.

That's the key part of the story. But part

of the answer to the question that was

posed to us is, if we don't have the guts to

throw a crooked, evil President out of

office to save the United States, that's the

problem. Forget all this thing about the

coming several years, how things are go-

ing to work out. There're not going to be a

couple, several years, unless we change

things.

10

Now we have, as I say, about 60% of the eligible voters

in the United States have a rather strong and increasing

inkling toward having this guy go

away, in the very near future, that's

their desire. But at the same time that

this development is occurring, what

you have is the process in which the

enemy, which includes our President,

who's the enemy of the people of the

United States, his policies are the en-

emy of the survival of the United

States. Look at his frauds, look at his

fraud on his health-care fraud—he's

literally killing people en masse, and

they're sitting there, whining, but say-

ing, "We have to work with this, we

have to live with this guy." And the

others are saying, "I hate him." And

some are saying, "Let's get rid of

him."

So that's what the situation is. This is the reality. The idea

of trying to explain things by some little explanation, and

some source that tells you this fact and that fact—this is

nonsense! We're talking of a process which has been long

known in the human species, in the human populations,

have been engaging in these kinds of things, with an oli-

garchical movement killing off those who are of lesser

power.

And that's what's happening again. The Queen has made

it plain. Her husband has written it, others have written it;

the Greenie movement entirely is part of that. Every

Greenie that exists, pushing the Green

policy, is actually an enemy of the hu-

man species, in just exactly that way.

And why are we suffering in the United States?

The Green policy killed us. The Greenie policy is what

poisoned the United States.

The people of the United States as they're born are be-

coming dumber and dumber and dumber, and worse than

dumber, generation by generation—we call them success-

ful degenerations. Their education stinks. Education in

the schools today in the United States virtually does not

exist. There's a certain kind of show, manipulation, and

cheap old show. But brain change? Brain development?

Mind development? No, it doesn't exist. It's getting worse

and worse and worse. And together with that degenera-

tion of our young people in California, for example,

with their thumb game—they're insane! They're not

just dumb — they are dumb—but their dumbness

takes a quality of insanity with this thumb and related

business. The education system which produces this

thumb-on-thumb is part of the degeneration.

So therefore the problem is, what do we do practi-

cally? That's the question. You take all of these con-

siderations which I've summarized. What do we do

practically? We've got to reverse the education pol-

icy. We've got to reverse the Green policy—we've

got to eliminate the Green policy. Without eliminat-

ing the Green policy, the United States can't exist.

And most of Europe can't exist. Whole nations of

Europe are about to disintegrate, disappear

“The more people there are, the more resources

they’ll consume, the more pollution they’ll create,

the more fighting they will do.

We have no option. If it isn’t

controlled voluntarily, it will be

controlled involuntarily by an

increase in disease, starvation

and war. ...In the event that I am

reincarnated, I would like to re-

turn as a deadly virus, in order to

contribute something to solve

overpopulation.”

-Prince Philip of Edinburgh

Young people have been so miseducated under an imperial school

system such that they don’t believe that there is a difference be-

tween mankind and animals. Here, Australian eco-protestors

stand next to a banner that reads “We live in an ecology. Not an

economy”

11

from the map.

And how can you stop it? Well, you have one factor.

We have a factor in the Eurasian region, including Rus-

sia, China, and so forth; a number of powerful nations

who are coming together, and forming an aggregation,

not as an empire, but as a coalition. Their intention is

growth. Their intention is typified by what China did, in

landing on the Moon. And when you look a little closer

at what is included in the features of that landing, you

see here's a nation which has picked up on something as

a mission, which could be the salvation of the United

States, if we would join in it.

There is no good reason for a war at this time in the

world, no good reason. If you think the thermonuclear

and related power, which can be assembled for a war of

nearly most of the world, when you think of in terms of

the thermonuclear and related capabilities, of military

forces of the opposing forces from the trans-Atlantic

and the Eurasian area, the possibility of extinction of the

human species is sitting right before us.

The problem here is—what's the problem? We have

people who are like the poor guys, who didn't have the

authority. They know they were being, as they say,

"screwed," and worse and worse and worse. They know

they're losing their jobs, they're losing their health care,

they're losing their education, they're losing their rela-

tions with everybody. They're being destroyed. They

know it, and they hate it, more and more. But what are

they doing to act, to free themselves of that problem?

And that's what's lacking.

Now what happens is, what's a typical person say, that

knows this, that hates these guys, increasingly, but

really doesn't act effectively in any way? What's the

problem? "Well, I know you're right, but I'm not going

to say anything about it, I'm not going to do anything

about it, because I've to take care of myself, my oppor-

tunities, my family, and so forth. Therefore, I'm not go-

ing to resist, I'm going to protest." And will protesting,

under those conditions, stop a thermonuclear war? No.

So the problem is, lies essentially with the man in the

street in the United States. Because if the United States

were to throw this bum, this so-called President, out of

office, there would be a change in the ability of the typi-

cal citizen, to begin to begin to act to force a change in

policy. Now the typical citizen does not want to have a

part of a thermonuclear war. But what he's going to say

is, "I hope it doesn't happen." But this has to

be made not to happen. And this requires that the peo-

ple—I know these American people, I'm very familiar

with them, over a longer period of time than most of

you—and I know them. They have these feelings, a

typical American tends to have a generally good ten-

dency somewhere in them, about what they think the

future should be. They think in terms of, you know,

coming generations. They think that their children

should somehow be better off or at least more secure,

and have opportunities. And they know all this. And

they hate it, because they're accepting that being taken

away from them. And from that comes the question of

the ability of a small crew of dirty, evil thugs who

seized as happened—right after Kennedy's, after the

President's death. People caved in, they took it. People

who had been at war, who had been warriors in a victo-

rious war, caved in.

And we divided the American people against those who

were kissing the butt of one class of people, a smaller

number, and doing everything against the really vital

interest and future interest of the majority of our people.

And that's the weakness, because of the corruption

which has occurred with bad Presidents of the United

States, with drug dealers, and simply with these charac-

ters on Wall Street. We tolerate these people, we allow

them to subordinate our people, crush them, cheat them,

loot them, kill them through the effects of what they do,

and we can do nothing for our cause, the cause of the

human species, the common interests of the American

people in particular.

And that's what I say. The greatest danger to us, because

I know what the American people could do if they

would throw Obama out of office, and that's the only

way that I see that the world can survive, avoid a ther-

monuclear war: If the American people were to throw

Obama out of office, given the lack of popularity, esti-

mating maybe running into 60% of our citizens, voting

citizens, we could stop this. We would not allow the war

to start! And if the United States would not start the

war, it couldn't be pulled off!

And that, I think, is the only reality to think about on

this issue.

by Jeffrey Steinberg

Jan. 25—The violent events now unfolding in

Kiev, Bangkok, and Cairo cannot be seen as sepa-

rate and unrelated events. In every case, the hand

of the Anglo-Dutch empire is visible, reflecting

what Lyndon LaRouche has identified as the grow-

ing danger of a global war leading to potential war

of thermonuclear extinction. The driving force be-

hind all of these acts of asymmetric warfare is not

to be found in the local conditions, per se, rather, it

is the desperate and dying forces of the trans-

Atlantic Anglo-Dutch empire who are driving the

chaos.

The case of Ukraine is exemplary. Since the fall of

the Berlin Wall, it has been the strategic goal of

that empire, centered in the British monarchy, but

extending into the Bush and Obama White Houses,

the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and other controlled

assets, to split Ukraine from Russia, and draw it

into the European Union as an agricultural feudal

satrap. That effort was dealt a stunning blow late

last year when President Yanukovych rejected the

Eastern Partnership Agreement with the EU, and

instead moved to deepen economic and political

cooperation with Russia. From that moment on, the

British have been driving to overthrow the

Yanukovych government and install pro-EU

forces. When mass protests fizzled, the British

reached back to longtime hooligan networks, in-

cluding outright fascist gangs and remnants of the

wartime pro-Nazi circles which were absorbed into

NATO intelligence at the close of World War II

through the CIA's Gehlen organization.

Now, those rampaging hooligans, allied with pro-

EU factions of the opposition parties, are demand-

ing the ouster of Yanukovych, rejecting an offer

over the weekend for a stake in a coalition goverm-

nent. Natalia Vitrenko, a leading Ukrainian politi-

cal figure, former President candidate, and former

member of the National Assembly, denounced the

Yanukovych offer of a compromise with the oppo-

sition as a dangerous capitulation, and called on the

government to stand its ground (see below for a

political statement signed by Vitrenko and 28 other

political and social organization leaders).

The use of terrorism has been the hallmark of re-

cent British operations on the ground in Thailand

and Egypt as well, where the ruling parties have

refused to cave in to Western demands for uncon-

ditional surrender.

Geneva II Sabotage

In Geneva last week, a similar scenario played out

at the opening of the Geneva II talks to bring an

end to the three-year conflict in Syria. At the start

of the session, clearly on orders from President

Obama and National Security Advisor Susan Rice,

Secretary of State John Kerry put the removal of

President Bashar Assad on the table as an uncondi-

tional demand. This demand, echoed by British

Foreign Secretary William Hague and representa-

tives of the Turkish and French governments, was

in contrast to the language of the Geneva I agree-

ment of June 2012, in which the Geneva II negotia-

tions were framed.

As the result of this act of sabotage, the outcome of

the talks is now in doubt, and the idea of launching

American military strikes against the Assad gov-

ernment has now been once again put

The Empire Lashes Out

14

on the table in an editorial in the Washington

Post. President Obama, under extraordinary pressure

from the Joint Chiefs of Staff and from the American

people, cancelled military strikes in early September

2013, after he had given the order to strike. The order

was delayed but never rescinded, and so now, Syria has

again become a flashpoint for war.

As the result of this, the gains made in the recent P5+1

interim deal with Iran are now also jeopardized. As of

Jan. 20, IAEA inspectors arrived in Iran, and verified

that the Iranians were in full compliance with the interim

agreement. In his appearance last week at the annual

World Economic Forum at Davos, President Hassan

Rouhani reiterated his pledge that Iran will never seek a

nuclear weapon, and that he is prepared to normalize

political and economic relations with the rest of the

world. Already, Asian diplomats and business leaders

have begun to resume trade with Iran following decades

of crippling sanctions.

Under the sanctions regime, the hardline factions, led by

the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), had

taken over the economy, which largely ran as a black

market enterprise, breaking the sanctions and blockades.

Rouhani represents forces committed to normalizing

Iran's role in the world, and that means stripping the

IRGC "mafia" of much of its economic clout. The Presi-

dent is hypersensitive to the fact that a hardline turn in

Washington or other Western capitals could give the

hardliners the leverage to crush his reform agenda.

Congress Reacts

It was in this context that a group of leading members of

Congress in Washington joined Sen. Dianne Fein-

stein (D-Calif.), chair of the Senate Select Commit-

tee on Intelligence, in putting the kabosh on a new

sanctions bill that has been pushed in the Senate.

The core issue facing the world as a whole is

whether the bankrupt Anglo-Dutch financial sys-

tem, centered in the trans-Atlantic region, will trig-

ger a global showdown with the nations of Eura-

sia—notably, Russia, China, and India—the part of

the world that is still growing, and has a perspective

of future progress. That future orientation is best

expressed in China's successful lunar exploration

program, including its declared intention to develop

the Moon's helium-3 resources to accelerate the

transition to a thermonuclear fusion economy in the

coming decades.

The Anglo-Dutch, on the other hand, face the problem

that their system is hopelessly bankrupt. Every lever for

global conflict is being pushed to the limit at the same

time.

As LaRouche has warned, so long as Barack Obama, a

certifiable tool of the Anglo-Dutch empire, is in White

House, the world remains on the cusp of potential ther-

monuclear extinction. There are ample reasons for

Obama's immediate impeachment, but the overarching

reason is that his removal is the only assured path to

survival for mankind as a whole. With Obama's finger

on the nuclear trigger, the danger in Ukraine, Syria, Iran,

and elsewhere is that U.S. actions can become the deto-

nator for a conflict that rapidly draws in all of the world

powers in a showdown between the dying trans-Atlantic

forces and the still-advancing Eurasian forces.

It is the clear understanding of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of

Staff that the war danger is real and imminent. This was

clearly reflected last week, when JCS chairman Gen.

Martin Dempsey met with his Russian counterpart Gen.

Valery Gerasimov, and they agreed that even if political

and diplomatic crises erupt between the two countries,

the military commanders must maintain their coopera-

tion as a war-avoidance factor. While invaluable, such

measures are no longer sufficient. Nothing short of

Obama's removal by constitutional means and the imme-

diate passage of Glass-Steagall in the U.S., a move that

will bankrupt the Anglo-Dutch system, can assure true

war prevention at this crucial moment.

By an EIR Research Team

Feb. 2, 2014—Western nations, led by the European

Union and the Obama Administration, are backing an

outright neo-Nazi regime-change coup in Ukraine. If the

effort succeeds, the consequences will extend far beyond

the borders of Ukraine and neighboring states. For Rus-

sia, such a coup would constitute a casus belli, coming as

it does in the context of NATO missile defense expan-

sion into Central Europe and the evolution of a U.S.-

NATO doctrine of "Prompt Global Strike," which presu-

mes that the United States can launch a pre-emptive first

strike against Russia and China and survive the retalia-

tion.

The events in Ukraine constitute a potential trigger for a

global war that could rapidly and easily escalate to a ther-

monuclear war of extinction. At this weekend’s Munich

Security Conference, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei

Lavrov had a heated public exchange with NATO Secre-

tary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, in which the latter

accused Russia of "bellicose rhetoric" and Lavrov res-

ponded by citing the European missile defense program

as an attempt to secure a nuclear first-strike capability

against Russia.

In his formal remarks at Munich and a week earlier at the

World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland, Lavrov

also assailed Western governments for supporting neo-

Nazi terrorist organizations in their zeal to place Ukraine

under European Union and Troika control to tighten the

NATO noose around Russia.

If anything, Lavrov understated the case.

Nazi Hooligans Take the Lead

Ever since President Viktor Yanukovych announced that

Ukraine was withdrawing its plans to sign the European

Union’s Association Agreement on Nov. 21, 2013, Wes-

tern-backed organizations made up of remnants of the

wartime and immediate postwar Nazi collaborationist

Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN-B) and

their successors have launched a campaign of provoca-

tions aimed at not only at bringing down the government

of Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, but at overthrowing

the democratically elected President Yanukovych.

The EU Eastern Partnership was initiated in December

2008 by Carl Bildt and Radek Sikorski, the foreign mi-

nisters of Sweden and Poland, in the wake of Georgia’s

military showdown with Russia in South Ossetia. The

Eastern Partnership targeted six countries that were for-

merly republics within the Soviet Union : three in the

Caucasus region (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia) and

three in East Central Europe (Belarus, Moldova, Ukrai-

ne). They were not to be invited to full EU membership,

but drawn into an EU vise through so-called Association

Agreements, each one centered on a Deep and Compre-

hensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA).

The prime target of the effort was Ukraine. Under the

Association Agreement negotiated with Ukraine, but not

signed, the industrial economy of Ukraine would have

been dismantled, trade with Russia would have been sa-

vaged (with Russia ending its free-trade regime with

Ukraine, to prevent its own markets from being flooded

via Ukraine), and the European markets’ players would

have grabbed for Ukraine’s agricultural and raw mate-

rials exports. The same deadly austerity regime as has

been imposed on the Mediterranean states of Europe un-

der the Troika bailout swindle would have been imposed

on Ukraine.

Furthermore, the Association Agreement mandated

"convergence" on security issues, with integration into

European defense systems. Under such an upgraded ar-

rangement, the long-term treaty agreements on the Rus-

sian Navy’s use of the crucial Crimean Black Sea ports

would have been terminated, ultimately giving NATO

forward basing on Russia’s immediate border.

While Western news accounts promoted the demonstra-

tions in Kiev’s Independence Square (Maidan Nezalezh-

nesti, or Euromaidan as it is now called), as initially pea-

ceful, the fact is that, from the outset, the protests

Western Powers Back Neo-Nazi Coup in Ukraine

16

included hardcore avowed neo-Nazis, right-wing "soccer

hooligans" and "Afghansy" combat veterans of the wars

in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and Georgia. According to

Ukrainian parliamentarian Oleh Tsaryov, 350 Ukrainians

returned to the country from Syria in January 2014, after

fighting with the Syrian rebels, including al-Qaeda-linked

groups such as the al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of

Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

Already, on the weekend of Nov. 30-Dec. 1, 2013, rioters

were throwing Molotov cocktails and seized the Kiev

Mayor’s Office, declaring it a "revolutionary headquar-

ters." Protesters from the opposition Svoboda Party, for-

merly called the Socialist-Nationalists, march under the

red and black flag of Stepan Bandera’s Organization of

Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN-B), the Nazi collaborators

who exterminated Jews and Poles as an adjunct of the

Nazi war machine, and in fulfillment of their own radical

ideas on ethnic purity, during World War II.

The slogan of the Svoboda Party, "Ukraine for the Ukrai-

nians," was Bandera’s battle cry during the OUN-B colla-

boration with Hitler following the Nazi invasion of the

Soviet Union. It was under that slogan that mass execu-

tions and ethnic cleansing were carried out by Bandera’s

fascist fighters. Ukrainian sources have reported that the

Svoboda Party was conducting paramilitary training du-

ring the Summer of 2013—months before President Ya-

nukovych made his decision to reject the EU Association

Agreement.

The neo-Nazi, racist and anti-semitic character of Svobo-

da did not deter Western diplomats—including U.S. As-

sistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Af-

fairs Victoria Nuland—from publicly meeting with the

party’s leader Oleh Tyahnybok, who had been kicked

out of the Our Ukraine movement in 2004 for his spee-

ches railing against "Muscovites and Jews"—using offen-

sive, derogatory names for both.

The Bandera fascist revival has been underway in plain

sight since the "Orange Revolution" of 2004, when Vik-

tor Yushchenko was installed as President of Ukraine

through a foreign-backed street campaign heavily finan-

ced by George Soros’s International Renaissance Founda-

tion and more than 2,000 other non-governmental organi-

zations from Europe and America, after he had been offi-

cially declared the loser in a tight presidential contest with

Viktor Yanukovych. On Jan. 22, 2010, one of Yushchen-

ko’s last acts as President, after losing his reelection bid

to Yanukovych by a wide margin, was to name Stepan

Bandera a Hero of Ukraine, which is a high state honor.

Yushchenko’s second wife, Kateryna Chumachenko,

was herself a member of the youth group of the Banderist

OUN-B in Chicago, where she was born, according to

news accounts. In the

1980s, Chumachenko

headed the Washing-

ton offices of the

Ukrainian Congress

Committee of Ameri-ca (in which OUN-B influence was great

at that time, accor-ding to the Internet Encyclopedia of Ukraine) and the Na-

tional Captive Na-tions Committee, be-fore moving over to

the State Department Bureau for Human

Rights.

