While the mainstream media is focused on censoring real news, and increasing polarization around hot-button issues, there are significant strategic developments occurring: —Meetings of Afghanistan’s neighbors to help build an economy, to prevent a dissolution into civil war, starvation and drug production;—China’s development of a hypersonic, low-orbit glide vehicle, which caught western intelligence by surprise;—a new report on how wild liquidity pumping by central banks is behind accelerating inflation, and how it benefits 1.1% of the population;—Putin blaming Europe’s leaders for causing energy shortages and soaring prices, on the eve of the next climate “summit”, COP26.
All the symptoms of a systemic economic breakdown — shortages, inflationary prices, the failure of institutions to address the explicit dangers, while pushing for a global central banker’s Green dictatorship — are signs of the WEAKNESS of the Davos billionaires who think they are the Kings of the Universe. In their frantic pursuit of their utopia, with its drastic reduction of human population, they have planted the seeds of their own defeat. What’s needed to defeat them is a strategy. Join with the Schiller Institute to rally the millions of those suffering from the policies of the establishment, to put them out of business!

Join us LIVE on Saturday, October 16 at 2pm EDT. Now that the Chinese government has made it clear what they really think about the CO2 goals of the October 31-November 6 COP26 climate summit, the strategic circumstances of the upcoming three weeks, starting with the Halloween Night beginning of the Glasgow Séance, have significantly changed. Action, and action now will have surprising, non-linear, even seismic impact.
The recent release of a CLINTEL/Schiller Institute statement, “A WAKE-UP CALL: THE DANGER FOR MANKIND IS NOT THE CLIMATE, BUT TOLERATION OF A DEVIOUS POLICY THAT USES CLIMATE TO DESTROY US!” was extremely well-timed. It has already caused a firestorm among the “green Malthusians”, and relief for those that insist that real scientific and technological progress is in the self- interest of every nation and person–including the daft Malthusian ghouls that oppose it. This Saturday will consist of a report about the Thursday “Day of Action” for Afghanistan conducted worldwide. Diane Sare will join Dennis Speed and others for a discussion of not only that mobilization, but of the Chinese policy-shift from the Malthusian one-child policy of the 1970s and early 80’s, to their recent eradication of poverty in their nation, a feat unprecedented—especially for a nation of well over one billion people.
On October 11, 2021 the Schiller Institute in Denmark held a seminar in Copenhagen, Denmark. Now that the war in Afghanistan is over, and many people in the West are shaken by the events, there is an opportunity to exchange the policy, which has been based on regime change and military interventions to a policy for peace through economic development. That goes for Afghanistan and also for the rest of the world.

What is the significance of the debate as to whether inflation is “transitory”? It is an academic ruse, to avoid discussing the real cause, the hyperinflationary liquidity pumping to pave the way for the Great Reset?Why is China supporting COP26? Its actions, including increased electricity production from burning coal, shows it is not complying with COP26 demands.
Mark Carney, Climate Change Tsar for the U.N., and former Director of the Bank of England, laid out in an Oct. 12 interview what the Green New Deal is. He said it will require between $100 and $150 TRILLION to be spent over 30 years in new “green” technology. To do this, he said, requires a change in financial “plumbing”. He is demanding a “Reset” that will give private banks and financial institutions control over the credit policies of nations; further, the move in this direction is already driving up energy prices, by cutting credit to producers, and pouring liquidity into speculators. As stated in the {Economist}, the mouthpiece for the City of London, “Get used to it.” But Carney admitted there is resistance, citing China, Indonesia and South Africa as three who will fight it. Join us to defeat this insane project of the globalist banksters.
This call by the Schiller Institute will be distributed internationally Oct. 14 as the IMF and World Bank meet in Washington.
Today and in the coming days, we, informed citizens of the world and patriots of our own nations, stand united, in Washington, Berlin, Lima, Paris, Rome, Buenos Aires, Copenhagen, Madrid, Stockholm, Brussels and in many other cities of the world, to expose and denounce a crime.
On August 15, after four decades of foreign interventions, a new government took power in Afghanistan. While having orientations we don’t necessarily approve of, the new government has expressed its willingness to face the immediate humanitarian challenges, eradicate opium production, reconstruct Afghanistan’s health system and build the basic infrastructure required to jump-start trade and development. As clearly understood by Pakistan, India, China, Russia, Turkmenistan, Iran and others, it is in the interest of all to allow the new government to stabilize the situation by engaging in normal international relations. But more is required: without a minimal foreign input, Afghanistan will fail in dealing with a deadly food and health crisis that started way before Aug. 14.
Hence, it is outrageous that in the days following the Taliban takeover, the White House announced that all assets of Afghanistan’s central bank held in the U.S. would not be released to the new Afghan government:
- The U.S. Federal Reserve refuses to release the $9.5 billion of assets of the Central Bank of Afghanistan, $7 billion of which are held by the New York Fed. About $1.3 billion of these are held in international accounts, with some of it in euros and British pounds, while the rest are held by the Bank for International Settlements based in Switzerland. As a result, Afghanistan can only access 0.1-0.2 % of its total reserves!
- The International Monetary Fund has suspended all financing for “lack of clarity within the international community” over recognizing the new government. $370 million set to be released on Aug. 23 was withheld and access to the IMF’s reserves in Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) assets, which can be converted to government-backed money, have also been blocked.
- The World Bank (as denounced by a petition of Code Pink) has refused to release some $440 million, notably the funds required to pay Afghan teachers and health workers. Hence, while there is a huge outcry over “women’s rights,” 13,000 female healthcare workers, including doctors, midwives, nurses, vaccinators, and other female staff, are not being paid by the World Bank’s Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF).
On Feb. 29, 2020, the Taliban and the U.S. government signed an agreement. Part III of that agreement stipulates: “The U.S.A. and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan are committed to continue positive relations, including economic cooperation for reconstruction…. The United States will refrain from the threat or the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Afghanistan or intervening in its domestic affairs.”
Today, if the United States wants to regain respect and esteem, it has to live up to its own commitments, especially when millions of human lives, both female and male, are at stake, which is the case in Afghanistan as a result of a food and health crisis of apocalyptic dimensions. Two out of five Afghans, many of them children, are facing starvation.
Therefore, we, the undersigned, call on President Joe Biden to act in the spirit of the 2020 Doha agreement, signed by the U.S.A., and lift all unnecessary sanctions against Afghanistan, including the use of malign pretexts to prevent its control over the assets of its own central bank as well as its normal access to the international financial markets. The urgency is now!
Support this call and help to spread it!

