    From the EditorWith the world sitting precariously upon an abyss of nuclear confrontation,driven by the disintegration of the financial system, we have one last oppor-tunity to return to our senses. This means bringing an awareness of the truenature of the crisis to the forefront of understanding within the general popu-lation at large, and policy makers most specifically. This issue of the Cana-dian Patriot is designed around two segments. The first segment presents theconsequence of failing to comprehend the inherently self destructive natureof closed system thinking which is driving western governments into a suici-dal collision course with those nations which are rejecting such thinking.

    This means that it is necessary to understand the role of the British Empire inorganizing Canadas recent foreign and internal policy measures and strikingupon the remedy in each report.

    Our revue begins with a top down overview by EIR editors Nancy Spannausand Rachel Douglas on the war buildup underway in Russia and the USA

    which define the context of the many spark plugs spread all over the worldwhich could spill over into global confrontation and chaos. The following 3reports feature Canadas largely misunderstood role as an instrument in theBritish Empires global arsenal which is now being used actively to conductdirty economic warfare as well as promote actual warfare against those na-tions such as Russia and China (among others) which are now boldly resist-ing the imperial demands for world government and depopulation.

    The second half of the Patriot is defined by a focus upon the principle ofcreative reason as it manifests itself in mankinds ever changing relationshipto nature, and how the realization of this fact must forever throw off theshackles of closed system thinking. The re-defined role of human eco-nomic planning must be based on this creative principle and measured ac-cording to the standard elaborated by Lyndon LaRouche since the 1960s

    known as increasing energy flux density. This transition is made with thereport entitled Mackinders Geopolitics vs LaRouches Landbridge.

    We then proceed to an investigation of the incompatibility of the principle ofthe general welfare and environmentalism which then introduces the articleIs Quebec Committing Scientific Suicide? This report by CRC memberPascal Chevrier elaborates upon Quebecs foolish decision to shut down itsremaining nuclear reactor Gentilly-2. Juxtaposed with this is a case study ofChinas frontier program to develop advanced fourth generation Thoriumreactors by 2020 written by Karel Vereyken editor of Frances NouvelleSolidarite newspaper. To this is added a report on Russian and Argentiniancollaboration for large scale development of energy resources, science andinfrastructure.

    We end the Patriot with a transcript of the first of Lyndon LaRouchesFriday Project webcasts that serves to recapitulate the real reasons truepatriots must now take reality seriously and fight for those policies whichwill ensure humanitys successful survival.

    By Rachel Douglas and Nancy Spannaus

    EIR- Those who choose to ignore the grim war-nings of Lyndon LaRouche, Chairman of the U.S.Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey, and theRussian leadership, about the imminent danger ofa thermonuclear confrontation between Russiaand the United States coming from the currentU.S.-NATO regime-change efforts in the MiddleEast, need only look at the actual military de-

    ployments over the past month to see that danger.The escalation of outright military moves on boththe U.S. and Russian sides, since the fateful mur-der of Libyan head of state Muammar Qaddafi, alittle more than a year ago, has put the world on apathway to destruction which must be derailedimmediately, if mankind is to survive.

    The Sept. 23 Sunday evening prime-time reviewof the week's news on Channel One, Russia's big-gest TV network, provides a useful glimpse ofthis reality, from the Russian angle, and reveals

    its global implications. The show featured a seven-minute segment on the looming threat of war,focused on a threatened Israeli or U.S. attack onIran, and included footage and maps of the Per-sian Gulf. Here are excerpts:

    "This week preparations were under way in thePersian Gulf for the possible use of force. Jud-ging by the concentration of military equipment,we may turn out to be just one step away fromwar. These exercises are taking place in the Straitof Hormuz, off the coast of Iran. A record numberof warships, in the region's entire history, has as-sembled therefrom over 30 countries, includingthe USA, Britain, and Saudi Arabia. Battleships,submarines, aircraft carriers, including Nimitz-class vessels with up to 70 fighter aircraft onboard. The participants in these maneuvers do notconceal the fact that this show of force is addres-sed to Iran.... Maneuvers on such a scale have

    never before been conducted here.... Muscle-flexing is in full swing, heated up by bellicoserhetoric".

    At this point, Channel One showed the video clipof Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, saying thatthe United States "must stop Iran" from gettingnuclear weapons, by drawing a "red line." "True,Washington replied that it will decide for itselfwhether to draw any red lines. But Israel is insis-ting, and hurrying them up," the commentatorsaid.

    After discussing various contingencies, such asIsrael not wanting to start a war without the Uni-ted States while Obama has electoral considera-tions, Channel One interviewed Alexei Arbatovof the IMEMO Center for International Security,a Russian establishment thinktank run by theAcademy of Sciences, who said:

    "The situation is extremely explosive. I would saythat it is the most acute that it has been in the past20 years."

    While noting that leading U.S. military officersare arguing against getting into a new war, none-theless, Russian TV said correctly, "Wars canbegin through a provocation."

    U.S.-NATO on the Move

    The Russian TV description of the Strait of Hor-

    muz maneuvers, the International Mine Counter-measures Exercise which began Sept. 16 and runthrough Sept. 27, is accurate. U.S. thinktank spo-kesmen, as well, have noted the extraordinaryfirepower being deployed in this maneuver.

    Its Not Just Words: Russian,

    U.S. Militaries in Action

    While the minesweeping maneuver deliberately isnot entering the Strait, an extremely crowded bo-dy of water where accidental encounter with theIranians could well occur, that is no guaranteeagainst such a conflict. An opinion piece by Was-hington Post senior columnist David Ignatius,"Lessons from an Iranian war game," underscored

    that point. Ignatius was permitted to observe thegame, held in Washington, and including formertop U.S. officials and prominent Iranian-American experts, and his conclusion, undoubte-dly shared by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was stark:

    "The game showed how easy it was for each sideto misread the other's signals."

    For one thing, Ignatius puts President Obama,whom he assumes has been re-elected, directly onthe side of war. But he leaves it to the reader tofill in the next step: that a U.S. strike on Iran'snuclear facility, be it conventional or nuclear, willinevitably bring in Iran's ally and northern neigh-bor, Russia.

    U.S. and allied military deployments are not sim-ply occurring around Iran, obviously. The movefor regime change in Syria also represents a flash-

    point for the Southwest Asia region,as Russia has repeatedly pointedout, and Col. Lawrence Wilkerson(ret.) elaborated in his answer to aquestion on the danger of WorldWar III, in Rep. Walter Jones' pressconference on Sept. 21 (see Featu-re). Israel itself, which cannot af-ford to take military action againstIran without American guaranteesand backup, held surprise maneu-vers on the border with Syria justlast week.

    And then there's the Asia-Pacificregion, where the recent trip by Se-cretary of Defense Leon Panettaresulted in an escalation of tensionswith China and Russia, over hisannouncement of an agreement withJapan on stationing another missiledefense station in that nation. Alle-gedly, such "defense" stations are

    aimed at "rogue states," in this case North Korea,but, as Russian and Chinese commentaries havepointed out, Japan is in no danger from NorthKorea's capability. The only conceivable reasonfor such a deployment is to further the encircle-ment of China, and, as in the case of the encircle-ment of Russia, render that nation's defenses

    against a first strike impotent. It is for that reasonthat, in an unsigned Global Times editorial March29, Beijing warned that "an overarching missiledefense system would force China to change itslong-held nuclear policy" of no first use of nu-clear weapons.

    There are also moves "on the ground" in Asiathat, while they seem to be merely local skirmis-hes, could prove to be provocations for largerconfrontations in the current superheated interna-tional climate, specifically, the conflict betweenJapan and China over the Diaoyu/SenkakuIslands.

    Now, let's look at the Russian military prepara-tions to deal with U.S./NATO moves.

    Russian media coverage described large-scale naval exercises in the Strait

    of Hormuz (shown here), aimed at Iran, as on a scale never before con-

    ducted there: Muscle-flexing is in full swing, heated up by bellicose rheto-

    ric, noted Channel One.

    Russia Practices Response to 'External Attack'

    Addressing Russian troops on Sept. 17, PresidentVladimir Putin spoke as commander-in-chief.

    "You have had excellent training and are literatepeople," he told them. "You see what is going onin the world and how, unfortunately, the use offorce in international affairs is increasing. All ofthis means that we must keep our powder dry. Wemust increase Russia's defense capabilities."

