Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of the Schiller Institute, and convener of the International Peace Coalition, has said that \u201cthe next six months may be the most dangerous in all human history.\u201d In fact, we don\u2019t immediately come to our senses, history\u2014if there is any\u2014may well record that Thermonuclear World War Three started, and the Doomsday Clock stopped, on August 6, 2024, the day that \u201cUkraine launched a surprise attack on Russia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it was NATO\u2014not Ukraine\u2014that invaded Russia, under the guise of the \u201cUkrainian Kursk offensive.\u201d NATO personnel from Great Britain, France, Poland, the United States, etc., are in this \u201cup to their eyeballs.\u201d More media, like the <em>New York Times<\/em>, have recently reported that this \u201csurprise\u201d attack was devised at least a year ago, with the full knowledge of British and American intelligence. This means that the United States and the nations of NATO are no longer at the doorstep of war with Russia, but have opened the door\u2014and in that war, thermonuclear weapons can, in fact, be used. This means that we, you, must act in the next few days to prevent that from happening, <em>even if you don\u2019t think you know how<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russian Akhmat Special Forces Commander Major General Apti Alaudinov stated from the battlefield that the invasion of Kursk \u201cwas prepared directly under the American leadership. These forces invaded the territory of the Kursk region\u2026. The initial task was to take control of the nuclear power plant, as well as the Kursk and possibly Belgorod regions. We have quite credible information about these intentions. After this, they intended to put Russia to the negotiation table with ultimatum conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commander Alaudinov then issued a direct appeal to the people of America and Europe: \u201cYou probably do not see or hear that your leadership is doing all it can to launch a nuclear war \u2026 as you\u2019ve been trying with all means to make Russia cross the red line and start protecting itself using all these nuclear weapons. I don\u2019t think this is something you really want. If you don\u2019t want this to happen, speak out! Go to the streets and stop your government!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, ominously, he concluded: \u201cIn any case, if you want Russia to lose the war, you have to understand: <em>the Russian nuclear state will not lose the war. After all, why do we need the world if there is no Russia?<\/em> That\u2019s why I\u2019m saying: you either wake up and go to the streets to stop your government, or you all (will) appear \u2026 in the Third World War zone. This is the issue of the nearest future!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are sane voices from the United States and elsewhere that have spoken out about the ugly truth about this war. Former Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich (also an Independent candidate for Congress in 2024), responding to Joe Biden\u2019s crazed remarks at the Democratic Convention, has said that \u201cNATO is an anachronism that should have been disbanded years ago. It has outlived its usefulness. NATO has no purpose, other than as an arms bazaar. And NATO\u2019s purpose right now, is to keep growing to rattle the sabers with Russia.\u201d Diane Sare, LaRouche Independent New York candidate for United States Senate, has campaigned for years to shut down NATO. Both Presidential candidates Kennedy and Trump have called for an immediate end to the Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This, however, is not enough\u2014far from it. The people have to be heard and seen. Demonstrations and rallies, yes\u2014but also interventions at public meetings, banners on highways and other public displays, petitions and letters are needed. Hundreds of public officials, clergy, doctors, etc. must make statements and call for no more funding of the war; denunciation of NATO\u2019s war with Russia; admission of the truth of the Nord Stream bombing; and negotiations for a new security and development architecture worldwide. Out of these actions can come a Council of Reason that can move the world away from the precipice of self-destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is still time to act, but this is no time to run, to flinch, or to \u201cchoke.\u201d All of human civilization that has been, and will be, may hinge on what we\u2014what you\u2014choose to do in these next hours, days and weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aug. 25, 2024 (EIRNS)\u2014This emergency statement is issued by the International Peace Coalition.