The neo-Nazi resurgence leading the revolt n Ukraine has gained the

support of western powers. Here Svoboda youth rally with a picture

of Hitler’s key Ukrainian collaborator Stephan Bandera, who was

made a national hero by former Ukrainian President Yushchenko.

In January 2011, President Yanukovych announced that

Bandera’s Hero of Ukraine status had been officially re-

voked.

The OUN-B : A Bit of History

The Bandera OUN-B legacy is critical to understanding

the nature of the armed insurrection now unfolding in

Ukraine. The Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists was

founded in 1929, and within four years, Bandera was its

head. In 1934, Bandera and other OUN leaders were ar-

rested for the assassination of Bronislaw Pieracki, the

Polish Minister of Internal Affairs. Bandera was freed

from jail in 1938 and immediately entered into negotia-

tions with the German Occupation Headquarters, recei-

ving funds and arranging Abwehr training for 800 of his

paramilitary commandos. By the time of the Nazi inva-

sion of the Soviet Union in 1941, Bandera’s forces

consisted of at least 7,000 fighters, organized into "mobile

groups" that coordinated with German forces. Bandera

received 2.5 million German marks to conduct subversive

operations inside the Soviet Union. After he declared an

independent Ukrainian state under his direction in 1941,

Bandera was arrested and sent to Berlin. But he maintai-

ned his Nazi ties and funding, and his "mobile groups"

were supplied and given air cover by the Germans throug-

hout the war.

In 1943, Bandera’s OUN-B carried out a mass extermina-

tion campaign of Poles and Jews, killing an estimated

70,000 civilians during the summer of that year alone.

Although Bandera was still running the OUN-B opera-

tions out of Berlin, the ethnic cleansing program was run

by Mykola Lebed, the chief of the Sluzhba Bespeki,

OUN-B’s secret police organization. In May 1941, at an

OUN plenary in Krakow, the organization issued a docu-

ment, "Struggle and Action of OUN During the War,"

which stated, in part,

"Moskali, Poles, Jews are

hostile to us and must be

exterminated in this

struggle." ("Moskal" is

derogatory Ukrainian

slang for "Muscovites,"

or Russians.)

With the defeat of the

Nazis and the end of the

war on the European

front, Bandera and many

leaders of the OUN-B

wound up in displaced per-

son camps in Germany and

Central Europe. According

to Stephen Dorrill in his

authoritative history of

MI6, MI6 : Inside the Co-

vert World of Her Majes-

ty’s Secret Intelligence

Service, Bandera was re-

cruited to work for MI6 in

April 1948. The link to the

British was arranged by

Gerhard von Mende, a

former top Nazi who had

headed the Caucasus Divi-

sion of the Reich Ministry

for the Occupied Eastern Territories (Ostministerium).

Von Mende recruited Muslims from the Caucasus and

Central Asia to fight with the Nazis during the invasion of

the Soviet Union. At the close of World War II, he wor-

ked for the British through a front company, Research

Service on Eastern Europe, which was a recruiting agency

for principally Muslim insurgents operating inside the

Soviet Union. Von Mende was instrumental in establis-

hing a major hub of Muslim Brotherhood operations in

Munich and Geneva.

Through von Mende, MI6 trained agents from the OUN-B

and dropped them inside the Soviet Union to carry out

sabotage and assassination operations between 1949 and

1950. A 1954 MI6 report praised Bandera as "a professio-

nal underground worker with a terrorist background and

ruthless notions about the rules of the game."

In March 1956, Bandera went to work for the German

equivalent of the CIA, the BND, then headed by Gen.

Reinhardt Gehlen, the head of German military intelligen-

ce on the Eastern Front during World War II. Again, von

Mende was one of his sponsors and protectors. In 1959,

Bandera was assassinated by the KGB in West Germany.

Bandera’s top OUN-B killer, Mykola Lebed, the on-site

commander of the group’s secret police, fared even better

at the close of World War II. Lebed was recruited by the

U.S. Army’s Counterintelligence Corps (CIC) in Decem-

ber 1946, and by 1948, was on the CIA payroll. Lebed

recruited those OUN-B agents who did not go with Ban-

dera and MI6, and participated in a number of sabotage

programs behind the Iron Curtain, including "Operation

Cartel" and "Operation Aerodynamics." Lebed was

brought to New York City, where he established a CIA

front company, Prolog Research Corporation, under the

control of Frank Wisner, who was the head of the CIA s

Directorate of Plans during the 1950s. Prolog operated

well into the 1990s, getting a big boost when Zbigniew

Brzezinski was President Jimmy Carter’s National Secu-

rity Advisor.

In 1985, the U.S. Department of Justice launched an

investigation into Lebed’s role in the wartime genocide

in Poland and Western Ukraine, but the CIA blocked the

probe and it was eventually dropped. Nevertheless, in

2010, after the release of thousands of pages of wartime

records, the National Archives published a documentary

report, Hitler’s Shadow : Nazi War Criminals, U.S. In-

telligence, and the Cold War, by Richard Breitman and

Norman Goda, which included a detailed account of

Bandera’s and Lebed’s wartime Nazi collusion and in-

volvement in mass executions of Jews and Poles.

It is this Bandera-Lebed legacy, and the networks spaw-

ned in the postwar period, which are at the center of the

current events in Ukraine.

Speaking Out

On Jan. 25, 2014, twenty-nine Ukrainian leaders of poli-

tical parties, civic and religious organizations, including

former presidential candidate and parliamentarian Nata-

lia Vitrenko, sent an open letter to the United Nations

Secretary General and leaders of the EU and the United

States, decrying the Western support for the neo-Nazi

campaign to carry out a bloody coup against a legitima-

tely elected government.

The open letter read, in part : "You should understand

that, in supporting the actions of the guerillas in Ukrai-

ne ... you yourselves are directly protecting, inciting,

and egging on Ukrainian neo-Nazis and neo-fascists.

"None of these oppositionists (Yatsenyuk, Klitschko, and

Tyahnybok) hide that they are continuing the ideology

and the practices of the OUN-UPA.... Wherever the Eu-

romaidan people go in Ukraine, they disseminate, besi-

des the slogans mentioned above, neo-Nazi, racist sym-

bols.... Also confirming the neo-Nazi nature of the Euro-

maidan is the constant use of portraits of the bloody exe-

cutioners of our people, Bandera and Shukhevych—

agents of the Abwehr."

The open letter posed the question to Western leaders:

"Have the UN, the EU, and the U.S.A. ceased to reco-

gnize the Charter and Verdict of the International War

Crimes Tribunal at Nuremburg, where the Hitlerite Na-

zis and their henchmen were convicted ? Have human

rights ceased to be a value for the countries of the EU

and the world community ? Is the Ukrainian nationalist-

s’ devotion to Hitler and his mass murders of civilians

now considered democracy ?"

Only in the recent days, with scenes of mass violence by

armed protesters finally breaking through the propagan-

da fog, has the Western media taken up the neo-Nazi

character of the ongoing destabilization. Time magazine,

on Jan. 28, headlined its coverage from Kiev "Right-

Wing Thugs Are Hijacking Ukraine’s Liberal Uprising,"

profiling one group of neo-Nazi hooligans called Spilna

Sprava ("Common Cause," but the Ukrainian initials

spell "SS"), as being near the center of the protests.

The next day, Jan. 29, the Guardian headlined "In Ukrai-

ne, Fascists, Oligarchs and Western Expansion Are at

the Heart of the Crisis," with the kicker : "The story

we’re told about the protests gripping Kiev bears only

the sketchiest relationship with reality." Guardian repor-

ter Seumas Milne candidly wrote, "You’d never know

from most of the reporting that far-right nationalists and

fascists have been at the heart of the protests and attacks

on government buildings. One of the three main opposi-

tion parties heading the campaign is the hard-right anti-

Semitic Svoboda, whose leader Oleh Tyahnybok claims

that a ’Moscow-Jewish mafia’ controls Ukraine. The

party, now running the city of Lviv, led a 15,000-strong

torch-lit march earlier this month in memory of the

Ukrainian fascist leader Stepan Bandera, whose forces

fought with the Nazis in the second world war and took

part in massacres of Jews."

Counterpunch also published a Jan. 29 article by Eric

Draitser, "Ukraine and the Rebirth of Fascism," which

began with the warning : "The violence on the streets of

Ukraine is far more than an expression of popular anger

against a government. Instead, it is merely the latest

example of the rise of the most insidious form of fascism

that Europe has seen since the fall of the Third Reich....

In an attempt to pry Ukraine out of the Russian sphere of

influence, the U.S.-EU-NATO alliance has, not for the

first time, allied itself with fascists."

By William F. Wertz

2 February 2014 (LPAC)—Russian Foreign Minister

Sergey Lavrov began his speech at the Munich Security

Conference today on the necessity of preventing a repeat

of the tragedy of world war. His remarks were made on

the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad. His ope-

ning remarks follow:

"It is impossible to overlook the symbolism of the date

of today’s meeting. 70 years ago one of the most diffi-

cult, bloody, and crucial battles of World War II the bat-

tle of Stalingrad was over. Hundreds of thousands of my

compatriots who gave their lives for this victory on the

banks of Volga were not only defending the Motherland,

but also fighting for the attainment of universal peace,

just as all our allies were doing.

"The diplomacy efforts were also aimed at the purpose

of not permitting the tragedy of world war to repeat.

They resulted in the creation of the United Nations Orga-

nization. However, soon afterwards the cold war drew

the dividing lines in Europe, putting off the opportunities

for building a system of collective security, which is em-

bodied in the UN Charter, for a long time.

"I speak of this not to provoke another search for the

guilty ones. Stirring up the past is not for credible politi-

cians. As the Russian president Vladimir Putin stressed

in December letter to the Federal Assembly, Russia is

only going ahead, only into the future. Thats why the

meaning of our participation in Munich conference we

see above all in trying to find a joint approach to buil-

ding a security community based on authentic strategic

partnership. That is the very aim that was put by the lea-

ders of Euro-Atlantic countries in 2010 at OSCE sum-

mits in Astana and Russia-NATO Council in Lisbon.

"Certainly, it would be a mistake to state that nothing is

done at all for achieving this noble aim. Russia and

U.S.A. concluded the START, many-sided cooperation

in combating terrorism, narcobusiness, piracy, threats

from Afghanistan, is developing. The rejection of cold

war era psychology is officially proclaimed. Russia and

NATO members declared that they are not seeing each

other as enemies.

"However, we are not here to shower praises and compli-

ments upon each other, but to understand the ways that

need to be coordinated for the successful solving of the

remaining problems. With this in view, we all have to

admit that not in word but in deed we are still nowhere

near the truly collective Euro-Atlantic architecture,

which would be based on solid international legal foun-

dation. Still present is a tendency of building relations on

military-political affairs in Europe not on the base of

principles proclaimed in OSCE and NRC, but by advan-

cing NATO-centric security structure as a single option.

"We consider such a narrow-bloc approach to be of no

avail and difficult to conceive with the help of objective,

rational considerations; it is hardly applicable to building

politics in today’s global world, when we share the

threats. It is time to take a broad and comprehensive look

at the whole complex of relations in Euro-Atlantics and

try to define the identity of approaches and the remaining

discrepancies between us, including with regard to

conflict situations in other parts of the world that influen-

ce our mutual security."

Lavrov Exposes EU Support for

Bloodshed in Ukraine and Syria

Moscow cannot see why prominent European politicians

choose to not denounce the seizure of administration buil-

dings in Ukraine and attacks on police officers, which

definitely does not have to do anything with "democracy,"

the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said when

addressing the Munich Security Conference this morning.

"Why is no one condemning those who seize administra-

tion buildings, attack policemen and chant racist and anti-

Semitic slogans? Why are prominent European politicians

actually encouraging the moves in question, although in

their own countries they immediately clamp down on any

encroachments on the letter of the law?" Lavrov said.

"How would the European Union react if the Russian go-

vernment openly supported street riots in London, Paris or

Hamburg, and sent its ministers to these cities to encoura-

ge the protesters?" he asked.

In addition, Lavrov pointed out that in Syria, while some

are trying to combat the terrorist organizations al-Nusra

Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)

through establishing a new association called the Islamic

Front, the groups comprising the Islamic Front are similar

to those terror groups. At least one was involved, with the

al-Nusra Front, in the Adra massacre in Syria, in which

dozens of Christians, Druze, and other minorities were

slain, he added. Militants migrate between the Islamic

Front, al-Nusra Front, the Islamic State of Iraq and the

Levant depending on who pays more, Russia therefore

has great doubts that the Islamic Front could serve as an

alternative to terrorists, Lavrov said.

These charges were among the most harshly worded pas-

sages in a speech which was otherwise rather reserved

and diplomatic, calling on the West to contribute to insti-

tutions with Russia, to work constructively with and not

against Russia—like the Geneva II meetings on Syria, or

the Russian proposal to create cooperation between the

Euro-Atlantic part of Europe and the Eurasian part, by

2020.

Another passage with a harsher tone was Lavrov’s res-

ponse to charges made earlier the same morning by NA-

TO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who ac-

cused Russia of having a destructive approach on missile

defense and NATO expansion ("partnership" program for

post-Soviet era). Lavrov said that being an integral part of

the U.S. strategic forces, the missile shield built up in

Eastern Europe is offensive, therefore one cannot expect

Russia to applaud it. It is worth special mention that La-

vrov urged the West, particularly the Europeans, to finally

learn the lesson from what caused the outbreak of two

world wars, and focus on cooperation rather on confronta-

tion instead.

The NATO ABM system encircling Russia (conjoined with the USA-led system around China) features the greatest threat now con-

fronting humanity. This was the core of the fight between NATO Sec. Gen Rasmussen and Lavrov

and American leaders, it is titled "Stop the Guerrillas’

Marauding, Halt the Incitement to Civil War, a Coup,

and the Disintegration of the Country!"

and Fascist Coup in Ukraine

Natalia Vitrenko features LaRouche’s Triple Curve collapse func-

tion during her bid for President in recent Ukrainian elections

Appeal from Ukrainian political parties and public orga-

nizations to the UN Secretary-General and the leaders-

hip of the EU and the USA

January 25, 2014

The political crisis in Ukraine is worsening by the day,

taking the country toward fratricidal civil war, the loss

of sovereignty, and the disintegration of the state. This is

a foreign project to seize Ukraine. It is being implemen-

ted against the interests and the demands of our people.

It is being carried out unconstitutionally and in violation

of international norms and principles, which are based

on peaceful action, free elections, freedom of speech,

and respect for human rights.

Since the international media reports deliberately distor-

ted information about Ukraine, stated by politicians and

officials in the EU and the USA, and this is used in sup-

port of the illegal actions of the guerrillas, we are obli-

ged to make the following Appeal.

1. The pretext for organizing the Euromaidan in Kiev

was the refusal of the Government and the President of

Ukraine to sign an Association Agreement with the EU.

We draw your attention to the content of this document,

for the sake of which the Parliamentary opposition led

people to the Maidan. The heart of the Agreement is the

complete loss of Ukraine’s sovereignty through the

transfer to supranational agencies (the Council of Asso-

ciation and the Committee on Trade) of decision-making

authority, placing them juridically above the Constitu-

tion and laws of Ukraine. It has been unconditionally

proven that this contradicts the Declaration on the Natio-

nal Sovereignty of Ukraine, the Constitution of Ukraine,

and decisions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine. It

also contradicts the expression of the will of the people

of Ukraine in the referenda of March 17 and December

1, 1991.

Implementation of the Association Agreement with the

EU would indisputably lead to the destruction of the

country’s economy, industry, agriculture, service sector,

and science.

Signing the Association Agreement with the EU would

lead to the total annihilation of state property, which is a

INCITEMENT TO CIVIL WAR, A COUP, AND THE

DISINTEGRATION OF THE COUNTRY!

22

competitor of oligarchs in the West.

The Association Agreement with the EU would eliminate

the national and state sovereignty of Ukraine. Its embed-

ded political convergence mechanism would liquidate

political sovereignty as well, drawing Ukraine into the

Joint Security and Defense Policy (JSDP). This anti-

Russian project provides for the expulsion of the Russian

Federation’s Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol and Crimea

as a whole, and draws Ukraine into the NATO military

bloc.

The aforementioned arguments confirm that the Agree-

ment on Association of Ukraine with the EU is a project

of the West for the takeover and colonization of Ukraine.

Its implementation has been assigned to the Parliamenta-

ry opposition: the Batkivshchyna (Fatherland), Udar

(Punch) of Klitschko, and Svoboda (Freedom) Parties.

2. We deem it necessary to draw your close attention to

the nature of the political forces that have organized the

Euromaidan and today are conducting combat actions

throughout the territory of Ukraine. The terrorists have

not only launched bloodletting with law enforcement

agencies, but are seizing government buildings, smashing

and burning the party offices of their political opponents,

and applying mob law against the citizens of Ukraine.

This unquestionably threatens the safety and life of citi-

zens, as well as their dignity and the inviolability of their

property.

You should understand that, in supporting the

actions of the guerrillas in Ukraine, by according

them the status of "Euromaidan activists" who

are taking part in so-called peaceful actions, you

yourselves are directly protecting, inciting, and

egging on Ukrainian neo-Nazis and neo-fascists.

None of these oppositionists (Yatsenyuk, Klits-

chko, and Tyahnybok) hide that they are conti-

nuing the ideology and the practices of the OUN

-UPA. They punctuate all of their speeches at the

Maidan with cries of "Glory to Ukraine — to the

Heroes Glory!" This Nazi greeting was adopted

by the Ukrainian nationalists in April 1941 (at

the Second Assembly of the OUN), and was co-

pied from the analogous slogans of Hitler’s Nazi

Party.

Other regular slogans of the Maidan are "Glory

to Ukraine — Death to the Enemies," "Ukraine

above All," "Ukraine for Ukrainians," "Stab the

Muscovites and Hang the Communists."

Wherever the Euromaidan people go in Ukraine, they

disseminate, besides the slogans mentioned above, neo-

Nazi, racist symbols such as the Wolf’s Cross — one of

the first emblems of Hitler’s NSDAP Party; the Celtic

Cross — one of the main neo-Nazi and racist symbols,

denoting the superiority of the white race; and the num-

bers 14 and 88. The 14 refers to fourteen words of the

American neo-Nazi David Lane, who was sentenced to

190 years in prison in the state of Indiana, USA, for racist

civil rights violations and racketeering; while 88 is an

encoded version of "Heil Hitler!" ("h" being the eighth

letter of the Latin alphabet). Right Sector, which coordi-

nates the guerrillas, uses the black-and-red flag in all its

actions. It is a symbol of the Nazi ideology of "Blood and

Soil," which in 1930 was consolidated as a certain sort of

national socialist doctrine, which the Hitlerites used to

justify their regime after coming to power in 1933.

