Oct. 26, 2024 (EIRNS)—With the title, “Build a Peace Chorus Against the Ghouls of War,” the combined independent campaigns of Jose Vega and Diane Sare hosted a public event in New York City on the afternoon of Saturday, Oct. 26. |
Oct. 30—The continuing slaughter in Gaza is increasingly being denounced around the world, while the U.S. and most of Europe are blindly supporting Israel “right or wrong.” People are told they must take sides: if you support Israel, you must support the genocide of the Palestinian people; or, if you support Gaza, you must be a terrorist or a terrorist supporter. |
Dominique de Villepin described the “traps” we set for ourselves of vengeance which begets more vengeance, in the Oct. 27 interview with BFM TV. |
Aug. 20—The BRICS Summit will be held Aug. 22 through Aug. 24 this week in Johannesburg, South Africa. Attending in person will be all the leaders of the five BRICS members, except Vladimir Putin, who was threatened with an arrest by the imperial powers if he traveled there, for the “crime” of saving children from Ukrainian shelling of their homes in the Donbass. He will attend by live video. |
Aug. 13—The world is observing two diametrically opposite approaches to preparing the next era of mankind. The failed colonial and neo-colonial system is frantically trying to preserve the “unipolar world” under U.S.-U.K. leadership, through provoking wars wherever possible, while the BRICS countries and the overwhelming majority of nations in the “Global South” are preparing to end colonialism once and for all, while building a new era of cooperation in scientific and industrial development of all nations. |
Africa is the center of the greatest transformation in modern history. The end of the colonial era is in the making. |
July 23—While the war in Ukraine is being escalated through the newly deployed U.S. anti-personnel cluster bombs, together with billions of dollars from the IMF/World Bank institutions (which were designed to build countries, rather than to blow them up), the U.S. and its NATO allies are also carrying out the largest military exercise in decades in Australia, demonstrating their intent to create a “Global NATO,” capable of waging war on China in addition to their war on Russia. |
July 16—In the week following the NATO Summit in Vilnius, in which not one participant even mentioned an idea about a negotiated peaceful solution to the current war in Ukraine, while multiple plans for full-scale war with Russia and China were discussed in detail, it is not surprising that the leading press sewers in the U.S. contributed new extensive proposals for all-out military and economic warfare against Russia and China. |
July 2—The Anglo-Americans are preparing for their NATO Summit next week, with the intention to save the disintegrating war against Russia in Ukraine while expanding the “North Atlantic” treaty into Asia. With the world buzzing with reports on the failure of Ukraine’s much-heralded “counter-offensive,” an open discussion of a nuclear conflict between the U.S. and Russia is replacing the happy-talk about Ukraine “winning” the un-winnable war. |
The second meeting of the International Peace Coalition, was held today |
May 28—The Biden government today denounced China’s tit-for-tat response to the U.S. illegal ban on Chinese purchase of U.S.-manufactured microchips—policies which typically do more harm to U.S. businesses than to China. China on May 21 banned certain Chinese companies from purchasing chips from the U.S. company Micron, the world’s largest chip producer. U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, following a meeting in Detroit of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework, an explicitly anti-China group set up by the Biden administration, said of the ban on Micron chips in China: “We see it as plain and simple economic coercion and we won’t tolerate it.” The U.S. is also actively trying to prevent cooperation with China by Brazil and Argentina to counter the economic coercion by the U.S. and the IMF against the South American countries. |
Sept. 24—For once, a European mainstream publication
has written the truth! Weltwoche, the Swiss website with news and
interviews, published an editorial under the above title. |
Sept. 17—Although the physical economy and the standard of living across the trans-Atlantic region are in a severe breakdown crisis, while the NATO countries are dragging the world into World War III, there are increasing signs of sanity and resistance showing through the fog, as trade unions, business associations, farmers, and social organizations are coming out to the streets, asserting that they will not tolerate the intentional destruction of their nations’ productive capacities and their standards of living. As Helga Zepp-LaRouche said in her keynote speech at the September 10-11 Schiller Institute Conference, the peaceful revolution in East Germany that led to the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the reunification of Germany demonstrated that if ten people demonstrate in the street, they can be arrested, but not if there are hundreds of thousands. |
