11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

According to Matko Metrovi, emeritus senior research fellow at the Institute of Economics of Zagreb, Croatia,[3]
LaRouche's economic policies, developed from originally Marxist beginnings, call for a program modeled on the
economic-recovery program of the Franklin Roosevelt administration, including fixed exchange rates, capital controls,
exchange controls, currency controls, and protectionist price and trade agreements among partner-nations.[4][5] LaRouche
also calls for a reorganization of debt world-wide, and a global plan for large-scale, continental infrastructure
projects.[5][6][7] He rejects free trade, deregulation, and globalization.[5][8]

Marxist roots
Lyndon LaRouche began his political career as a Trotskyist[9] and praised Marxism, He and the National Caucus of Labor
Committees abandoned this view in the 1970s. LaRouche no longer opposes capitalism as an economic system, and his
analysis of political events is no longer phrased in terms of class.[10]

According to Tim Wohlforth, during and after his break with Trotskyism, LaRouche's theory was influenced by what he
called his "Theory of Hegemony" derived from Vladimir Lenin's view of the role of intellectuals in being a vanguard
helping workers develop their consciousness and realize their leading role in society. He was influenced by Antonio
Gramsci's concept of a hegemon as an intellectual and cultural elite which directs social thought. LaRouche's theory saw
himself and his followers as becoming such a hegemonic force. He rejected Gramsci's notion of "organic intellectuals"
being developed by the working class itself. Rather, the working class would be led by elite intellectuals such as himself.[4]

LaRouche was influenced by his readings of Rosa Luxemburg's The Accumulation of Capital and Karl Marx's Capital
developing his own "theory of reindustrialization", saying that the West would attempt to industrialize the Third World,
particularly India, and attempt to solve the economic crisis both by developing new markets in the Third World and using
its cheap and surplus labor to increase profits and minimize costs (see neocolonialism.) To oppose this, LaRouche argued
for a "reindustrialization" of the United States with himself at the vanguard of the effort allowing him to personally resolve
the crisis of capitalism. Though his arguments have since been stripped of their quasi-Marxist language and citations, his
core theories have remained essentially the same since the late 1960s.[4]

Dialectical Economics: An Introduction to Marxist Political Economy


In Dialectical Economics: An Introduction to Marxist Political Economy, a book published in 1975 by D. C. Heath and
Company under the pen name Lyn Marcus, LaRouche tried to show that numerous Marxists ranging from the Monthly
Review group to Ernest Mandel, Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro and the "Soviet
economists" had failed to correctly understand and interpret Marx's writing. Marxists he admired apart from Marx
himself were Rosa Luxemburg and Yevgeni Preobrazhensky.

According to a review by Martin Bronfenbrenner in The Journal of Political Economy, about half of the book was devoted
to dialectical philosophy, "with a strong epistemological stress", with the other half devoted to discussions of economic
and general history, anthropology and sociology, and actual economics, including a surprisingly large helping of business
administration Bronfenbrenner noted that LaRouche seemed to have "more private-business experience than the great
majority of academic economists", including a familiarity with the way speculative overcapitalization, operating at the
borders of white-collar crime, creates "fictitious capitals" that later do not match their actual earning power. Like
Thorstein Veblen, LaRouche subscribed to an overcapitalization theory of economic depression.[11][12]

According to Bronfenbrenner, LaRouche viewed conventional economics as a "withered arm of philosophy", which had
taken a wrong turn towards reductionism under the influence of British empiricists such as Locke and Hume.[12]
LaRouche's definition of reductionism was as follows:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 2/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

The fundamental fallacy of ordinary understanding is the delusion that the universe is reducible to simple
substance, orthe more Hume-like viewthat the content of human knowledge is limited to simple-
substance-like, self-evident sense perceptions. This discredited outlookwhether it takes the naive
mechanistic [form] or the equivalent mechanistic outlook of empiricismis termed reductionism. All
varieties of reductionism are formally premised on the fallacious assumption of formal logic, that the
universe can be represented as discrete points interconnected by formal relations.[12]

From this it followed, Bronfenbrenner said, that LaRouche viewed bourgeois economists' concern with prices as
reductionism, versus the Marxian concern with values. The reductionist fallacy then lies in adjusting a value theory like
labor theory to fit in with price theory; in LaRouche's view, economists should work in the opposite direction.[12]