    The occasion was the Kavkaz-2012 (Caucasus-2012) military maneuvers in southern Russia,which Putin had just observed. In addition to suchstatements, the very nature of these and other mi-litary exercises being held this Autumn, as wellas the President's focus on the defense sector du-ring current intense federal budget deliberations,also make clear that the Russian leadership assu-

    mes that its country is threatened, and could beinvolved in serious combat at any moment.

    Meeting on Sept. 21 with Defense Minister Ana-

    toli Serdyukov and Chief of the Armed Forces

    General Staff Gen. Nikolai Makarov, to review

    the just-concluded Kavkaz-2012 program, Putin

    termed it "a massive undertaking," which produ-

    ced good results in testing command and control,

    as well as weapons systems. Serdyukov detailed

    that four different firing ranges in southern Rus-

    sia were used, as well as sea and coastal areas on

    the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. Most incisive

    was General Makarov's characterization of the

    exercises as having "two very serious challen-

    ges," one of them explicitly related to the tense

    situation in the region.

    FIGURE 1 U.S./NATO Military Deployments Around Russia and China

    There are indications of Russian attention to the global scope of U.S. BMD planning, that is aimed against both Russia

    and China, as can be seen in this map.

    One part of the scenario involved the potential de-ployment of the Armed Forces in conflicts withinRussia, while the other was "resolving the problemof responding to an external attack."

    Kavkaz-2012 was preceded, earlier in the month,by command-staff exercises of the Strategic Missi-le Forces. Taking place Sept. 4-7, they involved150 command points and 300 individual weaponsand other military equipment. The official newsagency Itar-TASS reported, based on a press an-nouncement made Sept. 4 by Ministry of Defensespokesman Vadim Koval, that the participantswould "hone their nuclear deterrence objectives forthe event of an armed conflict with the participa-tion of Russia." The term "nuclear deterrence ob-jectives" refers to the ability of Russia's StrategicMissile Forces to "deter" a possible U.S. nuclearfirst strike against Russia, by their ability to inflicta retaliatory nuclear strike against the United Sta-tes.

    Koval said that the scenarios involved "nucleardeterrence in the setting of a threatened armedconflict with Russia's participation, or during sucha conflict." The purpose of this training, he added,"is to improve coordination among Strategic Mis-sile Forces command agencies, as well as the prac-tical skills of the command staff and operationalgroups in directing the military command agen-cies, units, and troops subordinate to them, inclu-ding through the use of modern automated com-mand-and-control systems."

    Long-Range Planning

    The Russian decision to upgrade the particulars ofthese two, related sets of exercisesKavkaz-2012and the Strategic Missile Forces training

    evidently followed close on the heels on twoevents in late 2011: the murder of Libyan leaderQaddafi in October; and then-President DmitriMedvedev's public announcement in December,that diplomatic efforts to halt the U.S./NATO uni-lateral European Ballistic Missile Defense (EuroBMD) system from going ahead had been unsuc-cessful, that the Euro BMD was a strategic threatto Russia, and that it would be countered militari-ly.

    By January 2012, Russian military sources were

    making it known that the September 2012 scheduleof military exercises would feature complete, com-bined-arms integration. In particular, Nezavisi-maya Gazeta's well-informed military analyst re-ported Jan. 17 that the Russian General Staff wasmapping out "large-scale staff exercises based on apossible U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran"; this wouldhappen in September, and would involve the Stra-tegic Missile Forces. Furthermore, it was reportedthen, the script for Kavkaz-2012 would "differfrom last year's exercises in this series, by beinglarger-scale and more closely approximating actual

    current military and political conditions," inclu-ding a scenario of "a possible war by the U.S.A.and several other countries against Iran, as well asother possible conflicts in the Caspian and Sou-thern Caucasus region."

    Throughout preparations for Kavkaz-2012, Rus-sian defense sources described these exercises as"strategic." Russian and Georgian press reportedthat Russia had shifted the physical location of thetraining out of the Chechen Republic, in order toavoid giving Georgia's President Michael Saakash-

    vili a pretext for any wild actions. On Sept. 5, RIANovosti reported the announcement by anotherRussian Ministry of Defense spokesman, Alexan-der Kucherenko, that Russian airborne forceswould be involved in 10 different exercises duringthe month, including Kavkaz-2012, and internatio-nal maneuvers with Belarus and with the Collecti-ve Security Treaty Organization.

    Contrary to popular belief, Russian military capabilities are not to

    be likened to a rust-bucket

    Countering Euro BMD

    In an interview with Russia Today television,broadcast Sept. 6, Putin addressed an array ofstrategic matters, including the situation in Syria

    and in Southwest Asia as a whole. A recurringpolemic in the interview was that people pushingvarious scenarios in crisis areas are hell-bent ontheir short-term schemes, "and hardly ever thinkof the consequences that will follow."

    On strategic military relations, Putin said that theU.S. missile defense system now being deployed,particularly in Europe, "is surely one of the keyissues on today's agenda, because it involves Rus-sia's vital interests." He forcefully presented theRussian understanding that the Euro BMD syste-

    m's "ambition is to upset the strategic balance,which is a very dangerous thing to do, as any par-ty involved will always strive to maintain its de-fensive capabilities, and the entire thing couldsimply trigger an arms race." As for negotiationson alternatives to the unilateral U.S./NATO EuroBMD system, Putin said: "We did what wecould," citing the Russian offers of a jointmissile defense program. "Our partnersare so far refusing to go along. What elsecan we do?"

    Russia unquestionably is doing a numberof things in response, militarily. StrategicMissile Forces chief Gen. Sergey Kara-kayev, who commanded the early-September command-staff exercises, toldRIA Novosti on Sept. 3 that Russia willhave a new intercontinental ballistic missi-le deployed by 2018, which is capable ofpenetrating the Euro BMD system. "It isnecessary to note the new missiles' abilityto be invulnerable before launch, thanks totheir mobility, as well as their ability to

    tackle the task of defeating any possiblemissile defense system within the next 15-20 years, should such a need arise," Gene-ral Karakayev stated. An article on theRussia Today website noted that Kara-kayev's comments show that Russia "ispreparing an asymmetrical response bydeveloping weapons capable of breachingthe system."

    There are also official and unofficial indicationsof Russian attention to the global scope of U.S.BMD planning, as being aimed against both Rus-sia and China (while it is claimed that this is gea-red to Iran and North Korea).

    Now, the Arctic

    The issue of Asian, and even possible ArcticBMD deployments, came up in the Russian me-dia, too, in connection with a naval deploymentthat jumped into the news Sept. 20, when a heli-copter based on the nuclear-powered cruiserPyotr Veliky, the flagship of the Northern Fleet,was totalled in a hard landing. What put the acci-dent in the headlines was where it happened: inthe Kara Sea along Russia's Arctic Coast, near

    Kotelny Island in the Novosibirsk Archipelago.The incident touched off intense public discus-sion, during which one retired military officerdrew out the world-war implications of U.S. ship-based anti-missile deployments to Russia's north.

    A dark, gruesome, but wholly true depiction of the threat of

    thermonuclear war, its consequences, and Obamas deployment

    of a major portion of the U.S. thermonuclear capabilities in mul-

    tiple theaters threatening both Russia and China.

    In the past, large surface ships have ventured intothis region only if accompanied by an icebreaker,but lower Arctic ice levels have allowed the Nor-thern Sea Route to be used more freely. For decades,surface ships of the Northern Fleet have left Mur-mansk only to the west, into the Atlantic, never sai-ling eastward along the Arctic coast. According toan article by Victor Savenkov for Svpressa.ru, thelast time a large battleship was in the Kara Sea re-gion was August 1942, when a German heavy crui-ser sank the Soviet icebreaker Alexander Sibirya-kov.

    Svpressa.ru interviewed Russian naval experts onwhat the Pyotr Veliky's mission might be in the Ka-ra Sea, given that it is not an antisubmarine warfareplatform, and the type of surface ships it would po-tentially engage do not frequent the Arctic coast.Adm. Valentin Selivanov (ret.), former commanderof Russia's Mediterranean Squadron, said that, besi-

    des taking advantage of the weather to reach relati-vely nearby training areas that were not previouslyso accessible, a major factor was

    "to demonstrate that we are prepared to defend ourinterests in the Arctic militarily."

    Col. Anatoli Tsyganok, director of the Center for

    Military Forecasting, told Svpressa.ru that another

    reason might be the deployment of U.S. Aegis-

    equipped ships in the Arctic, which would position

    them within striking distance of "the shortest trajec-

    tories of our ICBMs to the USA." The Aegis radar/

    anti-missile system is the main component of the

    U.S. Euro BMD program, which Moscow identifies

    as a threat to its strategic nuclear deterrent. "It is not

    to be excluded," said Tsyganok, that the Pyotr Veli-

    ky's cruise is related to such concerns.

