March 10, 2025 (EIRNS)—Changes in all directions are occurring by the day in the world strategic situation, and in people’s everyday lives. One historic pattern to be reckoned with, is the U.S.-Europe hostility. The dramatic feature of this is the mad rush in Europe for militarization—perpetrated in the name of defending Ukraine, and preparing to defend against war from Russia.

Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Schiller Institute founder and leader, noting this today, called the U.S.-Europe breach “worrisome and dangerous.” But she spoke not from the standpoint of recommending returning to the conformity among the nations on both sides of the Atlantic, which has gone on for decades, under horrible British geopolitics. She spoke today from the vantage point of ending that for good. On March 8, Zepp-LaRouche issued a statement of principle and action through the Schiller Institute titled, “Instead of Rearming for the Great War, We Need To Create a Global Security.” Her appeal warns the nations of Europe that “they are making a catastrophic historical mistake. If they then also attempt to finance the enormous lack of military capabilities by creating money outside the regular budgets, they are repeating German Reichsbank President Hjalmar Schacht’s policy of Mefo bills from the 1930s.”

Zepp-LaRouche’s statement concluded with eight points for action, beginning: “We call on European politicians to come to their senses! Do not repeat the mistakes of the 1930s!”

European circles on the warpath exceed even the wildest science and sociological fiction. Tomorrow in Strasbourg, EU functionaries Ursula von der Leyen, European Union Commission President, and Antonio Costa, European Council President, are to meet with the European Parliament to attempt to cheer them on for the mad EU “Rearm Europe” plan, mandating $860 billion in new arms funding, for Europe and Ukraine, to stand up against Russia. On March 20-21 the leaders of 27 EU countries are to have their second meeting on this multi-billion euro commitment in Brussels, likely with Volodymyr Zelenskyy on hand, Acting President of Ukraine.

This flight forward occurs at the very same time as the breakdown of Ukraine forces in the field is worsening rapidly. In its Kursk region, Russian forces have encircled some 6-10,000 Ukrainian incursion soldiers in a “cauldron” at Sudzha. The Russians conducted a surprise move to enter through nine miles of empty underground gas pipelines.

A meeting will take place tomorrow, March 11, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, between Ukrainian and U.S. delegations. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio leads the Americans. Acting Ukrainian President Zelenskyy will be accompanied by Andriy Yermak, head of the Office of the Presidency.

The Schiller Institute posting of the Zepp-LaRouche March 8 “Global Security Architecture” statement, has a signature page for endorsements, and also welcomes any and all other initiatives acting in the same spirit and principles. For example, on March 9 in France, a statement was issued by former military officers and by sovereignists, opposing the extending and sharing of the French nuclear force, which French President Emmanuel Macron is proposing. Their statement is titled, “Nuclear Deterrence, in Essence, Is the Expression of a National Will and Cannot Be Shared.”

The Schiller Institute posting introduces Mrs. LaRouche’s statement as, “for immediate and widespread international circulation. It is being issued at a time when Europe is at an historic crossroads, where a different alternative must be urgently put on the table if a catastrophe is to be avoided. We encourage signatures of endorsement from all walks of life to force this issue out into the public debate as quickly as possible.”

Feb. 24, 2025 (EIRNS)—Why is it in Americans’ national security interest, that President Donald Trump act to curtail the “special relationship” that presently exists between the British Imperial and Commonwealth intelligence services, and the United States military and military-intelligence? This week’s visit by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to Washington, D.C., undertaken in the vain hope of re-enlisting America as the financial and logistical “backstop” for further fruitless European posturing in an already-lost war in Ukraine, is the proper time to pose to the American people this question: What exact benefit does the United States gain from its so-called “special relationship” with Great Britain? Should a swift and solemn end be brought to the British-U.S. “special relationship,” in preparation for the upcoming celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States’ Declaration of Independence?

