IPC Meeting #91 w. Helga Zepp LaRouche – Cultivate a Higher Level of Statecraft

03/01/25 • 78 min

We can agree with Sir Keir Starmer on one thing: this is "a world where everything has changed." Those were the words that the flummoxed British Prime Minister used in a speech to the House of Commons on Feb. 25, as he nervously prepared for a meeting at the White House with President Donald Trump on Feb. 27. As the British Monarchy’s envoy, Starmer’s mission is to salvage, at all costs, the Churchillian "British-American Special Relationship," through which the City of London and Wall Street have maintained their control over a bankrupt unipolar world order, ever since FDR’s untimely death. Starmer’s second objective in Washington is to ensure that peace does not break out in Ukraine, that presidents Trump and President Putin do not succeed in putting an end to the carnage. But Starmer’s problem is that the world has changed drastically as a result of the Feb. 12 phone conversation between Trump and Putin, followed by high-level diplomatic discussions between their representatives in Riyadh on Feb. 18. Not only are both sides committed to normalizing their relations, and to work out a peace that addresses the underlying causes that led to the war; the two nations have even begun to talk about possible joint economic cooperation on mutually beneficial projects. "The US is now the enemy of the West," exclaimed the Financial Times’s Chief Economic Commentator, Commander of the British Empire (CBE) Martin Wolf. London’s Economist magazine agreed: "Faced with a collapsing transatlantic alliance, stunned European leaders this week began a diplomatic effort to salvage what is left of it." Zepp-LaRouche summarized the situation: "I have the feeling that the European elites have really lost the connection to reality for such a long time, that they cannot adjust to a changing strategic situation... When someone has lost all touch with reality, you normally call them insane." "Unless we cultivate a higher level of statecraft," Zepp-LaRouche warned, "we won’t get out of the pit." It has never been more important to bring together the forces for peace in the world than this very moment. The clear freakout from the Empire at the thought of losing their geopolitical hold on the Global Majority, as well as the United States, is palpable. Join the International Peace Coalition this Friday at 11am ET with peace leaders from around the world.

TLO Friday Symposium w. Diane Sare – End The U.S.-British Special Relationship!

Immediately following the death of President Franklin Roosevelt, Britain's imperial elite moved swiftly to re-assert their "Great Game" geopolitical control of the planet through perpetual war by usurping the "brawn" of their lost colony, the United States, to enforce their murderous agenda. Since then, every rotten American policy, from the dropping of two atomic bombs to the Vietnam War and post 9/11 "forever wars," has been the result of the subservience of a corrupt faction of the US intelligence community to this imperial "special relationship," so named by Winston Churchill in 1946. Accordingly, all major opponents to this servile role of the United States to the empire she defeated in revolution, have been persecuted, marginalized, or assassinated. Now, on the eve of the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, it is past time to end this insanity which has brought to world to the brink of nuclear war, and return the United States to her anti-colonial heritage. Toward this end, The LaRouche Organization has released a 4-page dossier 'For America’s 250th Birthday: Celebrate American Independence! End The U.S.-British Special Relationship!' which can be downloaded, printed and circulated. https://laroucheorganization.com/arti... This week Diane will be joined by Manhattan Project coordinator Dennis Speed to spell out our strategy for victory in this historic campaign.

Daily Update w. Harley Schlanger March 3rd – Sir Keir Leads the Coalition of the Willing

European leaders, who are on the whole unpopular and presiding over stagnant or collapsing economies, rejected President Trump's call to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine. Instead, they rallied support for Zelenskyy and pledged billions of Euros to fund a lost war. Sir Keir Starmer is leading the charge, committing the UK to spend billions of Pounds for war, when poverty levels have risen to 18%. He is under pressure from the imperial war hawks of the City of London to rescue the Special Relationship. What is necessary is an awakening of people living under the bubble of the EU and NATO, to face reality of the need to break with geopolitics, and join the Global Majority in building a new security and development architecture.
