The two extraordinary articles you are about to read in this special New Citizen Supplement were first published in the August 26, 2005 issue of Executive Intelligence Review EIR), the weekly magazine founded by U.S. statesman and economist Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. Circulated in pre-publication copies, they already had a bombshell impact among U.S. institutions, including the military and intelligence communities and the U.S. Congress, and have been featured on dozens of radio shows and websites in the U.S. and abroad.

The background to Cheney’s plans for a new 9/11 and nuclear war against Iran was detailed in the August, 2005 New Citizen Extra, to which this is a supplement. Suffice it to say that the world is on the edge of an explosion of a speculative bubble of hundreds of trillions of dollars—the greatest financial crash in history. In these circumstances—merely typified by the impending bankruptcy of General Motors, the world’s largest corporation—a desperate financial oligarchy would rather unleash nuclear war and a New Dark Age, than lose dictatorial control over their disintegrating "globalist" system.

First, we must stop Cheney’s hideous plot, in which you can play an important role, as specified in the p. 4 box, "What You Can Do!" Then, the institutional forces in the U.S. Congress and elsewhere, rallied by LaRouche, can move to impeach Cheney and his pathetic puppet, Bush. As that begins to happen, we can move toward a durable solution to this mess, by replacing the Money Power’s failed system of globalisation with LaRouche’s idea of a return to sovereign nation-states in a fixed exchange rate, tariff-protected, national banking-centred New Bretton Woods system. Such veterans of "old Labor" as Commonwealth bank founder King O’Malley, Jack Lang, Frank Anstey, John Curtin, Ben Chifley and Jim Cairns would have readily understood.