It is time—past time—to re-commit the United States to the original purpose of the 1776-1783 American Revolution. That was, as was clearly re-stated by President Franklin Roosevelt during World War Two to an apoplectic Winston Churchill, to remove the foot of Portuguese, Dutch, Belgian, French and British imperialism from the throat of people all over the world. Instead, the United States, founded to be the opposite of the British Empire, has, especially in the “unipolar era” from 1990 until now, been acting against the interests of the American people, and the American Revolution itself, engaging in no-win wars and overthrowing governments always in the name of democracy, but waged in reality on behalf of an international financial elite, a trans-Atlantic “War Party,” operating under the codename “NATO.” Britain’s Keir Starmer visits Washington this week on behalf of that mission, and nothing else. …

In her concluding remarks after a discussion with international collaborators Monday Feb. 10th Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of the Schiller Institute, emphasized that her late husband Lyndon LaRouche had the capacity to bring in a new idea which brought order to a seemingly very messy unfolding situation.
This relates to a very specific way of thinking, where a situation is approached from the top, not bottom up. This scientific way of thinking gives one the ability to look at the principles at play, not particular events that interact in so-called empty space.

In a speech at the Central Connecticut State University in May 2009, Lyndon LaRouche elaborated this point in regard to the Israel-Palestine crisis, the crisis can only be solved by looking at Israel and Palestine as part of world-historic dynamics over centuries. The implantation of the LaRouche Oasis Plan would and will change the whole geometry of Southwest Asia by uniting all involved for a common mission. The idea of mutual economic development can be applied to all crises spots that are victims of British geopolitics and those places that have been deindustrialized in the name of British Free Trade and saving the speculative bubble economy.

She concluded, “So I think we should proceed from the assumption we know how the world should look like, we need a new international security and development architecture, because nothing less will do, in order to avoid World War III. I think we should really go with great optimism into this next period, because a lot of people realize that things are no more going to be as they were, but they are absent of any positive conception of how the future should look, so I think we have a tremendous vacuum.”

Join Larry C. Johnson and Helga Zepp-LaRouche in their discussion following Tuesday’s confirmation hearings for Robert F. Kennedy, Jr and Tulsi Gabbart as well as the Trump-Netanyahu meeting.

Helga Zepp-LaRouche stated in a discussion with international collaborators that the world was in great suspense regarding the outcomes of various breaking developments. She posed the question whether these would lead to hopeful solutions or merely more of the same. Zepp-LaRouche noted the significance of confirming Robert Kennedy, Jr. for HHS and Tulsi Gabbard for DNI.  Both were successfully voted out of Senate committees this Tuesday, and now go for confirmation by the full Senate.  The vote for Patel, at a date not yet known, would also play a role in defining the outcome. She expressed hope that if these individuals were confirmed, it could result in a substantial cleanout of what is generally referred to as the Deep State, or more accurately, the permanent bureaucracy, which has been responsible for what went wrong in the United States for at least the past 50 years.

Additionally, Zepp-LaRouche mentioned that Netanyahu was already in the U.S. and would meet with Trump on Tuesday, after a meeting with Witkoff. This meeting is anticipated with great suspense, especially by millions of Palestinians and people across the Middle East and beyond. She raised the question whether Netanyahu’s policies would continue and whether Trump would again advocate displacing Palestinians to Egypt, Jordan, and Indonesia.  Or, will the plan revealed by Netanyahu’s office last May, which involved significant real estate development in the Gaza Strip and the displacement of the Palestinian population, be pursued? This has been rejected by these governments, and furthermore, a recent meeting of six Arab nations has declared that there is no solution other than a two-state solution for Palestine.

Zepp-LaRouche said that we would likely gain insight into the situation on Tuesday, pondering whether Trump would fulfill his promise to end wars and bring about a change in the current circumstances.

Diane Sare, President of The LaRouche Organization, notes in her statement, “Is There a Democrat in the Senate with Half the Integrity of Frank Church? If so, you will act to ensure the confirmation of Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel!”, that the confirmation hearings for Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel coincide with the 50 year anniversary of the establishment of the Church Committee:

“Fifty years ago today [Jan. 27], the U.S. Senate voted overwhelmingly to establish the Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities, known as the “Church Committee,” chaired by Idaho Democratic Sen. Frank Church.

