We face a double crisis today: The stage is set in Southwest Asia, centered on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—backed to the hilt by the United States, for regional escalation to world war; and there is also the crack-up of the Western casino-financial system, which, unless replaced, means financial-economic chaos.

In reviewing the double crisis with associates today, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, leader of the Schiller Institute, called for voices and forces to come forward, visibly and strongly, to mobilize to counter these threats, and make way for a new course. An invitation is going out soon for a special session on Aug. 9 of the International Peace Coalition, to augment world initiatives for diplomacy, peace and development.

There are forces in motion. For example, tomorrow is the commemoration of the Aug. 6, 1945, dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, 79 years ago, a needless action of mass destruction. There are demonstrations for peace set in many locations around the world this week. Likewise, focussed on the UN General Assembly, there is the mobilization of multiple groups seeking for the UNGA to intervene with forces to stop the genocide in Gaza, under the power of the UN Resolution 377, “Uniting for Peace.”

Zepp-LaRouche noted that if the United States would stop its backing for the Israeli genocide in Gaza and the Israeli assassinations and attacks on Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran, the world’s prospects would improve immediately and drastically. This is a profound responsibility of Americans to face and undertake.

We are in a world red-alert situation. The other part of the picture is indicated in today’s stock exchange drama. Japan’s Nikkei index fell more than on Black Monday 1987. On Wall Street, the Dow closed down over 1030 points. The Nasdaq dropped 3%. European exchanges saw big drops. There are several proximate “causes” for this, but the principal feature of the Western financial instability is the disconnect between the money and speculation side, and the physical economic side. The U.S., the German and other Western economies are physically breaking down. Meantime, the “paper” demands in debts and derivatives of all kinds are out of sight. Researcher Ellen Brown reported global derivatives valuation may be in the range of $610 trillion (Bank for International Settlements) to up to even $3.7 quadrillion.

These threats—economic breakdown and warfare—cross feed each other. The London, Wall Street, Washington, Brussels political complex is the same as the NATO military complex, and economic/financial complex. This reality means that there is no possibility of solving one “issue”—however important, without facing the whole, big picture.

Zepp-LaRouche, terming the whole reality a red-alert situation, said, “Either we get a new paradigm, or we are on a journey to Hell.” We need to mobilize opposition. Make it visible. Intervene to support the emergency formation of a world Council of Reason. The invitation to the 62nd meeting of the International Peace Coalition is headlined, “Final Call Before World War Three—Or First Steps to a New Peace Paradigm?