    FIGURE 2 Ring Around Russia: Threats to a Great Power That Wont Back Down

    President Putin told a conference on Strategic Nuclear that nuclear arms remain a truly important guarantee of

    Russias sovereignty and territorial integrity, and play a key role in supporting global and regional equilibrium and

    stability

    "The Americans are developing their BMDsystem in the north, just as in the south. Ae-gis-equipped ships regularly enter the Be-ring Strait," he asserted.

    "This is a threat to our security. Because it's

    one thing if BMD-equipped vessels appearalong our southern borders and in the Medi-terranean, but in the event of war, Russianmissiles will fly to the USA across theNorth Pole. So it's another matter altoge-ther, when such ships show up to the northof our country, and seek the ability to shootdown our missiles in the most vulnerable,boost phrase."

    Prioritizing Military Industry

    In July, Putin held meetings at his Summerresidence in Sochi, and took tours to keymilitary areas, for discussions on putting theRussian military-industrial complex intoshape. On July 26, he met with officers and officialsin charge of Russia's Strategic Nuclear Forces andAerospace Defense Troops. Deputy Prime MinisterDmitri Rogozin, Minister of Industry Denis Mantu-rov, Roscosmos head Gen. Vladimir Popovkin(ret.), and the director of the nuclear agency Rosa-tom, Sergei Kiriyenko, were in attendance, alongwith Ministry of Defense representatives. The Kre-

    mlin's announcement called it a "Meeting on Imple-mentation of the State Armaments Program for Nu-clear Deterrence," a reference to the thermonuclearweapons that would be fired at the United Statesand its allies in the event of an attack on Russia.

    Earlier, Putin held conferences on implementing thegovernment's Ground Forces and Air Force pro-grams. The session on the Strategic Nuclear Forceswas highlighted on national TV, including Putin'sstatement that "nuclear arms ... remain a truly im-portant guarantee of Russia's sovereignty and terri-

    torial integrity, and play a key role in supportingglobal and regional equilibrium and stability." Ci-ting the need for the aerospace defense system to be"in a constant state of combat readiness, taking intoaccount potential enemies' plans for developing of-fensive measures," Putin noted that "nearly all thenations that possess nuclear weapons and aerospaceassault weapons are working to improve and deve-

    lop them.

    Russia, he said, has no plans to engage in an armsrace, "but there should be no doubt as to the reliabi-lity and efficacy of our nuclear potential, as well asour aerospace defence system." He said that "a si-gnificant part of financial resources within the statearmament program" will be allocated to upgrading

    the Strategic Nuclear and Aerospace Defense For-ces.

    "By 2020 the share of modern weapons in our Stra-tegic Nuclear Forces should be at 75-80%, and forAerospace Defence Troops this figure should be noless than 70%."

    On July 30, Putin traveled to the northern city of

    Severodvinsk in the Arkhangelsk Region, to speak

    at a ceremony marking the beginning of construc-

    tion of Russia's fourth Borey-class nuclear ballistic-missile submarine, and to preside over a meeting on

    the future Navy construction program. In his re-

    marks, Putin mentioned both the naval component

    of Russia's strategic nuclear forces, and the rebuil-

    ding of other components of the Navy to defend

    areas such as the Arctic.

    Russian President Putin, addressing troops Sept. 17, on the occa-

    sion of the Kazkav-2012 military exercises, noted somberly, You

    see what is going on in the world and how, unfortunately, the use

    of force in international affairs is increasing. . . . We must increase

    Russias defense capabilities. Putin is shown here (center), ob-serving the exercises.

    The program calls for investing about 4.5 trillion ru-bles (nearly $150 billion) over the next several years,for the construction of 51 modern surface warships,16 nuclear attack submarines, and 8 nuclear ballisticmissile submarines by 2020 (2 of which are now un-dergoing trials). This will allow the share of modernvessels and equipment in the Navy to be brought to

    70% by 2020, Putin said. "Resuming the serial cons-truction of new-generation ships," he added, "shouldgo hand-in-hand with modernizing shipbuilding en-terprises and other defense industry companies."

    After these sessions devoted to each of the branchesof the Russian Armed Forces, Putin on Aug. 31 helda pair of conferences on the strategic dimensions ofeconomic policy. With Russian government and StateDuma deliberations set to resume in September onthe 2013 budget, under enormous monetarist pressu-res for budget-cutting because of the world economic

    crisis, Putin focused on the absolute priority of resto-ring Russia's military-industrial sector. Thus, thesesessions on military-economic policy also served tounderscore the tense international military-strategicsituation.

    Addressing an expanded session of the Russian Secu-rity Council, Putin presented the military moderniza-tion plans as "ambitious," and cited the "recordamounts of money" to be invested in defense procu-rement and modernization: 23 trillion rubles ($750billion) over ten years. He acknowledged that "many

    of our companies are still in the past century, techno-logically speaking," and that in the course of morethan three decades, the defense production plants"have missed out on several modernization cycles."Later in the day, Putin met with Deputy Prime Minis-ter Rogozin and Roscosmos head Popovkin to dis-cuss personnel changes to address the recent rocket-launch failures.

    At the Security Council meeting, Putin also emphasi-zed the idea, often stated by Rogozin, that the milita-ry-industrial sector should function as a locomotive

    to pull the whole economy alongor, at the veryleast, serve as a safe haven, where engineering andother skilled personnel might be preserved, even asdomestic industry as a whole comes under new pres-sures such as competition from foreign imports, nowthat Russia has joined the WTO, and budget cuts inthe so-called "state order" (government contracts).

    Regarding this potential interface between the defen-

    se industry and the economy as a whole, the problemthat bedeviled Soviet planners throughout the ColdWar, Putin said:

    "Our position is that by creating a modernized andeffective defense industry we can ensure a biggrowth potential for the entire national economy. The

    bulk of our advanced technology is in the defenseindustry, and civilian goods account for more than30% of the sector's total output. There is steady de-mand for these goods in the energy, metals, machine-building, communications, and other industries. Thisis not some discovery we have made in this country,but is the way things work all around the world. Thedefense industry has always been an engine pullingthe other manufacturing sectors along behind it. Ofcourse, a stable and effective defense industry is alsocrucial for the prosperity and prospects in life forthousands of skilled workers, engineers, and desi-

    gners. The defense industry brings together 1,353organizations and companies in 64 regions of thecountry, and employs more than 2 million people.Just think how many that makes if you add their fa-milies and the people working in related sectors andso on."

    Summarizing, Putin made a startling comparisonwith the period of the Soviet Union's first Five-YearPlans: "In short, we will have to modernize the entiredefense industry and the way it works, and carry outthe same kind of comprehensive and powerful mo-

    dernization drive that was achieved in the 1930s."The implications were not drawn out in this presenta-tion, but such a "mobilization economy" is very dif-ferent from the nostrums about privatization and"improving the investment climate," which are other-wise being repeated constantly by Russian officials,including Putin.

    Putin said Russia should not hesitate to imitate fo-reign defense technologies, but having only assemblyplants using imported components would be a "deadend," so Russia

    "should develop complete production cycles, from

    development through to mass production and spare

    parts supply, here in Russia. This is the guarantee of

    our national, technological, and defense security."

    With the recent announcement by UK and Canadianforeign Ministers that many of the embassies of bothcountries shall be melded into single missions, Ca-nadian based British agent and media mogul ConradBlack, unable to control his enthusiasm, has voiced arevealing op-ed in the right wing mouthpiece TheNational Post. The title of the op-ed reads: "TheBritish Commonwealth Will Rise Again". After re-writing history by making FDR appear to be an im-perialist, and asserting that China's new imperial-ism is meeting resistance with all of its neighbors,and predicting the breakup of Europe into two teams(winner and loser countries), Black writes:

    "There will be regional powers like Brazil and Tur-

    key, but the only other coherent force that could

    arise and occupy a role somewhat analogous to a

    great power of old would be some cohesive bloc of

    Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, India, New

    Zealand, Singapore and perhaps a few other Com-monwealth countries. The talented Australian for-

    eign minister, Bob Carr, is capable of advancing

    along these lines, and Stephen Harper and John

    Baird would do well to explore these possibilities

    also".

