"Ok, I've held my fire on the LaRouche topic because in my
35 years of journalism, the LaRouchoids were the only ones
who actually threatened my life and, as a result, I had to
move my family out of Northern Virginia for many years.
LaRouche doesn't like me because for a time I was the
leading expert on their little Trotskyite communist cult.
When he moved his little band of thugs from New York in the
early 1980, he just happened to move into my territory,
Loudoun County, Virginia, where my newspaper had a firm
foothold. LaRouche immediately went about setting up his
empire and threatening anyone in the County who disagreed
with him.
I wrote a series of articles about the group and they -- in
full accord with their reputation of going after any
journalist who opposed them -- came after me.
The reason LaRouche changes his position so often is that
the truth is not his goal -- unlike those who participate on
this forum. His goal is whatever Vladimir Putin -- or his
masters -- tell him his goals will be. One day, he's a
revolutionary socialist; the next, he's the head of the
Communist Party USA; the next day, he's "the world's #1
enemy of the Soviet Union"; now he's back to being a
"Democrat" attacking the Queen of England -- it goes on and
on.
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING that comes from that cult -- and
it does fully fulfill the definition of a cult -- can be
believed. They are so intellectually dishonest that I
wouldn't waste my time even reading or considering their
opinion. Why? Because they are not in pursuit of the truth.
They are completely manipulative. Their mission is to
deceive and confuse.
Now don't get me wrong; some of their research is brilliant!
But you cannot rely on it, or the conclusions they draw from
it. This is one of the most skilled groups in the world at
disinformation -- the best the world "revolution movement"
can buy. And that term, "world revolution" has a very
specific meaning. Read Nesta Webster. This is all about
consolidation of power -- away from the sovereign nation
state -- and towards world dictatorship.
LaRouche is not worth my time -- unless -- he starts to
intrude into my area. Now, his name has appeared on this
thread too many times, so it must be shot down. I,
admittedly, am pretty strict about the discussions that go
on here. Why? Because in the wild west of the Internet,
anyone can say anything and so although it is a great way to
exchange information, now the question becomes one of
sorting out the truth.
This Reforum will be maintained as a bastion of truth. It is
one place where you can go and get one certain, reliable,
peer-reviewed, undistorted point of view. Our mission is to
create a platform of truth and then discuss current events
as they unfold held up against that standard.
The LaRouche mission is to confuse the truth to support
their hidden, revolutionary agenda. This, from my first book
with subsequent updates:
-------------
Lyndon LaRouche
Both Lyndon LaRouche and Richard Nixon deceived America in
the same way. Both claimed to be staunch enemies of the
Soviet Union, and neither really was.
LaRouche deceived hundreds of thousands of American
conservatives with his well-publicized Presidential
campaigns claiming to be the "number-one enemy of the Soviet
Union." In 1989, LaRouche began serving fifteen years in
federal prison for convictions on thirteen counts of tax
fraud, mail fraud, and conspiracy.
Although few people would know it today, LaRouche had a long
and well-documented history as a leader in the Communist
Party USA. In fact, in 1948, at age 26, he took on the alias
of Lyn Marcus from the names of Lenin and Marx. By 1974, the
FBI was well acquainted with LaRouche/Marcus and his group,
and referred to them in their annual report as "a
violence-oriented organization of revolutionary socialists."
In the early 1970s, LaRouche/Marcus battled traditional
American Communist leader Gus Hall for leadership of the
Communist Party USA. By 1973 he declared victory. After a
1974 visit with his Soviet handler, Gennady Serebreyakov, at
the Soviet United Nations mission in New York, LaRouche/Marcus
took off on the tangent for which he would become so well
known. He changed his name back to Lyndon LaRouche, and set
off on his new course. According to respected journalists
Robert Moss & Arnaud de Borchgrave (former editor-in-chief
of the Washington Times), writing in their newsletter Early
Warning in May, 1984;
"His [apparatus] set out both to attack and penetrate
conservative organizations and the major political parties
while at the same time developing alliances with neo-Nazis
... and leaders of racist hate groups."
From that point, Gus Hall stopped running for President, and
Lyndon LaRouche started. In a "security memorandum" from
early 1975, LaRouche tried to justify the shift to his
bewildered cadre.
"Cadres should be firmly fixed on the politics underlying
this move.... ONCE WE HAVE WON THIS BATTLE, ELIMINATING OUR
RIGHT-WING OPPOSITION WILL BE COMPARATIVELY EASY."
In the 2004 Presidential election, LaRouche ran as a
Democrat and demanded that John Kerry support a
Congressional investigation of the Abu Ghraib prison
scandal.
Friedrich Schiller
Behind the switch away from hard-line communist rhetoric was
that in the 1970s, Communism was finding it increasingly
difficult to gain much support in America using Marxist
rhetoric. LaRouche's mission was the difficult task of
finding something that would sell.
LaRouche began to attempt to popularize the pre-Marxian line
of revolutionary thought of eighteenth century German
playwright Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller
(1759-1805). Schiller was the leading playwright in German
history. His early plays protested the tyranny of
aristocracy, the hallmark of all revolutionary thought.
Schiller, in "The Robbers," (1781) claimed that decent men
are justifiably driven to crime by monarchical systems (the
old Masonic line). So in reality, LaRouche was only trying
to get back to the roots of revolution. He claimed that
Schiller was the real hero of the American Revolution, and
that the founding fathers all held Shiller in the highest
esteem. LaRouche therefore still busies himself trying to
establish Shiller's birthday as an American national
holiday.
This is what is behind his persistent rhetoric about the
Queen of England being behind all the sins of the world. It
is the traditional attack line behind every communist
revolution thoughout history; monarchy is bad; so the
substitute is a communist revolution to throw the bad
monarchs out – disguised as a popular movement where power
will be spread out amoung the “people,” when, in fact, an
even more dictatorial government is installed – a
communist-style dictatorship. Then, our only job is ongoing
public relations – domination of the press and electronic
media -- to disguise the fact that power has become even
more consolidated than before.

LaRouche, or his many publications, as far as I know, have
never disputed any of these essential facts, although I
first published them 25 years ago in my newspaper -- and
paid a price for it.
Although there are some fingers of blame to point at Britain
since 1694, monetary manipulation has been going on for
thousands of years.
"Recurrently over the centuries men have supposed that they
have mastered the secret of [money’s] infinite
amplification…Invariably it involves the rediscovery,
perhaps in slightly novel form, of some infinitely ancient
fraud.” John Kenneth Galbraith, 1975
Furthermore, if you want to attack the heart of the problem
-- consolidation of power to the international level --
planning for this predates England itself. The heart of this
problem is not an individual, it is a concept -- freedom for
the rest of us -- the hope of an escape from serfdom.
Remember, it was in England that the dreams of a free people
-- the dreams going back at least to the Greek philosopher
Solon in 600 B.C. -- were resurrected, and advanced mightily
with Magna Carta and an elected Parliament. In the Hall of
Human Freedom, the good deeds of the English people will
probably outweigh the bad deeds of some of their monarchs.
No seeker of the truth would fail to recount this." - Bill
Still
