A Tale of Two Cities: Washington and Sacramento: What the Dickens Is Going On?
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Keynote speech to the Labor Day weekend conference of the Schiller Institute and International Caucus of Labor Committees. “Every citizen of the United States has to be concerned about what’s going on in California in these weeks, between now and Oct. 7. They have to be concerned about it! Otherwise, you may have no United States, implicitly, after Oct. 8. That could happen!... What is at stake, is not California. What is at stake is Washington. What is at stake, is the world, because of the danger of nuclear war, if something like Cheney continues to control Washington.”
The Role of Young People In Building a New World Order
by Dr. Chandrajit Yadav
A speech by the chairman of the Centre for Social Justice in New Delhi. “Youth must have a very high vision, a great desire. You should have the courage, and you should have the desire to climb the Everest—the highest mountain peak of the world! You should not fear, that while I’m going to climb, there are too many dangers—there will be a snowstorm; there will be avalanches; there will be so many problems. No! You nurture those feelings of fear—then you can’t do great things.”

To Fix the Shuttle: Change American Culture
by Marsha Freeman
The report by the Columbia Accident Investigation Board shows that flaws in “NASA’s culture” are actually a reflection of the broader cultural paradigm shift from the values of the early 1960s to today. As Lyndon LaRouche said at the time of the tragic accident, “Blame the bookkeeper mentality.”
Will Germany Revive Nuclear Power?
by Rainer Apel
The power blackouts in the United States, Britain, and Italy, plus the effects of Europe’s recent heat wave, are making Germans question the foolish ban on nuclear energy.

LaRouche Defends Zayed Centre
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
The closing of the Zayed Centre for Coordination and Follow-Up in Abu Dhabi, reports Lyndon LaRouche, “occurred under heavy pressure from elements within the U.S. Bush Administration. Such action by the United States is another piece of idiocy, like the continuing U.S. war in Iraq, which is directly contrary to the current and long-term security interests of my republic, the U.S.A.”

LaRouche Says: Bush Must Purge Neo-Cons Now!
by Jeffrey Steinberg
The fiasco in Administration foreign policy has led to a growing chorus of calls for the entire Iraq effort to be turned over to the United Nations. But without ousting the Cheney-led “war party,” the President will be unable to effect these urgently needed policy changes.

Sophism: Ideology That Destroys Societies and Nations
by Michael Liebig
A speech by Michael Liebig to the Schiller Institute Summer Academy in Frankfurt, Germany. “The political battle for Athens was lost; but the war, in world historical terms, was won by Socrates and Plato. Because, the ‘youth movement’ that Socrates had built up over more than three decades of teaching, developed an intellectual strength which drove the Sophist ideology onto the defensive and soon discredited it completely.”