    It is worthwhile to note that while born in Montreal,Conrad Black is not a Canadian citizen, but rather100% British. Having received dual citizenship inCanada and UK in 2002 when the Queen of Englandgranted him peerage in the British House of Lords as

    a reward for his outstanding services to the interestsof the British Empire. Black was confronted with anultimatum by then Prime Minster Jean Chretien whohad intervened with a citation of a 1919 resolutionbarring Canadians from being members of theHouse of Lords. After a short legal battle whichBlack lost, Black renounced his Canadian citizen-ship becomingLord Black of Crossharbour.

    Since his release from US Federal Prison in May2012 after serving 36 months of a 48 month sen-tence for fraud and obstruction of justice, an unre-pentant Black has found himself re-rising to promi-nence within the Cana-dian establishmentquicker than one couldsay "Hail Britannia".

    Having been granted anunprecedented Tempo-rary Resident Permitfrom the Minister of Im-migration, Jason Kenney,who is part of the Harperconservative apparatusinstalled largely throughthe direction of the Cana-dian Neo-con Sun Mediathat had been run byBlack as part of his Holl-

    inger media empire (1).Black has also beengranted the use of all ofhis former Hollinger-Sun-Times media outlets tocontinue to mould publicopinion among Canadasright wing in line withhis masters interests.

    The context of Blacks

    Fall from power

    It appears that Conrad Blacks fall from power in2006 occurred in the context of a faction fight thathad broken out within the Canadian establishmentbetween the Liberal Party faction on the one sideand Conservative Party faction on the other.

    Lord Conrad Black Declares:

    The British Commonwealth

    Will Rise Again

    Lord Black cannot con-

    tain his exhuberance upon

    smelling the re-emergence

    of the New British Empire.

    Where the Liberal establishment was more inter-ested in maintaining its local interests and localcontrol outside of British foreign policy inten-tions, (witnessed by the Chretien Governmentsdecision to not participate in the Iraq war of 2002and Paul Martins 1998 successful blocking ofthe attempted mergers of four of Canadas fivelargest banks(1)), the Mulroney-Harper anglophileinterests in the Conservative Party had been muchmore intent to do the obedient bidding of the Cityof London and British Foreign office. This fac-tion fight led up to a collapse of the Liberal lead-ership of Paul Martin, and purging of relevantLiberal party controllers from power with theSponsorship scandal of 2005-06. By 2012, theFederal presence of the Liberal Party has becomealmost non-existent, having been hammered bythe 2011 elections that brought Harpers Conser-

    vatives their majority.

    The Fall of the Liberals

    The Liberal slaughter continues on the Provinciallevel, witnessed by the loss of one of its lastbeachheads with the Quebec election of Septem-ber 2012 that brought Pauline Marois separatistParti Quebecois (PQ) to power. The PQ is infa-mous for their intention to separate from Canada,their anti-nuclear stance, and Cap and Trade pol-icy. Of the two remaining provincial Liberal

    power holds left, British Columbia has found Lib-eral support at an all time low due largely to thefailed HST debacle in 2011. The Liberals undercurrent BC premier Christie Clark are preparingto be swept away in favour of the New Democ-ratic Party (NDP) during the upcoming electionsin May 2013. The challenging NDP of British

    Columbia, just like the PQ of Quebec are in fa-vour of those resource grabbing policies whichare expedient to the British Empires geopoliticalinterests (echoing the free market logic of the furtrade), yet push the green agenda of renewableenergies (except nuclear), and cap and trade. It isindicative to note that NDP leader Thomas Mul-cair has just been made a Privy Councillor to theQueen on September 18 2012, possibly in prepa-ration to replace the Harper regime in 2014.

    During this past year Stephen Harper (PrivyCouncillor since 2005) has stepped up the use ofthe broad power granted to him via his partysmajority government, to push through every Brit-ish policy demanded of him in short order, re-branding the Canadian Military with the termRoyal, melding many Canadian and British

    Embassies around the world, converting Canadainto an official fist of the Monarchy in the execu-tion of wars with Libya, promoting wars withIran and Syria, and falsely accusing Russia oftrying to steal Canadas arctic sovereignty.

    Canadas role as a chess piece in this GreatGame involves returning Canada to its roots asan aggressive weapon in the Empires arsenal, notseen since the days of the Boer Wars. This colo-nial function demands Canada act as a subversiveagency to the intentions of nations aspiring sover-

    eign development. The accomplishment of thistask involves 1) serving as canon fodder for im-perial wars abroad, and 2) trapping unwitting na-tions into reliance upon its abundant cheap re-sources via the logic of the fur trade aka freetrade. The question now worth asking is: willChina and India fall prey to the seductive fly trapof Canadas natural gas and resources in the con-text of Lord Blacks nightmarish vision? Or willthey tighten their bonds of survival with Russiaand help usher in a new age of development andpeace?

    A third question arises: In the context of an alli-ance for progress and peace among nations, willCanada finally throw off the yoke of our imperialtraditions and become a mature republic once andfor all?

    (1) On December 14, 1998, then Finance Minster Paul Martin

    rejected the major bank mergers of Royal Bank of Canada

    with the Bank of Montreal, and CIBC with Toronto Domin-ion, citing too much concentration of economic power in

    Canada in the hands of too few financial institutions. Neither

    Martins role in Canadian policy, nor the Chretien govern-

    ment he then operated under should be assumed to be a force

    for good. The sense of self-interest, and nationalist tendency

    within the partys elders (while pragmatic more than princi-

    pled) should not be missed when evaluating the anomalies

    which mark the changes in behaviour of Canadian policy.

    This was followed immediately by Harpers renam-ing the main wall in the Canadian Foreign OfficeHead Quarters the Sovereign Wall, deriving itsname from the gigantic mural sized portrait ofQueen Elisabeth. Not only was this unsightly por-trait forced into public display in one Ottawa build-ing, but an accompanying order was passed forcingportraits of the Queen to be mounted upon the wallsof every Canadian embassy in the world. Whilemany onlookers watched in bewilderment, the fa-natic anglophile could still be heard shouting butthe Monarchy is only a symbol! The British Empirecarries no real power!

    Embassies Unite

    As of September 23 2012, many Canadian embas-sies the world over will no longer simply have Ca-

    nadian flags hanging from their flag poles, butrather the Canadian ambassadors and their respec-tive staff within and the Canadian Maple leaf flagwithout will now be joined with British ambassa-dors and the Union Jack. Ministers of Foreign Af-fairs of the UK and Canada (John Baird and Wil-liam Hague) have officially announced the melding

    of the embassies ofboth nations! Ostensi-bly, this measure isbeing undertaken tosave money, but the

    true motive for suchovert consolidation ofthe British Empirespossessions can onlybe addressed if one letsgo of all popular illu-sions regarding the true

    workings of the shadow empire maintained by theLondon Centered oligarchy. This process is madethe more dangerous as the Empire is not unaware-ness of the demise of its own monetary system.

    During the context of the collapse of the British runworld monetary system, these policies are intendedto do nothing less then set fire to the entire Africanand Middle Eastern worlds, by fuelling what Sam-uel P Huntington dubbed the Clash of Civiliza-tions doctrine, to the point of risking thermonu-clear warfare with Russia and China.

    Stephen Harper and Thomas

    Mulcair: Agents of the British

    Empire.

    For those who still believe that the Privy Council ofCanada is merely a relic of old traditions long dead exer-

    cising no more control than the Queen, they would do

    well to re-consider that view as it is not the people, or

    parliament who hold the allegiance of those who are

    introduced into its roster, but rather the Queen of Eng-

    land.

    I, [name], do solemnly and sincerely swear that I shall

    be a true and faithful servant to Her Majesty Queen

    Elizabeth the Second, as a member of Her Majesty's

    Privy Council for Canada. I will in all things to be

    treated, debated and resolved in Privy Council, faith-

    fully, honestly and truly declare my mind and my opin-

    ion. I shall keep secret all matters committed and re-

    vealed to me in this capacity, or that shall be secretly

    treated of in Council. Generally, in all things I shall do

    as a faithful and true servant ought to do for Her Maj-

    esty.

    That both Stephen Harper, as well as NDP leader Tho-

    mas Mulcair have taken this oath of allegiance and se-

    crecy should send alarm bells in the minds of any think-

    ing citizen. This also means that these illustrious menhave joined the ranks with such national disasters and

    foreign agents of influence as Maurice Strong, Paul Des-

    marais of Powercorp, Lord Conrad Black, Prince Phillip

    of Edinburg, and the current head of the powerful Cana-

    dian Council of Chief Executives (CCCE) John Manley.

