Publisher's Synopsis
From the Editors: Pessimists, give it up. If you open your eyes and your mind to the transformations which are already ongoing in the world today, you will find you have no choice but to throw yourselves into the fight for a truly human future for mankind, a future that is now visible on the horizon.This week's feature by Helga Zepp-LaRouche gives you a beautiful foretaste of that future. It is a preprint of the introduction to an upcoming Special Report on the World Land-Bridge that EIR is producing, but we rushed to put it into circulation because it captures the current transformation underway (Feature). That reality is also underscored by the attention which the Russian and Chinese media are giving to the input of both Lyndon and Helga LaRouche-as you will see in our coverage from Voice of Russia/Ria Novosti and China's Xinhua (International).Complementary to Zepp-LaRouche's presentation is our Science feature, which further pursues the implementation of the helium-3 perspective which China is undertaking. Lyndon LaRouche's Aug. 22 webcast, whose transcript we run in this issue, provides an overview on how to approach this last week's strategic developments. LaRouche's response to a question from Washington-based institutions, on the situation around the ISIS horror in Southwest Asia, is critical, and is elaborated in Jeffrey Steinberg's International lead. LaRouche's responses to questions on U.S. issues, and economic developments, emphasize the need to take the standpoint of Prometheus, and the need for increasing the productive powers of labor, to actually solve the crises before us. The rest of the issue updates areas of major breaking developments. In Economics, we provide the latest on Argentina's battle against the vulture funds, and EIR's own top-down approach to the Ebola crisis, which is now being criminally under-resourced, with potentially disastrous results for the planet. On the Southwest Asia wars, we bring to bear our indepth knowledge of the British Empire's use of international terrorism, to expose just how that Empire's junior partner, Saudi Arabia, has created ISIS (International). We also update the movement to expose the Saudi role in 9/11 by the release of the 28 pages of the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry Report. Domestically, we bring you a report on the battle over Glass-Steagall at the recent State Legislatures' conference (National).