Also confirming the neo-Nazi nature of the Euromaidan

is the constant use of portraits of the bloody executioners

of our people, Bandera and Shukhevich — agents of the

Abwehr under the nicknames "Gray" and "Taras Chuprin-

ka." On January 14 a portrait of Bandera was hung from

the Kiev City Hall [occupied by demonstrators], as a pro-

vocation. After a scandal ensued, it was removed to the

interior of the building. Also diabolical was the march by

Leader of the opposition groups, Natali Klitchko has already expressed his

dintention to bring Ukraine into NATO. Here, he poses with the NATO logo

23

Maidan participants with torches through the central

streets of Kiev on January 1, Bandera’s birthday.

Not only the Kiev Maidan, but also the maidans unfolding

in the regions of Ukraine are massively infected with Nazi

ideology, and they are using the practices of their prede-

cessors in their actions both against law enforcement

agencies and against Ukrainian civilians (including their

political opponents).

Washington and Brussels are either following the risky

course of ignoring the Nazi nature of the Euromaidan, or

they are consciously closing their eyes and covering up

the fascist ideology of the Parliamentary opposition and

the Euromaidan in Ukraine. It is appropriate to ask: "Have

the UN, the EU, and the USA ceased to recognize the

Charter and Verdict of the International War Crimes Tri-

bunal at Nuremberg, where the Hitlerite Nazis and their

henchmen were convicted? Have human rights ceased to

be a value for the countries of the EU and the world com-

munity? Is the Ukrainian nationalists’ devotion to Hitler

and his mass murders of civilians now considered demo-

cracy?"

3. The rights of those citizens of Ukraine who condemn

Nazism and neo-Nazism, espouse a different ideology,

defend the sovereignty of Ukraine, and categorically re-

ject the Association Agreement with the EU, while seeing

Ukraine’s integration into the Customs Union as a way

out of the crisis, are being trampled on! Representative

polling shows that over half the population advocates the

integration of Ukraine with Russia and 97 percent are

against Nazism. Do the EU and the UN think that the

rights of tens of millions of these Ukrainians should not

be defended? Do the EU and the UN consider it a stan-

dard of democracy, when the so-called self-defense units

of the Euromaidan, unconstitutionally and in violation of

the norms of international law, kidnap citizens, search

them, interrogate them, torture them, and take them off

for "sentences" to be carried out?

We insist on the inclusion of our representatives in the

negotiation process with the President of Ukraine and the

Parliamentary opposition, and we ask you to support this

demand. We also urgently request that you receive an

authorized delegation of the signatories hereof, in order to

obtain objective information about what is happening in

Ukraine.

We, as leaders of Ukrainian political parties and public

organizations, express our concern that politicians and

officials from the UN, the EU, the USA, and the interna-

tional community have a distorted perception of the

events being organized to bring about a coup d’etat in

Ukraine, and are not taking effective measures to stop this

fascist coup.

We call on the leadership of the UN, the EU, and the USA

to immediately condemn the actions of Ukrainian Nazi

organizations and, on their own part, to take the necessary

measures to prevent a fratricidal civil war in our country.

We are sending a copy of this Appeal to the leaders of the

member countries of the United Nations Security Council.

Natalia Vitrenko, Doctor of Economics, leader of the Pro-

gressive Socialist Party of Ukraine and the Eurasian Peo-

ple’s Union of Ukraine, delivered a warning on April

15th, 2013, of the clear and present danger represented by

the Neo-Nazi gangs in Ukraine. The presentation was

delivered at the post conference seminar, of the April

14th, 2013 Schiller institute conference in Frankfurt Ger-

many.

Dr. Vitrenko's Remarks April 15, 2013

During the two days of the conference and today, we have

looked very deeply into the crisis situation, as one of glo-

bal destruction. But we are not the only ones, we people

of reason, who are preparing for the crisis. I am convinced

that the strategists of the British Empire are also working

on their scenarios and preparing for this collapse. Helga

alluded to this in her remarks, referring to the threat of

fascism.

And the processes under way in Ukraine are not unique;

in Latvia, Hungary, Romania, and I’m sure in Greece and

Spain, the same thing is going on. The economy has been

destroyed, artificially. The oligarchical paradigm has been

established, with the drastic impoverishment of the popu-

lation. And then everything possible is done, to bring neo-

Nazis into the political arena. This is very clear in the

example of Ukraine. We had President Kravchuk, and

then President Kuchma.

They listened to the IMF, they conducted reforms, but

they continued to waver between Russia and the West.

The West then brought Yushchenko into play. Who was

he? His father was in “six different concentration camps”

during World War II. Well, that’s patent nonsense, becau-

se people did not survive even one concentration camp,

never mind six. At the end of the war, he went into the

American zone. I believe that from that point on, his fa-

ther was totally controlled.

Then, Yushchenko was assigned a State Department case

officer, who was to become his wife. Yushchenko became

President not by being elected, but under pressure: Javier

Solana came, others came in, and pressured the Court to

make the decision in favor of Yushchenko [in 2004]. In

the streets, at that time, we had the color revolution, paid

for by George Soros, Berezovsky, et al. Yushchenko be-

comes President. What is the first thing he does? He es-

sentially rehabilitates all the collaborationists. Monu-

ments begin to be built in Ukraine to Bandera, Sukhevich

– to these agents of the Abwehr. In western Ukraine the

Nazi movement takes to the streets.

We sound the alarm. We understand that this is even

against UN resolutions. But Yushchenko, Tymoshenko

and Yatsenyuk, the pro-NATO forces, are in power, and

they pursue this policy. In the West, they can see that the

south and the east of Ukraine are against such a scenario.

Then, Washington agrees for Yanukovych to become Pre-

sident. Yanukovych makes his first foreign trip to Brus-

sels, to NATO headquarters. Yanukovych allows the Na-

zis onto national TV. Within six months, the Nazi party

Svoboda wins the elections to the regional parliaments in

western Ukraine. At that point our movement came under

heavy pressure.

We were kept off the air. But the Nazi parties became

more powerful. In the 2009 Parliamentary elections, the

Nazi party Svoboda entered the Parliament and obtained

Parliamentary immunity, substantial state financing, and

guaranteed air time. They proceed to hold their covens

without any obstacles. They march through the streets

with torches and under slogans like “Ukraine over All!”

“Ukraine for Ukrainians!” “Glory to Ukraine, Death to

the Enemies!” “Stab the Muscovites, Slash the Russians,

Hang the Communists!” This a gross violation of the

Ukrainian Constitution, because it is incitement to ethnic

strife. Nobody does anything about it. Money pours in

from the West.

For the so-called struggle against corruption alone, NGOs

receive $400 million a year from Europe. They start bea-

ting up people demonstrating for other causes: anti-

fascists, Orthodox, etc. We had to set up our own self-

defense units to defend our rallies. Several times, already,

we have had to make citizens’ arrests of the neo-Nazi

Vitrenko Warned of Neo-Nazi Gangs in April 2013

26

thugs and take them to the police station. We would de-

mand that they be prosecuted for impeding our political

activity.

The police immediately let them go and they have orders

from above to do this; that “Europe” would be unhappy

with the violation of democracy in Ukraine, if they touch

these thugs. The government is doing nothing to stop

this. Nazi propaganda is spread openly. Books by

[Dmytro] Dontsov, the “Ukrainian Nietzsche,” are open-

ly sold in the Parliament building. Yushchenko, before

leaving office, issued a decree that only the nationalists

could be considered fighters for Ukraine’s independen-

ce. By the logic of this decree, the Red Army were oc-

cupiers. Russia was an occupying force. Only the colla-

borationists are upheld as having defended Ukraine’s

independence. I filed suit against this decree by Yush-

chenko. Yanukovych could have repealed the decree,

but he did not. I lost the case at the local level, the ap-

peals court, and the Ukrainian Supreme Court, and am

now preparing a complaint to the Supreme Court.

My father fought throughout the war, so how could he

be an occupier? There have already been films shown on

Ukrainian TV about how Ukrainians greeted Hitler with

joy, while Stalin was a demon, the Red Army were oc-

cupiers. Then there are talk shows around these films, in

which young people shout out, “Glory to Ukraine!” The

Nazis cultivate soccer fans. There have been several ca-

ses during soccer games, when at the 88th minute of the

game, a firecracker is set off. This is a code for “HH” or

“Heil Hitler!”

The International Soccer Association had to penalize the

Kiev Dynamo soccer club, forcing them to play a game

with no spectators. I wrote a letter of thanks to [ISA Pre-

sident] Michel Platini, for being the only one to raise his

voice against Nazism in Ukraine. The Ukrainian Nazis

have a headquarters office in Prague. They work directly

with those in Poland, the USA, and Great Britain. I un-

derstand very well that at any moment, passions could

explode in Ukraine and the streets will belong to the

Nazis. Yanukovych is a 100% puppet of the West. His

father was in the Polizei. And so it turns out that all the

people in power in Ukraine are those who hate Russia.

And the fact that our population is dying out, and the

fact that we are deprived of the ability to live together

with our blood brothers of Belarus and Russia, doesn’t

bother them at all.

They constantly go running to the U.S. Embassy. There-

fore, what happens in the world will happen, and it will

happen inclusively in Ukraine, as the formation of a Na-

zi state. And I think that a Nazi state in Ukraine is a dan-

ger for the whole world.

By an EIR Research Team

From the moment Bill Clinton en-

tered office as the 42nd President of

the United States, in January 1993,

a new stage of warfare between the

British Empire and the American

Republic began. Faced with the

financial implosion of its system,

the British Empire was determined

to expand its global looting, and

destroy any potential for the U.S.

Presidency to take the lead in

stymying that policy, by imple-

menting new global measures, best

captured in the "The New Bretton

Woods" program then being put

forward by Lyndon LaRouche [1].

That British policy demanded that

the Empire control the U.S. Presi-

dent, in driving a system of eco-

nomic genocide, and global con-

frontation against the resistance

expected from major powers Russia

and China, as well as others.

At the same time, LaRouche, hav-

ing been imprisoned by the Bush

crowd, was putting forward the con-

crete policies for organizing exactly such a new financial

architecture, through promoting new cooperative rela-

tionships among the U.S., Russia, and China—

relationships which would effectively serve as a basis

for leaps in economic development and the avoidance of

war. From the earliest days of his administration, Presi-

dent Clinton had indicated that

he was receptive to this point of

view.

This is the strategic backdrop to

the unending campaign of media

slanders, assassination attempts,

entrapment operations, and fi-

nally the impeachment of Clinton

in December 1998. At the culmi-

nation of the attempted coup—

run by British Intelligence and its

treasonous assets within the

United States, including the Re-

publican Party leadership and

British agents-of-influence such

as Vice President Al Gore—in

1998-99, a full-scale assault was

underway on economic and for-

eign policy, in which President

Clinton expressed his intention to

go with a revival of FDR-like

policies against the economic

and financial collapse, and with

close cooperation with Russia

and China.

During that 1998-99 period, La-

Rouche was actively intervening

to build support for his New Bretton Woods program,

promulgated in 1997-98.

It was to prevent that action that the British and their

agents played their "Lewinsky card," and bludgeoned

President Clinton into submission. One of the crucial,

intended results was the repeal of FDR's Glass-Steagall

act in November 1999, with the passage of what would

appropriately be called the

The British Coup vs. Clinton Brought U.S.

to Edge of Hell

[1] March 27, 1998 issue Executive Intelligence Review. Toward a New Bretton Woods by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

www.larouchepub.com/lar/1998/lar_nbw_031898.html

The EIR cover story of Feb. 6, 1998, warned

that “The British monarchy, in league with ele-

ments of a vast Anglophile apparatus inside the

United States, is running a high-risk, high-

stakes assault against President Bill Clinton

and, more broadly, the institution of the U.S.

Presidency, in the midst of the gravest financial

and monetary crisis of the twentieth century.”

On Dec. 9, the House Judiciary Committee

voted up a bill of impeachment against the

President.

28

Gramm-Leach-Bliley-Lewinsky bill. Other results in-

cluded the capitulation of the United States to the Tony

Blair policy of preventive war—a shift which began

with the lawless assault on Serbia in March 1999, and

today leads inexorably toward thermonuclear confronta-

tion with Russia.

In other words: One of the most proximate reasons why

the world today stands at the brink of thermonuclear

war, a meltdown of the trans-Atlantic financial system,

and an Obama dictatorship, is the relative success of the

British Empire's impeachment operation against Presi-

dent Bill Clinton. The very same players—including

notable Republican Party traitors to the United States—

are today continuing that operation, under conditions in

which the British literally control the Presidency of

Barack Obama.

To save the United States and the world from a war of

extinction today, the British Empire's assault on the

Presidency must be understood, and its lessons learned.

As LaRouche said in his March 24, 1994 introduction to

the mass pamphlet "Assault on the Presidency!", "the

global financial crash is now inevitable. It might happen

this week next, a year from now. It will happen, and

soon.... President Clinton must act according to the

precedent set by the first President of the United States,

George Washington, and the Secretary of the Treasury,

Alexander Hamilton.... We can not permit a pack of hys-

terical London freaks to destabilize our U.S. Presi-

dency...."

That Hamiltonian solution still exists—but the time for

realizing it is much, much shorter—perhaps as short as

the time it takes to launch thermonuclear Armageddon.

The British Buildup

The groundwork for the impeachment of Clinton was set

up even before he entered office. It included the activa-

tion of a wide network of right-wing, allegedly Republi-

can Party networks around the likes of Mellon family

scion Richard Mellon-Scaife, who got his start in media

operations in London in the early 1970s; he was then a

primary funder of the Bush operations in Iran-Contra in

the 1980s, and was a known enemy of LaRouche as

well. These networks were interfaced with British-

owned publishing outfits such as the Hollinger Corpora-

tion, theAmerican Spectator, and others. Joining them

were a host of unwashed televangelists dedicated to

whipping up fanatical opposition to Clinton's intention

to promote Middle East peace, and the pro-war Likud-

niks in Israel, with the U.S. supporters. Finally, there

was Clinton's own Vice President, Al Gore, himself a

longtime British asset and comrade of Blair's, buttressed

by other so-called Democrats who marched to the tune

of London and Wall Street.

In addition to the cast of British agents-of-influence,

there was one direct British intelligence agent on the

scene to drive the process: Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is a

second-generation MI6 operative (his father, E.E. Evans

-Pritchard, was a top British intelligence "academic,"

focused on Libya and North Africa), the younger Evans-

Pritchard was deployed to the United States as the

Washington bureau chief of theDaily Telegraph (then

owned by Canadian Conrad Black), where he launched

the media assault on the Clinton Presidency in Novem-

ber of 1993. Not only did Evans-Pritchard publish near

daily columns against Clinton, dredging up the Paula

Jones and other scandals, he was a direct MI6 liaison to

radical "militia" networks throughout the United States

who were waging their own campaign of threatened vio-

lence and vile slanders against the President. Evans-

Pritchard was a regular source for leaks from the Ken-

neth Starr Independent Counsel probe of Clinton, and

the starting point for a wave of publicity shopped from

London, into the mainstream U.S. press.

Evans-Pritchard was also a publicly avowed enemy of

LaRouche.

On April 6, 1994, Democratic Party consultant and com-

bative supporter of President Clinton, James Carville,

effectively exposed the game. He invited the Washing-

ton, D.C. press corps to a breakfast where he presented a

"Media Food Chain" chart (later dubbed by the White

House as the "Communications Stream of Conspiracy

Commerce"), in which he documented that every single

"Clinton scandal" story that had appeared in the Ameri-

can press and media, had first appeared in the British

press.

As EIR's Debra Freeman reported his presentation in

1998:

"First, the story would be published, usually in its most

scurrilous and vicious form, in the British press. Then, a

29

week or two later, the story

would come out in the Washing-

ton Times, or the American Spec-

tator, or on the editorial page of

the Wall Street Journal. Finally,

the story's last stop would be

under the by-line of some so-

called investigative reporter, in

the pages of the New York Times,

the Washington Post, the Los

Angeles Times, or some other

'authoritative' outlet."

(Carville's documentation later

was picked up by Hillary Clin-

ton, who, in an interview with

NBC's Matt Lauer in January

1998, dubbed the apparatus that

went after her husband a "vast

right-wing conspiracy.")

On the afternoon of April 6,

1994, there was another press

event, this one hosted by La-

Rouche's Presidential exploratory

committee, the Committee To

Reverse the Accelerating Global

Economic and Strategic Crisis.

At that event, LaRouche spokes-

men presented the 64-page dos-

sier "Assault on the Presidency," which documented that

it was British Intelligence that was behind the creation

of the "Whitewater" scandal against President Clinton,

as a means of preventing him from taking U.S. policy

off the Thatcher-Bush track, and acting in the George

Washington/Alexander Hamilton tradition to save the

United States and world economy from the inevitable

impending crash.

The press conference began with a review of how the

attacks on the U.S. Presidency, the recent Hebron mas-

sacre to derail the Mideast peace talks, and the destabili-

zation of Mexico, were all part of a British attempt to

maintain the empire's oligarchical control in a time of

financial collapse. Spokesmen stressed how important it

was for the British, now without an independent power

base, to maintain the "special relationship" with the

United States, to keep themselves in power, and how

this was threatened by certain independent tendencies

shown by the Clinton Administra-

tion.

EIR Counterintelligence Editor

Jeffrey Steinberg then reviewed

the workings of the British media

operation which—left, right, and

center—launched the scandals

against Clinton, emphasizing the

role of the Hollinger Corporation.

He detailed the history of Hollin-

ger from its origins in the British

intelligence front, War Supplies

Ltd., and traced its tentacles into

the United States, through media

outlets run by Iran-Contra financi-

ers such as Richard Mellon-Scaife,

and then into the so-called main-

stream press.

As EIR later elaborated in a March

1998 video, this conspiracy could

not honestly be called "right-

wing." Rather, it was a full-blown

mobilization of British assets,

from Wall Street bankers, to Con-

federate sympathizers, to the Bush

wing of the Republican Party, and

the treasonous wing of the Liberal

Establishment, epitomized by the Washington Post.

The scurrilous lies retailed in the press helped to build a

climate of hate against the President, which led to a

flurry of assassination attempts and threats, as well as

the legal actions that ultimately led to the appointment

of Republican Party operative Kenneth Starr as Inde-

pendent Counsel, and Clinton's impeachment.

The Lewinsky Affair

Among the set-up operations to "get" Clinton was the

planting of Monica Lewinsky in the White House.

In July 1995, Lewinsky, a sexual predator who had a

track record of stalking older men in positions of author-

ity, was brought in as an unpaid intern on the staff of

White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta. President

Clinton was already, at the time, a target of a Republican

Party assault, Starr having been appointed Independent

In March 1994, LaRouche’s Committee To Re-

verse the Accelerating Global Economic and

Strategic Crisis issued the mass pamphlet,

“Assault on the Presidency,” in which LaRouche

wrote, “The global financial crash is now inevita-

ble. . . . President Clinton must act according to

the precedent set by the first President of the

United States, George Washington, and the Sec-

retary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton. . . .