    Being a member of this select group does not immedi-

    ately prove an individual is engaged in treason anymore

    than someones participation in a Bilderberger meeting

    or freemasonic society. It does however speak volumes

    if the person in question is actively carrying out the in-tentions of a financial oligarchy which has explicitly

    stated their intention to reduce the world population

    from the current 7 billion to less than one (see

    Environmentalism and the General Welfare Make Poor

    Bedfellows on page 21).

    In 2007, headlines across Canada echoed the spiritof the Cold war, as Canadian Defense Minister Pe-ter Mackay screamed that Canadas arctic sover-eignty was threatened and that a greedy resourcegrab of valuable Canadian territory had occurred.Stephen Harper immediately announced plans topurchase three arctic patrol ships, (later confirmingthree unmanned drones) to defend Canadas truenorth strong and free. The Russian aggressors

    had to be put in their place. What had provoked thisunbalanced response from a Canada that had dem-onstrated no active interest in the Arctic or its de-velopment for decades? As it turned out, a Russiansubmarine had placed a Russian flag near the NorthPole along a disputed territory known as the Lo-monosov Ridge. As facts would later reveal, theRussian submarine was on nothing more than a sci-entific study.

    While large components of the abrupt militarization

    of the Arctic announced by Harper in 2007, wereput on hold due to the economic crisis that spikedin 2009, it had not at all disappeared, as we nowfind the seeds of this orchestrated tension springingup yet again. This is evidenced by the October 5th

    announcement of the Canadian Geological Surveyand Natural Resources Canada that 1.75 millionsquare kilometres of seabed in the Arctic and NorthAtlantic oceans are definitively the sole property of

    Canada. These claims are the substance of a multi-thousand page submission of 25 studies submittedin October to the United Nations Convention on theLaw of the Sea (UNCLOS) which had adopted anew formula for determining national coastalboundaries in 2003. Nations had been given 10years to conduct studies and submit claims for ex-panded territory beyond the current 12 nauticalmiles (22.2 km) off coastal land. If these claims areapproved, then Canadas current area of 9.9 millionsquare kilometres will increase by 20% (or the sizeof Quebec). Two of the most important territorial

    claims involve the Alpha Ridge mountain extend-ing past the North Pole, and the other is the Lo-monosov Ridge.

    The Seeds of World War Begin toGrow

    Today, as tense hotspots have been built up in Syriaand Iran, which could easily unfold into a nuclearshowdown between Russia and China pitted againstNATO countries, a less understood component tothe orchestration of general war exists in the do-

    main of territorial conflicts around the Pacific, Arc-tic and Atlantic Oceans.

    This strategy cannot be understood unless the

    reader comprehend that the only opposition to a

    new British Empire (one world government) is to

    be found in the coalition of Russia, China and Ar-

    gentina.

    Will Increased Canadian Arctic Territory beused to Provoke War with Russia?By Matthew Ehret-Kump

    These three nations have made their full nationalpolicy commitments center on the right to nationalsovereignty, international cooperation, technologi-cal progress, and have committed to effective waravoidance measures ever since the assassination ofLibyas President Gaddafi. Nations of the non-aligned movement representing over two thirdsof the world population have rallied stronglyaround these three pillars.

    In the Pacific Ocean, Japans brash nationalizationof the five uninhabited islets (known by Japan asSenkaku and by China as Diaoyu) has re-sulted in an international crisis pitting Chinaagainst Japan. China faces the danger of anotherterritorial conflict sparked by the the President ofthe Philippines who decided late in 2011 that theSouth China Sea should be re-named the East

    Philippines Sea. What most media reports leaveout when discussing these hot spots, is that boththe Philippine President Benigno Aquino III, aswell as the Japan President Noda, have bothagreed recently to host U.S. military bases as partof the new Air-Sea battle plan designed around thecontainment of China and documented in La-RouchePACs recent feature film Unsurvivable(1). This military strategy has seen two U.S Ohioclass submarines deployed to the Pacific theatre,each packing Trident nuclear warheads.

    Other more official British colonies such as Aus-tralia are being used to contain China within thenew Air-Sea Battle Plan, as Australian PM JuliaGillard has agreed to host two US military baseson its territory which Chinese military officialshave identified as representing direct strategicthreats. Due to the new UNCLOS measures, Aus-tralia has recently expanded its undersea territoryby 2.5 million square kilometres (or 1/3 its totalland area) in 2008.

    As small minded (often unwitting) pawns of theBritish Empire do the Matriarchs dirty work on

    the Pacific theatre, the British military has sprunginto aggressive direct action in the Atlantic as aresponse to Argentinas recent re-affirmation thatthe Malvinas Islands are (and have always been) apart of Argentina. Indeed, the Islands were in factstolen by the British Empire during the early 1833war with Argentina, and have been maintained as

    a British colony ever since. The British responseto Argentinas claim has been to 1) reject all Ar-gentine offers of dialogue and 2) deploy a De-stroyer battleship and one of its four HMS Van-guard nuclear armed submarines to the coast of theMalvinas (which they continue to call theFalklands). The irony in this instance is thatBritains basis for its military deployment is cen-tered on its accusation that Argentina is acting likea colonialist. This absurd accusation persists,despite Argentine President Christina Kirchnersinsistence of the fact that Britains continuedclaim of the Falklands remains illegitimate ac-cording to the UN Special Committee on Decolo-nization.

    The Consequences of IgnoringReality

    One year after Russia was scorned by Peter Mac-kay and Harper fortrying to steal Can-adas arctic sover-eignty, Russia hadfound itself the sub-ject of an attack bySoros Georgian pup-pet president MikheilSaakashvili in 2008.Saakashvilis attackon Russias protector-ate in South Ossetiaresulted in a brief war that ended five days afterhaving begun. Saakashvili attempted to illegallyclaim South Ossetia as Georgian territory. At thattime, Georgia was not a part of NATO, and had itbeen, all relevant NATO members would havebeen drawn into that conflict in Georgias defence.Today, Saakashvili has been replaced by yet an-other billionaire puppet that has made Georgiasadmission to NATO a primary objective.

    With literally dozens of explosive powder kegsplaced all around the world which couldnt existas detonators for war were it not for the belief inresource scarcity and monetary rules to whichour behaviour and thoughts must conform, theworld is sitting on the edge of a self-imposed ex-tinction.

    By Jonathon Ludwig

    American economist Lyndon LaRouches propos-als for a Eurasian Landbridge and Russias currentproposal for the Bering Strait Rail Tunnel connec-tion from Vladivostok through 100 km of water toAlaska and into Canada are not new. These vision-ary proposals are a long time in the making andhave represented a tormenting nightmare to sev-eral generations of imperial geopoliticians.

    By the turn of the 20th century, Russian Transport

    Minister Count Sergei Witte working in tandemwith American System leaders and engineers inSiberia were completing the final stretch of theTrans-Siberian Railway. This development fol-lowed 1) hot on the heels of Lincolns victorioussuppression, with the help of Russias Czar Alex-ander II, of the British financed Confederate upris-ing in 1865, 2) the 1867 United States purchase ofAlaska from Russia, and 3) the near annexation ofBritish Columbia into America in 1870 (1). Thefeasibility studies to connect the two continentswere first presented by the Trans-Siberian Railway

    Company in 1905(2).

    The British Empire at the

    time was known as the old man of Europe andin all intents and purposes was on the verge ofextinction.

    Mackinders geopolitics demands a closedsystem

    In 1904, as aresponse to thesedevelopments,British Fabian

    Society memberand director ofthe LondonSchool of Eco-nomics Sir Hal-ford Mackinder,formulated as c h o o l o f thought knownas Geopolitics.This study hasinfluenced all

    imperial strate-g i s t s w h oemerged fromthe 20th centuryfrom Rhodesscholar WilliamYandell Elliot, his Harvard students Sir HenryKissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Bernard Lewis aswell as Samuel P. Huntington to name a few. Itwas also the foundation for the Heartland theoryextolled by Nazi geopolitician Karl Haushofer andadopted by Hitler.

    Mackinders program was little more than a refor-mulated divide to conquer policy already prac-ticed for centuries by the British Empire, andarose entirely as a response which the threat Lin-colns American System program of rail develop-ment posed to the continued existence of the fail-ing British Empire as mentioned above.

    Mackinders Geopolitics versusLaRouches World Landbridge

    (1) Were it not for Britains offer to bribe BC merchants during a

    heated period of 1867-1870, all onlookers from Canada and the USA

    alike believed that this British colony was nearly about to incorporate

    into America, as this provided the only economically viable options

    available for the bankrupt colony. The Transcontinental railway had

    just been built into San Francisco and an active ferry system connected

    the BC merchants to the USA. The British had to move fast and did so

    by 1) paying off British Columbias massive debt, and 2) then purchas-

    ing the massive territory separating its eastern and western colonies

    also known as Ruperts Land and owned by the Hudsons Bay Com-

    pany in 1868 and 3) finally promising to build a railway connecting

    BC to Eastern Canada which was accomplished in 1885. The only

    condition was that British Columbia join the Confederation and not

    choose the American option.