It was a turbulent period, following the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his younger brother Robert, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King, and the Vietnam War and the opposition to it. President Nixon had been forced out by “Watergate.” It had come to light that various U.S. government agencies had been involved in some rather unsavory and unconstitutional activities, both abroad and against American citizens at home, and members of the Senate, led by prominent Democrats—unlike the Democratic Party leadership of today—decided that an investigation was warranted. …”

In discussion with associates today, Helga Zepp-LaRouche said that the strategic situation today is so full of contradictions that the only thing one can really say is that these contradictions will sooner or later detonate, and until then there is no predictable course that things will take. This is why, therefore, actions must be taken now to put fundamentally new solutions on the table.

Zepp-LaRouche stated that she hopes Trump’s focus on the “Deep State” will lead to some changes that will redefine all the many parameters of the other topics. Obviously, the first big decision comes this week, this Wednesday and Thursday, [Jan. 30], when there will be Senate hearings concerning the appointments of Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel, for Director of National Intelligence and FBI Director, respectively.

The LaRouche Movement is fully mobilized to secure the nominations of Gabbard and Patel.

Zepp-LaRouche continued: “One of the best examples of the contradictions is that among the executive orders which Trump issued on Jan. 23, was one which creates a “U.S. Strategic Reserve of Cryptocurrency,” which called for protection of the U.S. dollar, “including through actions to promote the development and growth of lawful and legitimate dollar-backed stablecoins worldwide.”  Sergey Glazyev commented on that, on Jan. 25, and he said, “this innovation can have fatal consequences. If before this decision, the dollar financial pyramid was losing stability, mainly due to a decrease in external demand for dollar instruments, now domestic demand will also fall as the cryptocurrency market expands. … [T]his will inevitably undermine the financial foundations of the American state. … This already losing stability financial system can collapse under the onslaught of an avalanche of uncontrolled issued cryptocurrencies. … Trump limits dollar circulation to the existing banking system, not allowing the dollar to circulate in an alternative distributed ledger system.”

These developments underscore the necessity that all well-intentioned persons overcome their false axioms in economics, as well as other areas of thinking, and implement the physical economic principles of Lyndon LaRouche.

Take the case of Gaza. The ceasefire is still holding, despite significant tensions in the West Bank and Lebanon. What better opportunity to rebuild the West’s credibility and moral standing in the world than to use this moment to build up a beautiful, independent nation of Palestine by creating modern infrastructure and water systems, Lyndon LaRouche’s Oasis Plan, across the region, ensuring prosperity and stability there for decades to come? Such an endeavor could naturally be taken up together with China, a country which has already chosen the path of technological and economic development over financial speculation and militarization.

Live dialogue with Helga Zepp-LaRouche and Scott Ritter

January 8, 2025, 12.30 pm EDT/6:30 p.m. (CET)

“Change Course Now – We Need a New Paradigm!”

On January 8, 2025, Helga Zepp-LaRouche will hold a dialogue on the current political situation with former UN weapons inspector and anti-war activist Scott Ritter.

Ritter is known internationally for his opposition to the neocon foreign policy and military policy in the United States and Europe. He served as an intelligence officer in the Marine Corps. He later served as a weapons inspector with the United Nations Special Commission in Iraq (UNSCOM mission) from 1991 to 1998. In this context, he emerged as a harsh critic of the Bush administration’s claims that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction, which was used to justify the 2003 war against Iraq.

Scott Ritter is an author, a member of the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), and a frequent commentator on international podcasts. His latest book, Disarmament in an Era of Perestroika: Arms Control and the End of the Soviet Union, details his experience working with the Soviet Union to reduce the threat of nuclear war. He has spoken at conferences of the international Schiller Institute, including a high-level press conference on the acute danger of nuclear war in Washington in June 2024.
