Webcast: U.S. Directed Attack on Crimea: One Step Closer to War Between NATO and Russia

At long last, Julian Assange will be freed. Those who held him in prison for the last five years, however, are still free to unleash wars and chaos, outside of any accountability. The deadly ATACMs strikes on a beach in Crimea, done with full U.S. complicity, shows why the fight that was waged by Assange, and on his behalf — to expose war crimes — must escalate.  The peace plan offered by Putin is a place to begin negotiations, which must occur before it is too late.

Yesterday was a day of mourning in Sevastopol, Crimea and in the Republic of Dagestan in Russia, after the weekend terrorist attacks on places of worship on Trinity Sunday.

The danger shown in the escalation involved in these two attacks was described by Schiller Institute leader Helga Zepp-LaRouche today, as signifying we are, “One or two steps from the point of no return.”

Zepp-LaRouche made the appeal again today: We have to get across to people to intervene, to demand negotiations be put back on the table. “Humanity depends on negotiations.” There can be all points of view, but talks must begin. Saying that a breakthrough to negotiations can “happen in many ways,” Zepp-LaRouche nevertheless singled out the United States, for the location where a shift can make all the difference.

The Schiller Institute and international collaborators are moving on initiatives of information and actions that can break through both the black-out of what is really going on, and the diplomacy paralysis, creating conditions for pulling back from the brink of disaster.

The role of the EIR.news is indispensable. Look at the elements of what everyone “needs to know” and act upon at present:

  • On May 26, the Red Alert was issued by the Schiller Institute warning that, “Ukrainian Strike on Russian Early Warning Radar Threatens To Unleash Nuclear World War,” reporting on the Ukrainian drone strikes May 22-23 against the Armavir Radar Station. On May 26, another strike was aimed at the Orsk early warning installation, in Orenburg.
  • On June 12, the National Press Club event in Washington D.C. warned of the danger of nuclear war, with reports given by Schiller Institute leader Helga Zepp-LaRouche, and three military experts: Scott Ritter, former U.N. weapons inspector and U.S. Marine intelligence office; Col. (ret.) Richard H. Black, former head of the U.S. Army’s Criminal Law Division at the Pentagon and a former Virginia State Senator; and Col. (ret.) Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to United States Secretary of State Colin Powell, plus Anastasia Battle, coordinator, International Peace Foundation/
  • On June 14, President Vladimir Putin presented to the special Foreign Ministry gathering, an overview of how the Ukraine crisis came about, from the vantage point of how negotiations and diplomacy can be conducted to end the crisis and provide for the Eurasian security and development in the interests of all.
  • On June 15 the German OKV (East German Board of Trustees of Associations–Ostdeutsches Kuratorium von Verbaenden) issued an international invitation to endorse President Putin’s initiative; and on June 21 the International Peace Coalition did so.

In addition, in the course of this, the Schiller Institute held an international, online two-day conference, “The World on the Brink; for a New Peace of Westphalia,” addressing the crisis, with solutions,

These developments are the basis for creating more forward momentum, to get a breakthrough toward negotiations and diplomacy. Zepp-LaRouche today underscored, “We can agree on principle. Then work out the details.” We are mustering the forces for sanity and intervention.

Webcast: To Address an Existential Crisis, Think Like LaRouche

The major outcome of the “Summit for Peace in Ukraine,” staged in the Swiss resort of Bürgenstock over the weekend, is how it demonstrates conclusively that the West is no long able to coerce, or even fake, a “coalition” willing to do its bidding. This is a “strategic reality,” as noted by Schiller Institute founder Helga Zepp-LaRouche today. The implication from this is, of course, that individuals and nations must step forward—as is happening in the Global Majority, to lead the way out of today’s horrifying phase of war, genocide, and danger of nuclear annihilation, into a new epoch of development.

Zepp-LaRouche reviewed the Swiss “peace” event, which was condemned to fail from the start, by excluding Russia, a principal party. There were 160 nations invited—a large part of the 200 countries in the United Nations, but only 98 accepted. Of those, 20 nations refused to sign the summit communiqué, and of the 78 nations which did, 42 of them were from Europe, with only 11 from Africa. China did not attend. Other leading nations of the BRICS, including India, South Africa and the U.A.E., refused to sign, along with other major nations such as Mexico.

