July 1, 2024 (EIRNS)—Last week’s U.S. presidential debate showed beyond the shadow of a doubt that the post-World War II order is in a state of final collapse. The show might go on for a while longer, like the chicken whose head has been severed yet continues to run around, but there is little life left in the corpse to do much more than keep up appearances. Not only is there clearly no one home in the person of the President of the United States, but the entire political and otherwise ruling establishment has covered this up for months and even years, all the while preaching about such platitudes as “democracy,” “accountability,” and “honesty” to the rest of the world. |
June 27, 2024 (EIRNS)—An important and powerful warning was communicated in the alternative debate hosted by Independent candidate for President Robert Kennedy, Jr., which was live-streamed simultaneously as the Trump vs Biden debate this evening. In response to Trump’s comments that we are facing World War III because of President Biden’s actions around the world, Kennedy said, to an X live-stream of over 5 million viewers: |
June 27, 2024 (EIRNS)—This evening’s CNN presidential debate showed the glaring reality staring us all in the face today: The needed change to today’s existential crisis is not going to come from the political leadership in either of the two leading parties in the United States. Choose one that is “better” if you want, but only so long as you’re willing to risk the potential extinction of mankind for your preferred political “flavor.” The reality is that only a new idea, which challenges the disastrously failing ideologies of today’s trans-Atlantic world, can stand a chance of pulling us back from the brink of a threatened global war. |
June 25, 2024 (EIRNS)—Anyone paying attention to the string of events in and around Ukraine will see the dangerous escalation which it represents. Western countries, previously more restrained, have increasingly supplied heavier and longer-range weapons to Ukraine to fight—and kill—Russians. At each step of the way, Russia’s leaders have raised concerns, sounded alarm bells, and emphasized that Washington and others are crossing deep, dark, red lines in an overt war against their nation. However, at each step, these same Western countries have feigned indifference, and continued their escalations. |
June 20, 2024 (EIRNS)—The recent string of reckless NATO escalations in Ukraine, including the failed “peace summit” in Switzerland, were aimed in large part at goading Russia to react in anger, and perhaps even launch a nuclear weapon against Ukraine, thereby eliciting global condemnation. However, not only has Russia refused to take the bait, but Russian officials and President Putin in particular have now gone on the offensive, and outflanked the Anglo-American imperialists yet again. |
June 16, 2024 (EIRNS)—The Western-led events over the previous days have only further underscored the dangerous situation the world finds itself in—between the moral and political bankruptcy of Western countries and at the same time their assertion of unilateral dominance. The “Summit for Peace in Ukraine” held in Switzerland over the weekend is now the latest charade to have flopped, despite the enormous fanfare in the runup to it. Aside from the fact that few of the leading non-Western countries in the world sent high-level delegations, with even fewer of those agreeing to sign the final joint statement, it was widely acknowledged during the weekend’s proceedings that no progress can be made without Russia’s participation. |
June 11, 2024 (EIRNS)—Last week’s St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) made it clear that the talk of a new paradigm among nations is concretely coming into existence. Nearly 1,000 deals were signed among the event’s 21,000 participants and 3,500 companies, who came from a total of 139 countries. |
June 4, 2024 (EIRNS)—On Tuesday, one day after being prevented from boarding a plane and after having his passport seized by U.S. border patrol, former U.S. Marine and UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter said the following on Judge Andrew Napolitano’s “Judging Freedom” show: |
June 1, 2024 (EIRNS)—At NATO’s meeting of Foreign Ministers Friday, May 31, it was as if a competition was held as to who could pound one’s chest the hardest in threatening Russia and China. Western leaders, after suddenly discovering that their eloquent speeches about Ukraine’s impending victory are doing nothing to win the war, are now in a desperate scramble to save a Ukrainian army on the edge of defeat. |
May 25, 2024 (EIRNS)—Over the course of Wednesday night and Thursday morning [May 22-23], Ukrainian drones struck the Armavir Radar Station in Russia’s southwestern Krasnodar Krai region, a part of Russia’s early warning radar system designed to detect an incoming ICBM attack. This radar is one of the pillars in Russia’s nuclear posture system which, along with other such installations, plays an existential role in the strategic security of the Russian Federation. Far beyond escalating tensions with Ukraine alone, this attack has now brought the world another step closer to the verge of a thermonuclear war. |
May 19—The downing of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi’s helicopter on Sunday, May 19 has put the world on pins and needles. Early on Monday morning (May 20) Tehran time, Iranian state media has announced that President Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian and everyone else on the helicopter were dead. The news followed an hours-long search through the rain and fog, which included dozens of search teams from multiple nations. |
March 12—The evidence of the collapsing Anglo-American world system is everywhere one looks, cautioning anyone who would dare follow its dictates to urgently reconsider. The most recent example of this is taking place in Haiti, where rebel gangs have seized control of the capital, Port-au-Prince, and threaten to bring the entire nation spiraling into an abyss. Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry announced his resignation Monday, March 11, following increasing pressure from the gangs. However, assigning blame to either of the so-called “factions” in the country is a fool’s errand. Rather, the cause must be found outside, in the overriding system that has doomed Haiti to its current tragic state. |
