GLASS-STEAGALL NOW! Shut Down Wall Street Before It Kills You

August 31—With major international summits beginning September 2, and Congress returning September 6, these next two weeks will be far more decisive than the November 8 election for the future of the United States, and for mankind. Lyndon LaRouche has warned that unless the U.S. Congress acts—and now, in September—to re-instate Glass-Steagall, as the first step in a much larger overhaul of economic and monetary policy, then the entire trans-Atlantic system is headed for blow-out.

In discussion with colleagues today, LaRouche said the following, “If they avoid the issue of Glass-Steagall, in particular, and related issues, then the people who do that will bring their death upon themselves. You cannot afford to overlook what the issue is here. You will have a lot of dead people suddenly because they didn’t pay attention.”

This coming week will witness a march of three successive international heads-of-state summits in Asia—Russia’s Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, China’s hosting of the G-20, and Laos’ hosting of the ASEAN plus 6—and these will continue to establish that China, Russia, and India—not Obama and NATO—are creating a new global system. And while China takes the lead at this week’s G-20 summit to create a new and just global financial system, British stooge Barack Obama, in his state of delusion intends to push his already doomed Trans-Pacific Partner-ship (TPP) as part of his war agenda against Rus-sia and China.

Next Sunday, the United States will confront the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, and the first in which the real foreign sponsors of the ter-ror attacks, i.e. the British and Saudi Monarchies, stand exposed with the now-released 28 pages of the Joint Congressional Inquiry, as do the insti-tutions which ran the cover-up, including, but not limited, to the FBI and the CIA. In light of these revelations, New York City will convene this weekend through a powerful series of choral per-formances of Mozart’s Requiem performed by the Schiller Institute Chorus, including a special mass on September 11 in honor of the FDNY, all part of attaining full justice for the heinous murder of 3,000-plus Americans fifteen years ago.

And there are clear and accelerating signs of an imminent trans-Atlantic financial blowout. The last-minute deal to save Italy’s Monte dei Paschi bank is now unraveling, and JPMorgan Chase is now pushing a private sector bail-in to avoid a wipeout of the entire Italian banking sector. CNBC reported last week that “banks are get-ting ready for economic nuclear winter,’’ devising worst-case contingency plans, which envision the complete bust-up of the eurozone and the end of the European Union, through a string of other exit votes all over Europe.

It has never been more true, that if the popula-tion wished to reverse the trend of the last fifteen, if not fifty years, Obama would be condemned as a tragic failure and patriotic forces would push Glass-Steagall through now!

Lyndon LaRouche addressed this underlying fear in the population: “And you know the FBI is part of this thing. Other institutions, like the FBI, are responsible for the suppression of the truth. I think the time has come to suppress the FBI! At least until it attains to its responsibility…

“And all the people who supported the idea of imprisoning me were fraudulent. And especial-ly some of the big-wig court people. They did it. They committed a crime… The problem is, that people don’t act on what they recognize is the problem!

“So we have to mobilize people as such to mobilize themselves. In other words, not to just mobilize themselves, as such, but to do an actual mobilizing of their own outreach… The problem is, people get scared. They’re afraid the FBI and all kinds of things go on. They’re intimidated.”

Time to ActAs with the ongoing summits, including the

upcoming United Nations General Assembly in the second half of September, there are strong strategic shifts underway. Putin has overturned the U.S./British policy in Southwest Asia, winning over Turkey and now even leading voices in Ger-many to a policy based on international law, the

elimination of terrorist networks, and broadscale economic development.

It is now increasingly evident that the policy by China, Russia, and India of building corridors of new infrastructure across Eurasia and Africa has become more powerful than Obama’s attempts to provoke war with Russia and China.

As Lyndon LaRouche said in discussion with colleagues earlier today, “I think we’ve got the packages right now. The main thing is to just maintain the packages of development and to in-crease them. We’re getting all the help we can get, probably, on the basis of the new attack against the gangsters, as we call them. And many mem-bers of the Congress are now being pushed into defending the rights of our citizens.