According to Bronfenbrenner, LaRouche viewed capitalist America as headed for a kind of fascism not much better than
that of the Nazis; but he noted that LaRouche's own vision of socialism, and the trade-off between necessity and freedom
in a centrally planned economy, seemed apt to result in the justification of a different kind of dictatorship:[12]

Judging from his controversial manner, [LaRouche] impresses at least one reader as a Me-for-Dictator type
to whom it would be dangerous to entrust the task of drawing any boundary between the domain of freedom
and that of necessity or order.[12]

LaRouche's campaign platforms


The campaign platforms of LaRouche and his followers have included these elements:

A return to a gold-based national and world monetary system, and fixed exchange rates;[13] and replacement of the
central bank system, including the U.S. Federal Reserve System, with a national bank;[14]
A war on drug trafficking and prosecution of banks involved in money laundering;[15][16]
An emphasis on large-scale basic economic infrastructure, including the building of a world land bridge of railroads
and a tunnel under the Bering Strait,[7] the building of nuclear power plants,[15][16] accelerating research on fusion
energy, the North American Water and Power Alliance,[17] and rebuilding or nationalizing the country's steel
industry;[18]
A crash program to build particle beam weapons and lasers, including support for elements of the Strategic Defense
Initiative (SDI);[19][20]
Opposition to the USSR and support for a military buildup to prepare for imminent war;[21][22]
Growth in food production and a farm debt moratorium;[23]
Low interest rates and opposition to the Gramm-Rudman balanced-budget law;[24]

Later orientation
According to China Youth Daily Online, LaRouche was once a Marxist, but now supports capitalism. He supports public
control of financial capital and low-interest loans.[25]

LaRouche said banks should not be bailed out, but be placed in receivership by the state. He said that a "firewall" should
prevent state aid from being diverted to speculative entities, which should be allowed to fail, and that such failures would
clean up the financial markets.[26]

LaRouche believes in the principles of the New Deal of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and favors state intervention in
the economy. LaRouche also said that he supported the approach of U.S. Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton, who
established a banking system geared to develop production.[26]

Italian Economics Minister Giulio Tremonti said that he had encountered LaRouche at a debate held in 2007 in Rome,
and that he appreciates LaRouche's writings. According to an article by Ivo Caizzi in Corriere della Sera, a group of Italian
Senators led by Oskar Peterlini asked the Berlusconi government to tackle the financial crisis using legislation developed
by LaRouche in 2007. The legislation proposed that public money should save only the commercial infrastructure required
for the financing of productive enterprises.[26]

The "Triple Curve", or "typical collapse function", is an economic model developed by LaRouche which tries to illustrate
the growth of financial aggregates at the expense of the physical economy and how this leads to an inevitably collapsing
bubble economy. According to the China Youth Daily Online interview, LaRouche's main point is that the real economy
(production) is dropping while the nominal economy (money and financial instruments) is going up. As the nominal
economy greatly overreaches the real economy, an unavoidable economic crisis ensues.[27]

Since 2000, the LaRouche movement has:

Called for a moratorium on Third World debt.[6][28]


Opposed deregulation.[8] According to LaRouche's publications, "LaRouche has consistently called for reregulation of
utilities, transportation, health care (under the "Hill-Burton" standard), the financial (especially the speculative
markets) and other sectors..."[29] They support the renewal of GlassSteagall Act regulations on banks.[17]
In 2007, LaRouche proposed a "Homeowners and Bank Protection Act". This called for the establishment of a federal
agency that would "place federal- and state-chartered banks under protection, freeze all existing home mortgages for
a period of time, adjust mortgage values to fair prices, restructure existing mortgages at appropriate interest rates,
and write off speculative debt obligations of mortgage-backed securities". The bill envisioned a foreclosure
moratorium, allowing homeowners to make the equivalent of rental payments for an interim period, and an end to
bank bail-outs, forcing banks to reorganize under bankruptcy laws. A LaRouche spokesman said that bank bail-outs
"reward corrupt swindlers with taxpayer money". The proposal attracted support from Democrats at city council and
state legislature level. Pennsylvania Democrat Paul Kanjorski opposed the bill, stating it would involve government
seizure of "every American bank". Mike Colpitts of Housing Predictor stated that LaRouche's economic forecasts had
been correct, and that he might have received more mainstream credibility had it not been for his controversial
history.[30]