March 8—As this publication has repeatedly insisted, the world is now standing closer than ever before to the outbreak of a civilization-ending war among the world’s superpowers. This danger has only been increasing as geopolitical blindness and a belief in the supremacy of the “rules-based order” is pushing Western officials increasingly into a direct conflict with Russia. Nations like Finland and Sweden have now joined NATO, bringing that military alliance up to Russia’s border, while the largest military exercises since the end of World War II are now ongoing, for the first time modeling a response to a theoretical attack by Russia on a NATO country. |
March 3—There is a dangerous escalation of events taking place around the world which, if not stopped, are quickly bringing the world to the brink of a nuclear world war. The leaked audio file of German military officials conspiring around an increased German role in military operations—not just in Ukrainian territory but in Russia—has significantly changed the situation, and has given the lie to claims by Western leaders that they are trying to avoid a direct war with Russia. |
Feb. 26—The world is entering the most dangerous period in modern history, and all stops are being pulled out in order to prevent a shift from taking place. There is a countdown to world war, and more people must be awakened to the danger and given a sense of how to resolve it. |
Feb. 24—The world is rapidly approaching multiple points of crisis, all of which require a transformation in orientation and axioms. In the case of NATO’s escalations against Russia, epitomized by the hysteria over supposed Russian nuclear weapons being deployed to space, a further wedge is being driven between any future relationship between Russia and the West. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov ridiculed the hype around the outer space weapons as “absurd,” and said that it is becoming impossible to communicate with the U.S. about almost anything, given the U.S.’s flagrant lies. |
Feb. 22—The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has already warned that Israel is in grave danger of committing a genocide in Gaza—and that was before the threatened invasion of Rafah, the only remaining safe zone for Gaza’s refugees. The leaders of 18 humanitarian aid organizations have now issued a statement warning of “mass casualties” if Israel proceeds with its ground invasion. This reality is increasingly clear to the world, yet this still has not stopped Israel and its supporters from moving ahead. |
LaRouche’s insights are needed more than ever today. When all the pieces are broken, it’s time for a new architecture overall. |
Feb. 20—Everybody knows that electoral politics in the United States is a fraud, and likely has been so ever since 9/11. The façade of a free and open debate among the leading political contenders mocks the reality of what is a thoroughly-controlled and deeply-corrupt political establishment, which fights to keep the most qualified candidates out, and to degrade the ones who are let in. |
Feb. 11—Wars do not begin out of nowhere, as if manifested instantaneously by the firing of a bullet at the wrong target. Simplistic stories like this are only used as tools for swaying public opinion, such as in the case of the current absurd notion that the ongoing war in Gaza began on October 7, 2023. To the contrary, wars, and history generally, are part of a dynamic process which must be understood as a whole—at least if you would like to get out from under the slavish manipulations consciously being deployed against you. |
Feb. 6—If historians will have the opportunity to look back on the human race in 2024, they will undoubtedly identify this period as a defining moment in history. No, not because of a showdown between “democracy” and “autocracy,” nor over “liberal” versus “traditional” values. Nor because of a “culture war” or a fight over our national or personal identities. This moment will be a defining period because it’s the end of a system which can no longer continue to exist, no matter which culture, ideology, or political system takes power. The oligarchical system is dying, and resistance to it, along with a passionate commitment to build a better future, is growing. |
Jan. 29—Last week’s International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling in The Hague has put the world dynamic into stark relief. It was always a misnomer to discuss the war in Gaza as merely an issue of Israel’s occupation and the ensuing response to that by Hamas. While that certainly plays a factor, it is a managed factor, a mere player on the stage of a poorly-directed drama. But it is directed, nonetheless. |

Jan. 22—“We are in a period of tectonic changes, and when you are in a period of the collapse of one system and the emergence of a new one, the rules of the so-called ‘rules-based order’ somehow don’t function anymore. The method of manipulation of the population is quickly reaching the point which Lincoln talked about, that you cannot fool all the people all of the time, and this is one of those moments coming true.” |
Jan. 17—After over 100 days of carnage in Gaza, wherein the Biden Administration has performed never-before-seen acrobatics in their attempts to defend Israel’s brutal assault on Palestinians, Secretary of State Blinken finally let the truth slip out. During a panel discussion at the Davos World Economic Forum Wednesday, Jan. 17, Blinken admitted that U.S. policy in Southwest Asia is not actually to defend Israel’s security interests, it’s certainly not to defend Palestinians or a two-state solution, and it’s not to help the region as a whole to develop economically and improve the quality of life of its people. Rather, it is simply to isolate Iran, and play the game of geopolitics in attempting to maintain the image of “American leadership.” |