We can not permit a pack of hysterical London

freaks to destabilize our U.S. Presidency. . . .”

30

Counsel on "Whitewatergate" in August 1994. Lewinsky

got into the White House position through family con-

nections. Her mother, Marcia Lewis, was engaged to

wealthy New York City media mogul R. Peter Strauss, a

top Democratic Party donor who served as director of

Voice of America under President Jimmy Carter. A New

York real estate executive close to Strauss and Lewis,

Walter Kaye, called the White House to secure the post

for Lewinsky. At the end of the internship, Lewinsky was

hired to a paid position in the White House Office of

Legislative Affairs.

Lewinsky's profile as a sexual predator became so obvi-

ous, that in April 1996, she was transferred out of the

White House to a post at the Pentagon's Public Affairs

office, explicitly based on her stalking of President Clin-

ton. It was at the Pentagon that she was picked up by

Linda Tripp, a crony of the "Get Clinton" networks, who

passed word of Lewinsky's account of her "affair" with

the President to Independent Counsel Starr.

In reality, Clinton was entrapped, on the basis of his

known weakness. Although Lewinsky's contact with

Clinton occurred during 1995 and 1996, it was only at

the crucial moment when Clinton was making a major

policy shift around the accelerating global financial cri-

sis, two years later, that the plug was pulled—specifically

in August-September 1998, when Clinton had denounced

the $1.5 trillion-a-day market in short-term currency

speculation, and vowed to change the system. He estab-

lished an international commission to study ways to re-

form the global financial system, in sync with La-

Rouche's campaign at the time for just such an overhaul.

To prevent him from implementing a return to American

System methods, Clinton was targeted for removal from

office by a concert of Wall Street bankers, Likud fanat-

ics, right-wing Republicans, and two top Democrats,

Vice President Al Gore and Sen. Joe Lieberman. Had

Clinton gone forward with the New Bretton Woods ini-

tiative, there would never have been a repeal of Glass-

Steagall, which was only possible under the conditions of

the concerted right-wing Republican/Wall Street assault

on the Clinton Presidency.

As it happened, the efforts by Wall Street, the Likud, the

right wing, and treasonous Democrats like Gore and Lie-

berman—all British assets—failed to bring down the

Clinton Presidency. The initiative launched by Helga

Zepp-LaRouche in September 1998, with the Committee

To Save the Presidency, beat back those forces, but

enough damage was done that we are still paying the

strategic consequences.

The Showdown of 1998-99

The "Asia crisis" launched by British financier George

Soros in the Summer of 1997, with a speculative attack

on Thailand, Malaysia, and other Asian nations, proved

to be (as LaRouche insisted at the time) a global crisis of

the system as a whole. When, in August 1998, the Rus-

sian financial system under British puppet Boris Yeltsin

exploded, in part because the just-created Russian bond

market had been flooded with hot money fleeing Asia,

the U.S. hedge fund Long-Term Credit Management

(LTCM) was thrown into default, with $4 billion in

losses on Russian GKO bond-related derivatives, nearly

busting the entire world financial system.

This action coincided with the point at which Clinton

was compelled to testify before a Federal grand jury, that

same August.

British Intelligence agent Ambrose Evans-Pritchard orches-

trated a media assault on the Clinton Presidency beginning in

November 1993. Evans-Pritchard was a source for leaks from

Kenneth Starr’s pornographic charges against Clinton, and an

avowed enemy of Lyndon LaRouche. Evans-Pritchard is shown

here at the news conference at which LaRouche’s “Assault on

the Presidency” dossier was released, April 6, 1994.

31

Here are some key inflection points in that process,

showing the interrelationship among the crisis, Clinton's

response, and the British mobilization to stop him.

1998

March: LaRouche's EIR releases a 55-minute video on

the "Assault on the Presidency," in which LaRouche

urges Clinton not to be pushed into war against Iraq, and

to follow his advice on how to resolve the world eco-

nomic crisis.

March 18: LaRouche at a Washington,

D.C. EIR seminar elaborates on his policy for a New

Bretton Woods reorganization of the world economy,

based on national sovereignty, bankruptcy reorganiza-

tion, and major development projects.

June: President Clinton visits China, for a summit meet-

ing with President Jiang Zemin, with the aim of improv-

ing relations, despite an enormous outcry from Republi-

can critics.

August: Clinton is hauled before a grand jury to testify

on the Lewinsky affair.

Sept. 2: Clinton makes state visit to Russia, despite huge

opposition.

Sept. 9: In the face of the gathering momentum, includ-

ing by a faction of the Democratic Party, demanding that

President Clinton resign, Helga Zepp-LaRouche founds

"Americans To Save the Presidency," with the support

of dozens of state legislators and others around the coun-

try, and begins to organize nationwide.

Sept. 10: Yevgeni Primakov is appointed Prime Minis-

ter of Russia after a failed attempt by British and other

international interests to reinstate Victor Chernomyrdin

as prime minister (one of the executors of London-

directed genocide against Russia in the mid-1990s), and

put Russia under the direct dictates of London-selected

finance specialists Boris Fyodorov and Domingo

Cavalho. Primakov appoints an economic policy team

that is committed to reviving Russia's collapsed physical

economy, paying back wages, and renegotiating the

country's foreign debt, while creating a Russia-China-

India alliance, and conducting crucial war-avoidance

diplomacy with Clinton.

Sept. 14: President Clinton, at the Council on Foreign

Relations and related meetings later that week, calls for

reform of the world financial system in keeping with

FDR's policies to "limit swings in the economy," noting

that one-third of the world was living in economies un-

dergoing collapse. The CFR event is the first public ap-

pearance by Clinton since he was dragged before the

"Starr Chamber" (under Special Prosecutor Kenneth

Starr) grand jury in August on the Lewinsky affair.

Sept. 27-29: Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan

visits the U.S., where cooperation on the financial crisis

is discussed.

Sept. 21: Under the aegis of House Speaker Newt Gin-

grich, the House Judiciary Committee turns the Con-

gress into a pornographic witchhunt against Clinton,

releasing the tapes of the grand jury testimony.

Sept. 23: LTCM collapses over its Russia-related losses.

August and September: Al Gore holds a series of

meetings on Wall Street with

Edgar Bronfman,

Hank Greenberg (AIG),

Jon Corzine (Goldman Sachs),

Steven Ratner (Lazard),

D.E. Shaw, and others,

promising to use his influence with the Russian fi-

nancial mafia to assure full payment of the GKO

bonds, and planning joint attacks on Russia over

anti-semitism charges from the Anti-Defamation

League and Bronfman's World Jewish Congress.

Sept. 24: LaRouche issues a statement attacking

Blair for his advocacy of a phony New Bretton Woods,

in fact, a supranational world dictatorship.

Sept. 27: LaRouche issues a statement on world eco-

nomic reorganization, entitled "What Nations Must Do."

Sept. 29: Clinton announces, together with Treasury

Secretary Robert Rubin, that "a new era in U.S.-China

relations" will be launched, after several private meet-

ings with Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan, spe-

cifically to collaborate on the global financial crisis.

Oct. 1: LaRouche issues a document entitled "People

First!" outlining concrete measures for dealing with the

world financial emergency.

November: Clinton cancels his scheduled attendance at

the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meet-

ing in Malaysia, where he had been expected to pursue

his cooperation with China and the Association of

Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in dealing with the

global financial crisis. Gore goes in his place, and utters

a diatribe against Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir's

stand against the speculators and the IMF, and backing

British agent Anwar Ibrahim's anarchist demonstrations

going on in the street outside the meeting.

Nov. 13: Blair ups his push for more armed action

against Iraq, for alleged violations of sanctions.

Nov. 21: British establish new closer defense pact with

Israel, now in the hands of warhawk Benjamin

Netanyahu.

Nov. 23: New York Times author James Risen reports

that Gore, who had co-chaired the Gore-Chernomyrdin

Commission (U.S.-Russian Joint Commission on Eco-

nomic and Technological Cooperation) since 1993, "did

not want to hear allegations that Mr. Chernomyrdin was

corrupt, and was not interested in ... intelligence reports

on the matter." Risen writes that one secret CIA report

that went to Gore, containing what was considered

"conclusive evidence" of Chernomyrdin's personal cor-

ruption, was returned to the agency with a "barnyard

epithet scrawled across its cover."

Dec. 9: After two months of widely publicized debate,

the House Judiciary Committee votes up a bill of im-

peachment with four articles, based on the Lewinsky and

Paula Jones affairs.

Dec. 16: U.S. and British planes bomb Iraq, allegedly

for failure to comply with weapons inspectors.

Dec. 19: President Clinton is impeached by the House of

Representatives on a nearly party-line vote.

1999

Jan. 1: LaRouche issues statement "To Defeat Impeach-

ment, Defeat the New Confederacy," to mobilize patriots

against the impending impeachment trial in the Senate.

Feb. 12: Clinton is acquitted by the Senate, with only

Republicans (but not all Republicans) voting for convic-

meeting with President Clinton, as well as emergency

efforts to avert the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia.

March 11-15: Chernomyrdin and Russian moneybags

Boris Berezovsky visit Washington, and meet with Gore

and others in D.C., and on Wall Street.

A climate of assassination threats and attempts was created by

the media witchhunt against the President. Larry Nichols, a

former aide to Hillary Clinton, is shown brandishing a hand-

gun at a May 11, 1994 rally in Boulder, Colo. Nichols vowed to

have a showdown with Bill Clinton at “high noon” and threat-

ened, “One of us is getting out of town.”

33

March 22: Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu gets Pri-

makov to postpone his U.S. visit by a day, meeting first

with him in the Kremlin on March 22.

March 23: While on the plane to Washington, Primakov

receives a call from Gore saying that the U.S. will not

postpone the planned bombing raids against Yugoslavia.

Primakov ordered the plane turned around in mid-flight

and returned to Moscow. EIR's information is that the

decision on the bombing was made by the so-called

Principals Committee, against the will of President Clin-

ton.

April 4-14: Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji pays an official

visit to the U.S. at the invitation of Clinton, the first visit

to the U.S. by a Chinese Premier in 15 years.

April 23: British imperial leader Tony Blair gives a

speech in Chicago calling for the end of the Westphalian

system of national sovereignty, and launching the cam-

paign of military intervention for "humanitarian" pur-

poses, so-called preventive war.

May: Russian President Yeltsin fires Primakov, after

Berezovsky and Chernomyrdin visit Primakov to tell

The British Goal: Depopulation

Behind London's War Drive: A Policy To Kill Billions

The Empire: In Their Own Words

36

By Nancy Spannaus, Editor of Executive

Intelligence Review

At the conclusion of World War II, all people of con-

science were horrified to learn of the full extent of the

genocide which had been carried out by German dictator

Adolf Hitler. While tens of millions were killed by all

manner of means—from the war, to euthanasia, to death

camps, and the like—Hitler's attempt to wipe out the Jew-

ish population by killing 6 million Jews, became an em-

blem for his more general extermination policy. "Never

Again," was the cry. "Never again" will we allow system-

atic mass murder to be carried out in order to exterminate

populations.

Yet today, it is not 6 million, but 6 billion members of the

human race who are threatened with deliberate mass mur-

der. And it is an unresolved question as to whether patri-

ots of the nations which can stop this extermination, will

act to prevent it, in time.

Adolf Hitler was not representative of the

German nation, of course, any more than

cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer is representative of

Americans, or Jack the Ripper of the Eng-

lish. Hitler was a puppet of ruling circles in

Great Britain, who created the genocidal

ideology he embraced, and deployed the

funds and other resources to bring him to

power. And while Hitler was defeated by a

coalition largely dependent upon Franklin

D. Roosevelt's United States, those evil

British circles, centered on the monarchy,

did not die with him.

So today, as the British Empire again finds

itself threatened with disintegration and

bankruptcy, we find it steering another pup-

pet: this time the President of the United

States. Yes, Barack Obama is also a bought-

and-paid for lunatic, like Hitler, and the

Emperor Nero before him, who has been charged by the

British Empire with the mission of implementing the poli-

cies that will lead to world depopulation, this time on al-

most-unfathomable scale.

In a statement issued today, Lyndon LaRouche again laid

the issue on the line:

"If Barack Obama is not thrown out of office soon, civili-

zation is in mortal danger," LaRouche said. "The British

monarchy is out to destroy the United States as we know

it, and Obama is its puppet instrument for accomplishing

exactly that. The overall objective of this London-

centered oligarchy is to reduce the world's present popula-

tion from the current official level of 7 billion to fewer

than 1 billion.

"That is the issue that can no longer be dodged, if man-

kind is to survive the coming weeks and months.

Behind London's War Drive:

A Policy To Kill Billions

The strategic perspective which must be understood if the financial collapse will not

drive us towards an extinction war with Russia and China is that the Anglo Dutch

oligarchy intends to reduce the world’s population from 7 to one billion souls, and

Obama is their key weapon. Pictured above, Obama greets her highness in 2009

37

The present drive for World War III, beginning with the

targeting of Iran and Syria, is driven by the British com-

mitment to wipe out more than 80% of the human race,

just as Prince Philip has demanded on numerous public

occasions. Those who try to deny this reality are endan-

gering mankind by their failure to face the truth."

In the pages that follow, I draw on the more than 40-year

history of LaRouche and his movement's war against the

evil genocidalists centered in the British monarchy, to

make it, once again, perfectly clear what the intent of

this enemy of the human race is. The British are not the

first empire to seek global depopulation; indeed such a

policy is characteristic of imperial oligarchies going

back as far as history is known. But, as today's incarna-

tion of the Roman Empire, the British royal family rules

over a global financial imperium which now demands

the culling of the human race, by the killing of up to 6

billion people.

If you think that's irrational, you're right. But face real-

ity: It is just such genocidal irrationality that Prince

Philip, Queen Elizabeth, and President Barack Obama

represent. And if you don't act to stop them, you are as

good as dead.”

I. The British Objective: Depopulation

Start with the most outspoken proponent of the British

genocide policy, Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF)

president emeritus, His Royal Highness Prince Philip.

The sadistic Philip, who founded the WWF in 1961, in

collaboration with his dear Nazi friend Prince Bernhard

of the Netherlands, has no qualms about stating his ob-

jective for reducing the human population. He considers

people to be just another kind of animal, which must be

controlled in order to maintain the kind of world order

over which the oligarchy wishes to exert unchallenged

rule.

"In the event I am reborn, I would like to return as a

deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve

overpopulation," Philip told Deutsche Presse Agentur,

during a trip to Germany in August 1988. In fact, Philip

already behaves as a virus, spreading the people-hating

and de-industrializing ideology which lies at the heart of

the so-called environmentalist movement that has been

taking over the world since President John F. Kennedy's

death. With the resources and power of the British mon-

archy at his disposal, he has done a hideously effective

job.

Key to the poison which the WWF and representatives

like Philip spread, is the insidious and anti-scientific

idea of a limited "carrying capacity" for supporting the

human population, in alleged parallel to such a carrying

capacity for animal species. Ignoring the millennia-long

history of human progress, Philip and his passel of aco-

lytes who pollute universities, governments, and civic

institutions internationally, assert that man must

"compete" with "other animals" and nature for the re-

sources to survive, and that even advances in technol-

ogy—such as advances in agricultural productivity—

only postpone the "inevitable" barrier to expansion.

Representative is the following statement by the Prince:

"You cannot keep a bigger flock of sheep than you are

capable of feeding. In other words conservation may

involve culling in order to keep a balance between the

relative numbers in each species within any particular

habitat. I realize this is a very touchy subject, but the

fact remains that mankind is part of the living world....

Every new acre brought into cultivation means another

acre denied to wild species."

Bunk, murderous bunk.

“Conservation may involve culling in order to keep a balance

between the relative numbers in each species within any particu-

lar habitat. I realize this is a very touchy subject, but the fact

remains that mankind is part of the living world. . . .”

-Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

Optimum Population Trust

While the WWF itself has generally tried to keep a dis-

tance from outright calls for killing off populations—

although its policies against high-technology development

result in precisely that conclusion—it has spawned other

organizations to do the job. Most prominent among them

are the Optimum Population Trust (OPT) and the Global

Footprint Network (GFN). Both of these institutions spe-

cialize in coming up with estimates of how

many billion people must be eliminated, in order to "save

the environment."

The OPT, which works closely with the WWF and other

related organizations, has "population reduction" as its

main objective. Its outlook is well reflected by one of its

main patrons, the genocidal maniac Paul Ehrlich, who

kicked off a massive population control movement in the

United States in 1968 with his book The Population

Bomb. Ehrlich, who is still active, won a gold medal from

the WWF in 1987, and established the Zero Population

Growth organization in the U.S. As of 1994, he was call-

ing for a reduction of human population from 6 billion to

1.5-2 billion.

"A cancer is an uncontrolled multiplication of cells; the

population explosion is an uncontrolled multiplication of

people," Ehrlich wrote inThe Population Bomb. "We must

shift our efforts from the treatment of the symptoms to the

cutting out of the cancer. The operation will demand many

apparently brutal and heartless decisions."

Under this "philosophy," the OPT—which calls itself a

"charity," has declared that Great Britain has to cut its

population in half, and that, as of 2009, the world popula-

tion has to be cut by two-thirds. In a July 2007 report ti-

tled "Youthquake," OPT compared the births of human

beings to the devastation of earthquakes, and suggested

the need for compulsory birth control. They asked:

"Might humanity have to suffer the kind of death-dictated

control to achieve stabilisation, or reduction by a popula-

tion crash—a mass cull through violence, diseases, star-

vation or natural disasters—which biology dictates for all

other species when their numbers exceed the limits of

their environment's carrying capacity?" (emphasis added)

In a March 2009 press release, entitled "Earth Heading for

5 Billion Overpopulation?" the OPT estimated the world's

sustainable population at 5 billion—but didn't stop at that.

It projected that the addition of more people would mean

that by 2050, "when the UN projects world population

will be 9.1 billion, there will be an estimated 5 billion

more people than the Earth can support."

So, now the aim is to eliminate 5 billion people. You

might consider that mass murder, but the UN Population

Fund does not. It featured the OPT's director, Roger Mar-

tin, as a presenter of its own "State of World Population

2009" report in the run-up to the Copenhagen Climate

Change Conference.

Global Footprint Network

Working with the OPT and the WWF is the Global Foot-

print Network, which, in cooperation with the Zoological

Society of London, has taken up the job of setting up a

Living Planet index, which determines how many people

should live (and die) in every country. According to a re-

port the GFN released on the occasion of the 2009 UN

Copenhagen Summit, three-quarters of all nations on

Earth are using up more resources than they claim the

"Earth's biocapacity" can sustain. They demanded imme-

diate action by governments and international agencies to

reduce population, starting with at least a third (2 billion).

How to do that? First, cut living standards, and "reward"

nations for reducing population. More repulsive methods,

such as war and disease, are left unstated.

But we have not yet come to the most extreme aim, that of

calling for a reduction of human population to below 1

billion. The prize for that goes to John Schellnhuber, head

of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Research, who was

made a Commander of the Most Excellent Order (CBE) of

the British Empire in 2004, by Queen Elizabeth.

Hans Joachim Schellnhuber

39

Schellnhuber—who is a longtime collaborator of Presi-

dent Obama's Science and Technology Advisor, John P.

Holdren—told a March 13, 2009 pre-meeting of the Co-

penhagen Climate Change Conference that his studies

had calculated "estimates for the carrying capacity of the

planet, namely below 1 billion people," if his policy of

eliminating all modern energy sources (fossils fuels and

nuclear) were not implemented. In fact, the world popu-

lation would be reduced to that level—eliminating 6 bil-

lion people—through the implementation of that insane

policy.

'Natural' Genocide

On March 10 of this year, Prince Philip chaired a meet-

ing of the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts

(RSA), of which he is president. There, he cheered on

one of the most anti-human presentations known to this

author, by the knighted "naturalist" Sir David Attenbor-

ough.

Attenborough, who was receiving an RSA prize, pro-

ceeded to give a speech which was rallying cry against

the "one element" he claimed was behind all the

"disasters that continue increasingly to afflict the natural

world," "the unprecedented increase in the number of

human beings on this planet." Malthus was right, Atten-

borough said, but people are afraid today to talk about

curbing population. This is "tragic," he said.

Philip virtually beamed as Attenborough spoke. In the

question-and-answer period, he took the occasion to brag

a bit about how he was the one who recruited Prince

Bernhard to be the first president of the WWF, and how

he insisted, against opposition, that the point of

"conservation" was not to please people, but for the ani-

mals' sake.

He could have added, for the sake of the human animals

who make up the British Royal family.

II. Dirty Bertie Russell Lives

As LaRouche elaborated in his book-length feature in the

Fall 1994 Fidelio magazine, "How Bertrand Russell Be-

came an Evil Man," (1) the evil that is the British Empire

came into its own in 1688, when William of Orange in-

vaded the island, and started the process that led to Brit-

ain becoming the "new Venice." By the latter part of the

18th Century, the radical imperialist ideology of depopu-

lation fanatic Thomas Malthus, free-trader Adam Smith,

and liberal imperialist Jeremy Bentham had been put into

place.

The Malthusian doctrine, imported whole cloth from the

Venetian Gianmaria Ortes, took aim specifically at the

recently established United States, which was expanding

its population by leaps and bounds. Malthus wrote "An

Essay on the Principle of Population" in 1798, wherein

he declared that population growth had to outgrow the

increase in the means of subsistence. Thus, punitive

measures had to be taken to discourage population

growth. No welfare, no support should go to poor chil-

dren—they should be left to die (as in California and

other U.S. states today).

Malthus was blunt:

"All children who are born, beyond what

would be required to keep up the population

to a desired level, must necessarily perish,

unless room be made for them by the death

of grown persons.... Therefore ... we should

facilitate, instead of foolishly and vainly en-

deavoring to impede, the operations of na-

ture in producing this mortality; and if we

dread this too frequent visitation of the

Partners in genocide. Prince Philip and David Attenborough share a laugh

Horrid form of famine, we should sedulously encourage

the other forms of destruction, which we compel nature

to use.

"Instead of recommending cleanliness to the poor, we

should encourage contrary habits. In our towns we

should make the streets narrower, crowd more people

into the houses, and court the return of the plague. In the

country, we should build our villages near stagnant

pools, and particularly encourage settlement in all

marshy and unwholesome situations. But above all we

should reprobate specific remedies for ravaging dis-

eases; and restrain those benevolent, but much mistaken

men, who have thought they are doing a service to man-

kind by protecting schemes for the total extirpation of

particular disorders."

Malthus, a demented parson, eventually was hired as a

professor at Haileybury College, for the British East In-

dia Company, and his drivel became establishment

"thought." But it was not until the end of the 19th Cen-

tury that the Malthusian outlook was popularized for the

world at large by those arch-imperialists Bertrand Russell

and H.G. Wells, whose evil went so far that they would

not even shrink from the detonation of nuclear war.

Depopulation, by Any Means Necessary

Lord Bertrand Russell came by his degeneracy hereditar-

ily, from a Brutish noble

family in the late 19th

Century. His sometime

sidekick H.G. Wells had

no such pedigree, but suc-

ceeded in attracting the

attention of oligarchical

circles with his bestial

novels, and entering into

the milieu of the imperial-

ist elite, in particular, the

Huxley family.

The LaRouche move-

ment's book, The New

Dark Ages Conspiracy of

1978 provides the gory

details on the outlook and

activities of this crew,

whose bestiality of out-

look—against the "lesser races," the "unfit," industrial

progress, and the American outlook in general—knows

virtually no bounds. But it is in Russell and Wells that we

see the most naked statement of intent for maintaining

the global rule by the oligarchy by any means necessary,

including nuclear war.

First, just to briefly establish Russell's strictly Malthu-

sian, people-hating outlook, I quote two documents. In

his 1923 Prospects of Industrial Civilization, he writes:

"Socialism, especially international socialism, is only

possible as a stable system if the population is stationary

or nearly so. A slow increase might be coped with by

improvements in agricultural methods, but a rapid in-

crease must in the end reduce the whole population to

penury ... the white population of the world will soon

cease to increase. The Asiatic races will be longer, and

the negroes still longer, before their birth rate falls suffi-

ciently to make their numbers stable without help of war

and pestilence.... Until that happens, the benefits aimed

at by socialism can only be partially realized, and the

less prolific races will have to defend themselves against

the more prolific by methods which are disgusting even if

they are necessary."

Even more shameless was Russell's discussion of popula-

tion in his 1951 The Impact of Science on Society:

“All children who are born, be-

yond what would be required

to keep up the population to a

desired level, must necessarily

perish, unless room be made

for them by the death of grown

persons. . . . Therefore . . . we

should facilitate, instead of

foolishly and vainly endeavor-

ing to impede, the operations

of nature in producing this

mortality. . . .”

-Rev. Thomas Malthus

41

"But bad times, you may say, are exceptional, and can

be dealt with by exceptional methods. This has been

more or less true during the honeymoon period of indus-

trialism, but it will not remain true unless the increase of

population can be enormously diminished. At present the

population of the world is increasing at about 58,000

per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on

this increase, which continued through each of the world

wars.... War ... has hitherto been disappointing in this

respect ... but perhaps bacteriological war may prove

more effective. If a Black Death could spread through-

out the world once in every generation, survivors could

procreate freely without making the world too full.... The

state of affairs might be somewhat unpleasant, but what

of it? Really high-minded people are indifferent to hap-

piness, especially other people's."

You think it would be impossible for an elite to actually

call for the mass destruction of human beings, in order

to make Lebensraum for their desires? Indeed, Russell

does not leave any doubt. And he becomes even more

explicit about the potential "nuclear option" in the post-

war period, when, in the Bulletin of Atomic Sciences and

public radio interviews, he explicitly called for a

"preventive war" with nuclear weapons against Soviet

Russia, in order to enforce a world government. While

he claimed that the proposal was intended as blackmail,

to force the Russians into submission, he did not hesitate

to add,

"Of course you can't threaten unless you're prepared to

have your bluff called."

Yes, this is the same Bertrand Russell who has been ac-

claimed as the "pacifist" leader of the Ban the Bomb

movement. Yet then, as now, there was no excuse for

people not being horrified at the evil in Russell's oligar-

chical policy.

Indeed, a whole grouping of what were popularly por-

trayed as "mad scientists," such as Dr. Leo Szilard, took

up the Russell vision as a mission, developing scenarios

for "controlled" wars through nuclear exchanges. What

would guarantee such wars remained "contained?" Ab-

solutely nothing.

While operating more in the "cultural" field, novelist

H.G. Wells was equally disgusting and vile in his pro-

motion of bestialization, his attack on industrial pro-

gress, and his promotion of civilization-destroying war

as a tool of the oligarchy's determination to eliminate

nation-states, and hold on to world power. This "vision"

is elaborated most clearly in his The Shape of Things to

Come, which was both a movie, and a seemingly endless

academic book, in which the international oligarchy

carries out a decades-long war of annihilation which

bombs civilization back into the Stone Age, in order to

then establish a globalized society based on eugenic, anti

-human "science," which rules by allegedly benevolent

dictatorship of the peoples of the Earth, whose numbers

would be regulated with precision.

'People Are Cancer'

Don't delude yourself that such perverts are Russell and

Wells are restricted to British elite circles. Through in-

fection of all areas of American society, in the wake of

the British assassination of Abraham Lincoln, especially

the world of academia, this British Malthusian outlook

has polluted a huge section of the intellectual elite in the

United States itself. Indeed, that was and is the British

oligarchical plan: to destroy the major threat to their

world domination, the republic of the United States of

America.

Lord Bertrand Russell

42

In the wake of another British assassination of an

American President, this time John F. Kennedy, the

stage was set for an explosion of anti-human propaganda

which insisted, like Russell and Malthus, that scientific

progress itself led to more and healthier people, and

therefore would push the world to become "too full."

Working in tandem with the explicitly British-run pro-

genocide institutions, such as the World Wildlife Fund, a

whole set of depopulation institutions and policymakers

went into action in the United States.

I will highlight only a few. Start with Paul R. Ehrlich of

"people are cancer" fame, whom we cited above. He

produced his The Population Bomb in 1968, which be-

came a "best-seller" in the milieu of the rampaging

counterculture. Ehrlich forecast immediate mass death

from the shortage of food, and, when asked what must

be done, said, "We must rapidly bring the world popula-

tion under control, reducing the growth rate to zero or

making it negative. Conscious regulation of human num-

bers must be achieved. Simultaneously, we must, at least

temporarily, greatly increase our food production."

Among Ehrlich's proposals was forced sterilization, per-

haps by putting sterilizants in the water supply. Obama's

current "science" advisor Holdren is notorious for hav-

ing studied with Ehrlich, and collaborated with him in

coming up with such hideous, and totally unscientific

proposals.

Ehrlich was not simply speaking for himself, of course.

He had the political support of the Malthusian lobby in

the U.S., which had promoted these very genocidal poli-

cies before Hitler did, but had to tone them down in the

course of the war. The Popu-

lation Crisis Committee, the

Rockefeller Brothers Fund,

and many others were work-

ing behind the scenes to rein-

troduce their eugenicist vi-

sion—now "revised" to be a

means of "saving the envi-

ronment," and improving the

"quality of life" for fewer,

and fewer, and fewer people.

Simultaneous with Ehrlich,

came a huge international

boost for the anti-population

campaign, with the publication of Limits to Growth,

which projected "inevitable" mass death if action was

not taken to control population. In fact, as MIT-based

authors Dennis Meadows and Donna Forester later ad-

mitted, their projections were a fraud, in that they were

based on no improvements in existing technologies. But

the book served the purpose of popularizing the zero-

growth idea, and creating the climate in which the Club

of Rome was established in 1972.

There was nothing American about the Club of Rome.

Its founders, Britian's Alexander King and Italy's

Aurelio Peccei, both veterans of NATO intelligence,

were aggressive proponents of reducing population (on

the order of 2 billion below what was projected as year-

2000 levels), squelching industry, and eliminating the

sovereign nation-state. They claimed that "limited re-

sources" meant that population had to be contained, and

that "blind human proliferation is the basic factor" in the

major world's problems.

For explicitness, it's hard to beat this Club of Rome

statement from its 1991 The First Global Revoltuion: "In

searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with

the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming,

water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill....

But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into the

trap of mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dan-

gers are caused by human intervention and it is only

through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be

overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

"American" academics did pick up on these ideas, in

spades. Take Garrett James Hardin, an ecologist turned

“We must rapidly

bring the world popu-

lation under control,

reducing the growth

rate to zero or mak-

ing it negative. Con-

scious regulation of

human numbers

must be achieved.”

-Paul Ehrlich

43

propagandist for cutting population, who

came up with the famous "lifeboat" image for

human survival. In the midst of the 1974

Ethiopian famine, Hardin came forward, in

true Malthusian fashion, to say that providing

food aid to the starving was ill-advised, be-

cause we just had too many people; to sur-

vive, we had to throw the

weaker overboard.

State Department consultant

and academic William Pad-

dock prescribed a similar ap-

proach with Mexico's crisis of

the mid-1970s. In an interview

with EIR in 1975, he said:

"The Mexican population

must be reduced by half. Seal

the border and watch them

scream." When asked how the

population reduction would be

accomplished, Paddock said, "By the usual means: fam-

ine, war, and pestilence."

War on Population

It may appear that the flamboyant calls for genocide,

such as those of Paddock and Hardin, have been

drummed out of public policymaking. Wrong. They

have just become a part of the quiet institutional appara-

tuses which the British financial empire uses to maintain

control, such as the World Bank, the IMF, and even the

U.S. Department of State.

Take the case of the late Robert Strange McNamara,

noted for his "body-count" approach as Defense Secre-

tary to Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, and his empha-

sis on population control during his presidency at the

World Bank. The following quote conveys his mentality,

in that it starts with the objective of holding down popu-

lation.

"There are only two possible ways in which a world of

10 billion people can be averted. Either the current birth

rates must come down more quickly. Or the current

death rates must go up.

"There is no other way.

"There are, of course, many

ways in which the death rates

can go up. In a themonuclear

age, war can accomplish it very

quickly and decisively. Famine

and disease are nature's ancient

checks on population growth,

and neither one has disappeared from the scene...."

The implications of such a mentality governing the

World Bank (not to mention other UN institutions such

as the UN Fund for Population Activities) are vast, of

course. Enter the famous "conditionalities" for popula-

tion control, in order to meet the alleged "carrying ca-

pacities" of various nations. Among the means used,

forced sterilization is known to be one; can one rule out

intentional wars?

Certainly not. During British agent Henry Kissinger's

tenure as National Security Advisor, he oversaw the

drafting of National Security Study Memorandum 200, a

policy statement making population reduction in the

developing sector nations, especially those with raw ma-

terials the United States had determined it needed, U.S.

policy. This document, which has never been repealed,

was not declassified until 1989 but its message is chill-

ing. Discussing the objective of maintaining a reliable

flow of raw materials into the U.S., the relevant section

of NSSM 200 reads:

"Concessions to foreign countries are likely to be expro-

priated or subjected to arbitrary intervention. Whether

through government action, labor conflicts, sabotage, of

civil disturbance, the smooth flow of needed materials

will be jeopardized. Although population pressure is not

Either the current birth rates must come down

more quickly. Or the current death rates must

go up. . . . In a themonuclear age, war can ac-

complish it very quickly and decisively. Famine

and disease are nature’s ancient checks on

population growth, and neither one has disap-

peared from the scene.

-Robert S. McNamara

44

the only factor involved, these types of frustrations are

much less likely under conditions of slow or zero popula-

tion growth. Consequently, reduction of population in

these states is a matter of vital U.S. national secu-

rity." (emphasis added)

Subsequent memoranda, not to mention the actions, of

the Kissinger era in foreign policy shaping make it clear

that this was not merely an academic statement, but that

the United States deliberately intervened to promote

"population wars" to reduce such "pressures." The Iran-

Iraq War was one of which he famously bragged. George

H.W. Bush's Gulf War was identified by Lyndon La-

Rouche at the time as another. Then, of course, there is

Africa, which the Malthusians constantly complain has

the highest birth rate in the world—and, by aid of ma-

nipulation and impoverishment from British and other

intelligence services and financial institutions, remains in

a condition of almost constant fraticidal and genocidal

warfare. Obama has jumped in to participate in this pol-

icy with all four feet.

Green Genocide

The British Empire's depopulation policy has one other

major weapon: the "Green" movement. As I will elabo-

rate in more detail in the next section of this report, denial

of the fruits of scientific and technological progress may

be a slow way to eliminate population, but it is an ex-

tremely reliable one. And under conditions of extreme

weather conditions, to which our planet is being subjected

due to galactic forces, it may also become an "efficient"

means of wiping out large sections of mankind—as Rus-

sell and Wells might say.

Most relevant to our story here is the Green policy toward

nuclear energy. There is no question but that the survival,

and progress, of our human family of 7 billion people

today, absolutely requires a massive expansion of nuclear

power, combined with a crash program for reaching igni-

tion for nuclear fusion plants and moving on to matter-

anti-matter reactrs. Denial of electric power to a popula-

tion is murder—and that's what the Greens intend to do.

Formally, of course, the Obama Administration and the

British government do not eschew nuclear power. The

British are even contemplating a significant expansion of

their nuclear power capacity, although Obama has not.

But both governments, in contrast to China and Russia, in

particular, are carrying out crippling budget cuts against

the science required to expand and maintain nuclear

power—including against the space program—virtually

guaranteeing that there will be no skilled manpower

available to maintain nuclear capacity. And, both govern-

ments have carried out a foreign policy toward nations

aspiring to develop civilian nuclear energy, which reeks

of the Malthusian agenda of denying this life-saving ca-

pability to poorer nations.

As Lyndon and Helga LaRouche have documented in-

depth, today's "green" is the new "brown"—brown as in

fascist suppression of technologies required for a human

standard of living, and prospect for development. That

Obama would appoint John Holdren, who was not only

notorious for his work with genocidalist Paul Ehrlich, but

also for his work with Bertrand Russell's world govern-

ment Pugwash organization, as his Science and Technol-

ogy Advisor, simply further establishes his credentials as

a puppet of the British Malthusian oligarchy.

III. LaRouche Dared Call It Genocide

LaRouche's breakthroughs in economic science, starting

in the late 1940s/early 1950s, gave him a unique insight

into the genocidal nature of the British oligarchy's

"economics." Through denial of the specifically creative

powers of the human mind, LaRouche understood, the

British-school economists were ultimately committed to

an outlook of zero growth, and collapse of civilization.

The result, as in the case of previous empires, most nota-

bly the Roman Empire, would be genocide and depopula-

tion, because the very nature of mankind and the universe

Henry Kissinger’s NSSM 200 depopulation program became na-

tional policy under Jimmy Carter. Here, Nixon shares a podium

with Kissinger, who served as his controller

45

in which we live requires constant qualitative progress, at

constantly higher level of energy flux density, and idea

density as well.

LaRouche took on the Russellites early on, in the form of

anti-human systems analysis freaks like Norbert Wiener.

Once he had established a political association, in the late

1960s, he directed that organization to go after the British

Malthusian zero-growth movement, just as it was being

launched en masse in 1968-172. Most importantly, La-

Rouche and his movement also presented the antidote to

war and genocide—a program for scientific progress

based on the highest ideals of the nation state. While the

subject is vast, I shall touch some of the highlights.

One of the LaRouche movement's early pamphlets on the

issue, put out in 1972, asserted that the anti-science move-

ment was nothing but a "Blueprint for Extinction." By

contrast, LaRouche advocated the crash development of

nuclear power, and in 1974, participated in the founding

of the Fusion Energy Foundation.

