In Pope Francis’ last address, his Easter “Urbi
et Orbi”, he stated: “I would like us to renew our hope that peace
is possible!” This is an important declaration considering that many
have given up on peace being possible in the world, especially when it
comes to the conflict of the Middle East. But if we give up on peace,
we also accept the continuation of the suffering and killing of
civilians taking place in Gaza and many other parts of the world. As
the Pope also said in his address:
I think of the people of Gaza, and its Christian community in
particular, where the terrible conflict continues to cause death and
destruction and to create a dramatic and deplorable humanitarian
sitution. I appeal to the warring parties: call a ceasefire, release
the hostages and come to the aid of a starving people….
Peace is possible for the entire world, and it would be easier for
Americans to see this potential if they were to understand what the
New Paradigm led by the BRICS nations represented. Trump clearly does
not understand this process, which is evident in his destructive trade
war. But much of the world has moved forward and that process is
unstoppable. Trump has run up against this boundary condition, and has
therefore been forced to reduce the exorbitant 145% tariff rate he has
imposed on China. U.S. Treasury Secretary, Scott Besset, warned that
the China trade war is “unsustainable”. Indeed, imposing tariffs on
China, much like the sanctions imposed on Russia, will harm China far
less than it will harm the United States.
The Trump administration has not given up on peace being possible
between Russia and the United States, but there are serious obstacles
to overcome. The United States pulled out of a meeting of foreign
ministers, which was set to take place in London, because Zelenskyy
refused to attend. Zelenskyy is continuing to insist that Crimea
should not be a part of Russia and instead should be returned to
Ukrainian territory. Trump said that Zelenskyy is making it difficult
to settle the war, and that it’s harder to deal with him than with
Russia.
The LaRouche Organization and the Schiller Institute play a
uniquely historic role in creating world wide peace. The ideas of
Lyndon LaRouche and his wife Helga Zepp-LaRouche continue to be an
inpiration and absolute necessity for many in the world who are
turning to the LaRouche Organization's unique solutions to the global
crisis, ideas that are based on the universality of mankind, and that
the way to peace lies in the development and creative progress for
all. In this light, it is no wonder that one of the leading
publications in Egypt, Al-Masry Al-Youm, the largest
independent (not state-owned) daily in the country, published a full-page
interview on the front page with Hussein Askary, the Schiller
Institute’s West Asia Coordinator. The interview covered key topics
such as who Lyndon LaRouche was and a detailed discussion of his Oasis
Plan proposal for bringing peace to the Middle East.

Starting At 10am
(EDT)! This Week's LaRouche Show: |
In May of 1994, Lyndon LaRouche delivered a speech just
outside of Washington, D.C. reporting on his recently concluded
six-day trip to Moscow where he had met with leading members of the
Russian intelligentsia. In this presentation, LaRouche clearly laid
out the exciting perspective of a U.S-Russia-China collaboration to
achieve lasting peace through global economic development.
With the potential for a renewed US-Russia partnership back
on the table, a thorough study of Lyndon LaRouche's groundbreaking
initiatives with top thinkers and policy makers in the former Soviet
Union is a "must read" for any serious students of American foreign
policy.

Humanity At the
Junction of History: Which Way Forward? |
|
On April 25,1945, eighty years ago, American and Soviet troops met
at the Elbe River in Torgau, Germany, finally cutting through Nazi
lines. Those troops expressed happiness upon meeting each other, and
engaged in heartfelt exchanges on the cusp of victory, in a war that
would account, ultimately, for perhaps 100 million dead worldwide.
Their meeting produced what was termed the “Spirit of the Elbe,”
dedicated to the idea that all nations of the world must find a common
path to diplomacy without resorting to war, and prevent such a
catastrophic conflict as World War II from ever happening again.
Look in a positive way, then, from the standpoint of that “Spirit
of the Elbe,” to the ongoing negotiations between the United States
and Russia, developing, despite interference from British and other
agencies.
In our world full of turbulence, there are certain anomalies
occurring which indicate a significant process of change and
transformation that has the potential to “cross the Elbe” from the old
‘rules-based order’ to a new paradigm based on cooperation and mutual
benefit between nations.

Friday Symposium:
April 25, 2025, marks the 80th anniversary of the famous "Meeting
at the Elbe" when the Russian and American troops crossed the Elbe
River at Torgau, Germany, breaking the Nazi lines after more than four
years of bloody war. The Soviet Union had lost 27 million lives, and
over 400,000 Americans gave their last "measure of devotion" to defeat
the Nazi scourge.
Veteran LaRouche organizer Joe Jennings joins Diane to again visit
the founding of the United States of America, but with particular
emphasis on our collaboration with Russia.