Neoplatonism
LaRouche's philosophy references an old dispute between Plato and Aristotle. Aristotle believed in knowledge through
empirical observation and experience. Plato believed in The Forms. According to LaRouche, history has always been a
battle between Platonistsrationalists, idealists and utopians who believe in absolute truth and the primacy of ideasand
Aristoteliansrelativists who rely on empirical data and sensory perception. Platonists in LaRouche's worldview include
figures such as Beethoven, Mozart, Shakespeare, Leonardo da Vinci, and Leibniz. LaRouche states that many of the
world's ills are due to the fact that Aristotelianism, as embraced by British philosophers like Locke, Hume, Hobbes,
Bentham and represented by "oligarchs", foremost among them wealthy British families, has dominated, leading to a
culture that favors the empirical over the metaphysical, embraces moral relativism, and seeks to keep the general
population uninformed. LaRouche frames this struggle as an ancient one, and sees himself and his movement in the
tradition of the philosopher-kings in Plato's Republic.[32]

LaRouche and his followers use Neoplatonism as the basis for an economic model that posits "the absolute necessity of
progress". Economies evolve in stages as humanity devises new technologies, stages that LaRouche compares to the
hierarchical spheres in Kepler's model of the solar system based on the Platonic solids. The purpose of science, technology
and business must be to assist this progress, enabling the Earth to support an ever-growing humanity. Human life is the
supreme value in LaRouche's world view; environmentalism and population control are seen as retrogressive steps,
promoting a return to the Dark Ages. Rather than curtailing progress, because of dwindling resources, LaRouche
advocates using nuclear technology to make more energy available to humanity, freeing humanity to enjoy music and
art.[33]

In LaRouche's view, the people


opposing this vision are part of the
Aristotelian conspiracy. They may not
necessarily be in contact with one
another: "From their standpoint, [the
conspirators] are proceeding by
instinct," LaRouche has said. "If you're
asking how their policy is developed
if there is an inside group sitting down
and making plansno, it doesn't work
that way ... History doesn't function
quite that consciously."[34] Left and
right are false distinctions for Kepler's Platonic solid model of the

a fresco by Raphael. Aristotle relationships with groups as disparate

observation. Plato gestures to
George Johnson, in Architects of Fear (1983), has described LaRouche's
the heavens, representing his
belief in The Forms.[31] Neoplatonist conspiracy theory as a "distortion of a real philosophical
distinction".[31] He has written that the resulting philosophy can be applied to any
number of situations in a manner that becomes plausible once one accepts its
basic premise. In his view, it forms the foundation of a conspiracy theory that rationalizes paranoid thinking, an opinion
echoed by John George and Laird Wilcox in American Extremists: Militias, Supremacists, Klansmen, Communists &
Others (1996).[35] Writing in The New York Times in 1989, Johnson described LaRouche as "a kind of Allan Bloom gone
mad" who seems to "believe the nonsense he spouts", a view of the world in which Aristotelians use "sex, drugs and rock-
and-roll" and "environmentalism and quantum theory" to support wealthy oligarchs and create a civilization-destroying
"new Dark Age".[36]

Conspiracies
LaRouche wrote that conspiracy was natural in human beings. In 1998, he responded to critics of his conspiracism, such
as Daniel Pipes and said that Pipes wrongly believed that all reports of conspiracy are axiomatically false.

LaRouche's critics, particularly Dennis King and Chip Berlet, characterize his current orientation as being a conspiracist
worldview. They say the Marxist concept of the ruling class was converted by LaRouche into a conspiracy theory, in which
world capitalism was controlled by a cabal including the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers, Henry Kissinger, and the Council
on Foreign Relations.[37][38][39] Daniel Pipes said that LaRouche personalizes his conspiracy theories, and associates "all of
his adversaries with the forces of darkness."[40]

EIR in 2007 ran an "investigative report" titled Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy At It Again, With a New Twist. It says:

Perhaps the only name that sends the VRWC gang more into orbit than either Bill and Hillary
Clinton, is the name Lyndon LaRouche. The very same apparatus that waged a billion-dollar
slander campaign against the President and the First Lady throughout much of the mid- and late

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 5/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

