LaRouche Pac
Aug. 7 (EIRNS)-What follows is the text of Sputnik's article about the Sputnik radio interview with Helga Zepp-LaRouche under the headline above.
Lyndon LaRouche's wife Helga Zepp LaRouche spoke to Sputnik about how U.S. atomic bombing in Nagasaki and Hiroshima was completely unnecessary and how the U.S. is preparing for another atomic war against Russia and China right now. For 70 years, the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the U.S. has been marked by reverence for the many victims who tragically lost their lives during the nuclear attack, but now an influential American international affairs outlet, Foreign Policy, has decided to spin the event, blaming the Soviet Union for what happened.

Previous articles explained no credible evidence suggests Russia or Donbass freedom fighters had anything to do with downing MH17.
What benefit could they possibly have gotten from downing a commercial aircraft unrelated to conflict on the ground - especially knowing the uproar it would cause?
Washington and Kiev gained plenty from blaming their crime on convenient adversaries - 298 lost passenger and crew member lives bought lots of useful propaganda. On Tuesday, media scoundrels featured the following headlines: New York Times: “Malaysian Airlines Crash Investigators to Examine Possible Missile Parts in Eastern Ukraine” - alleging surface-to-air Russian ones, highlighting Ukraine, Washington and other Western countries saying the aircraft “was destroyed by a surface-to-air missile fired from territory in eastern Ukraine controlled by pro-Russian separatists.”

Judas SYRIZA officials already agreed to perhaps the most severe neoliberal harshness measures ever imposed on a country other than conquered ones raped and pillaged by war.
Not enough says German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schauble. He demands more. The Financial Times said his ministry sent Eurozone counterparts a paper outlining his objections.
They’re scheduled to meet on Friday to decide whether to accept or reject already agreed on bailout terms. Germany’s finance ministry “denied that it was rejecting the deal and said it was only raising ‘some open questions that need to be addressed in the euro group,’ “ said the FT. They include “delays in planned reforms, debt sustainability and the role of the International Monetary Fund…” Schauble is especially concerned about an agreed on 50 billion euro privatization scheme to be administered by German bank KfW he runs - as well as Greece’s ability to service its impossible to repay 320 billion euro foreign debt.

Kerry represents US imperial arrogance, rogue state ruthlessness rejecting democracy worldwide - especially at home.
US elections when held are farcical. Ordinary people have no say whatever. Big money-controlled duopoly power rules.
All so-called elections turn out the same way. Business as usual always triumphs. Things go from bad to worse. Neocons infesting Washington threaten world peace.
Alleged US normalization with Cuba is a thinly veiled scheme to recolonize the island state, steal its resources, exploit its people and open its markets without restrictions to US corporate predators.
Kerry berated Cuban “policies of the past that have not led to a democratic transition” - code language for capitulating to US hegemonic rule unconditionally. He laughably claimed “the United State will remain a champion of democratic principles and reforms” - democracy solely for the privileged few, “reforms” meaning replacing social justice with neoliberal harshness.

In second half of year 2009, Indian State launched ‘Operation Green Hunt (OGH)’ to fight its own most underprivileged people because they are resisting illegal undemocratic corporate mining. Manmohan Singh, then prime minister and man of World Bank to carry forward neoliberal agenda to open Indian markets for multinational corporate companies, described their resistance as “the biggest internal security challenge” because they are asking for their fundamental right of existence. This voice of resistance is not good for the climate for investment, P. Chidambaram told to Parliament explaining necessity of mining of tremendous natural resources of minerals as before being finance minister he represented several mining companies in his carrier as corporate lawyer.

Washington and Turkey are allied against sovereign Syria and regional Kurds on the pretext of fighting ISIS.
They’re imported terrorists from scores of countries serving US imperial interests - using chemical weapons against Syrian civilians. Germany’s Defense Ministry says they’re used against Kurdish forces in northern Iraq - maybe supplied by Turkey or Washington.
A spokesman said “a chemical weapons attack” occurred southwest of Abril - delivered with mortar or artillery shells. ISIS and other imported terrorists used chlorine gas, sarin and other toxic agents in Syria and Iraq numerous times earlier. In late June, Syria’s Rajm al-Tfihi village in northeastern Al-Hasakah governorate was targeted. An undetermined poison gas was used. Victims experienced vomiting, breathing difficulties, eyes, nose and throat burning, severe headaches, muscle pain, as well as impaired concentration and mobility.

US and British special forces are actively preparing Kiev’s military for escalated combat. UK Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said Britain will double the number of Ukrainian troops it’s training by yearend. He called conflict in Donbass “red hot” - heading toward getting hotter.
Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) Contact Group envoy Vladislav Deinego said Kiev violated every Minsk ceasefire term since agreeing to observe them in February. Conflict never stopped. Dozens of shellings occur daily - including against residential and public areas. Obama wants war, not peace - using Kiev proxies to do his dirty work.
Deinego denounced junta authorities “reluctance to bring closer the peaceful settlement of the” conflict. It authorized $250 million in extra spending for greater military buildup in Donbass despite its economy teetering toward collapse - funds desperately needed for constructive purposes earmarked for escalated war.

Last August after protests followed Michael Brown’s murder, 19 journalists were arrested, according to the Freedom of the Press Foundation. Others were harassed, threatened, tear gassed, pepper sprayed and abused by other brutal police tactics.
Authorities wanted journalists confined to a restricted area away from protests - to prevent their reporting on police brutality. Homeland Security operatives were involved. In a news conference, Obama lied saying:
“Let me be clear that our constitutional rights to speak freely, to assemble, and to report in the press must be vigilantly safeguarded, especially in moments like these.”He prosecuted more whistleblowers of government wrongdoing than all his predecessors combined. He targets journalists for doing their job.

Washington rejects democratic governance everywhere - especially at home. Rule by powerful monied interests is longstanding US policy.
Sovereign independent countries are targeted for regime change by color revolutions or war - including China, Russia, Iran, Venezuela and Ecuador among others.
Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa urged supporters to defend the nation’s democracy and political progress achieved under its Citizens’ Revolution - an initiative implemented during his tenure. On Monday, he said “(t)hey want to provoke the political divisions of the past, but they do not have the political legitimacy or strength to do so.”