“That means, we just simply are going to mobi-lize the people, in our effect. Mobilize the people to force these rights—their rights, on the basis of this, just that simple consideration. It’s the only way it’s going to work.”

Glass-Steagall is the indispensable first step, in both the United States and Europe, to avert a financial avalanche. There are bipartisan bills in both Houses of Congress, as well as in both the Democratic and Republican Party platforms, and passing Glass-Steagall in the coming weeks will ultimately up-end the entire election process in favor of the American people as a whole.

The new global financial architecture and world land-bridge of transcontinental great proj-ects, now under construction, have been promot-ed by Lyndon and Helga LaRouche for over four decades.

It is now time to force the acceptance of Glass-Steagall banking regulation, eliminate the financial nuclear bomb of financial derivatives, and implement Lyndon LaRouche’s other three Cardinal Laws: create national credit banks; de-

fine a credit system according to the increase of the productive powers of labor through broad-scale development and infrastructure; and ad-vance the scientific frontiers of deep space explo-ration and fusion power development.

There is a limitless potential for mankind’s eco-nomic growth and development of creative capa-bilities. We must now assert our natural human rights for unending progress, or face the conse-quences of our own fears.

The Saudis and 9/11: The Truth and Nothing But the Truth Now!

by Jeffrey Steinberg

The July 15 release of the 28 page chapter from the original December 2002 Joint Congressional Inquiry into 9/11 has opened a new chapter in the 15-year long battle to get to the bottom of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, when nearly 3,000 innocent citizens were killed at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and western Pennsyl-vania, in the worst terrorist incident to ever occur on U.S. soil.

With the 15th anniversary of those attacks just days away, and with the newly revealed evidence of the direct hand of the Saudi Monarchy in those cowardly acts now out in the public view, it is time for a truly thorough and independent investiga-tion to get to the bottom of 9/11.

One immediate step is for the House of Repre-sentatives to unanimously pass the Justice Against Supporters of Terrorism Act (JASTA), which would reinstate the Saudi Monarchy as defendants in the long-running legal action brought by survi-vors and family members of the 9/11 victims. That case, now before a Federal Judge in New York, offers the most im-mediate opportunity to put top Saudi officials on record on their role in the terrorist attacks.

The 28 page chapter from the original Joint Inquiry made clear that senior Saudi officials, starting with Prince Bandar bin-Sultan, the long-serving Saudi Ambas-sador to the United States, had a direct hand in supporting the 9/11 terrorists. Bandar and his wife Princess Haifa provided at least $50,000 to the hijackers al-Mih-dhar and al-Hazmi, through two known Saudi intelligence agents, al-Basnan and al-Bayoumi. The paper trail is explicit, and it reach-es into the upper echelons of not just the Saudi Monarchy, but the British Monarchy as well.

At the time of the preparations for 9/11, Prince Bandar was receiving regular installments on a $2 billion kickback for his role in creating the Al Ya-mamah oil-for-arms deal between the British and the Saudis—a deal that also created offshore slush funds for the promoting of Al Qaeda and other ji-hadist groups. Funds went from the Al Yamamah accounts at the Bank of England to Bandar’s per-sonal accounts at Riggs National Bank in Wash-ington—and on from there to the west coast team of 9/11 terrorists.

By profile, Prince Bandar was hardly a Wahhabi fundamentalist or proponent of jihadist terrorism. Yet, his fingerprints are all over the 9/11 attacks. He was acting on behalf of the Saudi Monarchy and the British Monarchy—and, by extension, for the very George W. Bush/Dick Cheney U.S. Ad-ministration that used the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks as the rationale for going to war against Iraq, for imposing the Patriot Act, and for launching the

biggest illegal spying operation against American citizens in history.

