Nov. 25—Because of the accelerating, not decelerating, pace of what has now been officially characterized by Russia as the NATO-Russia conflict—exactly the war that you were assured we would never get into, but which Russia’s Maria Zakharova has now stated “is a confrontation between Russia and NATO in Ukraine”—we call attention to the first exchange in Helga Zepp-LaRouche’s webcast of today. It is an example of, not an “information-packed briefing,” but of the method of Plato’s Socratic dialogue. The method used is “thinking by negation,” revealing to the listener/questioner that, not only does he/she have the “facts” wrong. More than that, “in fact,” they will never apprehend what is actually going on, no matter how many facts they accumulate, unless they change the way they see the whole world. “How you see the world depends on how you look at it.”

For example, seeing from the bottom up, the “bad infinity” of details about conflicts, parties, ideologies, “rules of law,” crimes and punishments, or from the top down, seeing, not a sea of details, but a complex domain, viewed from the standpoint of an intention, a voluntarily adopted mission to ensure the survival of the entire human race, now confronted with extinction, whether self-induced by war, biologically induced by disease, or both, involves a choice of method. The means for durable survival is knowable, and available. Which path humanity will choose, can be directed, if not determined, by which path each of us chooses. That outlook is the only efficient anti-Malthusian antidote to the folly of the present.

The very survival of the human race may depend on how rapidly those reading what Zepp-LaRouche says here can make others aware, not merely of the solutions the Schiller Institute offers to the accelerating economic self-cannibalization now leading to thermonuclear war; not only of the social and moral self-destruction of “the Anglosphere”; but most importantly, to embrace the Socratic method, by which, in thinking-by-negation, by consciously, willfully changing axioms, by educating the “emotions,” by developing the heart to be, as the mind must become, we may choose to act in the interest of the other, and therefore, ourselves, before it is too late.

Seven Days in June

June 2—Yesterday, Helga Zepp-LaRouche addressed a small international gathering of co-thinkers, representing several different organizations, on the task of finding a way to rapidly change the direction of current history. While there are multiple initiatives for peace, and even for elements of a new strategic architecture, presently being organized through the world, a new element must be added for them to succeed. A “higher peace movement” is required. Immediate joint action, combining the resources of several organizations and many minds, must out-think, and therefore out-organize those that are bringing the world closer to thermonuclear ruin.
