Every part of the planet is now facing the choice offered by two competing voices. “The question is the crisis,” Lyndon LaRouche stated starkly in his Feb. 27 dialogue with the Manhattan Project. “Are you going to die? Are you going to live? And that’s it, two voices.”
Half of humanity—the BRICS and allies, led by Russia and China—has already chosen to live, and is offering to help save the rest of the planet. The trans-Atlantic sector has, so far, chosen to die. What else does it mean to continue tolerating Wall Street, and leaving the evil killer Obama in the White House? What else does it mean when we countenance the current Presidential election charade, and when we allow formerly productive workers to kill themselves in record numbers, with drugs, alcohol, and outright suicide? What of the destruction of NASA, and the creative, mission-oriented outlook it represented?
However, Russian President Putin’s flanking intervention into the Syrian, and broader regional situation, beginning in September 2015, has dramatically reshaped the entire geometry of global affairs. Obama, despite himself, has been boxed into cooperating with Russia in the current Syria ceasefire, which continues to hold as the American and Russian militaries increasingly coordinate. Dramatic, positive changes are unfolding in Iran, Egypt, and other nations that have chosen to ally with the BRICS process. And the population inside the United States— despite decades of being dumbed down into pragmatism by the British, and now being suffocated by an electoral Roman Circus—are responding with unfamiliar optimism to LaRouche movement organizing, which is uniquely resonant with the current policy thrust of both Putin and the Chinese government of Xi Jinping. After all, many of their policies, most emphatically the New Silk Road, were initially designed and promoted by Lyndon and Helga LaRouche.
Exemplary of this incipient Renaissance is the highly successful Schiller Institute conference held Feb. 27 “in the shadow of the Johnson Space Center” in Texas, featuring LPAC National Committee member and former Democratic Congressional candidate Kesha Rogers, which reactivated and reinvigorated NASA veterans and others around our required mission: that Man is ultimately a space-based species of Reason, as Rogers emphasized. Similar, changed receptiveness was evident in the recent Seattle conference addressed by Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the Georgetown University event keynoted by Matthew Ogden, in LaRouche movement World Land-Bridge conferences in Hermosillo (Mexico) and Lima (Peru), and elsewhere.
It is the LaRouche organization’s unique “devotion to creative discovery,” as LaRouche described it in his Manhattan Project discussion, and only that, which puts us in a position to shape global developments for the Good. But it also imposes on us rigorous internal conditions, which require us to clarify when organizations are not part of that commitment, and thereby become barriers to the success of our endeavors.
“The whole purpose of mankind is the ability of mankind, to make discoveries, which the discoverer will never fully harvest,” LaRouche stated to the Manhattan Project gathering. “But only the persons who are of that spirit of behavior will be able to deliver an example of what is necessary, for the future of mankind.”