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, who served as Chief of Staff to George W. Bush’s Secretary of State Colin Powell, recently told reporters that Vice President Cheney suppressed all evidence of the Saudi role in 9/11, because he was com-mitted to blaming the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks on Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, to justify the Anglo-American invasion of Iraq in March 2003.

Had the 28 page chapter of the Joint Inquiry Report been released to the public in Dec. 2002, it would have been impossible for Bush and Cheney to have gotten their dirty war against Iraq. It would have been like going to war against China after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor.

So Cheney, Bush and others at the top of the Executive Branch suppressed the 28 pages—for 15 years—and got their Iraq war and all of the horrors that followed.

Truth Does Not Have an Expiration Date Fifteen years after the fact, it is time for a full and

honest reckoning with history. A truly thorough and independent official investigation must be launched into 9/11. It must start from the top. The British government of Tony Blair shut down the in-vestigation into the Al Yamamah deal at the point that investigators from Britain’s Serious Fraud Of-fice were getting at the secret offshore slush funds that have been the biggest source of money to glob-al jihadist terrorism, dating back to 1985, when Al Qaeda was first being launched out of the Afghani-stan War. That investigation must be reopened.

Before their work was shut down, investigators for the Joint Inquiry and the 9/11 Commission es-tablished a list of more than 20 Saudi government officials who were directly linked to the two west coast hijackers. Many held important posts in the Saudi Embassy in Washington, others were spread around the United States and Europe.

A Federal Judge in Florida is reviewing more than 80,000 pages of long-suppressed FBI doc-uments, revealing another Saudi link to 9/11, through a wealthy Saudi businessman, employed by leading Saudi princes, whose Sarasota, Fla. home was frequently visited by Mohammed Atta and two other hijackers. The FBI sat on those doc-uments for a decade, and only released them to the Judge when investigative journalists for the Broward Bulldog online publication found out about the Sarasota links.

Senator Bob Graham, the former U.S. Senator from Florida who co-chaired the Joint Inquiry and has been a champion of the fight for full dis-closure of the Saudi role in 9/11, has demanded to know: What about the Saudi terror cells in Hern-don, Va. and Paterson, NJ? Where else is there evidence of top-down Saudi royal involvement? Nothing short of a de novo complete investigation can be tolerated—even at this late moment.

This time, the investigation must have unlim-ited resources to do the job. The FBI, which 9/11 Commission investigators accused of running a top-down coverup, must be a subject of the new probe. The role of successive British governments must be included, because without an under-standing of the Al Yamamah deal and other rela-tions between the British and Saudi Monarchies, the truth will remain concealed.

Lyndon LaRouche was on hand as the planes crashed into the World Trade Center towers on the morning of 9/11. Seven months prior to those attacks, LaRouche had warned that the incoming Bush-Cheney Administration would look for a “Reichstag Fire” incident to go for dictatorship.

On the day of the 9/11 attacks, LaRouche sup-porters were out on the streets of New York and many other cities around the country, warning about an imminent terrorist attack, based on ev-idence accumulated over the course of the sum-mer of 2001.

The heroic Members of the U.S. Congress, who joined with Sen. Graham and with LaRouchePAC in fighting for the release of the 28 pages, have all said, in their own words, that the reading of those 28 pages and the evidence they contained of the Saudi complicity in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, changed their view of history.

Those 28 pages merely opened the door into a much bigger scandal, which must now be fully unearthed. The families and victims of 9/11—liv-ing and dead—have the right to the truth, as do the American people.

The release of the 28 pages was a victory for persistent public action, which forced the Obama Administration to end the nearly eight-year cov-er-up, which followed the eight year cover-up by Bush and Cheney. On the strength and mo-mentum of that victory, and as we pause to com-memorate the 15th anniversary of those heinous crimes, we must assure that the full probe goes forward now.

