Peace On Earth, Or Humanity’s Doom? The Case for Negotiations 

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s remarks made last Friday, Dec. 9, in the wake of former German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s admission that the 2015 Minsk Agreements regarding Ukraine were never intended to be upheld, have sent shock waves throughout the world. Putin said, “If Russia does not use nuclear weapons first, it won’t use them second, either,” and that perhaps Russia should abandon its policy of “no first use” of nuclear weapons and adopt the U.S. policy of “first strike” thermonuclear war. (The US policy, it should be noted, also allows for fighting war even against powers without nuclear weapons, and even if the United States is not attacked with nuclear weapons.)

Sleepwalkers in America and Europe should wake up. Did you know that “first use against everybody” is the U.S. policy? Do you support that? Do you know that the world has suddenly become more a much more dangerous place than ten days ago. 

Why? The trust between Russia and the United States/NATO has evaporated to the point that, in the words of Helga Zepp-LaRouche, winner of the 2022 Freedom of Expression Award of the national Journalists Club of Mexico, “one more step, even an unintended mistake, one misreading by one side or the other, could trigger the launching of the entire nuclear arsenals of both sides, leading to a global nuclear war, followed by a nuclear winter of about ten years, which would mean that in all likelihood not one human being would survive.” Is all of human history to be held hostage by this folly? 

Join those who say no to war, those who say there is another path, that there are principles of reason and goodness that are more powerful than the hubris of failed empires. The road to peace must be paved “with malice toward none; with charity for all.” What principles must inform the negotiation process among the furiously raging nations? The Saturday symposium, open to all, is intended to discuss “where we go from here.”

Speakers to include: Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder, Schiller Institute; Col. Richard. H. Black (ret.), former head of the U.S. Army’s Criminal Law Division and former Virginia State Senator; and Ray McGovern, former senior analyst, U.S. Central intelligence Agency (CIA), founding member, Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS); Diane Sare, candidate for U.S. Senate from New York; Harley Schlanger, “The LaRouche Organization Daily Update.”

Only Remedy to War Escalation: Intervention for a New World Economic, Security Architecture

June 23, 2025 (EIRNS)—FLASH. U.S. President Donald Trump, at about 6 p.m. local time in Washington, issued a Truth Post reporting that Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire. He began, “CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE!” and wrote that the ceasefire would begin in six hours, and in 12 hours , the “War will be considered ENDED.” The following update, written before that announcement, remains relevant.

Tragedy Need Not Be Destiny

June 22, 2025 (EIRNS)—With the initiation by the United States of war on Iran this weekend, the final military objective of the 2001 “seven countries in five years” plan revealed on March 2, 2007 by Gen. Wesley Clark in an interview with Amy Goodman, the War Party is on the move once again. Journalist Glenn Greenwald pointed out yesterday that “Iran just became the eighth Muslim-majority country that the U.S. has bombed in the last 15 years, from Obama to Trump to Biden to Trump.” The list comprises Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Pakistan, Yemen, and now Iran.