    (2) Funds totalling six million dollars were raised privately,

    concluding the project could be done for $300 million. An

    editorial in the New York Times of October 24th, 1905, ob-

    served that the Bering Strait Tunnel is a project which at

    some time in the future is likely to command a great deal of

    very purposeful consideration.

    Sir Halford Mackinder summarized

    his theory: Who rules East Europecommands the Heartland; Who rules

    the Heartland commands the World

    Island; Who rules the World Island

    commands the World."

    Not only did rail pose a threat to the Empire, but theadvent of the new energy dense fuel source knownas petroleum was threatening to replace the largelymonopolized (and less energy dense) coal for indus-trial production.

    From Japans Meiji Restoration, to Chancellor vonBismarcks Berlin to Baghdad Rail initiative, to

    R u s s i a s T r a n s -Siberian Railway, inter-continental develop-ment driven by Ameri-can System rail pro-grams were initiatingnew dynamics of coop-eration and develop-ment amongst all na-tions of North Amer-

    ica, Europe, Russia andAsia. Most impor-tantly, these pro-development ap-proaches to nationale c o n o m i e s w e r efounded on the con-certed rejection of allBritish Free Tradedogma and the vigor-ous adoption of theprotective tariff, pro-

    ductive credit and longterm planning, all act-ing under the principleof the general welfare.

    To their horror, the British Empire was witnessing aworldwide emergence of the American System.

    After successful expeditions to the South and NorthPole had been accomplished by 1909, Mackinderdeclared, like Malthus before him that all that couldbe discovered on the Earth had been discovered, andthat human society was now officially locked withinan absolutely closed system. All that remained wasfor leading monopolies to map out finite resources,and get victim nations to slaughter each other interritorial disputes that would necessarily occur asthe outcome of each striving to possess as many ofthese finite resources as possible before they ranout. This would be achieved by getting nations tolook at the future not from the American Systemstandpoint of their creative potentials to change

    those limits for the better, but rather from the mone-tarist free market filter of pleasure-pain and momen-tary profit. Were the bestial dynamic of each againstall not adopted, all hope for world dominationwould be lost.

    Mackinders theory was expressed most clearly inhis observation: "Who rules East Europe commandsthe Heartland; Who rules the Heartland commands

    the World Island; Who rules the World Island com-

    mands the World."

    Reality is an Open System

    In the logic of empire, nations must be kept fightingeach other in a closed system of absolute scarcity.Rather than creatively moving outside of those lim-its by discovering new principles of the universe,

    and creating new energy sources such as nuclearfission, thermonuclear fusion power, or desalinatingocean water to green deserts, nations have beentold, rather arbitrarily, that scarcity has to be re-spected and, like beasts, adapted to in a survival ofthe fittestparadigm.

    Lincoln admirer von Bismarck

    was among the many world

    statesmen importing the Ameri-

    can System by the end of the

    19th century. His ouster would

    lead to the unleashing of WorldWars 1 and 2. See the film 1932

    This logic has been used to manipulate idiots withpolitical power into initiating almost every singleun-necessary war during this past century, andgoverns the geopolitical thinking that is resultingin potential territorial conflict the world over to-day.

    According the BP Statistical Review of WorldEnergy 2011, this past year has witnessed thegreatest drop of nuclear energy use on record(with a 4.3% fall) while coal has become theworlds fastest growing fuel (totalling 30.3% ofglobal use). While green energies such as windand solar power have risen by 25.8% and 86.6%respectively, their combined total contribution toglobal energy consumption is a measly 2.1%.

    The energy required to produce renewable en-ergies far outweigh their output while the wastedland area required to sustain them is not only badeconomics, but it is more importantly, the sicklyeffects of a community of nations turning theirbacks on 600 years of progress and embracing anideology which will permit no more than one bil-lion humans living in political, mental and physi-cal conditions not terribly different from feudal-ism.

    Today, new energy sources await the political

    will to overcome those boundary limits met by

    our current addiction to fossil fuels and ineffi-

    cient green renewables. On top of the prospect

    of connecting Eurasian countries in a New Silk

    Road known as the World Landbridge and Ber-

    ing Strail Tunnel, the new frontier defining Mack-inders fraud is located in the prospect of un-

    bounded space exploration, lunar and Mars in-

    dustrialization and asteroid defence.

    None of these are utopian fantasies, but ratheractive policies either already being applied byleading nations such as China and Russia, or be-ing offered by leaders among those nations suchas Russian Deputy Prime Minister DmitryRogozins offer for Strategic Defense of Earth(SDE), and Russian Transport Minister Yakunins

    Bering Strait proposal.

    The effect of continuing to tolerate the limits wefind imposed upon ourselves as a species, willentail not only undoing the industrial revolution,but also ushering in new wars with the use ofthermonuclear weapons, risking the extermina-tion of humanity.

    LaRouches World Landbridge is already becoming a reality in Eastern Russia and Asia. Will

    the rest of the world wake up in time to get on board?

    When the consequences of a gambling addictioncatch up to the addict, were his immediate re-sponse not to seek help, but to sell his children, thefuture for that family would become bleak indeed.This response is pitifully tragic when committedby any individual, but criminally insane whencommitted by the leadership of national govern-ments entrusted by the people with the care of thecommon good.

    Although criminally insane, it is specifically thismindset which is the driving force behind FedChairman Ben Bernankes recent unleashing ofanother (QE3) bailout, Obamas calls for guttingSocial Security and Medicare in order to raise thedebt ceiling, and the similar behavior of bailoutsand fascist cuts being demanded by the IMF andECB in Europe. In the midst of this torrent of in-sanity, the voice of the people is increasingly call-ing for the abolishment of speculative monopolymoney and returning to national banking programsunder a global Glass-Steagall reform (1).

    To exacerbate this crisis even more, we find that a

    global policy is being implemented on the behalfof the British empires Inter Alpha group (2)through their control of the Green movement tocrush those last remnants of frontier science whichhumanity still has at its disposal, and which, undera new system could be mobilized to build our wayout of this multi-generational crisis.

    It has long been understood by the empire and itsopponents, that it is functionally in the domain of

    science and technology that mankinds true role as

    a unique species of unbounded potential expressesitself, and in that fact, so too melts away any so-phistical justification for the existence of the para-sitical system of oligarchy, which rather seeks tokeep humanity enslaved as cattle in fixed systemsof zero growth. This anti-science (and anti-human) intention expressed by controllers of theGreen movement such as Prince Philip, involvebringing humankinds population to levelsacceptable to a governing elite according tomathematical models known as carrying capac-ity.

    As Plato once warned, it is the desire for one`sshackles that maintains a slave more effectivelythanforcing shackles upon him. Hence, it has alsobeen that long term intention to bring societysbehaviour and values into conformity with an oli-garchical model that is the underlying cause ofGermanys suicidal decision to exit from Nuclearby 2020, Harpers selloff of AECL and Obamasabolishment of the manned space program. Thecausal intention is nothing less than those geno-cidal effects which will result due to such policies.

    The Green-Blue Paradox

    This context must be kept in mind when consider-ing the new phenomenon sweeping the Canadianpolitical landscape between two irreconcilablemovements. That is, the marriage of labour andenvironmentalism which is manifesting itself mostclearly within the New Democratic Party (NDP)and Quebecs Parti Quebecois (PQ) as of this writ-ing. The argument for a green-blue marriage isbased not on science but rather on the fallaciousassumption that manmade activities and CO2

    emissions are the primary drivers for GlobalWarming and must be halted at all cost. The onlysolution to this non-existent problem proposed bythose powers attempting to orchestrate the mar-riage involve the drastic elimination of thosemeans of sustaining advanced civilization via:

    1) Reduction of high energy density technologiessuch as nuclear power

    2) The elimination of CO2 emissions via new specu-lative cap and trade programs and

    3) The advancement of low energy dense power sys-tems such as wind, solar, geothermal and tidal powerwhich lack the power density to sustain the industrialneeds of a technologically advanced, populationdense mode of society.

