This increased military and political tension in the region, if not resolved, can quickly lead to its intended consequence: thermonuclear warfare.

  • Behind the Shutdown/ Debt Ceiling Swindle:
    Wall Street Orders Obama To Kill Glass-Steagall

    An Oct. 5 LaRouchePAC release, issued in the name of Lyndon LaRouche, intended to spur an emergency mobilization to ram through Glass-Steagall as the unique solution to the economic/financial/political crisis. 'Wall Street had demanded that President Barack Obama stop the reinstatement of Glass-Steagall at all costs, and instead move ahead with more bailouts and bail-in looting of the American people to preserve Wall Street's thoroughly bankrupt system.'
  • Sare Campaign Issues the Goods on Christie
    Diane Sare's campaign for Governor of New Jersey has released a six-page dossier on the likely 2016 Republican Presidential candidate, titled, 'Chris Christie: Part III of the Bush-Obama Nightmare.'
