America Needs a Mass Movement for Economic Development:
Let's Join the BRICS To Rebuild the World Economy!

Conference Program

FLASH:  The New York Times today, February 5, 2015, finally covered the fight to declassify the 28 pages of the 2002 Joint Congressional Intelligence Committee report on 9/11 co-chaired by Senator Bob Graham. The Schiller Institute has played a leading role in the United States with respect to this initiative from its inception. Its Congressional sponsor, Walter Jones (R-NC) has addressed several Schiller Institute conferences via video. This was the initiative expressed in an October town meeting in Harlem, that LaRouche characterized as the beginning of "the Manhattan Project," a non-stop organizing process intended to restore Alexander Hamilton's American System of physical economy to the United States.

Today, we are witnessing the full and final collapse of the Anglo-Dutch imperial system. Wall Street is bankrupt, no matter what its banks and press say to the contrary. They can only threaten "species extinction" through total war. But the Schiller Institute has created and advanced an alternative whose time has come.
 
Despite the looming threat of thermonuclear extinction, as seen in the Ukraine crisis, the means to overturn the present headlong rush to disaster are fully within each American's grasp. There is no excuse for cowardice in the present world strategic situation. As it was for FDR in 1932, so it is today: "The only thing we have to fear is, fear itself--nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror, which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."
 
The difference, today, is that there is no Franklin Roosevelt to mobilize the American people. An offer by President Xi Jinping for the United States to join the one peaceful pathway out of the complete bankruptcy of Wall Street, the City of London, and the trans-Atlantic monetary and financial system--full cooperation with the alternative offered by the "BRICS nations"--Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, and their allies --has been met with silence. So we, the people of the United States, will join a mass movement for the World Land-Bridge that Helga and Lyndon LaRouche have originated, and that half the world is now happily adopting.
 
For this purpose, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder and chair of the Schiller Institute, during her current tour of several European capitals to promote the World Land Bridge, said in Copenhagen:
 
"Since the repeal of the Glass Steagall Act in 1999, which eliminated any banking regulation, the world has fallen into the hands of predators, who enrich the few, at the expense and suffering of billions of human beings, with the help of a financial system, that has essentially become a big casino. There is an enormous unpayable derivatives debt, which is the real cause of the war danger."

"There is, right now, a big fight for the true identity of the United States. There is also a serious fight to end the dictatorial power of Wall Street over the Congress, with the reintroduction of the Glass Steagall law. If the USA went back to its original economic system, it could cooperate very well with the new credit institutions of the BRICS nations, such as the New Development Bank, and the AIIB (Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank). Then the United States could return to the foreign policy of John Quincy Adams, ... and that is exactly the foreign policy concept of Xi Jinping, with his win-win approach of building the new Silk Road, or Narendra Modi or  Vladimir Putin."
 
"Everything will depend on our ability to put the alternative of a new paradigm of collaboration on the agenda in time. Mankind has reached a branching point: either we can define our common interest from the standpoint of the future, or we may not exist. That is why the Schiller Institute is presently involved in an international campaign, to convince more and more individuals and institutions, that joining hands for the common aims of mankind, is the only reasonable alternative to World War III."