    All three factors are designed to have one commonobjective: The reduction of the world populationfrom the current 7 billion to less than 1 billion. Thispolicy was outlined in blood curdling detail in therecent report by the Scientific Advisory Council ofthe Federal Government of Germany on Global En-vironmental Changes (WBGU)(4)whose directorHans Joachim Schellnhuber was recently quoted assaying: ``In a cynical way, it's a triumph for sciencebecause at last we have stabilized something--

    namely the estimates for the carrying capacity of the

    planet, namely below 1 billion people. What a tri-

    umph. On the other hand, do we want this alterna-

    tive? I think we can do much, much better.'' It is nowonder that Schellnhuber was awared Commanderof the British Empire by Queen Elisabeth in 2004.

    To any humanist, the contradiction in the attemptedmarriage of labour movements which support the

    general welfare and anti humanist environmentalismis blatant. The awareness of this contradiction wasmade evident in the heated fight during the 2011Vancouver NDP convention, between the true labourand green factions, who fiercely battled over the at-tempted greening of the Party constitution, replacingprinciples of social justice to conservation.While that amalgamation of green-blue was success-fully resisted then, a new wave has begun, with thesame desired effect.

    The arguments which attempt to justify the un-

    natural alliance are not merely fallacies, but actuallyreflect a moral disease festering in the minds of theCanadian people which must be overcome quickly.The reality is that the entire world system is in thelast throws of a general collapse whose causes arelargely to be found in the unwillingness of the politi-

    cal leadership to confront the Inter-Alpha Group`simmense stranglehold over our national economies.

    As Lyndon Larouche has been saying for decades;nothing within the monetarist logic will solve thistype of physical crisis. Nothing short of a fundamen-

    tal abolishment of the artificial rules of monetarismin favour of a return to clean Hamiltonian bankingpractices on a global level will open any pathway toa future worth living in. That means that no opinionsjustifying budget cuts, hyperinflationary bailout, orgreen population reduction as solutions to this cri-sis shall be respected as legitimate.

    A Lesson from Physical Economics

    In the science of physical economics, we learn that itis mankinds increasing power within and over the

    universe which is the invariant metric of value. Notmoney. Interestingly, it is not only a characteristicof human life which expresses this potential of crea-

    tive anti-entropy, but contrary to the popular delu-

    sion now taught in schools, the universe as a whole

    exhibits this same power of constant self develop-

    ment. Moving from energy sources of lower fluxdensity to higher flux density as we see with theleaps of wood to coal, coal to uranium, and beyondin human society represents the same function ex-pressed in lower orders of life developing new tech-nologies such as chlorophyll, and permitting for

    greater metabolic activity of life on earth (see fig-ure1 on next page).

    This increase of powers of energy to accomplishincreased work is known as energy flux density inphysical economics. The truth of this power uniqueto the human condition is one which necessitates ourtotal abolishment of all forms of energy policywhich have the effect of:

    1) Reducing our power to act on the universethrough forcing a decrease of energy flux density

    2) Reducing human population growth3) Reducing our intensive expansion of global in-vestments into all anti-inflationary (and anti-entropic) activities of the type outlined on thewww.larouchepac.com/infrastructure page.

    In fact, the only power sourcewith the energy flux densityadequate to support the perpet-ual growth of these three fac-tors at once, is to be found inthe domain of third and fourthgeneration nuclear energy, ther-

    monuclear fusion, and eventualMatter-Antimatter processes.Each increase of power upwardmust be subsumed within ahigher Moon to Mars (and be-yond) colonization outlook.Windmills, and solar panelsoffer only self destruction (5).

    It is this optimistic outlook andthe associated means of actual-izing its aims, that not onlybuilt the best aspects of ourcivilization (which are now suf-fering from neglect, privatization, and cuts), butwhich will again be the efficient Power behind ourstill possible survival. The participation of a re-formed Canada in an alliance of sovereign nationstates for the passage of a Global Glass-Steagall,followed by a return to fixed exchange rates as de-scribed under LaRouches New Bretton Woods re-mains a possible third option beyond that of chaos,and despotism now being offered to the credulous.

    Market forces be damned, humanity

    comes first.

    The means thus established for a Hamiltonian creditsystem usher in the next question:

    How can labour return to its roots as an uncompro-mising defender of social justice, and scientific andtechnological progress which have defined our na-tions best character for generations? How can Cana-dian labour help kick start the re-industrialization ofourselves and our neighbours abroad, using the mostadvanced science and technology for the common

    interests of all?

    This bold change in paradigm could not be done formonetary profit, nor to appease market forces, andnot possibly to make jobs. This change could only

    occur with the understanding that it is the creativepowers of human cognition which permit for theincrease of humanity`s power over the universe andis expressed formally as a measure of our potentialrelative population density.

    Today, no source of energy existent aside from Nu-clear fission and thermonuclear Fusion will ever per-mit for the equitable increase of those material stan-dards of life to levels high enough to supply the dig-nity and freedom so necessary for those creative

    powers of our species to express themselves, andwith them, the necessary and moral precondition forself-governance.

    If we succumb through ignorance, or inaction, to themonetarist and environmentalist propaganda by re-jecting those frontiers of nuclear energy and spaceexploration, it is not merely the financial oligarchy,but ourselves that will be judged guilty for the geno-cide that will be unleashed.

    By Pascal Chevrier

    The use of nuclear power is neither a political nor

    an ideological issue; it is the most powerful scien-

    tific-economic breakthrough that occurred during

    the 20th Century. The scientific and physical eco-

    nomic aspects of nuclear power have not been ac-

    knowledged by any of Qubecs political leader-

    ship. The political parties have shown no under-

    standing of these attributes whatsoever. Our con-

    cern is that ignorance on this important matter is

    not confined to the political class. This is why we

    submit the present article to the scrutiny of all our

    fellow citizens.

    As humanity is confronted with the biggest finan-cial-economic crisis it has ever experienced and aset-up for potential world war in the Middle-Eastcockpit, we citizens must choose to either sink withthis dying system into a new global dark age or af-fect an evolutionary change that is lawfully craftedon the anti-entropic behaviour of our universe. Thelatter would assure our common survival, butmeanwhile, contradictory decisions are being madeby our political leaders

    Case Study: The Shutdown of Gentilly-2

    The recent statement by Parti Qubcois (PQ) lead-ers calling for closing the Gentilly-2 nuclear reactorcomes as no real surprise as it was already a knownintention of the party, specified in their latest elec-toral platform (1). The official declaration was madetwo weeks after the September 4th election of a PQ-minority government, without a rational explana-tion of the decision other than the green ideologicalfad of so-called renewable energies and some tax

    money-saving rhetoric. In fact, the majority (threeout of five) of Quebecs political parties running forthe last provincial elections had already written nu-clear energy out of Quebecs future. While both theLiberals and the Coalition Avenir Qubec (CAQ)were advocating the refurbishment of the nuclear

    plant; they were doing so for the wrong small-minded reasons. The closing was made official asof October 3rd by Hydro-Qubecs CEO ThierryVandal and will take effect at the end of 2012. Ob-viously, distrust and anger has been growing espe-cially from the families of the 800 specialized em-ployees that will be losing their jobs due to theshutting down of the power plant.

    With the intention of panicking the public into ac-quiescing to the shut down of Gentilly-2, a docu-mentary was aired on September 17th on ChanelTl-Qubec entitled Gentilly or not to be(2). Noth-ing grandiose has to be said about the documentary,which began with footage of nuclear bomb explo-sions, as the intent was clear: who could trust anenergy source of that type? Then paranoia sets inwith a barrage of frightening reports on the dangersof radiation, possible catastrophes that could hap-pen in the future, the complications of waste dis-posal, environmental contamination, stillbirths,etc

    Once upon a time, Qubec could have been a leaderin nuclear technology. Hydro-Qubecs plan in the

    1970s was to build about 30 nuclear reactors alongthe St Lawrence River- an opportunity missedwhen the PQ government of the time voted to in-definitely halt the construction of new nuclearplants.

    Is Qubec Committing Scientific Suicide?

    to set the record straight the Canadian Nuclear Security Com-

    mission (CNSC) wrote the short report on every falsehood in

    the documentary.

    Instead of putting wind-

    mills close to their

    plants, the nuclear

    industry should fight to

    educate people on the

    principle of energy fluxdensity.

    Both succumbing to, and encouraging the hystericalfear promoted by the environmentalist lobby sur-rounding the dangers of nuclear technology, it wasarranged that dams were to be built in James Bay andManicouagan region instead. Quebec then became aworld leader in hydro-powered systems although thedream of having a nuclear powered Quebec was

    dropped and forgotten.