In sum, Zepp-LaRouche noted, there is “a clear recognition that the Global Majority is no longer anywhere near the Global West” in terms of alignment and subservience. “The West is no longer able to dictate the terms” of military, economic, (counter) culture, and other fundamental relations among and within nations.

The immediate danger is the mad push forward by the Global NATO warhawks for nuclear confrontation. Outgoing NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said in an interview with Telegraph, in London, done in Brussels at last week’s NATO defense ministers’ meeting, that NATO members are discussing taking more of their nuclear warheads out of storage, and putting more of them into active standby mode. He called this process increasing Western “deterrence,” saying it was necessary because Russia and China are two “nuclear-powered adversaries.”

These comments just add to the context in which the significance of the role played by the Schiller Institute and collaborators is clear, to sound the alarm. The message of the June 12 Schiller Institute emergency press briefing at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. continues to reverberate, and needs to sound the alarm even faster and louder. “The Danger of Nuclear War Is Real, and Must Be Stopped.” The message from the three senior military-intelligence specialists, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, and Anastasia Battle, leader of the International Peace Coalition, is critical.

Europe-based senior analyst Gilbert Doctorow stressed this in an article this week, covering the Schiller Institute event, in which he stated, after citing some observations and differences, “It would be excellent if the broad American public would listen to and act upon what Scott Ritter and Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson had to say. Here is a case where genuine American patriotism is fully aligned with saving the world for all of its peoples. Though I call out these two speakers, it is well worthwhile to watch at least the first hour of this event. So far, the video has attracted 43,000 viewers, It needs another 4 million to gain traction. May that happen!”

In Brazil, the message of the June 12 emergency event is likewise now circulating in the media. One reporter, carried by the national, important publication, CartaCapital, synthesized the content of the 2.5 hour National Press Club event, including that, “German activist” Helga Zepp-LaRouche “urges that a new and immediate security and development architecture, that takes into account the interests of every country,” be created.

This “story” will not grow stale. The challenge is to get it out rapidly, and engage everyone in the process of dialogue and policy formulation, as presented at the June 15-16 international Schiller Institute conference, “The World on the Brink: For a New Peace of Westphalia!”

Webcast: At this Moment of Danger, the People Must Be the Peacemakers.

At what point is one comforted by the argument, “Oh, they would never launch nuclear missiles at us”? Perhaps one should ask, “What is on the mind of those who make such assurances?”

If you have to ask, the answer is worse than those who provide assurances that your home values will always go up, your social security will always be there, and $35 trillion in national debt won’t destroy you or your child’s life.

Today, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov made a new contribution to the latest national sport of Russia, trying to figure out how to wake up their nuclear counterpart, the United States. Recent and sober contributions have included making a demonstration nuclear explosion, one not involving injuring anyone, just to jolt Westerners as to the physical reality of the event. Another objects that nothing less than a single, live action, tactical nuclear bomb with massive casualties, would do the trick. Russian President Vladimir Putin had responded to Britain’s latest escalation, to have Ukraine use Western weapons to hit deep into Russia, with a more limited response, that Russia will target the military facilities of the particular Western country, those inside of Ukraine and those elsewhere.

Ryabkov’s new wrinkle addressed the fantasy life in Washington, keeping those driving the country over the cliff from seeing the road. He stated: “I’d like to warn American actors against miscalculations that can lead to fatal consequences. For some unclear reason they underestimate how serious a response they could face.” American policymakers need to “spend some of their time, which they probably waste on computer games, judging by their air-headed approach to serious issues” on considering what Putin actually said.

German Gen. Harald Kujat (ret.), former Chief of Staff of the Bundeswehr (2000-2002) and former Chairman of the NATO Military Committee (2002-2005), is not one given to hyperbole. Today, interviewed by Switzerland’s YouTube radio broadcast “Weltwoche,” Kujat stated: “I fear that the war in Ukraine will become the primal catastrophe of the 21st century.” He added that everyone is simply watching and/or joining in on the incitement and warmongering. He remarked grimly: “We will simply get what we deserve.”