1990s, has an even longer track record of venomous slander and frame-up campaigns against
LaRouche and his political movement.
Of course, the reality is that it was the Bush-Cheney campaign, backed by the Scalia Supreme
Court, that actually stole the 2000 election in Florida.[41]

In 2001, LaRouche said that rogue elements within the American military took part in, or planned, the September 11, 2001
attacks as part of a coup d'tat.[42][43]

The "British" conspiracy


LaRouche is known for alleging conspiracies by the British. LaRouche has said that the dominant imperialist strategic
force acting on the planet today is not the United States, but the "Anglo-Dutch liberal system" of the British Empire, which
he asserts is an oligarchic financial consortium like that of medieval Venice, more like a "financial slime-mold" than a
nation.[44] According to this theory, London financial circles protect themselves from competition by using techniques of
"controlled conflict" first developed in Venice, and LaRouche attributes many wars in recent memory to this alleged
activity by the British.[45]

According to Chip Berlet and Dennis King, LaRouche has always been stridently anti-British and has included Queen
Elizabeth II, the British Royal Family, and others, in his list of conspirators who are said to control the world's political
economy and the international drug trade.[37][38][46] According to Jonathan Vankin and John Whalen, LaRouche is the
"most illustrious" Anglophobe.[47] These views are reflected in three books authored by members of his organization:

Dope, Inc. by David P. Goldman, Konstandinos Kalimtgis and Jeffrey Steinberg, 1978 (ISBN 0-918388-08-2): this
book discusses the history of narcotics trafficking, beginning with the Opium War, and alleges that British interests
have continued to dominate the field up to the modern era, for example through money laundering in British offshore
banking colonies. The heart of the conspiracy, according to LaRouche, is the financial elite of the City of London.
The Civil War and the American System by Allen Salisbury, 1979 (ISBN 0918388023): alleges that British interests
encouraged and financed the secession movement and supported the Confederacy against the Union in the
American Civil War, because they preferred North America to be a primitive agrarian economy that they could
dominate through policies of free trade.
The New Dark Ages Conspiracy by Carol White, 1980 (ISBN 0-933488-05-X): alleges that a group of British
intellectuals led by Bertrand Russell and H.G. Wells attempted to control scientific progress in order to keep the world
backward and more easily managed by Imperialism. In this conspiracy theory, Wells wished Science to be controlled
by some kind of priesthood and kept from the common man, while Russell wished to stifle it altogether by restricting it
to a closed system of formal logic, that would prohibit the introduction of new ideas. This conspiracy also involved the
promotion of the counterculture.

The Queen and Prince Philip


According to book critic and columnist Scott McLemee:[48]

The emergence of the [LaRouche Youth Movement] is all the more surprising, given that LaRouche himself
has long since become the walking punchline to a very strange joke. He is known for some of the most
baroque conspiracy theories ever put into circulation. Members of the LYM now deny that he ever accused
the Queen of England of drug traffickingthough in fact, he did exactly that throughout the 1980s. At the
time, he won admirers on the extreme right wing by denouncing Henry Kissinger as an agent of the KGB and
calling for AIDS patients to be quarantined.[49]

In 2004, in a segment about the death of Jeremiah Duggan during a LaRouche Youth Movement cadre school in
Wiesbaden in March 2003, BBC's Newsnight re-broadcast a BBC interview with LaRouche from 1980, in which he said
about the Queen: "Of course she's pushing drugs. That is, in the sense of a responsibility, the head of a gang that is

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 6/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

pushing drugs, she knows it's happening and she isn't stopping it."[50]

A 1998 editorial in LaRouche's Executive Intelligence Review cited a statement by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in The Daily
Telegraph that described LaRouche as the "publisher of a book that accuses the Queen of being the world's foremost drug
dealer", characterising it as a "bit of black propaganda" and a "reference to the book Dope, Inc., [...] which laid bare the
role of the London-centered offshore financial institutions and allied intelligence services, in running the global drug
trade, from the time of Britain's nineteenth-century Opium Wars against China."[51] Evans-Pritchard further said
LaRouche had claimed that the Queen was involved in the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales.[52] The Executive
Intelligence Review responded that Evans-Pritchard's article was "pure fiction", written in response to Executive
Intelligence Review reporter Jeff Steinberg's appearance on a British ITV television program about the Diana controversy.
In a brief part of an interview with Steinberg broadcast the following day by Channel 4's Dispatches, Steinberg said that
while there was "no smoking gun proof" that Prince Philip asked British intelligence to assassinate Diana, he could not
"rule out" the possibility.[53]

