Planetary Defense:
An Extraterrestrial Imperative
By a LaRouchePAC Basement Research Team
The worlds population is still reeling from last years natural disasters. Japan, a first-world nation, was brought to its knees by a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami in March; the US faced a record number of weather-related disasters; East Africa was hit with the worst drought in over half a century, putting 13 million people at risk; and the list goes on. If we find ourselves so vulnerable to threats which should be predictable, what hope do we have in the face of threats never before encountered?
In one sense, such natural disasters cannot be separated from those of man's making, such as the twin crises of the collapse of the trans-Atlantic-centered global financial system and the immediate specter of thermonuclear war. Both underscore the imperative to redirect global policy away from the contrived conflicts of oligarchical manipulation, which have kept mankind in a state of relative infancy, toward the conscious evolution of the human species. Recently, circles in Russia have proposed to judo the current insanity of a drive towards war by invoking Lyndon LaRouches principle of the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). Termed the Strategic Defense of Earth (SDE), this new initiative would focus on cooperation between the USA and Russia for missile defense, as well as defense against the threat of asteroid or comet impacts. This is not the stuff of science fiction, as this very real threat was underscored by the recent near-miss of asteroid 2005 YU55....

- Planetary Defense
By a Basement Research Team.
Do we really have a choice of whether we want to progress or not? Does the universe ever stand still, waiting for us to make that decision? As the dinosaurs witnessed, the answer is no. Past and future threats to human lives, including extreme weather events, CMEs, earthquakes, asteroids, and more, show us that the ultimate defense in a developing and inherently creative universe is progress. What is presented in this LaRouchePAC policy paper is the ultimate war avoidance strategy.

We have reached a crucial moment in Britain's drive for thermonuclear confrontation.