One U.S. Senator yesterday, David Vance, tweeted: “I think the risk of nuclear war is higher now than at any point in my lifetime. Biden is sleepwalking into World War 3.” A Politico article that got Vance’s attention explained that no matter how “limited” and “defensive” Biden’s permission to Ukraine to strike inside Russia is portrayed, it “highlighted, once again, how Biden often changes his mind on once-taboo Ukraine policy ideas after battlefield conditions shift or, most persuasively, allies move first. That was especially true when the U.S. followed Britain and France in sending long-range missiles for Ukraine to use deep behind Russian front lines.”

Today, one American, the former Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter, was off to attend Russia’s annual St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), to do his best in his campaign to wake up Americans as to the danger we find ourselves. The U.S. State Department, with no explanation, with no charges alleged, actually physically stopped him from boarding his plane and had his passport seized. Is there any desperation in their actions?

Have Ryabkov’s computer games—or virtual reality exercises, good, old-fashioned hard liquor, or the more popular marijuana-induced fantasy life—allowed you or your leaders to slip into the death of civilization comfortably?

Those who whisper, “We can push our enemies past every ‘red line’ they draw,” are simply saying that they have a serious, serious addiction and a desperate situation. Whatever they are selling is guaranteed poison.

Perhaps the 70,000 New York citizens who put Diane Sare on the ballot as an independent candidate for U.S. Senate, or the similar mobilization of 10,000 in the Bronx CD 15 putting Jose Vega on the ballot for U.S. Congress, as actual human beings who can think, and can lead, and are not addicted to fantasies, can inject some life in the old republic yet. One big healthy step into reality involves wrapping your mind around a solution to the misery in Gaza, to the debasement of the Israeli population: The LaRouche Oasis Plan.

The late economist and statesman Lyndon LaRouche concluded his 1977 document, titled “What Really Are the Labor Committees?—The Lessons of Erasmus and Franklin,” with the following paragraph: “Let it be understood, therefore, that if you are a humanist, the Labor Committees are in that sense your organization—whether or not you are a member. If you are for technological progress in the expansion of industry and agriculture, and define the vital interests of nations in those terms, and if you regard man’s power to create and assimilate scientific knowledge for the perfection of our species as the inviolable distinction between man and the lower beasts, then the Labor Committees are an indispensable aid to the cause you espouse, whatever political affiliation you have.”

Nearly 50 years after that was written, independent candidates that have rejected bankrupt, moribund political parties, such as New York’s U.S. Senate candidate Diane Sare and Bronx Congressional candidate Jose Vega, are part of a growing international movement away from the predatory military-financial complex. Those in the trans-Atlantic sector calling for a return to advanced technological progress and an increase in the productive powers of labor, in alliance with the emerging nations of the Global South, are on the cutting edge of world politics today. War, even total war, will not stop this progress, if an international coalition for peace, linked together by a 24-hour “symposium” process, can operate as an intellectual clearing-house for policy deliberation.

Faced with an unprecedented evil—the ongoing, electronically-transmitted genocide, transpiring at this moment in Gaza, with no trans-Atlantic government acting to stop it—we, the people, are required to evoke from ourselves, and then deploy, an unprecedented good. Neither the world in general, nor we as individuals, can, or will, avoid the truth of this moment. We are being tested in the balance. Our self-conception as human beings is placed on one side of the scale. On the other side of the scale are weighed the lives of what was once 2 million people in Gaza. Over 350,000 people have been forced to flee, now from Rafah, where they were told they would be safe. The “red line” has been crossed, and nothing has been done. The Palestinians are forced to flee again some for the eighth or more time in eight months, now out of Rafah, and to where … and to what?

So far, we, and the world, have been tested in the balance, and found wanting.

This week, the LaRouche Organization, the Schiller Institute, and the International Peace Coalition, as well as all people of good will, must go beyond resources, beyond apparent influence, and beyond words, to catalyze an immediate change in the axioms of thinking, and therefore of behavior, of our fellow citizens now sleepwalking into World War Three. The doorway to that war may be through Palestine, and some are inviting it.

