Larouche's June 27 Webcast: 'Britain Delenda Est' Click here for Full Issue of EIR Volume 36, Number 26, July 3, 2009 EIR Feature Lyndon LaRouche’s June 27 Webcast: ‘Britain Delenda Est’ Lyndon LaRouche gave a webcast address in Northern Virginia, on June 27, 2009, his seventh, so far, this year. The webcast was hosted by La- Rouche’s national spokeswoman Debra Freeman. The entire webcast is archived at www.larouchepac.com. Today, we should probably say that the best news, is the bad news: That is, those who admit the bad news they are receiving as good news—the fact that they recognize it’s bad. Because you have a lot of people out there who have wishful thinking, who are not dealing with reality. Reality is this: The world has been, since, actually, July of 2007, almost two years, in the process of a general breakdown crisis, of the economy of the entire world. There has been nothing which has halted that process—it is just a process which has started, and it’s continuing. Under the present Administration, the situation is more desperate than it was before the inau- guration of President Obama. Because, frankly, President Obama is clini- cally, from the standpoint of his function as President, insane. He is, as I said on the 11th of April this year, that kind of problem. He is essentially an Emperor Nero in temperament; that’s the historic figure which he’s most closely related to, and nothing good will come out of him, and nothing good will come out of a Congress which submits to him. This man is, in effect, clinically insane, and he’s the President of the United States. And because the United States is essential in a leading role to get the world out of the world’s mess, the fact that the United States is in this kind of trouble, means that the entire planet is ready to go. China and Russia, for example, are crumbling. They’re crumbling not merely eco- Feature EIR July 3, 2009 © 2009 EIR News Service Inc. All Rights Reserved.

    DELENDA EST... Poul Anderson http://www.librodot.com Librodot Delenda est… Poul Anderson 1 La caza es buena en Europa hace veinte mil años, y los deportes de invierno, insuperables en ninguna otra edad. Por eso la Patrulla cuidadora del mejor adiestramiento de su personal mantiene una residencia en el Pirineo Pleistoceno. Manse Everard, ante una ventana acristalada, contempla las perspectivas de hielo azul de las vertientes boreales en las que las montañas se convertían en bosques, pantanos y tundra. Su voluminoso cuerpo estaba envuelto en unos pantalones de color verde y túnica de insulsinta, del siglo XXIII; botas hechas a mano por un franco- canadiense del siglo XIX; fumaba una apestosa y vieja pipa de época indeterminada. Sentía una vaga inquietud e ignoraba el ruido del interior, donde media docena de agentes bebían, charlaban y tocaban el piano. Un guía del período de Cro-Magnon se acercaba, cruzando el patio cubierto de nieve; era alto, hermoso, y vestía un poco a lo esquimal (¿por qué la novela nunca concedió al hombre paleolítico el suficiente sentido para vestir chaquetón, pantalón y calzado en el período glacial?), la cara pintada, al cinto uno de los cuchillos de acero que le habían prestado. La Patrulla podía actuar con entera libertad en aquel remotísimo tiempo; no había peligro en alterar el pasado, pues el metal se enmohecía y los extraños serian olvidados en pocos siglos. El mayor inconveniente era que los agentes femeninos, de períodos posteriores y más libertinos, siempre tenían jaleos con los cazadores primitivos.

From Humanism to Nazism: Antiquity in the Work of Houston Stewart Chamberlain 1 From Humanism to Nazism: Antiquity in the Work of Houston Stewart Chamberlain Johann Chapoutot 1 Houston Stewart Chamberlain was a typical member of the 19th century British gentry but had the most atypical destiny―a destiny which was built around the culture of two countries: England which he left early and Germany which was to become his true home. The son of a naval officer―his father was an admiral in the Royal Navy –, he spent his whole youth travelling around Europe. After attending a lycée in Versailles and a boarding school in Cheltenham, he visited destination spas and various health resorts―he did not have a very sound constitution―with his chaperon and a tutor.