Also in 1974, Helga Zepp, leader of the newly established

LaRouche movement in Europe, carried out a highly pub-

lic intervention at the UN's decennial Population Confer-

ence in Bucharest, Romania, confronting leading depopu-

lator John D. Rockefeller III as pushing genocide on the

Third World as a "Rockefeller baby." At that point, the

LaRouche movement became the international counter-

pole to the British Malthusian movement, a status which

was further confirmed in 1982, when then Helga Zepp-

LaRouche established the Club of Life, to counter the

Club of Rome.

In his famous election-eve television appearance in 1976,

U.S. Labor Party candidate LaRouche dramatically ex-

posed the genocidal intent behind the Carter election cam-

paign, controlled as it was by Rockefeller's Trilateral

Commission and associated oligarchical institutions. La-

Rouche went after key Carter advisor George Ball, who,

in his Diplomacy for a Crowded World, had called for

triage against Mexico, including the reduction of the

Mexican population from 58 million to 28 million. This is

a war policy, LaRouche said—and Carter must be stopped

to prevent World War III.

Lyndon and Helga LaRouche have led the fight against the imperial genocidalists for more than four decades, and are hated

by the oligarchy for that reason.

46

Carter's election represented a chilling victory for the

British Malthusians, and the newly elected President im-

mediately pressed for both nuclear confrontation with the

Soviets, and a takedown of the advanced technology ba-

sis for industrial progress. LaRouche responded in 1977

with the initiation of his Beam Weapon Defense pro-

gram, which eventually became known as President

Reagan's SDI. The concept represented not only a means

of war avoidance, by making nuclear missiles obsolete—

directly countering the Bertrand Russell approach—but

also a scientific revolution into a new plateau of eco-

nomic development for the planet as a whole, all based

on collaboration between the leading nuclear powers of

the time, the United States and the Soviet Union.

In 1978, LaRouche commissioned The New Dark Ages

Conspiracy, whose purpose, as he put it in his "How Ber-

trand Russell Became an Evil Man," was to show the

horrifying things that had happened in the 20th Century,

which would not have happened without Russell's role.

The exposé was more than timely, as the Carter Admini-

stration moved to consolidate a depopulation agenda, by

producing such government policy documents as the

"Global 2000 Report," which, like the Club of Rome's

"Limits to Growth," mandated ultimately genocidal

"conservation" and anti-technology measures.

Throughout the 1980s, the LaRouche movement contin-

ued the battle against the de-

populators, and the green geno-

cide movement, even as the Brit-

ish Malthusians consolidated

their intellectual grip over the

political and institutional policy

apparatuses in the United States

and internationally. That consoli-

dation was independent of politi-

cal party, as exemplified by the

formation of a Futures caucus in

the U.S. Congress in 1988,

which included both Newt Gin-

grich and Al Gore.

The fall of the Berlin Wall, and

the collapse of the Soviet Union,

represented a significant turning

point for the British Malthusians,

who, up to that point, had had to

maintain some commitment to

high technology in the face of potential Soviet competi-

tion. Now, finally, they thought they had a free path to

the one-world, deindustrialized, depopulated dictatorship

which Bertrand Russell had envisioned nearly 100 years

before.

To carry that out, however, they would have to destroy

the FDR/American System tradition in the United States,

as well as crush any other potentially challenging nation-

state, especially Russia and China. Over the course of

three Bush terms in the Presidency, and three years of

Barack Obama, they have made significant progress in

destroying the United States—but, on the international

front, there is significant resistance.

Which brings us to the current decisive crisis point. The

British Empire is bankrupt, but determined to rule the

planet, and they have a puppet as President of the United

States whom they intend to use to that end. The U.S.,

along with British assets Israel and Saudi Arabia, are

already moving toward accomplishing the British oligar-

chy's goal, by pursuing a confrontation with Syria and

Iran which would lead directly into thermonuclear con-

frontation with Russia and China. Knowledgeable mem-

bers of Obama's Administration, as well as public evi-

dence, confirm that the President is in an uncontrolled

Nero state-of-mind, determined to impose his will on any

one who gets in his way. No one can assert that Obama

would not carry out the ultimate

"irrationality," by detonating

thermonuclear war.

There are many people, survi-

vors of the war and the Holo-

caust, who said to themselves

after World War II, that they

wished they had moved to stop

Hitler while they still had a

chance. There will be very few,

if any, survivors around to

mourn that lost opportunity in

stopping Barack Obama, if he

goes ahead with the British

monarchy's planned war against

Russia and China. There is no

sane alternative, but to remove

Obama from office now.

47

The oligarchic principle of intentional genocide shines

through clearly in these citations from leading spokesmen

for the British Empire, spanning over 200 years. It is only by

identifying the true ideological strain that is at the heart of

both “right wing” monetarist, and “left wing” ecological

thinking in the modern world that true humanists may both

understand and recognize the solution to our many sided

crises now pressing upon our future.

1791, Parson Thomas Malthus, hired pen of the British

East India Company’s Haileybury College, wrote in his An

Essay on Population in 1799: “We should facilitate, instead

of foolishly and vainly endeavoring to impede, the opera-

tions of nature in producing this mortality; and if we dread

the too frequent visitation of the horrid form of famine, we

should sedulously encourage the other forms of destruction,

which we compel nature to use. In our towns we should

make the streets narrower, crowd more people into the

houses, and court the return of the plague.”

More from Malthus’ An Essay on the Principle of Popula-

tion:

“We are bound in justice and honour formally to disdain the

right of the poor to support.”

“To this end, I should propose a regulation to be made, de-

claring that no child born from any marriage taking place

after the expiration of a year from the date of the law, and

no illegitimate child born two years from the same date,

should ever be entitled to parish assistance.

“The infant is, comparatively speaking, of little value to

society, as others will immediately supply its place.”

Lord Bertrand Russell writing in his 1951 The Impact of

Science on Society: “War has hitherto been disappointing

in this respect [in accomplishing population reduction], but

perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black

Death could spread throughout the world once in every gen-

eration, survivors could procreate freely without making the

world too full.”

Paul R. Ehrlich, the mentor of Obama’s current Science

Czar John Holdren wrote in his famous The Population

Bomb in 1968: “A cancer is an uncontrolled multiplication

of cells; the population explosion is an uncontrolled multi-

plication of people. . . . We must shift our efforts from the

treatment of the symptoms to the cutting out of the cancer.

The operation will demand many apparently brutal and

heartless decisions.”

1988, Prince Philip of Edinburgh in a 1988 inter-

view Deutsche Press Agentur said: “The more people there

are, the more resources they’ll consume, the more pollution

they’ll create, the more fighting they will do. We have no

option. If it isn’t controlled voluntarily, it will be controlled

involuntarily by an increase in disease, starvation and war.

...In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return

as a deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve

overpopulation.”

1991, The Club of Rome: Founded officially in 1972 out of

the fraudulent “Limits to Growth” study, the Club of Rome

is patronized by the monarchies of The Netherlands, Spain,

and Belgium, to this present day. It’s 1972 report was spon-

sored by its then patron Pierre Elliot Trudeau using Cana-

dian Tax payer funds during the Club’s 1971 Conference in

Montebello, Quebec. From the Club’s 1991 book The First

Global Revolution, we can read its co-founder Alexander

King state: “In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we

came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global

warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the

bill. . . . But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into

the trap of mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers

are caused by human intervention and it is only through

changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome.

The real enemy, then, is humanity itself.”

April 2012, Paul Ehrlich, fellow of the British Royal Soci-

ety, upon the release of the Society report, “People and the

Planet,” issued this comment to the London Guardian on the

need to reduce population: “How many you support depends

on lifestyles. We came up with 1.5 to 2 billion because you

can have big active cities and wilderness. If you want a bat-

tery chicken world where everyone has minimum space and

food and everyone is kept just about alive you might be able

to support in the long term about 4 or 5 billion people. But

you already have 7 billion. So we have to humanely and as

rapidly as possible move to population shrinkage.” “The

question is: can you go over the top without a disaster, like

The Empire… In Their

Own Words

48

worldwide plague or a nuclear war between India and

Pakistan? If we go on at the pace as we are, there’s going

to be various forms of disaster. Some maybe slow motion

disasters like people getting more and more hungry, or

catastrophic disasters because the more people you have

the greater the chance of some weird virus transferring

from animal to human populations, there could be a vast

die-off.”

Ehrlich’s protégé John Holdren, who has led in the shut-

down of NASA`s manned space systems and fusion pro-

gram as Obama`s science Czar went further when he wrote

on p.942 in his 1977 book Ecoscience:

“Perhaps those agencies, combined with UNEP and the

United Nations population agencies, might eventually be

developed into a Planetary Regime- sort of an interna-

tional superagency for population, resources, and envi-

ronment. Such a comprehensive Planetary Regime could

control the development, administration, conservation,

and distribution of all natural resources, renewable or nonrenewable, at least insofar as international implica-

tions exist. Thus the Regime could have the power to con-

trol pollution not only in the atmosphere and oceans, but

also in such freshwater bodies as rivers and lakes that

cross international boundaries or that discharge into the

oceans. The Regime might also be a logical central

agency for regulating all international trade, perhaps in-

cluding assistance from DCs to LDCs, and including all

food on the international market.

The Planetary Regime might be given responsibility for

determining the optimum population for the world and

for each region and for arbitrating various countries'

shares within their regional limits. Control of population

size might remain the responsibility of each government,

but the Regime would have some power to enforce the

agreed limits.”

Sir Julian Huxley speaking at the Galton Lecture in 1936

said: “The lowest strata... allegedly less well endowed ge-

netically... must not have too easy access to relief or hospi-

tal treatment lest the removal of the last check on natural

selection should make it too easy for children to be pro-

duced or to survive...”

Huxley continued this message in his 1946 UNESCO: Its

Purpose and its Philosophy: “Thus, even though it is quite

true that any radical eugenics policy of controlled human

breeding will be for many years politically and psychologi-

cally impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see

that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest

care...”

Huxley founded the United Nations Education, Science and

Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1946, revamping all

global educational systems after WWII which was instru-

mental in brainwashing the western baby boomer popula-tion. Huxley then co-founded the World Wildlife Fund

(WWF) with Prince Philip and Prince Bernhard in 1961

while simultaneously serving as head of the Eugenics Soci-

ety of Britain! Prince Bernhard founded the Bilderberg

Group in 1954 as the instrument to advance the eugenics/

world government agenda.

Prince Bernhard and Philip’s powerful lackey Maurice

Strong let the cat out of the bag in a 1990 interview:

“What if a small group of world leaders were to conclude

that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions

of the rich countries? And if the world is to survive, those

rich countries would have to sign an agreement reducing

their impact on the environment. Will they do it? The

group's conclusion is 'no'. The rich countries won't do it.

They won't change. So, in order to save the planet, the

group decides: Isn't the only hope for the planet that the

industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsi-bility to bring that about?” [1]

on Climate Change, and chairman of the 1972 UN Confer-

ence on the Human Environment, and 1992 Rio Confer-

ence. Strong was also the architect of Canada’s foreign

policy towards Africa with his 1968 founding of the Cana-

dian International Development Agency. Strong also served

as early member of the Club of Rome and Vice-President

of the WWF under its then-President Prince Philip.

Lord Lothian : “If they are slow in learning we shall be

condemned to a period . . . of strained relations between the various parts of the English-speaking world. We must

share in the burden of world government is just as great

and glorious a responsibility as participation in the war”

(Lothian to Lionel Curtis, Oct. 15, 1918, in Butler, Lord

Lothian, pp. 68-70).[2]

Hitler knew he was speaking to a member of the inner cir-

cle of the Empire when he suggested to Lothian, on Jan. 29,

1935 that, “Germany, England, France, Italy, America and

Scandinavia... should arrive at some agreement whereby

they would prevent their nationals from assisting in the industrializing of countries such as China, and India. It is

countries of Asia of manufacturing industries”.-Transcribed

by Nancy Spannaus

Oct. 22—By no later than May 15, 2009, Lyndon La-

Rouche had identified the Obama health-care "reform"

as a potentially impeachable crime against the U.S. Dec-

laration of Independence and Constitution. In a short

memo, he wrote:

"The substantive issue is not only the substance of Presi-

dent Obama's offense against the right to life, but the

added odiousness of such conduct as his declared inten-

tion on account of both the identity of pursuit of that ac-

tion to Adolf Hitler's odious 1939 law, and the extensive

proceedings conducted by the United States and other

powers on precisely this account.

"Neither the U.S. Congress, President Barack Obama,

nor a simple act of legislation can undo a principle of

both the U.S. Declaration of Independence and U.S.

Constitution."

A month later, after President Obama went on national

television to insist on rapid passage of his bill to slash

"futile" health expenses for the old and the sick, La-

Rouche went further:

"President Obama is now impeachable, because he has,

in effect, proposed legislation which is an exact copy of

the legislation for which the Hitler regime was con-

demned in the post-World War II trials. It is an impeach-

able offense to propose such a thing in this time. With

this statement from him, the President now deserves im-

peachment."

That was over three years ago—and not only was the bill

passed, but its murderous provisions have begun to be

implemented, with effects we have documented in part

below. This President has carried out other impeachable

crimes in violation of the U.S Constitution, the most sali-

ent being the war against Libya without Congressional

authorization, and the assassination of American citi-

zens, without due process of law. Yet, despite all the

screams of outrage, from all sides of the political spec-

trum, Barack Obama remains in office—and is clearly

determined to carry out the Hitler genocide program em-

bodied in his signature bill, the Affordable Care Act

("Obamacare"), if it takes a full dictatorship to do so.

Indeed, LaRouche's EIR fully detailed the Hitlerian na-

ture of this bill in testimony provided to Congress

in June of 2009. They knew, or should have known.

It's the System That's at Stake

It is clear that the only way to derail this genocide plan is

to remove the President from power, through Constitu-

tional means, such as impeachment, or the "Nixon

route." The American people, in a rage against the as-

sault on their living standards and future, are increas-

ingly in support of that proposal. This rage will increase

as Obama links up with Wall Street-controlled Republi-

cans to demand cuts in Social Security.

But if the substance of Obama's genocide policy is going

to be stopped, what LaRouche called the "root of the

matter" has to be addressed. For Obama is only a tool of

the financial forces, centered in the Anglo-Dutch empire

and Wall street, which have declared their intent to re-

duce the world's population dramatically. If those forces

remain in control, disaster will still be guaranteed.

As LaRouche put it in his Oct. 18 webcast:

"What the root is, is that the Queen of England, in her

policy and the policy of her Dutch allies or partners, has

actually decreed a campaign of genocide whose stated

intention is to reduce the population of the planet Earth

from 7 billion persons to less than 1. This program is

now ongoing. Not only is this the ongoing program, but

this is precisely the program doctored by Queen Eliza-

beth and adopted from the beginning of his Presidency

by this character Obama.

To Reject Queen's Genocide,

Impeach Obama Now

51

"So Obama is actually an instrument of genocide placed

in government with the aid of a lot of drug money from

the British to back his career, especially near the Texas

border and so forth. And this bum has been committed to

that policy of genocide specified internationally by the

Queen of England and her Dutch accomplices.

"This program is now fully in effect, and has been in ef-

fect since actually the beginning of the George W. Bush

Administration. That has been the policy. It has also been

implicitly the policy of the Bush family since Pres-

cott Bush, who was the guy who bailed Hitler out,

and made Hitler the dictator of Europe essentially.

It was done by the same group. So both of these

factors—the Bush family from Prescott Bush,

George H.W. Bush, and little Bush, and Obama—

are all samples of this problem. So what we're

dealing with is, we're dealing with an international,

effectively global campaign, which has already

virtually taken out the nations of continental

Europe, which are virtually in the process of dis-

appearing under a program which amounts already

to genocide.

"What this means for the United States is that

keeping Obama in the Presidency is condoning

genocide. He should be thrown out of office now,

under the proper procedure; get him out of there so

at that point we can save a lot of human lives."

Glass-Steagall Too!

To permanently eliminate the power of the British

financial empire, and its Wall Street extension—

epitomized by such thieves as JPMorgan Chase's

Jamie Dimon—requires more than removing

Obama. Thesystem which controls him, as it did

the Bush presidencies, must be destroyed. For that

system puts the world not only on a course toward de-

population and death, but a thermonuclear confrontation

between the U.S., and Russia and China, which virtually

no human beings will survive.

The destruction of that system starts with cutting off the

predator banks by implementing Glass-Steagall, and then

moving to reassert a system of sovereign government

credit creation, focused around great projects led by space

exploration.

LaRouche gave the marching orders to American patriots

in his Oct. 21 discussion with the LaRouche PAC Policy

Committee.

"Throw Obama out now! He's utterly impeachable. Get

him out of office! And let us go ahead with Glass-

Steagall, and by using Glass-Steagall as a vehicle not only

for economy, but for international policy, we can save this

planet from that kind of horror, and that's what we have to

do."

On Nov. 2, 2012, economist and Lyndon LaRouche PAC

founder Lyndon LaRouche held an election-eve press

conference at the National Press Club, where he

and EIR Counterintelligence editor Jeffrey Steinberg pre-

sented the incontrovertible evidence that President

Barack Obama's behavior concerning the terrorist attack

on the Benghazi, Libya consulate on Sept. 11, 2012 rep-

resented an impeachable offense.

They further made the point that, if the President were

permitted to continue on this course of action, he would,

on behalf of his British controllers, lead the United

States, and the world, into World War III.

Since that press conference, Lyndon LaRouche PAC has

uncovered extensive documentation of the President's

impeachable, even treasonous behavior, including his

alliance with, and cover-up for, known enemies of the

United States, including the Saudi-funded terrorist net-

work which carried out both 9/11-One, in 2001, and 9/11

-Two, in Benghazi. These have been detailed in Lyndon

LaRouche PAC fact sheets, the latest of which was is-

sued this week; they have gotten wide circulation on

Capitol Hill.

Now, finally, it appears the Congress is preparing to act.

The hearings scheduled to occur May 8, by the House

Oversight and Government Reform Committee, represent

the potential for exposing the White House's coverup for

jihadi terrorists who are still being protected by the

Obama Administration. What will be critical is whether

Congress focuses not just on the lies and coverup by the

Administration, but on the nature of the illegal arms-

smuggling operation that was being run from Benghazi to

the Syrian rebels.

It should also be clear that the continued coverup for

these terrorists, whom the Obama Administration is sup-

porting in Syria, is not only aiding and abetting avowed

enemies of the United States, but also leading the world

directly toward that World War III confrontation of

which LaRouche warned.

In other words, the failure to remove Obama from office

for his treasonous alliance with these enemies of the

United States, could lead to the extinction of the nation.

Impeachable Offenses

Obama's impeachable offenses, as defined by the Consti-

tutional standard of "treason, bribery, or other high

crimes and misdemeanors," are by no means limited to

the Benghazi atrocity.