Sept. 3—There is an obvious and disgusting connection between recent mass shootings and assassinations which has been systemically censored from the accounts by the mainstream media: The Christchurch slaughter of over 50 Muslim New Zealanders in March 2019; the young Buffalo gunman killing 10 Black Americans in May 2022; and the attempted assassination of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, the Vice President and former President of Argentina, on Sept. 1. The media accounts have noted that the mass killers and assassins have all had Nazi tattoos on their bodies—the “Black Sun” (Schwarze Sonne) worn by the Nazi SS and the Wolfsangel adopted by the Nazis—as well as links to Nazi and neo-Nazi articles and websites on their social media accounts. What these media accounts leave out is that such Nazi symbols are found all over the Azov Regiment and other Nazi organizations in Ukraine, as tattoos and decorations on their uniforms and flags. |
The Central Bankers of the western world gathered at Jackson Hole Wyoming for their annual confab last week, faced with an escalating hyperinflationary collapse of the entire dollar-based western financial system. |
Aug. 27—Consider first the following reports from Russia and China—the two nations designated by Western so-called “leaders” as “autocracies” which threaten “our values”—on ongoing national problem-solving. |
Aug. 25—EIR published extensive documentation before and after the February 2014 “Maidan” coup proving that the driving forces behind that “color revolution,” openly sponsored and orchestrated by the Obama Administration’s Victoria Nuland and Vice President Joe Biden, were the proud followers of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi colleague in Ukraine, Stepan Bandera, and the various offshoots of the British-spawned Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). See British Imperial Project in Ukraine: Violent Coup, Fascist Axioms, Neo-Nazis. |
Aug. 25—It appears that the massive outcry against the effort to create a “Ministry of Truth” within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has finally forced them to shut down the stillborn “Disinformation Governance Board,” first established in April 2022. The initial appointment as Director of the Board the psychotic Nina Jankowicz, a disinformation “expert” who made her name describing any truthful statement countering the narrative of “Ukraine good, Russia bad” as disinformation, while describing the exposure of Hunter Biden’s laptops as “Russian disinformation,” caused an uproar across the country, forcing her to resign and the institution to be put on pause. Nonetheless, they tried to keep it afloat with new leaders until now. |
Mike Billington interviews Col. Richard H. Black (ret.) on the Ukraine Center for Countering Disinformation board hit list, the Ukraine war and his thoughts about the Schiller Institute's role in today's crisis. |
Aug. 20—In honor of the 75th Anniversary of India’s Independence on August 15, 1947, Helga Zepp-LaRouche today addressed a Schiller Institute forum in tribute to that Anniversary. |
Aug. 18—The following letter to the Chair, Ranking Member, and Members of six Congressional Committees is being delivered on Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022. A full mobilization of citizens to demand that their representatives take action on this matter is urgent: |
Aug. 14—“We are at the edge of war with Russia and China on issues which we partly created, without any concept of how this is going to end or what it’s supposed to lead to.” These are the words of Henry Kissinger in a Wall Street Journal interview published on Aug. 12. |
Aug. 13—Today’s release of the search warrant approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland to raid the home of former President Donald Trump on Aug. 8 has confirmed that this has nothing to do with classified documents. Rather, it has everything to do with an out-of-control Department of Justice and its national police force, the FBI, openly and proudly announcing to the world that the United States is no longer a Republic, serving “the people,” but a police state, rapidly descending into fascism. |
Your daily update from Mike Billington for Tuesday, August 9. |
Aug. 6—The Hindu, one of India’s leading “newspapers of record,” the second-largest circulation English-language paper in the country published daily since 1889, today reported on the Schiller Institute’s strategy for securing global peace and development, and how it grew out of decades of organizing by Lyndon and Helga LaRouche, including their many ties to India itself. |