This is the moment to try. “The basic assumption for the new paradigm is, that man is fundamentally good and capable to infinitely perfect the creativity of his mind and the beauty of his soul, and being the most advanced geological force in the universe, which proves that the lawfulness of the mind and that of the physical universe are in correspondence and cohesion, and that all evil is the result of a lack of development, and therefore can be overcome.” Helga Zepp-LaRouche’s Tenth Principle, of her Ten Principles for a New International Security and Development Architecture, properly studied, understood and deployed as the basis for taking the next step beyond the student protests, is the moral springboard that can connect the universities and high schools with the population at large.

Webcast: Xi Meets Macron — New Peace Offensive Possible?

Amid the horrifying news that Israel is beginning its operations in Rafah, the last region of the Gaza Strip not already pulverized by Israel, a different paradigm is manifesting itself in Europe, with the arrival of Chinese President Xi Jinping to France, Serbia, and Hungary.

Chinese President Xi Jinping is now in Paris for a two-day trip including a summit with President Emmanuel Macron and other meetings and events. As is often the case, the visiting president wrote an opinion piece published in France’s oldest national newspaper, in which he presented three proposals: first, that the outlook that brought about the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two nations 60 years ago radiate again in a spirit of peace and development; second, to expand bilateral economic cooperation, such as through new processes of higher productivity; and third, to work together to preserve peace and stability in the world.

Xi told reporters that he would only support an international Ukraine peace conference if it includes the participation of both Russia and Ukraine. Currently, there are plans to hold a “peace” conference without Russia in Switzerland in mid-June. The president warned against smearing China’s efforts to achieve a peaceful solution to the Ukraine situation.

The West would do well to learn from the shifting world dynamic, as recently expressed by President of the Democratic Republic of Congo Félix Tshisekedi in a polemical interview with French television during his visit to Paris last week.

The Prime Minister of Georgia pointed to one particularly glaring hypocrisy of the West: governments supporting attacks on pro-Palestinian protests while denouncing police actions in other nations.

Pointing to hypocrisy does not itself provide a solution. For that, the World Land-Bridge of the LaRouche Movement, including its particular expression in the Oasis Plan, is the path forward. Two candidates in New York, U.S. Senate candidate Diane Sare and congressional candidate Jose Vega, are taking the lead on campaigning actively for this outlook in the U.S.

We are in a time of dramatic change, when humanity faces decisions in the near future whose consequences will be felt for generations.

Will Anglo-American NATO propel its showdown with Russia to the brink, sending us teetering on the edge of the thermonuclear abyss? Will Israeli misleader Benjamin Netanyahu propel his ongoing military barbarisms, engulfing the region in conflict, with Iran as a potential justification? Will the United States cease to content itself with stern lectures and trade sanctions against China, the world’s leading economy—turning instead to forcing the military confrontation over Taiwan they claim China is planning?

Conflict is not inevitable, and colonialism is not eternal. The future is made by the actions taken every day, by leaders and citizens alike. Mental inertia need not overpower reason; it is not yet too late to shift!

There are signs of a transformation of official policy, and of nations’ and people’s self-perceived roles in deliberating upon it. Hawaii has become the first U.S. state to demand that the U.S. support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The nation’s youth overwhelmingly oppose the Biden policy towards Israel. College protests continue and expand, perhaps most notably in Columbia University in New York City, where an administration-imposed deadline to disperse came and went Monday afternoon. Reports from Israel indicate that Netanyahu is trying to figure out how to stop what seem to be upcoming arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court.

Indeed, nothing would be more reasonable, from the standpoint of the true self-interest of the United States and of its people, than to return to the revolutionary concepts that led to its founding.

A revival of the American System, taking on new forms appropriate to the present, would set the U.S. on course to having a beautiful future. It will free the nations of NATO to rid themselves of the myopic and puerile attitude of maintaining relevance, by preventing others from growing.

Abundance is ours, if we choose it.

