Nov. 6—A groundbreaking conference is taking place this week in Kabul, Afghanistan, that is aiming to help Afghanistan be among the new paradigm of nations seeking a beautiful future of collaboration and economic development. Titled: “Creating the Afghan Economic Miracle,” the conference runs from Nov. 6-8 and has attracted scholars and guests from across Afghanistan as well as from other parts of the world. It is being hosted by the Ibn Sina Research and Development Center. The conference’s stated aim is: “to present a comprehensive plan for the economic reconstruction of the entire country, with the goal to turn Afghanistan into a middle level-income country in the foreseeable future.” |
Nov. 6—Protests reaching into the hundreds of thousands are breaking out around the world in condemnation of the atrocities being perpetrated in Gaza. From London to Paris to Berlin to Washington, D.C., it cannot be explained in terms of already-existing factions or contingencies—something different has been ignited which is only likely to grow as this crisis worsens. |
The "Aura of Power" of the western "elites" is collapsing, due to the failure of their "Permanent War" strategy to force submission to their Unipolar Order. |
Nov. 4—Over 9,500 people have been killed in Gaza to date, of whom 3,900 are children, according to a report issued by the Gaza Health Ministry on Nov. 14. Over the last 24 hours, Netanyahu’s IDF bombed a school in Gaza, killing 20, after hitting an ambulance convoy departing Al Shifa hospital on its way to the Rafah crossing—killing 15 and wounding over 50. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, not known for his radical rhetoric, wrote that he was “horrified” by the attack, and that “the images of bodies strewn on the street outside the hospital are harrowing.” There are reports of additional strikes at the gates of the Al Nasr children’s hospital. |
Nov. 3—“What Is, and To What End, Do We Study Universal History?” That is the name of the famous lecture given by Germany’s greatest poet, and greatest historian, Friedrich Schiller, in Jena in 1789; it is also the essential question to be asked, and answered, by all those who would, even at this late hour, still qualify themselves to quickly but successfully face the moral challenges lying immediately ahead for a humanity that, at least in the trans-Atlantic sector, is fast losing the moral fitness to survive. |

On Nov. 4, 1995, Yitzhak Rabin was murdered by one inspired by the hateful rhetoric of Netanyahu. Such hate drives the killing of children in Gaza today! This will not bring peace! |
Nov. 2—President Biden was confronted by a rabbi last night, who told him: “Mr. President, if you care about Jewish people, as a rabbi, I need you to call for a ceasefire right now.” Biden could not pronounce the word, “ceasefire.” Instead, he prattled about a “pause” to get hostages out, as if the mass killing of Palestinian civilians weren’t the issue, as if the practice of “collective guilt” against innocents wasn’t destroying the Jewish people, destroying their souls, their culture, their identity. |
Nov. 1—What the suffering world now needs is a Peace of Westphalia-type, new security architecture, based on mutual economic benefit, or the thrashing old order will blow out with no replacement by anything at all, except chaos and doom. |
As the West remains committed to genocidal wars and failed neoliberalism, its economies are shaking, and an alternative system is arising |
Many nations have loudly proclaimed that the ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza must not be interrupted with a cease-fire, because “Israel has the right to defend itself.” They have avoided asking the question: “since Israel has the right to defend itself, why didn’t it do so on October 7?” |
Oct. 31—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stringently defended his nation’s brutal assault on Palestinian civilians with the justification that the wrong committed by Hamas on Oct. 7 allowed for it. This is clearly a disingenuous manipulation of words to justify a horrific act, and many have pointed out that there have been a long train of abuses by Israel going back decades that must be taken into consideration, in order to resolve the current crisis. Further, a former Israeli Foreign Minister has said that this reconciliation must actually go back to at least 1948, with the beginning of the founding of Israel, and the expulsion of Arabs in former British Palestine from their lands. But consider: Can going back to any of these prior wrongs committed solve the current crisis? |
Biden administration pushes Congress to pass an additional $105 billion package, though the U.S. deficit is over $33 trillion; neocons on board! |
October 29, 2023—As you are reading this, the ethnic
cleansing and depopulation campaign already under
way in Gaza may be about to, or may already have, triggered
a region-wide war in Southwest Asia, in which the
whole world could rapidly, “unintentionally,” become
involved. |
The horror unfolding in Southwest Asia today is the Bernard Lewis Plan in action: the deliberate promotion of religious strife and bloodshed throughout the region to produce the most bestial on both sides. |
Oct. 30—To understand what’s taking place in Gaza, put the region in context. |
It's not just the funding of the War Machine that is robbing you; it is the loss of the moral high ground due to the corruption and wars of the U.S. and NATO. |
Oct. 29—The following is the Introduction to the emergency pamphlet being issued by The LaRouche Organization on the civilization-threatening crisis in Southwest Asia, and the conceptual means for its resolution, devised and promoted four decades ago by the late economist and statesman Lyndon LaRouche: |
The vote for a ceasefire in Gaza in the UNGA demonstrates the majority of nations oppose the War Hawks' wars to protect their world empire. |
Dominique de Villepin described the “traps” we set for ourselves of vengeance which begets more vengeance, in the Oct. 27 interview with BFM TV. |
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. |
Oct. 28—There are three dramatic updates this weekend: The escalation of attacks on Gaza to new depths of horror; the world upsurge of millions of people in protest against allowing this horror to continue; and the Western battle forces massing in Southwest Asia, which constitute war preparation, not “deterrence.” |
Oct. 27—This afternoon at the UN General Assembly in New York, the 193 nation body voted 120-14, with 45 abstentions, in favor of a resolution calling for a humanitarian truce, toward a ceasefire in Gaza-Israel. The vote and resolution, though non-binding, expresses the assertion by the world’s Global Majority of a desire for compassion and reason, and love of humanity, to supplant the compulsive evil now involved in warmaking in multiple theaters. The vote is a clear rejection of the position of the Global Minority—the U.S., the Anglosphere and Global NATO. The resolution calls for an “immediate, durable and sustained humanitarian truce,” the release of the hostages, and work towards a ceasefire. The resolution condemns “all acts of violence aimed at Palestinian and Israeli civilians.” |

Oct. 26—Russian President Vladimir Putin met in the Kremlin on Oct. 25 with eight of Russia’s top religious leaders, representing the Christian, Muslim, Jewish, and Buddhist faiths. Putin denounced the terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas on Oct. 7, as well as the unconscionable Israeli response of destroying all of Gaza based on “the notorious principle of collective responsibility,” and delivered a very sharp warning to the entire world: “Further escalation of the [Israel-Palestine] crisis poses a risk of severe and highly dangerous and destructive consequences … [that] can spill far beyond the borders of the Middle East.” |
