Edward Teller Was Right at Erice:
The Threat Against Mankind
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Thursday, August 16, 2012
The following is a report bearing upon the current prospects for the survival of mankind. I include within it, not only the consideration of presently crucial trends and developments, but add, and will conclude with some necessary, deeper references to the roots of these matters of forecasting, with emphasis on roots dating from the late 1950s through the 1970s and 1980s.
The first issue of principle to be kept in mind, in reading the report as a whole, is the pathological implications of reliance on the intrinsically incompetent, but still popular, statistical-mathematical modes of economic forecasting. However, let us come to that point in the history of this process in due course. First, let us consider the immediate crisis-situation itself.
At this present moment, there are two mutually contradictory options respecting the continued survival of the human species. One, is typified by the present lurch toward virtually global thermonuclear war, an option which is presently centered in the strategic policies of either U.S. President Barack Obama himself, or someone using Obama as if he were a mere puppet. The only realistic choice of alternative to that at the present point of the trans-Atlantic economic-breakdown crisis, would be the triple-point package which I have presented as what would be the only presently available alternative to a currently onrushing economic breakdown crisis. ...

- Edward Teller Was Right at Erice:
The Threat Against Mankind
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
'At this present moment, there are two mutually contradictory options respecting the continued survival of the human species': the lurch toward global thermonuclear war, centered on the strategic policies of President Obama; or the alternative of LaRouche's three-point program. However, LaRouche writes, the successful landing on Mars of the Curiosity rover brings us to the threshold of a new age for mankind, in which we can secure the continued existence of our species, and its future out into the Solar System and beyond.
World News
- It's Obama Who Is Pushing Toward Thermonuclear War
Lyndon LaRouche's 2009 warning that Barack Obama is a pathological narcissist in the image of Emperor Nero, has proved right in spades: His illegal regime-change war in Libya; the extra-judicial assassinations of American citizens; the drone killings, all point to the need to remove him from office now.
- Military Experts Provide Alternative to Obama's War
Harvard defense analyst Graham Allison sounds the alarm about the danger of a U.S.-Russian nuclear confrontation, in a Financial Times op-ed, entitled 'Thucydides' trap has been sprung in the Pacific.' He offers an alternative: 'Mutual Assured Stability.'
- The EU's Bank Bailout Policies Are Murdering Europe's People
The EU policy of bailing out the banks in hopes of 'saving' the euro is destroying the only basis for eventual recovery: Europe's people. The most critical case now is Greece, but Spain, Portugal, Ireland, and Italy are close behind.
- Budget Sequestration:
Obama's Coup Against Congress Gathers Steam
If Congress fails to pass a budget which includes over $1 trillion in cuts, then the mechanism known as 'sequestration' will swing through the entire discretionary budget like an axe—and it will be Americans whose blood will be shed.
- Profiles in Courage:
Rachel Brown Fights for Kennedy's Legacy
LaRouche Democrat Rachel Brown, who became nationally famous for dispatching Barney Frank during the 2010 Congressional campaign, in a video that went viral, is running again in the Massachusetts Democratic Primary where her opponent is Joe Kennedy III, grandson of Robert Kennedy.

Drone War on Pakistan

- SDI Today!:
Next, Beyond Mars
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
The successful landing of Curiosity on Mars, presents us with a matter of grave urgency: 'that what has been mistreated as 'empty space' is filled with what must now be considered as deadly, and some more or less immediately mortal threats to the continued existence of our human species, threats which we must prepare ourselves to evade or overcome otherwise.'