Truth Over Treason: Toppling the ‘Not-So-Deep State’

“Today, on the campuses, this is something being done to 18 year-olds and 19 year-olds who simply are seeing the mass slaughter of women, children and people in Palestine, and are opposing it. They’re saying there has to be a better way than this; we’ve already acknowledged, and it’s been acknowledged by the UN, that there is supposed to be a state called Palestine. What is the problem with us ending the war and looking to do some form of economic development that brings peace to this area. They’re being called anti-Semitic.”

The same epithets used against Lyndon LaRouche beginning in the 1970s, and ever since, for the same purpose of stopping the establishment of a new, just world economic order, including the Oasis Plan—the only basis for durable peace—are used now against huge numbers of American students.

Just recently, the Schiller Institute conducted a very successful online conference presenting the Oasis Plan for a comprehensive economic development perspective for all of Southwest Asia, however, the strategic situation is moving closer to the point of no return.

Two recent votes underline the urgency to expand our efforts dramatically. The veto by the US denying Palestine the requested status as a full member of the UN clearly has thrown back the possibility to end the horrible, unprecedented catastrophe in Gaza. This veto is an historic travesty, which is isolating the US and its allies further from the countries of the Global Majority, who will not forget what is happening now in front of the eyes of the world. Secondly, the vote by the US House of Representatives to provide another $95 billion for weapons and other military operations in Ukraine, Israel and the Pacific region represents a gigantic step further in bringing the world to the abyss of a global nuclear war.

Why is the spectacular failure of U.S. representative government and leadership, seen in Saturday’s “bipartisan,” “democratic” $100 billion vote to continue to finance the no-win depopulation wars in Gaza and Ukraine, a de facto active provocation for World War Three? And what can be done to reverse that failure?

April 15, 2024 (EIRNS)—Helga Zepp-LaRouche, in two discussions with colleagues on Monday, stressed that, in this potentially catastrophic world situation, it is essential that the proceedings of the Saturday Schiller Institute conference, “The Oasis Plan: The LaRouche Solution for Peace Through Development Between Israel and Palestine and for All of Southwest Asia,” be made available in a condensed format within 48 hours. The United Nations will see discussions in the next days which could prove to be momentous. The Schiller Institute comprehensively presented the Lyndon LaRouche insight, still controversial to many, that a comprehensive physical-economic solution must either accompany, or precede, any efficient proposal for the resolution of the population wars in Ukraine and in the Gaza/West Bank.


This new approach, based on the idea that peace is only possible if all sides recognize their economic interest in common development, must be brought into the upcoming debate on war or peace that is currently taking place both in the United Nations and on the streets and in the homes of the transatlantic world. We must bring about a rapid change of heart in the United States and Europe, to which the global majority can respond positively. The joint international reconstruction of Gaza as part of a newly recognized Palestinian state is the only chance to overcome this terrible tragedy.

This is the method which the Independent campaigns of Diane Sare and Jose Vega have espoused. It is the method which the Schiller institute Oasis conference advocates. And it is the method that can restore self-government, based on the principle of the General Welfare, to the failed states of the trans-Atlantic world.

April 8, 2024 (EIRNS)—The British-American gambit to use NATO’s advance through Ukraine to demolish Russia and overthrow the Putin government, has been a monumental failure, as even the blind can see. A half-million Ukrainian lives later, what does the London-Washington axis propose to do? Double down on strategic stupidity, and now send NATO troops directly to Ukraine, and dance right up to the brink of thermonuclear war with Russia.

The Netanyahu government—with Washington and London’s full complicity—has engaged in genocide in Gaza with such chutzpah that it has earned them all a well-deserved place in the docket of a new Nuremberg Tribunal. Are they at last looking for a way to settle matters through negotiations? Don’t hold your breath.

Rather, the NATO war machine is aggressively expanding into the Pacific theater, a policy which will be pushed hard at this week’s summit meeting of President Biden with Japan’s Kishida and the Philippines’ Marcos—with some think-tankers even proposing that the U.S. go to war with China over the Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea! And NATO is also rapidly spreading its reach into the South Atlantic as well, with last week’s visit to Argentina by the head of the U.S. Southern Command, General Laura Richardson.

