A Reflection on Charles de Gaulle: ‘A Europe of the Nations’
Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Lyndon LaRouche’s reflections on the memoirs of the great World War II leader Charles de Gaulle, who, as a creative genius, was capable of changing over the course of his lifetime, to become a world statesman, as well as a patriot of the French nation. The story begins with the infamous Paris meeting of May 1960, among Presidents de Gaulle and Eisenhower, Prime Minister Macmillan, and the British “Leporello,” Soviet leader Khrushchov. It was Khrushchov’s sabotage of that meeting, to the great consternation of the French and American leaders, that set into motion the events that followed. The great tragedy that befell the nations of the trans-Altantic region, included the Cold War, the war in Indochina, and the subsequent destruction of the economies of those nations by British monetarist imperialism.

Global Mass Strike Spreads; Glass-Steagall Only Solution
Nancy Spannaus
The global mass-strike process, which erupted in North Africa in early January, and brought down the Tunisian and Egyptian governments within weeks, has now surfaced throughout the entire Maghreb-Mideast region, the United States, and Western Europe, specifically Germany. As LaRouche noted on March 2, this process “is a signal of the countdown for the collapse of the world system, the world monetary-financial system, which is in progress right now.”

An Imperial Love Affair: Tony and Lizzie and Bandar and Muammar
Jeffrey Steinberg and Scott Thompson
From the time took office as Prime Minister, in May 1997, Tony Blair, along with top officials of MI6, Lord Jacob Rothschild, Baroness Liz Symons, and leading members of the British Royal Family, have promoted Muammar Qaddafi, and fostered Libya’s growing political and economic ties with Britain, up to the present moment, as the Libyan dictator goes through his final “Hitler in the bunker” demise. Among the dramatis personae is a claque of British oligarchs, and their ally, Saudi Prince Bandar; at the center of the action, was the Pan Am 103 bombing, and the dirty deal struck with Qaddafi, to the benefit of Bandar and BAE.