    It is important to note that the arguments forexitingnuclear, and replacing it with lower grade energysources such as wind and solar are founded upon theunscientific fallacy that energy must only meet house-hold electricity needs. But Nuclear technology isnot only about providing electricity. It has many otherpurposes. Carbon-14 is used to date archaeologicalfindings; medical isotopes are used for either imagingand/or therapy. Recall the crisis of shortages whichoccurred when Ontarios Chalk River reactor (which

    produced more than 50% of the worlds medical iso-tope needs) had to be shutdown for over a year. Nu-clear is a denser form of power that can be used todesalinate water, to procure new isotopes, and powerheavy industries which could never exist under lowerrenewable energy sources.

    The Empire: making a bloodless killing

    Since the end of WorldWar II, many organiza-tions have been foundedby individuals formerly

    associated with theeugenics societys lead-ership, many of themcrown-bearing. Theydecided that their Empirewould prevail throughnew ways of makingpopulation reduction ac-ceptable to their dumbeddown subjects. Theirchoice of re-introducing

    eugenics thinking back into society was wildlife con-

    servation or if you prefer, environmentalism. Afteryears of propaganda that has shaped popular opinioninto believing that mankind is the environments topenemy, this ideology has now become a newMalthusian dogma whose mantra has becomedont feed the poor/ save the environment! The pro-development and anti-war policies of two Kennedybrothers and Martin Luther King Jr. were sabotaged

    and turned into an anti-human religion as the worldeconomic system was transformed with the 1971 de-struction of the Bretton Woods System into a clash oftwo mutually contradictory polarities. Short-term fi-nancial profits under a monetarist ideology were setup on one side and an anti-science population reduc-tion ideology on the other. These assassinations, of

    the political and moral leadership of the 1960s, weremeant to usher in a new paradigm of cultural pessi-mism.

    The Club of Rome and other think tanks have pub-lished books like The Population Bomb, Global2000 and Limits to Growth to warn of impendingdoom if the worlds population is not culled rapidly.Today, in 2012, Prince Philip, the Queens consort,and his financiers acolytes still promote a maximumcarrying capacity of the Earth of less then 2 billionpeople. The most important tool this oligarchy has, isour uneducated fear. This ignorant fear can lead notonly to the denial of the necessary technologies forthird world countries to develop, but also a destruc-tion of those similar advanced technologies so neces-sary to our own survival. Since the shift into post-industrial consumerism that followed the countercul-ture revolt of 1968, western culture has almost en-tirely lost the idea of producing for the needs of thefuture, choosing instead the immoral path to hellfounded on the baby boomer motto of live for to-day.

    The insane fear of radiation

    The illustrious physicist Edward Teller used to jokethat a man would get more radiation from sleepingwith two women than living next to a nuclear plant.Though you may or may not find this image offen-sive, it is still nonetheless true. Radioactivity perme-ates every inch of our universe. It is in the food weeat, in the soil we step on, it is emitted from the Sunthat shines upon us and even originates from the cellsin our own body! The doses of radiations we receivefrom artificial sources such as nuclear plants- areinfinitesimal in comparison. For example: Every

    year, Canadians are exposed on average of about 1.8millisieverts (mSv) from natural background radia-tion. This means that in one year, residents living inTrois-Rivires and Bcancour get 900 times moreradiation from natural background radiation than fromthe man-made radiation of Gentilly-2 (3).

    Some might ask the question What is the dose ofradiation thats normal for a human being? Thereis no satisfying answer that anyone can give be-yond a certain minimum and maximum bracket.Some argue, supporting their statement with LNT(4), that any exposure to radiation is harmful, re-gardless of what the doses may be, and thereforesuch people will develop a sophistry that will con-clude that, half the dose of radiation will causehalf the amount of cancers. These are clearlysimplistic views that reflect a profound ignoranceon the part of the interlocutors. Not only is a cer-tain amount of radiation necessary for life, but lowdose radiation within certain bandwidths has beenproven to both extend longevity and combat can-cer!

    Dont buy gold Increase energy-

    flux density!

    An elementary question that must be asked is:What gives value to anything? Whether we arelooking at gold, wood or even uranium, fromwhere and to what enddoes its value arise? Thinkof our old relative, the caveman. What did hevalue? What was useful to his survival? Sometools, yes, but what is the principle permitting for

    the power of tool-making? What is behind thebronze and iron ages,? What made them possible?It is important to get this question right, sincethese new tools were more valuable to our ances-tors and to human civilization than any preciousmineral or metal. What is the underlying principlethat carried out these discoveries? Creativity is ourhuman gift, and the concepts applied and en-hanced every time a fundamental discovery ismade is what we call the concept of energy fluxdensity (5) , or otherwise theprinciple of fire devel-oped at length by Lyndon LaRouche in many ofhis economic papers (6) for over 50 years.

    Energy flux density is the standard by which en-ergy production must be studied and must definewhich form of energy among a given spectrum ofchoices is selected by society. Physical economics,the modern science founded by Gottfried Leibnizin the 17th century, was developed around theconcept of steam-powered machines applied toenhance the work of mankind while alleviating theneed for capital intensive human or animal labour.The per capita and per square kilometre output ofenergy is the valid measure to understand whichenergy production will be able to power cities oftwo thousand or two million citizens. The readersshould look at a very good study on the subject formore extended data (7). Using this criteria we mustcome to recognize that nuclear fission power is an

    unbeatable option in todays world, as it is ordersof magnitude higher in output than wind, solar andfossil fuel-powered plants. Modern society neces-sitates a shift towards an atomic renaissance.

    (4) The linear no-threshold model (LNT) is a model used in radiationprotection to estimate the long term, biological damage caused by

    ionizing radiation. It assumes that this damage is directly proportional

    to the dose at all dose levels.

    A fuel bundle 500 mm long, 100 mm in diameterand weighing 22 kg could be carried in an over-night bag. When put in a CANDU reactor, it canproduce as much energy as burning about 400 tonsof coal or 2000 barrels of oil (8). wind and solarenergy are not calculable under these metrics (9),but in terms of power potential, are orders of mag-nitude inferior. Quebecs energy makeup is Hy-dro: 94.8 %, fossil fuel: 2.6 %, nuclear: 2.1 %,wind: 0.3 %, biomass/wastes: 0.2 %. That is tosay, that 1 nuclear power plant (Gentilly-2) gener-ates almost ten times more power then 393 wind-mills! How much land(10) is wasted on a technol-ogy that will only fuel a new dark age?

    Speeding up the Renaissance

    While this article is being written, Japan has an-nounced that it is not only reopening closed nu-

    clear plants (40% capacity was shut down in thewake of the Fukushima hysteria in 2011), but isalso launching the construction of new ones. Thenuclear renaissance is also on its way in Russia,China, Argentina and India as their governmentshave declared war on the short-term, anti-sciencethinking so popular in the west. Advances in newtechnologies such as thorium-based fission reac-tors, fourth generation systems and advances onthermonuclear fusion are being made by nationswhich possess an intention to assure stable sourcesof energy production, and durable growth for the

    coming centuries. Every society, in order to pros-per, needs to increase its energy input/output with-out any absolute upper limit in order to survivedurably. That is not an ideological statement. It issimply the science of development and a factproven by the experience of human history.

    We, in the west, have to decide if we shall partakein this Renaissance and help it ignite faster or at-

    tempt to throw sand on the embers. Already somepromising projects are underway such as Bel-giums Myrrha (11) , which could eliminate theterm nuclear waste by transmuting the radioac-tive elements into new non radioactive material.Canadas CANDU reactor technology is alreadyfound in 6 other countries around the world. Can-ada was among the first to advance the science ofthe atom, and we need to save this legacy. Thenew isotope economy lies before us.

    Many onlookers who understand that the core of the Brit-ish Empires program for depopulation and the subversionof the nation state leans upon its control of the environ-mentalist movement, have found it somewhat paradoxicalthat British puppet Stephen Harper of Canada has madeheadlines this summer by passing sweeping reforms underthe C-38 omnibus bill, which has overturned decades ofenvironmentalist legislation designed to stop developmentin the name of wildlife conservation. This reform hasthus opened up new corridors for streamlined resourceextraction across the board. British sponsored environ-mental groups have been abandoned, and have been

    screaming all across Canada,

    but with very little resistancefrom the opposition NDP partywhich has up until now repre-sented the voice of Green inCanada. In fact, in the weeksbefore and after being sworn into the Queens Privy Councilon September 18 2012, NDPleader Thomas Mulcair hasuncharacteristically come outdefending both the Alberta oilsands, as well as the new En-bridge pipeline to the pacific.
