The following statement was issued by the LaRouche in 2004 Presidential campaign committee on July 29, 2003.
The right-wing Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) with its right-wing suburban twist, is to today's Republican far right what Henry 'Scoop' Jackson's gang was to the frankly racist 'Southern Strategy' of Richard Nixon. Currently that DLC is exerting a ruinous, if waning degree of control over the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Therefore, no one should be surprised that the current polls show little net difference between the candidacy of incumbent President George W. Bush and the pitiful pack of nine DNC-managed rivals for my own 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination. If the Democrats would dump the DLC and its Tweedledee copying of the right-wing rhetoric of Tweedledum Bush, Bush's re-election-campaign would already be trailing hopelessly far behind.

Lowry, who would have been 60 in August, was a leader in the LaRouche movement, a member of the National Committee of the International Caucus of Labor Committees, anda former history professor who had left that career to work with LaRouchethe author (1988) of a seminal work of the history of America leading up to the American Revolution: How the Nation Was Won: America's Untold Story, Volume I, 1630-1754.
LaRouche Responds To 'Pure Politics' Questions
Presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche replied on July 27 to the following set of questions submitted by Paige Rohe for PurePolitics.com. The interview has also been posted on the website.
...Q: In light of your decades-long struggle against charges of conspiracy by the U.S. government, how do you think this would affect your relationship with the CIA, FBI, and Department of State were you to be elected President?
LaRouche: A Short Definition of Synarchism
"Synarchism" is a name adopted during the Twentieth Century for an occult freemasonic sect, known as the Martinists, based on worship of the tradition of the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. During the interval from the early 1920s through 1945, it was officially classed by U.S.A. and other nations' intelligence services under the file name of "Synarchism: Nazi/Communist...

In the midst of the hue and cry being raised today about "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq, North Korea, and Iran, it is sobering to reflect upon the fact that the only nation to have unleashed real weapons of mass destruction upon the worldi.e., a nuclear bombhas been the United States. That event occurred on Aug. 6, 1945, when U.S. planes dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan (and again a few days later, when the U.S. bombed Nagasaki).
In contrast to biological and chemical weapons, the detonation of a nuclear bomb kills en masse. Sixty-six thousand people were killed in Hiroshima, and 39,000 three days later in Nagasaki. Much of the death resulted from the firestorms caused by the explosions of the bombs.
What must be understood, is that the dropping of these bombs was no more necessary than the war against Iraq. Yes, Japan was a major military power which was warring against the United States, but at the point that the decision was made to drop the bomb, the Japanese Emperor was already negotiating, through Vatican channels, on the same terms of surrender that were accepted after the bombings.
No, this bombing was not undertaken for military purposes, but in the interest of asserting the One World Government plan which none other than that "pacifist" Bertrand Russell advocated. Russell, in the immediate postwar years, advocated a preventive war against the Soviet Union, implicitly a nuclear war. Of course, the Soviets could evade this, Russell said in an interview with BBC in 1959, if they submitted to his plan for a One World Government which would have a monopoly on serious armed force.
In a September 1946 report in The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, Russell said: "It is entirely clear that there is only one way in which great wars can be permanently prevented, and that is the establishment of an international government with a monopoly of serious armed force.... An international government, if it is to be able to preserve peace, must have the only atomic bombs, the only plant for producing them, the only air force, the only battleships, and generally whatever is necessary to make it irresistible."
If that sounds to you like the conception of the American imperialist Chickenhawks today, that is not far off. What Russell was not able to accomplish in the immediate postwar period, they are close to accomplishing today.

The Synarchist Threat Since 9/11: Why Cheney Must Go
by Jeffrey Steinberg
This presentation was given by telephone on July 26 to a national conference of the Citizens Electoral Councils, the Australian movement of co-thinkers of U.S. Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche.
The July 22 pre-planned and flaunted assassinations in Mosul of Saddam Hussein's two sons, violated standing U.S. military policy since World WarII, and constituted the latest evidence of the readiness of Vice President Cheney and Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld to flout all the international conventions of war, to pursue an actually fascist, aggressive war policy.

by Claudio Celani
In a more and more bankrupted European economy, the debate grows for the adoption of the 'neo-Colbertist' policy represented by Italian Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti's 'European Action for Growth' plan.

Did Cheney and Co. Cook Korea Intelligence, Too?
by Kathy Wolfe
Vice President Dick Cheney, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and their neo-conservative theorists have refused to rule out an American military first strike on North Korea, citing allegations of a North Korean nuclear threat. Rumsfeld adviser Richard Perle, of the Defense Policy Board, said on June 13 that Washington 'cannot exclude the kind of surgical strike we saw in 1981,' on Iraq's Osirak nuclear facility, this time by the United States against North Korea (the D.P.R.K.).

by Ramtanu Maitra
In several discussions with Pakistani analyst Ahmed Rashid in mid-July, Afghan President Hamid Karzai expressed his deep concern at the hostile posture of the Pakistani troops along the borders of his country. Karzai has also accused Pakistan of carrying out a rampant insurgency within Afghanistan, and has made clear to Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf that Afghanistan cannot be considered as the 'strategic depth' for the Pakistani Armya phrase used by the pro-Taliban Pakistani Army officers repeatedlyand that the only way such a strategic depth can be established is through friendship.

Rumsfeld Assassination Policy Violates U.S. Military, Legal Tradition
by Edward Spannaus
At the end of World War II, when the Allies were facing the question of how to deal with Nazi leaders, whose crimes were on a scale far beyond anything attributed to Saddam Hussein or other Iraqi leaders, the majority of the Allies came down foursquare against carrying out summary executions of war criminals after the war, and rather supported the creation of an international tribunal to try top Nazis. This was the consistent position of Franklin D. Roosevelt for the United States, as well as of France's Charles de Gaulle, and the Soviet Union's Josef Stalin.
Cheney Chicanery
by Ray McGovern
Ray McGovern, a co-founder of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), chaired National Intelligence Estimates (NIEs) and prepared/briefed the President's Daily Brief during his 27-year career at the Central Intelligence Agency. On July 14, VIPS sent a 'Memorandum for the President' to President Bush, urging him to ask for Vice President Cheney's immediate resignation (see EIR, July 25).
Asked by the press why VIPS is calling for Cheney's resignation, he answered, 'The evidence on Cheney is just simply more comprehensive than the evidence on all the rest of the folks. . . . All the evidence points to him as the prime mover behind this magnificent deception.'