Destination Moon: The Next Frontier for the Common Aims of All Mankind

by Kesha Rogers and Ben Deniston

“The Moon is the touchstone of the human future.”— Krafft Ehricke

China is opening up a new frontier in mankind’s exploration of the Galaxy! Earlier this year, China announced that it plans to be the first nation to land on the far side of the Moon, when it launches its Chang’e 4 mission in 2018. This comes in the context of increasing interest, on the part of China and Russia, in returning mankind to the Moon, possibly including permanently manned bases. China is taking global leadership in mankind’s conquest in space.

Lyndon LaRouche responded to these developments by calling for a full mapping of the Moon, especially the far side. While the lunar far side has been imaged and investigated from lunar orbit, mankind is far from uncovering all of the secrets the lunar far side is hiding, and we can only imag-ine what implications tomorrow’s discoveries will create for trans-forming mankind’s relation to the Solar system and beyond.

China’s lunar exploration program clearly indicates that China is not just making a new landing site on the Moon’s surface, but opening up to mankind what German-American space pioneer and aeronautical engineer Krafft Ehricke once described as the “seventh continent” of the world. By doing so, China—in collaboration with Russia and other nations—establishes mankind as a truly polyglobal species.

Return To A Mission For MankindThe world is moving forward, and the vision

for a new paradigm is already coming into being, despite the refusal of the United States to join in the win-win cooperation offered by China for the benefit and progress of all nations.

Instead, President Barack Obama has dis-mantled and privatized our U.S. manned space program, bailed out the bankrupt speculators of Wall Street as they continue to plunder the physi-cal economy, and launched a series of illegal wars around the world. By aborting the Constellation program—which focused on the Moon as a criti-cal, permanent destination for the exploration and development of space—Obama eliminated our nation’s ability to lead a manned presence in space for the foreseeable future. Not only has the project to return to, and develop the Moon been scrapped under Obama, but an insane project to capture an asteroid was set up to replace it. Research on ther-monuclear fusion power has also been cut.

How long will Americans condone sTuch in-sanity? We must demand a restoration of a nation-al mission for the development of space outlined by such visionary leaders as President Kennedy and Krafft Ehricke, who saw the Moon not just as a temporary attraction or landing ground, but as essential to mankind’s development of the Solar system.

China’s emphasis on lunar development, with its focus on landing on the lunar far side, is a crit-ical phase of a science-driver program essential to international cooperation and economic devel-

opment around the planet and beyond. Lunar exploration and space development must be de-fined in terms of a program for economic development of the Moon, needed in conjunction with a crash program for fusion power, as defined by Lyndon LaRouche. This was a shared vi-sion between Mr. LaRouche, his wife Helga, and their close friend Krafft Ehricke, and is now an es-sential aspect of human develop-ment for the coming century.

Ehricke also envisioned and mapped such a program in great detail. In his 1985 article on “Lu-nar Industrialization and Settle-ment,” he states:

“The most important aspect of lunar development lies in the human sector. It bears repeating that technological progress and environmental expansion are no substitutes for human growth and maturity, but they can help the human reach higher maturity and wisdom.”

“Human growth is contingent not only on the absence of war, or overcoming hun-ger, poverty, and social injustice—but on the pres-ence of overarching, elevating goals, and their asso-ciated perspectives. Expanding into space needs to be understood and approached as world develop-ment, as a positive, peaceful, growth-oriented, mac-rosociological project, whose goal is to ultimately re-lease humanity from its present parasitic, embryonic bondage in the biospheric womb of one planet. This will demand immense human creativity, courage, and maturity.”

It is with these common aims of mankind in mind that nations around the world, led by China and Russia, define a unified mission of unfolding mankind’s truly creative nature, and thus take up the Moon as a stepping stone destination for mankind’s development of space. China’s statement of principle for space exploration declares that, “Outer space is the commonwealth of mankind. Exploration, devel-opment, and utilization of outer space are an unre-mitting pursuit of mankind.”

China and Russia Take the LeadChina’s lunar exploration program is current-

ly leading the way. In December 2013, the world was gripped with excitement when China made the first soft landing on the Moon in 40 years with its Chang’e 3 mission carrying the Yutu rover. Now China has announced that the 2018 Chang’e 4 mission will fulfill mankind’s first-ever landing on the far side of the Moon.

