Jeffrey Steinberg, Allen Douglas, and Rachel Douglas report on the origins of this dogma in British geopolitical schemes of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Revolutionary Transformation After Hurricane Katrina

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Lyndon LaRouche, Jr. gave this webcast speech to a Washington, D.C. audience on Sept. 16. Addressing the decrepit state of U.S. infrastructure and the poverty that were both so clearly evidenced in the aftermath of the Hurricane Katrina, LaRouche points the way to a solution, drawing on the “living history” of the United States, the one nation that can solve the world’s onrushing financial-economic crisis. “We are a ruined nation,” he states, “but we still have, in the immortal aspect of ourselves, in the memory of what we were, in the evidence of what we were, we have the keys to success, the keys to rebuilding.”
