Former President George H.W. Bush, a.k.a. "Bush 41," no doubt vividly recalls the October 1975 Ford Administration purge that brought him in as Director of Central Intelligence, and brought Gen. Brent Scowcroft in as National Security Adviser. That event came to be known as the "October Surprise."
Bush 41 ought to counsel his son, the current President (a.k.a. "Bush 43"), to launch a "September Surprise," to begin the process of purging his Administration of a nest of Israeli agents of influence who, if left in place through the end of this month, will likely succeed in dragging the United States and much of the rest of the world into a Clash of Civilizations war beginning with Iraq that will sweep the entire planet into the bloody maelstrom of a 14th-century-like New Dark Age.
The "cabal" of Israeli Likud agents is deeply penetrated into the civilian staff of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, the senior policy staff in the Office of Vice President Dick Cheney, and in several crucial policy pockets at the State Department. Some leading "cabalists" were at the top of the list of suspected collaborators of convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard including Richard Perle, head of the Defense Policy Board.
Vice President Cheney's chief of staff and national security adviser, Lewis Libby, was a Yale protégé of Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz in 1973, and served as his State Department and Pentagon deputy in the Reagan and Bush 41 Administrations. Other Israeli assets inside Cheney's office include chief foreign policy aide John Hannah, who previously worked for the leading Israeli think-tank in Washington, the Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP); and Eric Edelman, a former Wolfowitz deputy at the Bush 41 Pentagon.
Incest is the favorite pastime inside the Washington Beltway, so the existence of this cabal might not shock many jaded Washington observers. But the character of this network is that they have publicly declared themselves to be at the service of the Israeli Likud regime.

This week is the proper time to celebrate and revive the profound concepts which underlie mankind's highest achievement in statecraft, the United States Constitution.
Unlike any other Constitution in the world, the U.S. document is defined by a statement of principle, contained in the Preamble, which reads as follows:
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common Defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
This statement, not the specific measures specified for implementing these purposes, is what makes the U.S. Constitution absolutely unique. As America's leading statesman Lyndon LaRouche put it in a recent leaflet, there are essentially three universal principles expressed by the Preamble:
*First, the universal principle of perfect sovereignty.
*Second, the universal principle of the general welfare, which can also been indicated by the term the "common good."
*Third, the universal principle of posterity, which demands that today's actions be in the interest of future generations, as well as ourselves.
Clearly, the thrust of these principles has not always been carried out by the governments of the United States, in practice. But the standard has been established to which every specific Administration, political office holder, and the American people themselves, should be held accountable.
To fully understand these principles, requires knowing the history of the fight for the Constitution, and the fight over its interpretation over the past 215 years. Most crucial to this history, is the role played by our nation's leading Founding Father, Benjamin Franklin.
As elaborated by EIR Law Editor Edward Spannaus, in an article in the May 4, 2001 EIR, the establishment of the concept of the General Welfare as a bedrock principle in the Constitution, both in the Preamble and Article I, Section 8, must be credited directly to Franklin, who had led the battle for the establishment of the American republic for at least 60 years prior to the Constitution's drafting. Indeed, Franklin's draft of the Articles of Confederation, submitted in 1775, reads like the first draft of the Preamble:
