The Moral Collapse of the West Cries Out for a New Paradigm

Download a PDF of the statement

The Schiller Institute is circulating an urgent response from its founder Helga Zepp-LaRouche to Apostolic Nuncio to Syria Cardinal Mario Zenari, who has alerted the world to the acute humanitarian emergency that has been deliberately imposed upon Syria, in the aftermath of nine years of war, through murderous “sanctions” measures imposed by the U.S. State Department and irresponsibly supported by a number of other governments, most emphatically the British. 

The White House announced a series of sanctions against Russia today, the gravest of which—because of what it portends—is an attack on Russia’s ability to issue ruble-denominated debt, with the stated purpose of triggering massive capital flight and wreaking havoc on the Russian economy.

Why are we hearing so little in the western media about the real danger of war between the U.S. and Russia, coming from the provocations of Washington, Brussels and Kiev?  What can citizens due to counter the effect of the War Hawks making policy in the White House and the U.S. Congress?  And how can we maintain pride in our nation, when the War Hawks are pushing the world toward new wars?

Helga Zepp-LaRouche stated this week: “I think it is dawning on more and more relevant people that we are looking at a potential complete and utter failure of civilization...The old paradigm is crashing, but if we do our job right, a new paradigm can be won." Join us tonight to discuss the plan to replace the wretched policies of Prince Philip and the old paradigm (eg. Biden’s Green Infrastructure bill and the International Monetary Fund’s proposed “Debt for Death” swap) with a new paradigm, which defines economic development as the basis for peace. 

In her April 14 weekly dialogue, Helga Zepp LaRouche warned of a "moral collapse of the western system", which is pushing the world toward war and genocide, and called upon people to join her in a "complete activation" to address this collapse. In the last days, other voices are being heard, echoing her urgent warning of the danger of war between the U.S. and NATO against Russia, which could result from provocations by Ukraine; between the U.S. and China, over Taiwan and the South China Sea; and of the genocide occurring in Yemen and Syria, as a result of TransAtlantic policies. There is a solution, she said, which depends on our viewers joining our mobilization, to prevent "a plunge into a Dark Age."

Escalating tensions with Russia, driven by Ukraine’s suicidal push for NATO membership, U.S. encouragement, and the U.S. military itself, threatens—despite President Biden’s reaching out to President Putin for an in-person summit—to explode into war, nuclear war. A provocative visit of former U.S. government officials to Taiwan adds more fuel to the fire of China’s cross-strait relations. Economic lending into the real economy by U.S. banks withers, even as they are showered with money. Inflation accelerates, and a blowout of the trans-Atlantic financial system is inevitable. Death by starvation stalks the impoverished inhabitants of war-zones Syria and Yemen.

Will these crises culminate in what would become nuclear conflict, a devastation of the human race, or will a new paradigm overthrow the oligarchical structures that drive conflict? What flanks can you create to achieve that happier outcome?

In her weekly dialogue, Helga Zepp LaRouche made an impassioned appeal to viewers to join with her in addressing the dangerous moral collapse which characterizes virtually every western government, including the United States. This collapse poses a threat to everyone, as the crisis in Ukraine continues to build toward a war between Russia and the forces of the U.S. and NATO. The possibility of a Biden-Putin summit is a positive development, but at the same time it was announced, his foreign policy team was voicing full support for the fanatical extremist wing of domestic forces in Ukraine, which is pushing to cross the "red line" announced years ago by Moscow, that of placing NATO troops on the Russian border of Ukraine.

She also emphasized the urgency of lifting the so-called Caesar Sanctions against the people of Syria, citing the appeal of Cardinal Zenari to end the sanctions. There is nothing "humanitarian", she stated, in starving children and shutting down hospitals and medical care, based on another fraudulent narrative cooked up by U.K.-U.S. regime change networks. We must insist that every policy maker who does not speak up against this fraud is complicit in every death which occurs in Syria, and in Yemen.

On March 16, the Permanent Representative of India at the United Nations, Ambassador T.S. Tirumarti spoke out against the humanitarian disaster related to the U.S. imposition of sanctions against Syria, the so-called Caesar Sanctions. Tirumarti said the sanctions should be “relaxed,” calling on the international community to act “with a sense of urgency” to help the Syrian people. He said there is an “urgent need to increase humanitarian assistance to all Syrians throughout the country without discrimination, politicization, and any preconditions.”

With the Ukraine crisis careening rapidly towards a strategic showdown, President Joe Biden called President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday to propose that the two leaders hold “a summit meeting in a third country in the coming months to discuss the full range of issues facing the United States and Russia,” according to a White House read-out. The intent would be for “the United States and Russia to pursue a strategic stability dialogue on a range of arms control and emerging security issues.”
