The Subject Is ‘Dynamics’: There Is But One Issue!  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

The existing world monetary-financial system is in the end-phase of a disintegration into a breakdown-crisis. Only a replacement of that useless monetary system by a credit-system in the image of U.S. Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton’s design could prevent the plunge of the entire world into a prolonged dark age comparable to that of Fourteenth-Century Europe, but far worse in depth and duration.

Only My Reforms Can Save the Planet from A Dark Age  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Lyndon LaRouche addressed a private meeting in Washington Nov. 11, in which he declared that, “This system is doomed in its present form. And there is no minor reform, there’s no monetary reform that could save this system.” What’s needed now, LaRouche said, is to establish a Constitutional credit system, to replace the bankrupt money system.

Kepler’s Actual Discovery: Mathematics Is Not Science  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

“I had always insisted on locating the reality of experienced knowledge in the process of generating a conception, rather than in what usually seemed to pass among others, for the simple ‘bottom line’ on the relevant topic,” LaRouche writes. “Reality is not where one had been dumped by a trolley-car conductor at the end of a line; it lies within the process by means of which you, for example, might have discovered the meaning of that way which leads toward that destination.”

How Much Longer Will We Tolerate These Parasites?  

by John Hoefle

President Bush praises free trade and decries big government, while presiding over the corporatization of large swaths of the economy. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson is on his third bailout plan, as his master plans fall apart even before they can be implemented. And British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is doing all he can to implement a global bankers’ dictatorship.

Proposed Act of 1993: Nationalize the Federal Reserve  

This proposed legislation was issued by LaRouche’s 1992 Presidential campaign, LaRouche for President: Independents for Economic Recovery.

Israel: Renewed Peace Effort or Another Assassination?

by Dean Andromidas

The upcoming elections could be a real turning point, where Israel could either move to peace with its neighbors, through embracing the Arab Peace Initiative, or it could continue on a path which would inevitably lead to more war. Concretely, the danger is an election victory by Benjamin Netanyahu, chairman of the Likud Party.

The Nuclear Power Revolution: Modular High-Temperature Reactors Can Change the World

by Marjorie Mazel Hecht

The fourth-generation modular high-temperature reactors (HTRs) are meltdown-proof, affordable, mass-producible, quick to construct, and suitable for use in industrializing the developing sector. The key to these new reactors is in their unique fuel: Each tiny fuel particle has its own “containment building.”