Why is this happening? Can we not learn from our mistakes?

“I think that the larger problem, larger than the specifics of Ukraine, NATO against Russia, danger of widening of the Middle East war, the larger issue is geopolitics,” Helga Zepp-LaRouche argued in a discussion with associates today. “Because even if one would find a solution to the Ukraine war and the Middle East war, as long as the West—meaning NATO, the U.S., EU, U.K.—as long as they are determined to keep the neoliberal unipolar dominance of the world, and regard emerging countries as enemies, and all the more so when they are allied with China, Russia and the BRICS in building a new system; as long as they regard that as the enemy, they will keep finding war scenarios.”

Zepp-LaRouche continued: “That is why only our approach (will work): first to demonstrate the concept of peace through development with the Oasis Plan, but then in a larger way to establish a new security and development architecture, where the principle of peace through development is applied to the whole world. Unless we accomplish that, I don’t think this present escalation to World War III will cease, simply because the scenarios and theaters may shift and change, but the overall oligarchical imperial control as a motivation will remain.”

Zepp-LaRouche then pointed to the importance of this week’s filing by Nicaragua before the International Court of Justice in The Hague, charging Germany with violating the Genocide Convention by sending large amounts of weapons to Israel—which itself has been ordered by the ICJ to cease its actions in Gaza which constitute a plausible case of genocide. “The fact that this took place is absolutely important,” Zepp-LaRouche stated. “No matter what the ruling elites may think, that they can just ignore it and reject it, you can be sure that the eyes of the Global South and the whole world will be on that situation.”

“It is the case of humanity which is on trial, and not just the plight of the Palestinians,” she concluded. “So let’s organize up a storm for the Oasis Plan conference on April 13, and let’s keep in mind that we need to get to a new paradigm altogether.”

Israel has launched a missile strike against the Iranian Embassy in Damascus. Among those killed was a brigadier general of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. As international opprobrium against Israel grows, is this an effort to broaden the war? To force the direct participation of the United States, for example?

As the meat grinder in Ukraine continues, more voices are pointing out the obvious: Ukraine—with the “support” NATO has been providing it—cannot defeat Russia. Even Macron has indirectly acknowledged this with his proposal for directly deploying troops to Ukraine. Former German Gen. Harold Kujat (ret.) has said that if Ukraine does not negotiate, it may not exist. Elon Musk, whose Starlink system is crucial to the Ukrainian military activities, has said the same.

Israel’s attempts to shore up its fast-eroding support on the international stage are not working; is forcing support by broadening the war the new strategy? NATO leaders have incongruously claimed not only that Ukrainian membership in NATO would have prevented Russia from daring to invade but also that Russia will march on (NATO) Western Europe after finishing with Ukraine.

In an environment filled with as many paradoxes as the present, even the most persistent ostrich would have trouble keeping its head in the sand. Who could fail to see the incongruities demanding greater understanding, were it not for the numbing effects of such things as drugs, alcohol, and surrender to social media and doomscrolling, to occupy the mind till the opportunity for thought has expired?

In both cases—that of Gaza and Ukraine the status quo cannot continue: a shift will occur. But what will it be?

An avalanche of change is required. A growing call to achieve a new paradigm of security, intertwined with economic, cultural, and technological development. While events can prompt reflection, resolution comes from within.

Against the backdrop of the horrors confronting the world, we can use the beauty of the human species, the immense good and joy that can come with a thriving, peaceful future, to develop the inner devotion to overcome our inertia and implement a system of international and social relations that make possible the resolution of the seemingly irreconcilable.

Lyndon LaRouche’s Oasis Plan, presented afresh through an upcoming April 13 Schiller Institute conference, paints, paradoxically, the global environment in which peace is possible, as reified through a detailed plan for the development of water, transport, and energy infrastructure in Southwest Asia, to transform a zone of conflict into a crossroads of connectivity.

As the world shifts, how can it be ensured that it moves toward peace, rather than annihilation?