Lyndon LaRouche PAC first identified the leading ele-

ments of Obama's impeachable offenses in January 2010,

focussing on the President's adoption of a genocidal

health-care plan, which was, and is, dedicated to carrying

out mass murder against the population of the United

States, and his economic proposals, such as the destruc-

tion of NASA, that would destroy the economic basis for

survival of the nation.

In April 2011, former Assistant Deputy Attorney General

under President Reagan, Bruce Fein, issued a draft bill of

impeachment which charged the President with usurping

the exclusive prerogative of Congress to commence war,

under Article 1, Section 8, Clause 11 of the Constitution,

specifically in the case of the President's war against

Libya.

On Oct. 29, 2011, Constitutional law Professor Francis

Boyle offered to draft bills of impeachment against Presi-

dent Obama on the same basis as Fein, as well as for the

President's violation of the Constitutional right to due

process, by killing at least three American citizens, with-

out due process of law.

Impeachment Closes In

on President Barack Obama

53

Since that time, evidence has arisen of even more of-

fenses, and, most importantly, of other ways in which

Obama has "acted in a manner contrary to his trust as

President and subversive of constitutional government to

the great prejudice of the cause of law and justice and to

the manifest injury of the people of the United States."

That, by the way, was the standard used in the articles of

impeachment filed against President Richard Nixon,

which led him to resign, rather than be convicted.

Itemization

A draft outline of Obama's impeachable offenses, in addi-

tion to the treasonous alliance with British-Saudi terrorists

which is being exposed in the Benghazi case, follows.

Counts 1 and 3 are prima facie, and require no further

investigation to make the case. The only question is

whether a sufficient number of Congressmen have the

guts to act to defend the Constitution, in the face of the

President's obvious offenses.

Count 1: Violation of Article I, Section 8, the

Constitutional provision that Congress has the unique

responsibility to declare war, through his pre-emptive

war against Libya without Congressional approval.

Count 2: Prosecution of aggressive war in pur-

suit of regime change in Libya, an action explicitly

condemned as a war crime by the post-World War II

Nuremberg Tribunal, and in treaties signed by the

United States.

Count 3: Violation of the Fifth Amendment to

the U.S. Constitution, the "due process clause,"

through his murder of American citizens, including

Anwar Al-Awlaki, his 16-year-old son, and Samir

Khan.

Count 4: Violation of the Fourth Amendment to

the U.S. Constitution, the "right of the people to be

secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects,

against unreasonable searches and seizures," through

the expansion of the Bush/Cheney program of war-

rantless interception of electronic communications of

millions of Americans.

Count 5: Conspiracy to commit Crimes against

Humanity, through the crafting and promotion of a

health-care "reform" which he, and his co-

conspirators, "knew or should have known" would

lead to the "inadequate provision of surgical and

medical services," or worse, to large sections of the

population, and lead to an increase in the death rate

among those considered having lives "not worthy to

be lived."

Count 6: Conspiracy to violate the separation of

powers provision of the U.S. Constitution, Title I,

Sections 7 and 8, through pre-emption of Congress's

powers on behalf of imposing fascist austerity pro-

grams, and the express intent to continue that policy.

Count 7: Conspiracy to commit the United

States to an international genocide policy, through

embracing a Green genocide, depopulation agenda,

which includes the destruction of the high-technology

capabilities of the United States, especially NASA.

Count 8: Conspiracy to destroy the sovereignty

of the United States, through acting to cede U.S. sov-

ereign powers to institutions loyal to the British Em-

pire, and supranational institutions such as the Inter-

national Monetary Fund.

With my signature, I agree that my name may eventually be made public.

The following Appeal for a Global Glass-Steagall was

issued June 17, 2012, for urgent action across the Trans-

Atlantic region.

1. All nations of the Trans-Atlantic region must enact a

law which would separate commercial banks from invest-

ment/speculative banking entities, based upon Franklin D.

Roosevelt’s Glass-Steagall bill of June 16th, 1933. Up

until the beginning of the 1980’s, the principles of Roose-

velt’s reform were in place in most nations, in the form of

strict regulation, and ensured that the banking sector

mainly took on the character of commercial banks, and

access to private accounts for risky speculative operations

was impossible.

As things stood before Glass-Steagall was dismantled in

1999 through the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, commercial

banks must once again be completely separated from both

investment banks and the insurance sector.

2. Commercial banks must be put under government pro-

tection, whilst the investment banks put their books in

order without any help from taxpayers’ money, which in

practice means that toxic paper must be written off in the

trillions, even if this leads to the insolvency of the banks

themselves.

3. A National Banking system in the tradition of Alexan-

der Hamilton, within the framework of a new Credit Sys-

tem, must provide long-term credit with low interest rates

for productive investments, which would in turn increase

the productivity of the economy by promoting an increase

in energy-flux density, and in scientific and technological

progress.

4. The reconstruction of the real economy should be fa-

cilitated through long-term treaties of cooperation be-

tween sovereign nation-states, which would launch well-

defined infrastructure and development projects in the

context of the Mediterranean and North-american plan for

an Economic Miracle, seen as a necessary extension of

the Eurasian Land-Bridge. These contracts represent a de

facto new credit system, a New Bretton Woods system, in

the tradition of Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The purpose of re-enacting Glass-Steagall and implement-

ing a Credit System is by no means only an improvement

of technical details in banking, but rather, how the econ-

omy can ensure the survival of humanity over a period

spanning many generations into the future, whilst increas-

ing the productive powers from one generation to another.

Human beings must once again be at the center, and the

very purpose, of economics.

We, the undersigned, direct our urgent appeal to govern-

ments and parliaments, that they fulfill their constitutional

duty and protect the general welfare of the populations

they represent, by immediately enacting Glass-Steagall

banking separation into law.

Steagall Now

The construction of the northern components of NAWAPA

XXI in Alaska and Canada opens up development pro-

grams with massive international implications, linking the

United States with East Asia in the creation of a high-

technology, fusion- and fission-powered backbone for a

new world economy.

A major geopolitical shift towards the Pacific is already

underway, with a strong pro-growth orientation in Asia,

centered on pro-development factions in China, Russia,

South Korea, and Japan. This directionality stands in stark

contrast with the stagnation and collapse of the trans-

Atlantic sector. In line with this Pacific orientation, Arctic

development is increasingly becoming an area of focus,

with major untapped resource deposits lying in wait, while

the melting of Arctic ice is opening up northern shipping

routes.

The development of the nuclear-thermonuclear NAWAPA

XXI system links the United States, Canada, and Mexico

into this Pacific-Arctic perspective. However, the critical

factor must be continually underscored: The success of the

effort fully depends upon the highest levels of technology

and energy-flux density achievable.

The present physical-economic collapse of the United

States is the result of four decades of stagnation and attri-

tion. Living standards have collapsed, industry has been

shut down, power per capita has decreased, and aging in-

frastructure systems are breaking down. The only way to

overcome the accumulated physical collapse

in the United States (let alone the entire

world) is to create greater leaps to higher

levels of progress.

The United States will already need to part-

ner with these Asian nations for the develop-

ment and implementation of the fourth gen-

eration nuclear requirements of the

NAWAPA XXI system itself,[1] but the

The Pacific Development Corridor

Maglev Across the

Bering Strait

NAWAPA XXI is the most comprehensive water and energy management

program which will transform the entire continent. Nothing short of a pro-

ject of this magnitude offers the means to bring about a real economic re-

covery from the past decades of de-industrialization and consumerism.

[1] The basic pumping requirements of the

NAWAPA XXI system will require over 50 giga-

watts of power. Additional requirements for de-

salination systems (up to 42 systems) and power

for industry increase the requirement, all in addi-

tion to the need to replace existing aging systems.

When the requirements of the world population

are considered, it becomes clear very quickly that

mankind needs a lot of nuclear power, and fast.

Economy," by Michael Kirsch.

implications of the construction and development of the

project take the connection deeper, and connecting the

North American and Eurasian landmasses across the

Bering Strait with high-speed magnetic-levitation

(maglev) rail is a keystone.

The gap between Alaska and Siberia—the Bering Strait,

stretching a mere 50-60 miles—can be connected by a

set of tunnels, linking the transportation systems of both

continents for the first time.[2] To support the greatest

leap in the productivity of the nations and people in-

volved, the most advanced magnetic-levitation rail sys-

tems are required. Unlike trains with wheels, maglev

trains float above the track, allowing for travel at well

over 300 miles per hour, smoother rides, less wear on

the track, and an improved ability to handle steep

grades.

These maglev systems are a critical element of the new

Pacific Development Corridor, connecting the United

States with East Asia through a density of high-

technology infrastructure, supporting the advanced de-

velopment of the entire Pacific coastal basin, including

resource development, new agricultural lands, new cit-

ies, and new nuclear agro-industrial complexes

(nuplexes).[3]

Because of the density of high-technology develop-

ment, centered on advanced infrastructure

and a high density of power, this corridor

can uniquely enable massive leaps in the

productivity of the high-technology space,

fission, fusion, machine-tool, and related

industries and manufacturing centers needed

to support a global fusion economy.

From this Pacific trunk line, development

corridors can branch off to the rest of the

world, completing the World Land-Bridge, as envisioned

by Helga Zepp-LaRouche and Lyndon LaRouche. Thus

the Pacific Corridor is now to be the start of a new global

economy, both in geographical terms, and in physical-

economic terms, because the growth factor provided to

these Pacific Rim populations and territories is what will

make the extensions physically possible.

The Pacific Trunk Line

The program starts with a focus on the development of

the Pacific basin territory. This includes supporting and

expanding the already extensive shipping routes, but the

end goal of an initial generational investment cycle must

guide the policy from day one.

On one end, the manufacturing centers of the Midwestern

United States and the critical Pacific ports in California

and Washington State, can be connected north, into the

Canadian and Alaskan regions of NAWAPA XXI, and

from there, on to the Alaska side of the Bering Strait, all

with maglev rail.

This is premised on the role of the Pacific ports in exist-

ing trade relations (and their physical-economic implica-

tions), and the future role of the Midwest as a new high-

technology industrial base in America.

At the other end, the high-technology re-

gions of China, South Korea, and Japan

can be linked up on the Asian side, with

maglev lines traveling from southern

China, to create a loop connecting China,

North Korea, South Korea, Japan (through

Hokkaido), Russia's Sakhalin Island, the

Russian mainland, and back down into

China. From this, a connection runs north,

through eastern Russia, meeting the

maglev Bering Strait connection from

Siberia.

This East Asia side links the relevant

ports, along with the high-technology and

industrial centers of South Korea, Japan,

and China, including the Russian plans for

an advanced space industry complex

(along the Svobodny-Komsovolsk corri-

dor) in the region, centered around the

new Vostochny Cosmodrome.[4]

Taken together, this defines an initial

functional system, in which high-speed maglev rail and a

nuclear-thermonuclear driver can support the develop-

ment of the Pacific Rim, connecting the high-technology

and industrial centers of the United States and East Asia,

through the NAWAPA and Siberian territories.

However, the key is that the connecting route will not just

be an empty transport line. Fast transportation, water,

high densities of nuclear power, and abundant untapped

resources enable the creation of the most advanced and

productive strip of territory the Earth has ever seen. New

cities and industries can be constructed along the way,

featuring upgraded nuplex systems designed to work with

fourth-generation fission reactors and thermonuclear fu-

sion technologies (see"Nuclear Agro-Industrial Com-

plexes for NAWAPA XXI"). The extensive resources

available in the Arctic can be developed with the most

advanced nuclear and thermonuclear tech-

nologies, and raw, semi-processed, and

processed goods can be rapidly delivered

to the high-technology industrial centers

at each end in Asia and North America,

radiating the effects of a higher level of

productivity throughout the global econ-

omy.

The key is achieving the highest level of

energy-flux density accessible, integrated

with the most advanced infrastructure

systems, concentrated to create a revolu-

tionary leap in the physical-economic

productive powers of labor throughout the

region .

As the world shifts to a Pacific orienta-

tion, the Pacific Development Corridor

will be the ultra-high-productivity back-

bone of the new world economy, and NAWAPA XXI

with the Bering Strait connection, can be the critical driver

to initiate the entire program.

Maglev Systems

Germany and Japan have already developed magnetic-

levitation train systems, while other designs have been

proposed by U.S. engineers. While there are variations in

the designs, the general principle is to use the power of

magnetism to create a continuous gap between the entire

train and the track, allowing the floating train to be

smoothly propelled electromagnetically at very high

speeds. This is powered by the electrical grid (eliminating

the need for separate engines and fuel supplies for each

train), and because there is no direct contact on the track,

there is no mechanical wear and tear, allowing for longer-

lasting tracks with less maintenance. And difficult weather

conditions (such as iced tracks) do not pose a problem to

electromagnetic braking and acceleration.

Maglev can also travel up and down steeper grades than

conventional rail, allowing for much easier travel through

mountainous terrain—as encountered in the NAWAPA

XXI regions and the Pacific Development Corridor.

The German system is called the Transrapid. Utilizing

electromagnets to lift the train, Transrapid created a test

facility in 1987, but after years of successful demonstra-

tions, the only construction of an operational line has been

in China, with the Shanghai Transrapid running since

2004, achieving a maximum speed of 311 miles per hour.

In Japan, maglev systems are being developed which util-

ize a different technology, superconducting magnets. Al-

though they have to be cooled and are heavier systems,

the superconductivity allows for a much stronger mag-

netic lift, creating a larger gap between the train and the

track, and the ability to handle heavier loads. In June of

2013, officials at Central Japan Railway unveiled their

latest prototype, the "Lo" model, which is planned to be-

gin operations between Tokyo and Nagoya in 2027, oper-

ating at 360 miles per hour.[5]

While much of the discussion has focused on the applica-

tions for passenger transport, the systems can also revolu-

tionize freight and cargo transport. Even the existing

Transrapid systems could be quickly altered for freight,

while additional investments could produce faster and

more advanced second-generation systems.[6] The more

powerful superconducting magnets involved in the Japa-

nese design can carry heavier loads, further increasing the

possibilities for maglev freight transport.[7] Again, the

faster speeds and ability to handle steeper grades and cold

climates make these systems far superior to existing wheel

-based rail, especially for the terrain of NAWAPA XXI,

accessing Arctic resource deposits, and

traversing the length of the Pacific De-

velopment Corridor.

With maglev, the top speeds are limited

not by the magnetic-levitation technolo-

gies, but by wind resistance as speed

increases. While it will not be worth-

while for freight, ultra-fast passenger

transport can take full advantage of the

magnetic-levitation capabilities by util-

izing enclosed-vacuum or semi-vacuum

tubes, removing the air-resistance factor

(and trouble with sonic booms), and

allowing for speeds of thousands of

miles per hour.[8] Special ultra-fast

passenger transport could bring people

from American urban-industrial centers to those in East

Asia in a matter of hours.

The Nuclear-Thermonuclear Driver

The highest levels of energy-flux density are required to

power this development corridor. While significant

amounts of electricity will be needed to support the de-

velopment of this entire territory, including the maglev

lines and advanced industrial sectors on both ends,

power sources with higher temperatures and greater heat

densities have broad applications beyond electricity gen-

eration.

The decades-old concept of nuclear-powered agro-

industrial complexes must be revived and upgraded.

Fourth-generation nuclear-fission reactors provide

higher levels of process heat, allowing for direct applica-

tions to chemical, industrial, and agricultural require-

ments, ranging from the production of metals, to fertiliz-

ers, to synthetic fuels. Centralizing these processes in a

dense cluster maximizes the productivity and efficiency

(see "Nuclear Agro-Industrial Complexes for NAWAPA

XXI").

Additionally, nuclear desalination and water purification

can provide abundant water where needed along the cor-

ridor as well (see "The Nuclear NAWAPA XXI and the

New Economy").

Even more advanced options are available with fission-

fusion-hybrid systems, controlled high-temperature

plasma-based systems, and full-scale controlled thermo-

nuclear fusion (see "A Call for an International Crash

Program: Creating the Fusion Economy").

High energy-flux-density processing of raw materials

closer to the extraction site enables the transportation of

higher quality goods, translating to a greater value per

ton transported. It also enables the more efficient proc-

essing of ores, cheapening the process and making lower

-grade and lower-concentration deposits valuable and

economically viable resources.

These considerations must be placed up front when con-

sidering the development of the vast Arctic resource

deposits, including the role of strategic Arctic fusion-

fission nuplex power and processing systems along the

Pacific Corridor.

For these reasons, it will be critical to locate demonstra-

tion and experimental fusion systems specifically along

this corridor, with the goal of developing a broad range

of fusion technologies. This includes high-temperature

controlled-plasma technologies such as the plasma torch,

capable of separating any substance (from nuclear

"waste," to chemical waste, to dirt, to basic city trash)

into its constituent elements, turning virtually any input

into useful material. The resulting resources can even be

tuned to the isotopic level—providing higher-quality

materials than were possible before.

To maximize the benefits received from the surrounding

infrastructure, and contributions delivered back to the [8] Ibid.

60

integrated productive processes, the initial experimental

investigation and development of high-temperature

plasma and fusion-related systems should be strategically

constructed as part of the Pacific Development Corridor,

and within proximity to the advanced industry on both

ends, and the resource development along the corridor

when appropriate.

Bering Strait and the World Land-Bridge

Integrating the NAWAPA XXI, Bering Strait, Arctic De-

velopment, and Pacific Corridor projects will provide the

needed economic leaps for the nations involved, creating

a density of productive potential that will drive the

growth of the entire world.

Done properly, this can be the physi-

cal-economic foundation for a new

global economy.

Branching off the East Asian side,

the northern, central, and southern

corridors of the Eurasian Land-

Bridge can be upgraded to maglev

and high energy-flux-density devel-

opment corridors, reaching back into

Europe, where the Paris-Berlin-

Vienna Product ive Triangle

(see EIR, Feb. 2, 1990) can become

the high-technology center of west-

ern Eurasia. Through Spain and the

Middle East, two branches reach

down into Africa, bringing the same

density of development and advanced

infrastructure throughout the conti-

nent.

On the North American side,

branches from the main Pacific De-

velopment Corridor can expand

across the rest of the continent, inte-

grating national and international

high-speed maglev rail grids through-

out the United States, Canada, and

Mexico. From Mexico, the lines con-

tinue into South America across the

Darien Gap, connecting the tip of

Argentina with the tip of South Af-

rica in a single high-speed maglev

network.

The first stage is the development of the Pacific Develop-

ment Corridor, with NAWAPA XXI and the Bering Strait

connection being the critical driver. Done with a fusion-

fission driver applied to the most advanced infrastructure,

industry, and resource development, this high density of

high-technology development is the only way to provide

the needed physical-economic leaps, overcoming the past

four and a half decades of attritional collapse by reaching

farther and faster into the future.

