Best of Times, Worst of Times — Find Those Who Wish To Do Good

Friedrich Schiller spoke of those who seek the truth through beauty. Shelley spoke of those revolutionary moments in history when average people become capable of comprehending profound truths about man and nature.

We are now at such a time. Terrorism is on the run; the Chinese and the Russians are building great projects around the world, and the populations in the West are demonstrating through elections, one after another, that they will no longer tolerate the economic decay, the perpetual “regime change” warfare, nor the dying Empire’s threat of war against Russia and China.

And yet the discredited and discarded leadership of the old paradigm, pretending that they still have their lost power, are desperately trying to provoke a world war. The level of pure hysteria is truly astonishing. If one were to believe Obama, or Angela Merkel, or the British leadership, defeating al Qaeda in Aleppo is a genocidal disaster; the US election was stolen from Obama’s clone Hillary Clinton by Vladimir Putin; Putin is now moving to steal the German election, and Global Warming is going to destroy the world unless we stop human progress.

This is laughable, but it is no laughing matter. Recall that EIR reported in June that NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg told the press, “A severe cyber attack may be classified as a case for the Alliance. Then NATO can and must react. How, that will depend on the severity of the attack” — i.e., NATO may respond to a hacking attack with conventional weapons, or nuclear weapons, under NATO Article V.

In hearing the swan songs of these neocon imperial lords, recall the “Big Lie” of Joseph Goebbels: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie.”

We have been told a million times that it is “known” that the Russians hacked western computers in order to undermine western “democracy” and elect Donald Trump. Trump is absolutely correct to ask how anyone can believe such nonsense after the same corrupted elements of the intelligence community assured us of Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction, launching the genocidal Hell of the past thirteen years in the Mideast; and also assured the U.S. Congress that the NSA carried out no mass surveillance of the U.S. citizenry, as James Clapper did before the Snowden revelations — the same James Clapper whom Obama has called upon to “investigate” Russian “subversion” of the U.S. electoral process.

There is no question that a growing number of people across the Western world — both political leaders and average citizens — are recognizing the evil of the old paradigm, and are choosing to do good in the face of evil. The world is being renewed by the New Silk Road process launched by China, working with the Eurasian Economic Union, ASEAN, the BRICS, the SCO, — over 100 nations across Eurasia, Africa, and Ibero-America who want to create a future for their nations and for the world as a whole. America and the EU are not excluded from the process — they are intentionally isolating themselves; denying their own populations the right to take part in this revolutionary new paradigm for the development of our planet and our universe.

Find those people who want to do good, Lyndon LaRouche told his association today. It is increasingly easy to distinguish between those who want to preserve the power of the dying Empire, in spite of Hell, and those who want to participate in creating a dignified, creative and prosperous future for all mankind.