Leo Strauss
LaRouche's initial essay on the influence of Leo Strauss within Neoconservatism and the George W. Bush administration,
"The Essential Fraud of Leo Strauss", was written in March 2003.[54] In the same year, a series of pamphlets entitled
"Children of Satan" later consolidated into a book, began appearing. LaRouche charges that there was a conspiracy
dominated by what are called Straussians (followers of Leo Strauss) within the Bush administration, and that the
dominant personality in this conspiracy was Dick Cheney (whose photo appears on the cover of the book.) LaRouche
claimed that these conspirators deliberately misled the American public and the US Congress in order to initiate the 2003
invasion of Iraq. He writes that the Straussians created the Office of Special Plans in order to fabricate intelligence and
bypass traditional intelligence channels.[55] According to LaRouche movement member Tony Papert, an important part of
this theory is the LaRouchian analysis of the ideas of Leo Strauss which borrows heavily from the writings of Shadia
Drury.[56]

Robert Bartley of the Wall Street Journal has condemned LaRouche's views on this subject, and says that it may have
influenced other commentators who subsequently published a similar analysis, such as Seymour Hersh and James Atlas of
the New York Times. Bartley quotes the assertion by LaRouche movement member Jeffrey Steinberg that a "cabal of
Strauss disciples, along with an equally small circle of allied neo-conservative and Likudnik fellow-travelers" have plotted
a "not-so-silent coup" using the September 11 attacks as a justification, similar to the Reichstag fire of 1933. Bartley
complains that Strauss's "words are twisted from their meaning" in order to justify the theory.[57] Canadian journalist Jeet
Heer writes that LaRouche's followers "argue that Strauss is the evil genius behind the Republican Party".[58] Political
science scholars Catherine and Michael Zuckert say that LaRouche's writings were the first to connect Strauss to
Neoconservatism and the Bush foreign policy and initiated the discussion of the topic, though the views about it changed
as it percolated through to international journalism.[54]

Bush family
The Executive Intelligence Review (EIR) published an article by Anton Chaitkin alleging that Prescott Bush "had
persevered with his comrades in the old Auschwitz gang" and that "the smoldering bodies in Auschwitz followed logically
upon the race propaganda festival which had been staged by the Harriman-Bush enterprise a decade earlier in New
York."[59]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 7/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

EIR published a book, George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography, by Webster Griffin Tarpley and Anton Chaitkin, in
1992, which said that "virtually all the Nazi trade with the United States was under the supervision of the Harriman-Bush
interests", and that "Bushs family had already played a central role in financing and arming Adolf Hitler for his takeover
of Germany; in financing and managing the buildup of Nazi war industries for the conquest of Europe and war against the
U.S.A.; and in the development of Nazi genocide theories and racial propaganda, with their well-known results. [...] The
Presidents family fortune was largely a result of the Hitler project. The powerful Anglo-American family associations,
which later boosted him into the Central Intelligence Agency and up to the White House, were his fathers partners in the
Hitler project."[60][61]

In 2006, The Larouche Political Action Committee and EIR published Larouche to Rumsfeld: FDR Defeated the Nazis,
While Bushes Collaborated.

LaRouche blasted Rumsfeld, reminding him that it was President Franklin Delano Roosevelt
who defeated Hitler and the Nazis, while many American right-wingers of the 1930s and 40s
were promoters of Mussolini, Hjalmar Schacht, and Hermann Goering. And among the extreme
American Fascists and Nazis of the period, there were some who openly sympathized with
Adolf Hitler, by intention or practice.
Let us not ignore the role of George Shultz, the man behind the Bush Presidency, the power of
Vice President Cheney, and the promotion of Don Rumsfeld as Secretary of Defense. Even
leading Republicans know Shultz to be an outright totalitarian, who has used the Bush
Presidency to impose a Pinochet Model of top-down dictatorship and radical free-market
economics upon the United States. Shultzs promotion of the privatization of war, on the SS
model, has been backed, LaRouche noted, by Felix Rohatyn.[62]

