LaRouche Webcast:
`Pulling This Nation Together Now!'
Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. gave this webcast address on Sept. 3, fielding questions from Senate offices and others on how to deal with the disaster of Hurricane Katrina, and the imminent threat of a blowout of the global financial-monetary system.
Congress Swept Up
In Revolutionary Tide
Despite frantic attempts by the Bush Administration to exonerate itself from an avalanche of charges of criminal negligence and malfeasance in the face of the worst domestic disaster in American history, it seems that nothing can stop what Lyndon LaRouche has called the "incoming tide" of a cultural paradigm-shift against the insanity of the Bush-Cheney crowd.

Zepp-LaRouche Is Shaping
Crucial Election in Germany
With prodding from the campaign of BüSo candidate for Chancellor Helga Zepp-LaRouche, incumbent Chancellor Gerhard Schröder finally decided to take up two crucial issues in the election: an economic recovery program, and a categorical "no" to a war on Iran. His attack on those who are speculating on oil prices is particularly significant—if he follows it up with action.

Obtuse Angles in Post-Soviet Ideology:
Russia's Dark Side of the Spoon
By Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. "When we take into account the very serious, and often globally outstanding accomplishments of Russian and Soviet science, as these are only typified by the work of Mendeleyev and Vernadsky, the influence of certain mystically wild-eyed strains within parts of the Russian intelligentsia today, can only be attributed to some special, exceptional kind of disturbing factor in Russian science, including its Soviet manifestation, a corruption akin to the rampant `spoon-bender' phenomenon familiar to us as among the leading neo-conservatives and assorted religious fanatics in both the United Kingdom and the U.S.A. itself."
