Putin said, \u201cIf Russia does not use nuclear weapons first, it won\u2019t use them second, either,\u201d and that perhaps Russia should abandon its policy of \u201cno first use\u201d of nuclear weapons and adopt the U.S. policy of \u201cfirst strike\u201d thermonuclear war. (The US policy, it should be noted, also allows for fighting war even against powers without nuclear weapons, and even if the United States is not attacked with nuclear weapons.)<br><br>Sleepwalkers in America and Europe should wake up. Did you know that \u201cfirst use against everybody\u201d is the U.S. policy? Do you support that? Do you know that the world has suddenly become a much more dangerous place than ten days ago.<br><br>Why? The trust between Russia and the United States\/NATO has evaporated to the point that, in the words of Helga Zepp-LaRouche, winner of the 2022 Freedom of Expression Award of the national Journalists Club of Mexico, \u201cone more step, even an unintended mistake, one misreading by one side or the other, could trigger the launching of the entire nuclear arsenals of both sides, leading to a global nuclear war, followed by a nuclear winter of about ten years, which would mean that in all likelihood not one human being would survive.\u201d Is all of human history to be held hostage by this folly?<br><br>Join those who say no to war, those who say there is another path, that there are principles of reason and goodness that are more powerful than the hubris of failed empires. The road to peace must be paved \u201cwith malice toward none; with charity for all.\u201d What principles must inform the negotiation process among the furiously raging nations? The Saturday symposium, open to all, is intended to discuss \u201cwhere we go from here.\u201d<br><br><em>Watch the livestream on&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/\">schillerinstitute.com<\/a><\/em><br><br><em>Speakers to include:&nbsp;<\/em><strong><em>Helga Zepp-LaRouche<\/em><\/strong><em>, founder, Schiller Institute;&nbsp;<\/em><strong><em>Col.
