Venezuela Fiasco Lays Bare
Policy Chaos in Washington

Hugo Chávez's ouster from Venezuela's Presidency and return to power within 48 hours, wrecked the precious few possibilities for restoring national unity without civil war. Such civil war is now the order of the day not only in Venezuela, but across Ibero-America. With governments being shattered by their own servile adherence to globalization, the region is rapidly becoming polarized between two equally chaotic forces: the "leftist" FARC-allied forces which Chávez represents; and the "rightist" would-be imitators of Chile's Augusto Pinochet, with their pretensions of imposing by force, the Mont Pelerin Society's destruction of the nation-state.

LaRouche Tells Bush:
Do Not Repeat Bill Clinton's Mistake!

If President Bush "is going to escape successfully from the `lame duck' trap being set for him" by the Lieberman-Brzezinski cabal, LaRouche writes, he must tell himself: " `Forget the election-campaign. Do what neither Senator Lieberman nor Al Gore would be capable of doing: Think like the kind of President our Constitution implies.' Remember President Eisenhower and the Suez Crisis."