Usher in the “Age of Reason” to End “Depraved Indifference”
“For only can a great and noble cause
arouse humanity’s profoundest nature.”
—Friedrich Schiller
There is a nation, today, in which one out of three people is on the brink of starvation, where droughts have recently destroyed 40% of the wheat production. 90% of the population lacks access to medical care. 80% of the population is under the age of 30, but war has raged there for 40 years, a fragile peace just now established. This nation is Afghanistan.
In another nation, two in five people are hungry. Raw sewage flows in the rivers. 75% of the nation’s energy comes from the burning of wood for charcoal–a sixteenth century technology. 59% of the population earns less than $2.43 per day. This nation is Haiti.
A young mind, now extending itself to embrace the world, beyond the limits of the possible, shall have no choice but to call out, “The condition of humanity is intolerable! Let no individual who ever loved his fellow man be still! Either we will enact an Age of Reason, or humanity may soon extinguish itself by its own barbarity.”
Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Founder and President of The Schiller Institute, has forecast that this Age of Reason, a “community of common destiny for mankind,” as Chinese President Xi Jinping has termed it, lies within our reach—should we take the occasion of the defeat of NATO in Afghanistan as the opportunity to commit the four great powers of Russia, China, India, and the USA to the necessary physical economic development of Afghanistan, and every nation.
We can leave behind the depraved system of geopolitics, which justifies Malthusian destruction of life by the myth of “limited resources,” and establish a New Paradigm dedicated to the common aims of mankind, as expressed in the common use of the science of physical economy to bring modern health infrastructure, clean water, food, education, classical culture, science and technology to all peoples of the world.
Today, Mrs. Zepp-LaRouche and her co-thinkers are mobilizing true leaders on every continent—those who thirst for the knowledge of universal principle, such as the doctors, the classical artists, the scientists, the statesmen, and perhaps most importantly, the YOUTH—to inaugurate this Age of Reason, by the successful transformation of Afghanistan, and of Haiti. The people of Afghanistan and Haiti, and of so many nations across the world, face famine, disease, war—but worse, they face the “depraved indifference” of the governments and people of the United States, European countries, and many others, who ignore known solutions to vicious suffering and death, who ignore the success of China in lifting 850 million people out of extreme poverty, who ignore the fifty-year economic forecasting record of the late American economist and statesman, Lyndon H. LaRouche.
The Schiller Institute invites you to participate in an international youth dialogue with Helga Zepp-LaRouche to be held Saturday, October 23rd, 2021, at 11:00AM EDT. Together, let us raise up a force of impassioned people, dedicated to righting these wrongs once and for all, so that we may say, truly, “Never again!”
We encourage you to read and study carefully these two documents prior to the discussion.

While the Great Reset/Green New Deal is poised for an inglorious collapse, there is a different “reset” underway, based on Eurasian integration. While this has been at the center of nightmares among the imperial geopoliticians tied to the City of London, and the speculative swindlers of Wall Street, for more than a century, there is no reason why the citizens of the U.S. and Europe should fear it. Instead, it represents an opportunity for the “West” — should we choose to give up wars, austerity and the central banker’s dictatorship — to participate in projects which would provide great benefits for U.S. producers, and fuel an industrial, agricultural and trade bonanza. Download your copy of “The Coming U.S. Economic Miracle on the New Silk Road”, and join our mobilization to implement it. Your participation will make the globalists most unhappy!
Two days of meetings between U.S. and Taliban officials in Doha were described as “candid and professional”, but the U.S. has still not agreed to release funds being held by the U.S. Treasury that rightfully belong to the people of Afghanistan. There is no time to waste in providing humanitarian aid, as hunger is stalking millions, including children. Along with humanitarian aid, the U.S. should join with others in a broad reconstruction program, beginning with building necessary infrastructure. Peaceful cooperation in such projects, rather than military buildup and threats, is the best transition out of the failed policy of regime change and endless wars.