These are requirements, not options.

opment project that begins with the World Land-Bridge on

The placement of new strike weapons in the south and

northwest of Russia against [NATO] missile defense

components, including the deployment of Iskander mis-

sile systems in the Kaliningrad region, is one possible

way of incapacitating the European missile defense in-

frastructure.... Taking into account the destabilizing na-

ture of the [NATO] missile defense system ... a decision

to use destructive force pre-emptively will be taken if

the situation worsens [emphasis added].

This was the warning issued by Russia's highest military

official, Chief of the Russian Armed Forces General

Staff Gen. Nikolai Makarov, speaking at an international

conference on ballistic missile defense systems (BMDS),

hosted in Moscow by the Russian government. The two-

day event (May 3 and 4) featured Russia's clear warning

that it recognizes NATO's planned development of

BMDS in Eastern Europe as a strategic threat to Russia,

and, more importantly, that it will not back down to such

threats. This missile defense conference was timed in an

attempt to preempt the NATO summit in Chicago, start-

ing May 20. It included statements by the secretary of

Russia's Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev, who also

emphasized Russia's view in no uncertain terms:

"The geographical regions and technical characteristics

of these [NATO] missile defense systems create the foun-

dations for additional dangers, especially considering

the current and future levels of high-precision armament

of the United States.... [T]here simply are no targets for

the missile defense shield other than Russia."

Rounding off Russia's clear warning that it will not back

down, Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov described

the status of Russia-U.S.A. talks on missile defense as

follows:

"So far, we have not found a mutually acceptable solu-

tion to the missile defense issue, and the situation is at a

dead end.... There is a dilemma facing our countries

now.... Either we pass this test of cooperation and re-

spond together to new missile challenges and threats, or

we will be forced to undertake the necessary military

measures."[1]

And to underscore the timing of this missile defense con-

ference, Alexander Lukashevich, the Russian Ministry of

Foreign Affairs spokesman, stated outright the deadline

that Russia is setting in stone:

"I think that the signals sent not only by General

Makarov, but also by other senior military officers, were

intended to make the participants of the upcoming Chi-

cago NATO summit understand the how serious the

situation is and to reconfigure their thinking to take the

Russian arguments into account in the further develop-

ment of their BMDS."

At the present moment, due to the failure of the U.S. in-

stitutional forces to remove Barack Obama from office

for his constitutional violations, we now sit at the brink

of conflicts that would rapidly escalate into full scale

thermonuclear war.

These are not statements of Russia as an aggressor; these

are warnings from a threatened Russia being told to sub-

mit to the global dominance of a bankrupt trans-Atlantic

financial empire.

Look at the clear ironies of the present situation (Figure

1). These recent warnings from Russia come in the con-

text of a longer period of such warnings. In November

2011, President Dmitri Medvedev issued similar warn-

ings, and over the past six months, Dmitri Rogozin, ear-

lier speaking as Russian ambassador to NATO, and since

December as the Deputy Prime Minister, has repeatedly

condemned this NATO activity.

However, the Russian leadership has also proposed an

alternative.

The Thermonuclear Option:

Extinction or Existence

[1] For further coverage of this Moscow conference see

"Russians Warn of Pre-Emptive Strike Against Missile Defense

System,"http://larouchepac.com/node/22576

62

As early as October, Rogozin proposed to break the im-

plicitly thermonuclear showdown over the NATO ballis-

tic missile defense systems by offering joint cooperation

between Russia and the United States on both missile

defense, and, raising the focus of discussion, on the de-

fense of all of mankind from the threat of asteroid or

comet impacts.[2]

This has been followed by a pattern of activity coming

out of Russia, taking up exactly this issue.

On March 2, speaking to a meeting of space experts,

Rogozin repeated the need to

take up the issue of defense

against asteroid or comet im-

pacts. Then on April 26, the

head of the Russian Federal

Space Agency (Roscosmos),

Vitali Davydov, proposed the

creation of a new Russian fed-

eral program to address these

threats, saying, "Various means

of acting on potentially danger-

ous space objects should be

developed and perfected in

space, using both powerful one

-time actions, and those em-

ploying weak influence over

long periods of time," and im-

plying the need for interna-

tional collaboration. Davydov

made this statement at a scien-

tific conference, "Russia's National Interests in the Con-

text of Global Security."

The keynote speaker at that conference, Nikolai

Patrushev, also reiterated the importance of global de-

fense against the threat of impacts, announcing that the

Russian Security Council (of which he is the head) is

going to, for the first time, place this issue of asteroid and

comet impacts on the agenda of its upcoming global se-

curity conference (June 6-8 in St. Petersburg). The cover-

age in the Russian daily Rossiyskaya Gazeta stated:

"In addition to the traditional international security

problems, entirely new threats will be discussed in Pe-

tersburg [in June]. For example, ones such as counter-

acting the asteroid danger. This is not a joke and not

science fiction." If the attendance at this June global se-

curity conference is similar to the previous two, we can

expect 50 nations to be represented, including China and

the United States.[3]

This underscores the pattern coming from the top levels

of the current Russian government, a refusal to back

down under imperial pressure of thermonuclear war,

while at the same time offering the United States an

alternative route, one towards

collaboration in overcoming the

threats plaguing the future exis-

tence of all of mankind.

But perhaps the most significant

factor in this pattern of activity is

both the implicit, and explicit,

focus on the work of Lyndon La-

Rouche. Russia's October 2011

"Strategic Defense of Earth" pro-

posal was properly covered by

Russia Today (rt.com) as named

in an explicit reference to the

Strategic Defense Initiative pro-

gram of the 1980s—of which La-

Rouche was the key author and

organizer. More recently, the

online Russian website Terra

America has initiated a series of

articles focusing on LaRouche

[see article, this issue]. In their comprehensive coverage

of LaRouche and his activity, they provided, as one Rus-

sian specialist described it, some of the most honest cov-

erage of LaRouche's authorship of the SDI to ever come

out of Russia.[4]

As those knowledgeable in matters of global strategy

have stated, the SDI is still, to this day, a living factor of

history.

Extinction or Existence

There is a common underlying question posed by these

threats, both thermonuclear war and asteroid or comet

impacts: Can mankind demonstrate its fitness to exist in

this universe?

Countless species have come into existence on our planet,

and countless have then left—rendered extinct by the

forces inherent in a developing and changing solar-

galactic system.[5]

At the same time that Russia is calling out the threat of

NATO's BMD systems in Eastern Europe, we also look

to the United States' fleet of Ohio Class military subma-

rines, 14 of which are loaded with Trident multi-warhead

thermonuclear missiles. Each submarine alone, if fully

loaded, has the capacity to deliver from 96 to 192 nuclear

warheads (each warhead being either 8 or 40 times more

powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945).

Some of these submarines are currently deployed in the

Pacific Ocean, in positions from which hundreds of loca-

tions across Asia can be targeted for annihilation.

This is only a part of the total U.S. thermonuclear capac-

ity, not to mention the thermonuclear arsenals of Russia

and China (Table 1).

Thermonuclear war is unlike any other form of warfare

ever to have taken place. It is total annihilation warfare,

in which the first strike immediately ensures the last

strike, as the first confirmation of a launch on either side

triggers immediate full retaliation from the other. Within

a few minutes, human civilization could

be over.

Beyond the hundreds of immediate tar-

gets, the carryover effects of hundreds

to thousands of thermonuclear detona-

tions would produce a so-called thermo-

nuclear winter, from which we have no

guarantee that the human species would

emerge.

But what does such a power express?

Among all forms of known life, man-

kind is absolutely unique. Whereas all

simply animal species are characterized

by a fixed, biologically defined mode of

behavior, the human species is not de-

fined biologically. Mankind's existence

is defined by the scientific and cultural level of

our economic activity, in which transitions

from one cultural-scientific mode of existence

to the next are strictly qualitative transforma-

tions (Figure 2).[6] As Lyndon LaRouche has

rigorously defined in his science of physical

economics, a rough, but very important meas-

ure of mankind's advance is the physical eco-

nomic metric of energy-flux density.

A "thermonuclear mankind" requires that we

either end warfare as we have known it over

the past few thousand years, or we end human

civilization by the continuation of such forms

of warfare.

That is one strategic aspect, but there is an-

other.

A thermonuclear mankind also carries, for the

first time in the entire billions of years' history

of life on our planet, the possibility for the con-

tinuation of advanced life in our Solar System's

travels through the Milky Way galaxy.

human existence, see the important new La-

Near-Earth Objects as a Step

into the Galaxy

Take the already mentioned vital issue of defending man-

kind against asteroid and comet impacts.

Despite decades of growing interest (especially increas-

ing over the past 10-15 years), resulting in studies, con-

ferences, reports, and coordinated observation programs,

there is currently no serious program to ensure the pro-

tection of the human species from even the most basic

inevitability of future impacts.

The energy released from comet or asteroid impacts can

be hard to even conceptualize, and could easily supersede

even that of nuclear war, including the global atmos-

pheric effects (Table 2).

Based upon our best understanding of the activity within

our Solar System, the problem of an impact is not an is-

sue of if, but when.

Based on work initiated in the early 1990s, the U.S. Con-

gress has mandated that NASA find, catalog, and track

asteroids and comets that have orbits either near to, or

crossing the Earth's orbit. These are often referred to as

Near-Earth Objects (NEOs). Over the past nearly two

decades, a loose affiliation under the name of Space-

guard, has coordinated the efforts of telescopes around

the world to find, track, and forecast the future orbits of

NEOs, including by centralizing the observational data,

data processing, and orbital forecasts (often attempting to

forecast the NEO orbits 100 years into the future to see if

there are any possible impacts with the Earth[7]).

This is an important and crucial effort, as far as it goes.

However this does not include so-called "long-period

comets" (whose orbits take them to the farthest outskirts

of the Solar System), which, though rarer, are generally

significantly larger and come at us faster. These are cur-

rently classified as "too difficult to deal with," and using

present observation technologies, we would be lucky to

have a few months to maybe a half-year of advance

warning.

Six months may sound like a long time, but any current

intercept mission, based on mankind's existing space-

faring capabilities, would take many years to design, con-

struct, and execute.

Our best defense absolutely depends on early detection

and early action. Attempting to move an NEO off an im-

pact course at the proverbial last minute would require an

impossible amount of energy. Our planetary defense de-

pends on moving NEOs when they are much farther from

the Earth, where a smaller (but possible) effect on their

trajectory can ensure that they miss the Earth.

Even considering the years of lead time needed to design,

construct, and launch an intercept mission, we have to

add the time it takes to reach the asteroid (which could

also be on the order of years, depending on where in the

Solar System we wish to intercept it). In the case of a

serious threat, we could obviously attempt to speed up

each of these steps, but the point is that right now we are

talking about years to just reach a potentially threatening

NEO. We still then have to move it.

The best chance of moving an object off its collision

course depends upon affecting either its speed or its orbit,

years before its expected impact date. Because of the

immense size of these space rocks, it takes a tremendous

amount of energy to affect them, but a small change in

either the speed or the orbit of an NEO will cumulatively

add up to a larger effect over a longer period of time.

The earlier we affect a dangerous NEO, the more of a

change we will have made in its trajectory by the time it

reaches, and hopefully misses, the Earth.

With the present observation technologies, we may well

be able to get decades of warning time for a threatening

NEO (at least for the larger ones which are easier to see,

though many medium and smaller sized NEOs remain

undiscovered[8]).[9] This is still only the detection side.

Effective defense also requires more detailed characteri-

zation of the potentially threatening object (for example

its composition, general structure, or spin rate), and a

means to alter its trajectory, so we can guarantee that it

won't impact anywhere on the Earth. Having a detailed

[7] Though numerous uncertainties in the forecasting capabil-

ity often remain, such as the NEOs' spin and tumble rates,

mass, composition, solar heating and radiative effects, close

fly-bys of other objects, etc. These can pose challenges to

determining the exact likelihood of a potential impact decades

into the future.

66

characterization is crucial to any attempt to move an

NEO, as some are solid rock, others are referred to as

"loose rubble piles"; some spin fast, some spin slowly,

etc. These and other properties of a particular NEO will

have to be understood in order to determine the best

method of affecting its trajectory.

There have been a number of proposed methods which

could be attempted to alter the trajectory of a threatening

NEO. Table 3 highlights some of the more prominent

proposals.

Among these proposed options there are various benefits

and shortfalls depending upon the characteristics of the

target object: for example, its size, its composition, and

how much time we have to act will determine what op-

tions are best suited for that particular situation.

Here we must emphasize, despite extensive written re-

ports and concept proposals, and although we have de-

veloped many (but not all) of the technologies that would

be involved, we have yet to test or demonstrate the capa-

bility to deflect a potentially threatening object.

To quote from a 2009 report of the International Acad-

emy of Astronautics, which summarized a decade of se-

rious research into this subject:

Given the wide diversity in characteristics of these ob-

jects and the continuing dynamics in the NEO popula-

tion, the certainty of a successful deflection, even if all

systems of the [deflection mission] work as designed, is

not great. Furthermore, neither today's technologies, nor

those likely to be available in the next decade or two lead

to systems with extremely high reliability.

Thus the probability of a successful deflection of an

NEO with a single mission using any known concept is

far lower than desired, given the likely horrendous con-

sequences of a failure. It is therefore clear that the devel-

opment and deployment of a robust, multiple option,

redundant, coordinated system of multiple and diverse

systems is needed; and that the deflection of an NEO

cannot be a mission but must rather be a campaign of

multiple orchestrated missions.[10]

Immediately, years of preparation time can be saved by

designing, developing, and demonstrating deflection sys-

tems, and creating the international cooperation and

structure to achieve these goals. This presents a current

challenge for the international community, to take ad-

vantage of all existing technologies, space launch sys-

tems, etc., and create a defense capability for the entire

planet which no animal species has ever had before.

Certain significant steps can be initiated in the relatively

short term; however, the only way to actually ensure the

continued existence of the human species is to engage

nations in a very specific form of economic activity

known as a science-driver program.

Energy-Flux Density

The immediate economic crisis that plagues the world,

centered on the hyperinflationary bankruptcy of the trans

-Atlantic economic region, sufficiently demonstrates the

deadly failure of the vast majority of present economic

thinking.

It also demonstrates the genocidal nature of the green/

environmentalist ideology generally.

Real value, real wealth is produced only by mankind's

uniquely creative capability, and its application to in-

creases in man's power in the universe. Lyndon La-

Rouche's physical economic metric of energy-flux den-

sity is a crucial correlative of this power. A mankind

embarking upon the mastery of the atomic domain

(fission, fusion, matter anti-matter) is simply not the

same mankind as one defined by simply chemical modes

of action. Therefore, as a fundamental economic

[8] A NASA release from September 2011 provides an up-

dated estimation of the total NEO population (based on data

from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) infra-

red space telescope), and new estimations of what percent-

age we have yet to find. See, "NASA Space Telescope Finds Fewer Asteroids Near Earth,"http://www.nasa.gov/

mission_pages/WISE/news/wise20110929.html

[9] However this is presently not the case for long-period

comets, an issued that has been raised by concerned scien-tists. Again, although they are significantly less frequent,

they are generally much larger and are faster. Currently,

little or no action has been taken to improve our chances

against long-period comets, because the task is deemed too

difficult to handle with existing capabilities.

Comets," p. 66, International Academy of Astronautics, Janu-

principle, the human species must always engage a lim-

ited, but significant portion of its economic activity in

task-oriented challenges whose solutions require science

and technology beyond the present scope of what is im-

mediately available to mankind. Science-driver programs

which increase the range of available technologies are the

most effective and useful economic programs available to

mankind.

They are not just profitable, as the threat of NEO impacts

demonstrates, they are absolutely necessary for the con-

tinued existence of mankind.

Too much of the present planetary defense discussion is

characterized by the present economic paradigm of ridicu-

lous budget restraints and obsessive focus on the mone-

tary costs. In response we can obviously present the inevi-

table cost to life and our planet if we don't develop such

defense systems, but there is a more fundamental point to

be made. NASA's Apollo program is a prime example of

how a science-driver program can transform the entire

economy of mankind. After the mission was completed,

financial analysts calculated the ratio of the investment

made by the government into the Moon mission, to the

profits for the economy generally which resulted from the

program (focusing on the benefits of so-called spinoff

technologies[11]). The Apollo program was probably the

most profitable national investment of the century, with

some analysts giving a figure as high as a 14:1 payback

ratio.[12]

The prospect being put forward by the top levels of the

Russian government, for collaboration on both missile

defense systems—to eliminate the threat of thermonuclear

missile exchange—and defense against threatened im-

pacts of asteroids and comets, presents an incredible op-

portunity for mankind as a whole. If this were taken as a

science-driver program, and part of a first step towards

man's colonization of the Moon, Mars, and beyond, then,

for the first time, we have a truly viable option for the

future existence of the human species.

On that note, we end with an excerpt from an April 12

interview that Lyndon LaRouche conducted with the new

Russian online publication, Terra America:

Terra America: How realistic would it be for Russia and

the U.S.A. to unite efforts, possibly with other countries,

too, for implementation of a Mars program? Does man-

kind need to colonize Mars?

LaRouche: It is not merely realistic; it is an urgent need

of all mankind. Whereas, the factor of national and cul-

tural sovereignty must be maintained during foreseeable

generations now before us, the fact that human culture

has already reached a point at which general warfare

were virtually unthinkable, especially in the presence of

an inevitability of thermonuclear weaponry, and, soon

higher energy-flux densities, we must be working for the

goal of concurrence of efficient national sovereignties

and accelerating rates of general development and em-

ployment of accelerating rates of increase of energy-flux

densities. War as we have known it must be prevented by

means of advanced productive technologies, rather than

curbing their combined development and employment.

To speak of a notion of the colonization of Mars, falls far

short of the reality which we must accustom ourselves to

foresee. We must approach the process of what some

might consider colonization of Mars, by taking into ac-

count the challenge assumed by Russia's SDE project.

The deployment of systems of management within the So-

lar System which we require as preparations for human

habitations and related activities, can not be competently

confined to the localities of a planet, or Solar System.

We must begin to clear our minds by taking into account

the implications of a thermonuclear-fusion-impelled craft

reaching Mars from our Moon within a duration of a

week between launch and arrival at destination. That will

not be the limit of the needed instrumentation of the Solar

System. We must instrument more and more features of

the Solar System to the effect that primitive beliefs in a

fixed order of space and of time no longer exist for those

in times to come, even within our presently advancing

century. We should aim to have entered the early phase of

man-Mars developments within the range of leading de-

velopments to be accomplished within the coming quarter

-century”.[13]

[11] That is, technologies that were developed for the space pro-gram objective of landing a man on the Moon, but then found many other applications in the economy generally. [12] Again here we must refer to Jason Ross's presentation of the

qualitative, not merely quantitative, nature of fundamental eco-nomic progress. Simply put, the post-Apollo dollars are not the same thing as the pre-Apollo dollars. Money is a tool and an effect, nothing more. See, "The Riemann Project: Economic Reflections," athttp://science.larouchepac.com/riemann/ [13] See http://www.terra-america.ru/.