Because the Moon makes one rotation on its axis in the same time that it takes to complete one orbital rotation around the Earth, the same side of the Moon is always facing our home planet, leav-ing the far side shrouded in mystery.

Although the far side was imaged from lunar orbit in 1959 by the Soviet Union—and at higher resolution in 1967–1968 by NASA’s Lunar Recon-naissance Orbiter—mankind has barely scratched the surface. In discussions over the past week, Lyndon LaRouche called for a full mapping and investigation of the lunar far side, and everything it may represent for mankind.

For example, the geology on the far side—as we know it so far from photography and radar (mi-crowave) imaging—is anomalous compared to the near side. It provides a relatively undisturbed record of the early history of the Moon, but it also preserves traces that can tell us about the chang-ing and developing Solar system and the Galaxy beyond. The Chinese have wisely chosen to land the Chang’e 4 mission in a particularly interesting location on the far side, the Aitken basin near the south pole. It is possibly the largest, deepest, and oldest impact crater on the Moon.

Chang’e 4 will also continue China’s investiga-tion into critical questions of the distribution of water, metals, and other potential resources, in-cluding the superb fusion fuel helium-3, which is nearly absent on the Earth. Approximately 50 tons of it could power the entire United States for one year. It is thought that the far side, and possibly the Aitken basin specifically, could have higher concentrations of helium-3. Top Chinese officials have made clear their interest in developing the Moon’s helium-3 resources to power the Earth for thousands of years into the future.

The lunar far side can also open up a com-pletely new window for viewing the universe. The Earth is a very noisy place, especially in certain lower frequencies of radio waves, making it impossible to ob-serve the low-frequency ra-dio sky from the Earth or from near Earth orbit. This is the last major, unexplored region of the electromagnetic spectrum in terms of imag-ing the universe, and it can uniquely be opened up from the lunar far side, where ob-

servation systems would be shielded from the Earth’s radio noise. Again, China is making the first steps towards exploiting this window by in-cluding low-frequency radio observation systems on the 2018 Chang’e 4 far side landing mission.

China’s lunar exploration program—which also includes sample returns as part of the Chang’e 5 and Chang’e 6 missions—is laying the ground-work for the fulfillment of Ehricke’s vision for the permanent development of the Moon.

Russia, long having declared its interest in a permanent lunar base, is accelerating its efforts to develop a new “super heavy-lift rocket,” capa-ble of bringing manned missions to the Moon, a capability that hasn’t existed since Apollo’s Saturn V rocket. Russia’s first systems could be ready as soon as the early 2020s, and China is looking at the early 2030s for the readiness of its own super heavy-lift rocket system.

Chinese scientists are also working on a fea-sibility study for a manned radar station on the near side of the Moon, capable of generating high-intensity beams that can reach the Earth and be reflected back to the lunar station. This will provide unique data on Earth’s extreme weather conditions, global earthquake activity, the polar ice caps, and more.

Other plans for manned lunar development are either in the works or being discussed, including by the head of the European Space Agency. At last, under the leading efforts of China and Russia, the beginnings of Ehricke’s vision appear to be on the horizon.

As Krafft Ehricke declared, “Our work in space will change Earth’s present closed world environ-ment into an open one with access to vast space resources and other critically needed benefits that will greatly improve the lives of all people, and preserve Earth at its best—as man’s home and gar-den for the maximum human future.”

These goals, which define a common mission for the progress of all mankind, cannot be ac-complished in a paradigm defined by the threat of thermonuclear war, ongoing economic break-down, and the bestialization of human beings. Only through the forming of a new paradigm and the opening of the age of reason will we come to fully realize our truly human potential.

