LaRouche's Saturday Morning Bombshell

April 24, 2010 (LPAC)—This morning, Lyndon LaRouche is going to deliver a presentation, in which he will report on a recent event at Stanford University, at which the top economic advisor to Russian President Medvedev, Arkady Dvorkovich, made a presentation that revealed the total bankruptcy of the economic policy of Russia, a policy so incompetent that, if allowed to continue, will totally destroy the Russian economy.

While we have indication that Prime Minister Putin is unhappy with this garbage, even he is not in a position to unseat the apparatus that has been running Russian monetary and economic policy since the time of Yuri Andropov and Mikhail Gorbachov. The whole of Russian economic policy comes out of the British oligarchy, typified by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), which first was created as part of a British takeover of Russia in the 1967-1971 period, when Andropov was put in charge of the KGB and rammed this through. Typical of this sheer incompetent folly is the central role played by Goldman Sachs, in launching the BRIC operation, as reported in the briefing in recent days.

Now, both Goldman Sachs and our British stooge President, Barack Obama, are in big trouble. The combination of these two developments defines an opening to turn the strategic situation around, decisively. As Lyn emphasized in his appearance with John Hoefle and Harley Schlanger on the LPAC Weekly Report, the United States cannot survive if Barack Obama remains in office. And if the U.S. goes down, the entire planet is guaranteed to plunge into a prolonged New Dark Age. That is the truth, and it cannot be dodged.

The fact that we have smoked out this British operation to literally destroy Russia, and that LaRouche is going to put the story out, in his own words today, is going to really shake things up.

Obama is in trouble. On Thursday, attorneys for former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojovich filed a motion in Federal Court, demanding that President Obama appear as a witness at his criminal trial, now scheduled to start in June. They also demanded document production. A redacted version of the court submission was released to the public, but "inadvertently," the redacted portions were revealed. They made a devastating case that President Obama lied through his teeth about his role in the selection of the replacement in the Senate, after he won the 2008 election. It also appears that public statements that he made have been contradicted by sworn testimony by Tony Rezko, the Chicago swindler who was Obama's neighbor and helped him buy his Hyde Park home. It is going to be very hard for the government to go ahead with the Blegojovich trial, without ordering the President to testify.

Lyndon LaRouche commented on this development: The release of the unredacted subpoena document from the Blagojovich case cannot be suppressed. It is out there. This will put the legitimacy of the Obama Presidency further in doubt, in the minds of the American people. Blagojovich is facing a jail sentence, and his demands for Obama's appearance are totally legitimate. Obama now has a very big problem. Right now, the American people hate the Congress more than they hate the President. But this scandal could soon change that situation. Obama could very quickly become the number one hate-object for the vast majority of Americans.

The Chicago trial further spotlights potential impeachable offenses that are now piling up. In February, Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.), a retired U.S. Navy Admiral, charged that he had been offered a post in the Obama Administration if he would drop his challenge to Sen. Arlen Specter in the upcoming U.S. Senate Democratic primary. In two months, no one from the Obama White House has challenged the Sestak claim, and if the charges prove accurate, they are clearly criminal.

And things are not looking much better for Obama's boosters at Goldman Sachs. Beyond the SEC civil suit against Goldman, there are upcoming hearings by Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) at the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations next Tuesday, where Lloyd Blankfein and other top Goldman execs are going to be grilled. At the close of a hearing on Friday, on the role of rating agencies in the Wall Street crash of 2007-2008, Levin announced that he would be posting four exhibits on the subcommittee website by the end of the day, that will be used at Tuesday's hearings. The expose of Goldman Sachs criminality is taking off in Europe, as well as in the United States. In Germany, Goldman Sachs was in the center of a looting operation, involving their purchase of formerly state-owned housing units. The issue is a centerpiece of the North Rhine Westphalia elections, and will be a major point of BuSo intervention in the coming days.

And Goldman's role in the Greek debt crisis is coming under scrutiny, with calls for a criminal investigation. A German investment firm, on Friday, called for a criminal probe of the Goldman Sachs role in the Greek blowout, and called for all of Goldman's sales of Greek debt to be nullified, and for Goldman to repay the profits they made on the deals. Lyndon LaRouche applauded the idea, noting that it could make a debt reorganization of Greece more manageable.

Overall, however, LaRouche made the point that there is absolutely no alternative to a Global Glass Steagall agreement, starting with the Four Powers. The Greek situation is otherwise hopeless, as is the entire European debt situation. We are on the verge of a wave of sovereign defaults, that can only be addressed by LaRouche's solution.

Were LaRouche to be given the authority of the President of the United States for just 48-72 hours, the entire crisis could be resolved. LaRouche would confer with the relevant officials in Russia, China and India, and the very next morning, at dawn, would announce the agreement, in principle, for a Global Glass Steagall bankruptcy reorganization, inviting other countries to join in the effort. Such a move would catch the British totally offguard, which is pivotal. If the British got wind of a serious challenge, they would move, immediately, to blow up the whole planet, to trigger an immediate Dark Age collapse into barbarism. For the moment, the best instrument the British have for such a war to end all civilization is Israel's Bibi Netanyahu. An Israeli attack—any military action—against Iran would be clinically insane. But Bibi is on such a tight British leash that he is capable of just such madness. Netanyahu must be brought down immediately, so some more sane elements, who would at least think twice before taking action that would wipe out civilization, can be installed in his place. Right now, the Netanyahu government in Israel represents the single greatest threat to start World War III. He is more dangerous than Iran. We must get Netanyahu out of office now.
