Jan. 4—In a process springing from the efforts of the International Peace Coalition, Helga Zepp-LaRouche participated in a dialogue among religious leaders and activists to discuss the urgent need to prevent the expanding Israel-Gaza conflict from exploding into regional and global war. |
Whatever credibility the Unipolar Order had has been ripped away by its hypocrisy in defense of the looting by the imperial cartels through war. |
The escalation of conflicts into war is a staple of British geopolitics; the modern form of permanent war is the neocon Wolfowitz Doctrine. |
Jan. 3—The British colonial playbook is fairly predictable. If a war they launched is in danger of winding down or moving towards negotiations, they blow the situation up with the most offensive geopolitical provocation imaginable. They taunt their enemy and use targeted violence to try to force him to retaliate in kind. |

The majority of citizens – including in the TransAtlantic region – are fed up with war and depression to defend the western imperial Military-Financial Complex. |
Join Helga Zepp-LaRouche in her first weekly Live- Dialogue in 2024, on Jan. 3, 11 am EDT, and help to ring in the year of the New Paradigm for all of mankind. |
Jan. 2—Yesterday, in her New Year’s evaluation discussed with members of the LaRouche Movement, the international philosophical association founded by her husband Lyndon LaRouche, Helga Zepp-LaRouche reminded the participants that 2023 had effectively demonstrated, particularly through the BRICS-Plus process, that “the age of colonialism for sure is ending, and a new world economic system is emerging in the form of the global majority, which is much larger than the BRICS-Plus.” |

Jan. 1—There have not been many, if any, years that began as tumultuously as the current one. As 2024 commences, we see wars across the globe, indescribable amounts of suffering and destruction, combined with dysfunctional governments and institutions at every turn. Despite how dramatic these events may seem, they are actually less significant than the much larger process which they betray: The end of the modern neocolonial world system. As EIR has pointed out since the 1970s proposal of Lyndon LaRouche’s International Development Bank idea as the core of a new, anti-colonialist system, this process is the actual play on the stage of history, despite most others’ failure to recognize this fact. |
Jan 1st—Can the Ten Principles of a New International Strategic and Development Architecture offer a “New Deal” to the world? Can they be studied, accepted and implemented while there is yet still time to do so? |
Dec. 30—The NATO belligerence against Russia using Ukraine as its proxy crossed the red line today when Ukraine deployed NATO weapons (from Czechia) to strike Belgorod, Russia, killing at least 18, and wounding 108 people. The strike took place in mid-afternoon, local time. Cluster munitions were used, and Vampire missiles, made in Czechia. The strike focused on the city center, hitting a number of sites including the medical college of the state university, and the public ice rink in use. |
Dec. 29—The enormous amounts of money, time, resources, and human labor and ingenuity wasted annually in military expenses is mind-boggling. Maintaining a foreign policy based on hegemonism and domination brings destruction across the world, and decay at home. |

Dec. 28—The daily news is increasingly reading like an obituary for the Western world, with more new failures, embarrassments, or flat-out disasters occurring. On Dec. 27, the Biden Administration announced yet another funding package for Ukraine, despite the well-known fact that that conflict cannot be won and has been a catastrophe for Ukraine and NATO countries as a whole. The White House is now looking for a way out of this, as is discussed in a recent article in Politico, given that Ukraine is running out of troops and matériel, and the U.S. is running out of political support. |
War and economic misery are not the predetermined fate of mankind, but the result of power in the hands of those who benefit from an imperial order backed by millitary force. |
Dec. 27—Next week, Russia assumes the presidency of the BRICS for 2024, and five new countries—Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates—assume full membership on January 1. The Atlantic Council has already established a so-called “Dollar Dominance Monitor,” reflecting their central fear, the inescapable moves of the BRICS-10 to de-dollarize, and to make financial arrangements around actual trade in the physical economy. The fantasy game of a dollar, issued by a country with $34 trillion of debt—and debt rising at an increasing rate—is over. Time to cut up the country’s credit cards. |
With BRICS expansion moving ahead on January 1, Anglo-American corporate cartels have identified this as a threat to their weakened Unipolar Order. |

Dec. 25—Read below excerpts of the searing sermon delivered on Dec. 23, 2023 by the Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac, pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Christmas Church in Bethlehem. Dr. Isaac, a Palestinian Christian pastor and theologian, designed and placed a now-famous creche of Christ in the Rubble in his church, and was part of a delegation of religious leaders from Bethlehem who visited Washington, D.C. in late November carrying an open letter to President Biden and U.S. congressmen demanding: “We want a constant and comprehensive ceasefire. Enough death. Enough destruction.” |
Dec. 26—“In practically all the major countries in the world that today are developing successfully—above all India, and China—there are partisans of LaRouche. They have used his thoughts and ideas, for creating their economic miracles. It is the principles of Physical Economy championed by LaRouche, that today underlie the Chinese economic miracle and are there in the foundations of India’s economic policy…” |
After the destruction wrought by 10,000+ tons of munitions in Gaza, Netanyahu and his extremist supporters are pushing "voluntary migration" of Palestinians. |
Dec. 24—On this day when Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, there is little jubilation in that city. The usually festive marches in town are canceled for more somber statements about the terrible destruction the Palestinians are currently experiencing, in Israel’s self-destructive overreaction to the Hamas attack of Oct. 7 from Gaza. |
Dec. 22—Only today did a resolution finally pass the United Nations Security Council, addressed to relieving the catastrophe in Gaza. The resolution does not call for a ceasefire, but only “to create conditions for sustainable cessation of hostilities”—wording pre-approved by the U.S. after days of haggling. Other measures in the 16 points of action address expediting humanitarian aid. The resolution passed 13 in favor, with two abstentions—the U.S. and Russia (for very different reasons). |
Dec. 23—Countries that have committed great wrongs have had to undergo a process of redemption to regain their moral status in the community of nations. Germany following World War II and South Africa following apartheid come to mind. The United States, by standing essentially alone in the world in support of the barbaric destruction of Gaza by Israel, is consigning itself to an infamy that will outlast—by how long, we wonder—the United States’ profoundly necessary reconciliation. |