  • Delenda Est Britannia (Being a Prologue and Epilogue to “The Vampire of the Continent”)
    Delenda Est Britannia (Being a prologue and epilogue to “The Vampire of the Continent”) Originally published in the January 3, 1917 edition of The Fatherland. (In previous issues of THE FATHERLAND we have commented upon Count Ernst zu Reventlow’s masterpiece, “The Vampire of the Conti- nent.” Our comments represented the opinion of Americans on this remarkable work. We herewith publish Aleister Crowley’s analysis of the book. Mr. Crowley is an Irishman, a member of Cambridge Univer- sity and a poet of fine distinction. Frederic Harrison, Editor of the “English Review,” stated some time ago that Mr. Crowley was the first metrical artist in the English language since Swinburne.) Count Ernst zu Reventlow’s extraordinarily lucid and cogent work on historic English policy has one fault from the point of view of the philosopher — he does not be- gin his history early enough, or derive the piracy of Eng- land from necessity. Will the distinguished publicist par- don us if we attempt to fill the gap? It is notorious that mountaineers are necessarily brigands. In their rocky fastnesses wheat will not grow, sheep will not grow fat. They are condemned to rough cereals like oats, to small and stringy sheep and goats. The dwellers of the plain care nothing for the products of the mountain, and will not surrender their goods ex- cept by force. The highlander consequently becomes a cateran or brigand. The mountain districts of every country in the world — Scotland, Spain, India, China, or America — prove the correctness of the theory. A similar proposition may be made with regard to is- landers, as opposed to continental powers.

  • E. the Second Punic War (218-201 BC) 1. Soon After the First Punic War
    www.HistoryAtOurHouse.Com Lower Elementary Class Notes E. The Second Punic War (218-201 BC) 1. Soon after the first Punic war, Rome conquered Sardinia, Corsica, Spain and northern Italy, turning them into provinces. Meanwhile, the Carthaginians took over Iberia (Spain & Portugal), eventually putting a general named Hannibal in charge of it. 2. Hannibal then led an army of 40,000 (plus battle elephants) over the Alps. 3. By the time he reached Italy, he only had 20,000, but it was enough. After Hannibal defeated three Roman armies, the Gauls decided to join him against Rome. His force was still not large enough to attack Rome directly, so he chose to attack other parts of Italy instead. 4. The Romans decided to replace the two consuls with a single “dictator” for six months. However, the dictator they chose, Fabius Maximums, believed that they could not defeat Hannibal, so he did no attack him. The people grew impatient. They nicknamed Fabius “cunctator” -- the delayer. 5. Hannibal's campaign in Italy lasted 16 years! 6. Finally, the Romans leaders sent a general named Scipio to attack Carthage. The Carthaginians panicked and recalled Hannibal from Italy. 7. The two greatest generals from the two sides squared off in the Battle of Zama near Carthage in 202. It was Hannibal’s first and only defeat. After this battle, Scipio became known as Scipio “Africanus.” F. The Third Punic War: Final Conquest of Carthage (and Greece!) 1. After having suffered sixteen years of occupation by Hannibal’s army, the Romans imposed a harsh peace on Carthage.

    March/April 2018 Adar/Nisan/Iyyar 5778 From Rabbi Eugene A. Wernick -- Dear Friends, March begins for us with the celebration of the holiday of Purim. On the sabbath before Purim we read the special portion known as Zakor. Zakor taken from Deuteronomy 25:17-19 reads: 17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as you came out of Egypt; 18 how he met you by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were enfeebled in thy rear, when you were faint and weary; and he feared not God. 19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies roundabout, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget. To remember the cruel deeds of Amalek, the purported ancestor of Haman, Jews incorporated the command to remember “Amalek into the “six remembrances, “ that some orthodox Jews say every morning after the prayers of Shaharit. To remember enemies’ evil designs is not limited to Jews. Cato the “Elder” would end his speeches with the phrase: “Carthago delenda est” [literally, “Carthage is destroyed,” but in context, “Carthage is as good as destroyed.”]. After the horror of the Parkland massacre, in which so many beautiful students and teachers were murdered, their blood cries out to be remembered that they did not die in vain. To that purpose, I will in every way I can bring attention to the need to protect our students in their schools.