Mozart’s Assassins Are Dead, But Mozart, Like Mankind, Is Immortal

by Dennis Speed

Mozart’s Requiem is the needed antidote to the in-human politics of the moment. Mozart, the political enemy of the dying oligarchies of Europe, and an admirer of the American Revolution, immortalized himself against the killers that poisoned him. It is said that Beethoven once referred to the Requiem as “not a mass for the dead, but for the living.” The New York City Schiller Institute Community Chorus has based its advocacy of the Requiem, performed at the Verdi tuning, on precisely this hypothesis.

Although the 28 pages of the 2002 Joint Con-gressional Inquiry into 9/11 were finally released this past July, the people of New York City and the United States are still traumatized. The Obama Administration’s commitment to war and killing prevents any meaningful solidarity or reconcili-ation among citizens. “When madness rules the state, murder walks the land.”

In contrast, the modest but successful assembly of numbers of citizens, non-professional singers primarily, through the Schiller Institute New York City Community Chorus, to master the principles of Mozart’s Requiem, including both its study and performance, directly addresses and transcends the deepest emotions and fears that are otherwise prone to erupt in irrational violence, often not even understood by its perpetrators.

By study of Classical principles in this way, the citizen can once again find his voice, not merely as an individual, but as a constit-uency. Without developing this capability to educate the emotions, the citizen is in-capable of self-government, no matter how strongly he or she may feel about issues.

The Manhattan Project of Lyndon LaRouche has emphasized that the return to mass-based choral singing, starting in New York City and eventually spreading nationally, is probably the only efficient way to return the voice of

the American people to its citizens. Classical composers Brahms and Dvorak, as well as others earlier, including Beethoven, knew this. They sought to advance the liberating power of Classical music in the lives of recently freed citizens in Europe and the United States through the advanced techniques of Classical composition.

The Requiem of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, written in 1791, was a great moment in human discovery. During that year, prior to commencing work on the Requiem, Mozart had already writ-ten the operas La Clemenza di Tito and The Mag-ic Flute, the String Quintet in E Flat, the Clarinet Concerto in A, two pieces for Ben Franklin’s glass harmonica, and many songs. He had stated to his wife no later than October of that same year that he believed he was being poisoned.

For Mozart, however, death was swallowed up in victory. His student Süssmayr, to whom he had given meticulous instructions, as well as sketches as to how to complete the Requiem, did so. “If Mo-zart did not write the music, then the man who wrote it was a Mozart,” Beethoven is reported to have said. The Requiem was performed at the fu-nerals of Beethoven, Haydn and Chopin.

For the American people, and New York City in particular, however, the Requiem can today perform a special service. More than 1500 per-sons are being recruited to the several choruses that the Schiller Institute New York City Commu-nity Chorus has pledged itself to found and de-velop as a living memorial to the immortality of Mozart, as well as to those murdered on Septem-ber 11, 2001, and those murdered afterwards all over the world—in drone strikes, irregular war-

fare, sanctions, and retaliation against people and nations that had little or nothing to do with that horrible crime.

LaRouche’s Manhattan Project, which encom-passes the choral principle as well as the devel-opment of the New Presidency, centers around the true significance of the real Alexander Ham-ilton—not the Broadway musical Hamilton, but the Washington-Hamilton Presidency. Hamilton’s four great Treasury reports did not define a set of economic measures as such. They proclaimed that the productivity of the nation must be based, not on slavery, usury, or free trade, but on the dis-coveries and inventions of the individual creative mind as the source of wealth, as the driver, the characteristic of all truly human physical produc-tion. A policy equivalent to Mozart’s.

Total rejection of the Broadway musical’s vir-tual-reality in favor of the classical Hamiltonian placement of the American political voice is nec-essary to achieve that which is uniquely available through the principle of Mozart’s Requiem, i.e. the creation of a new American chorus upon which our republic depends.

As with Hamilton, Mozart’s triumph over his own mortality sounds the certain trumpet of hu-manity’s true mission. Mozart’s assassins are dead, but Mozart, like mankind, is immortal.
