Helga Zepp-LaRouche (Germany), Schiller Institute founder, EIR Editor-in-Chief will interview Ray McGovern (US) former Senior Analystat, U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and a Founding Member, Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) on the Epstein scandal to discuss whether it means that man is evil?

The specter of Jeffery Epstein’s files is now stalking the highest echelons of the Western establishment, lurking, waiting to terminate the imagined honor of its next victim. The British establishment may be temporarily taking the lead, with the second member of Prime Minister Starmer’s government having resigned in just 48 hours. All the while, new efforts are being made in the U.S. Congress to un-redact the names on the existing 3-plus million files released, as well as to release the remaining millions of documents.

In discussion with associates today, Helga Zepp-LaRouche described the situation as “pre-revolutionary”—not only in the U.S. and Europe, but across the whole world. The Epstein revelations are only “the tip of the iceberg,” she said, because they actually are pointing to the “unbelievable moral decay and corruption of the Western system, especially the Western elites.” This will tend to have the effect of breaking people out of their fearful paralysis which has dominated over the recent period, thrusting them to confront the ugly realities that lay under the proverbial floorboards.

Zepp-LaRouche likened the process to “an avalanche which is not going to be stopped, because it has now reached its own dynamic of completely ripping down the entire system.” The question is how the remaining, hopefully thoughtful, members of society will respond to this pre-revolutionary situation, and whether we will muster the courage to not only replace the disgraced leaders, but also their Satanic worldview and policy framework as well.

Lyndon LaRouche, whose political assassination was repeatedly attempted by the types of creatures now highlighted among Epstein’s friends, provided a useful perspective on this during remarks to a gathering of youth in 2004:

“Now this comes to the question of how do you assess your life? Do you assess your life as bookends, and you exist only between the bookends? And therefore you have to make a pleasant reading between the bookends? Each page must be pleasure and comfort and satisfaction?…

“Or, knowing that this is the nature of man, that you are born and die, are going to die sooner or later, is it how you spend your life and to what effect for humanity that counts? All of the effective people in history were people who did that. They made that choice. They had a conception of birth and death as sort of the bookends of mortality. But they also saw in themselves something which is more than mortality. The ability to discover truth, to discover principles of the universe, to introduce these to humanity. To pass them on to humanity to be used by present or by future generations for the benefit of mankind, in the sense that you live in creating the future of mankind. You live by bringing forth from the past. You correct the injustices of the past. Truth was fought for in the past by civilizations that were crushed, by people that were crushed. When you do something to bring justice to the dead, even thousands of years later, you are doing something that makes your life important. Because you’re not only bringing justice to them, you’re preserving and putting into perspective the importance of what they did for tomorrow.”