PANIC proposal and AIDS


In 1974, an organisation affiliated to LaRouche predicted that there would be pandemics in Africa.[63][64] When AIDS was
first recognized as a medical phenomenon in the early 1980s, LaRouche activists were convinced that this was the
pandemic about which the task force had warned. LaRouche and his followers stated that HIV, the AIDS virus, could be
transmitted by casual contact,[65][66] citing as supporting evidence the high incidence of the disease in Africa, the
Caribbean and southern Florida.[67] LaRouche said that the transmission by insect bite was "thoroughly established".[68]
John Grauerholz, medical director of the BHTF, told reporters that the Soviet Union may have started the epidemic and
that U.S. health officials aided the Soviets by not doing more to stop AIDS.[69]

AIDS became a key plank in LaRouche's platform.[70] His slogan was "Spread Panic, not AIDS!"[71] LaRouche's followers
created "Prevent AIDS Now Initiative Committee" (PANIC), which sponsored California Proposition 64, the "LaRouche
Initiative", in 1986. Mel Klenetsky, co-director of political operations for the Larouche-affiliated National Democratic
Policy Committee and LaRouche's campaign director,[72][73] said that there must be universal testing and mandatory
quarantining of HIV carriers. "Twenty to 30 million out of 100 million people in central Africa have AIDS," Klenetsky said.
"It is spreading because of impoverished economic conditions, and that is a direct result of IMF policies that have
destroyed people's means of resisting the disease." Klenetsky said that LaRouche believed that not only drug users and
homosexuals are vulnerable to the disease.[74]

The measure was met with strong opposition and was defeated. A second AIDS initiative qualified for the ballot in 1988,
but the measure failed by a larger margin. In response to a survey which predicted that 72% of voters would oppose the
measure, a spokesman called the poll "an obvious fraud", saying that pollsters deliberately worded questions to prejudice
respondents against the initiative. He additionally said that the poll was part of a "big lie...witch hunt" orchestrated by
Armand Hammer and Elizabeth Taylor.[75]

11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

As early as 1985 NDPC members ran for local school boards on a platform of keeping infected students out of school.[76] In
1986 LaRouche supporters traveled from Seattle, Washington to Lebanon, Oregon to urge the school board there to
reverse a policy that would allow children with AIDS to enroll.[77] In 1987 followers tried to organize a boycott of an
elementary school in the Chicago neighborhood of Pilsen, sending a van with loudspeakers through the district.[78] They
disrupted an informational meeting and according to press accounts told parents, "The blood of your own children will be
on your hands if you allow this child with AIDS in your school," or shouted at opponents, "He has AIDS! He has AIDS!"[79]

LaRouche purchased a national TV spot during his 1988 presidential campaign, in which he summarized his views and
proposals with respect to the AIDS epidemic. He said most statements about how AIDS is spread were an "outright lie"
and that talk of safe sex was just propaganda put out by the government to avoid spending the money required to address
the crisis.[80]

LaRouche-affiliated candidates used AIDS as an issue as late as 1994.[81][82]

Opponents characterized it as an anti-gay measure that would force HIV-positive individuals out of their jobs and into
quarantine,[83] or create "concentration camps for AIDS patients."[84] According to newspaper reports, the LaRouche
newspaper New Solidarity said the initiative was opposed by Communist gangs composed of the "lower sexual classes"
and he warned of the recruitment of millions of Americans into the ranks of "AIDS-riddled homosexuality".[65]

Environment and energy


Metrovi says LaRouche follows Vladimir Vernadsky in seeing the human mind as a force transforming the biosphere
into a higher form, the nosphere.[5] LaRouche favors a highly industrialized civilization reaching for innovation and
interplanetary colonization. The movement says that the theory of man-caused global warming prevents the development
of emerging economies.[85] It also says the top level organizations in the command structure of the environmental
movement include the World Wildlife Fund, headed by Prince Philip, the Aspen Institute, and the Club of Rome.

According to Chip Berlet, "Pro-LaRouche publications have been at the forefront of denying the reality of global
warming".[86] The LaRouche movement's 21st Century Science & Technology magazine has been called "anti-
environmental" by Mother Jones magazine.[87] LaRouche publications denounced nuclear winter, the theory that nuclear
war could lead to global cooling, as early as 1983, calling it a "fraud" and a "hoax" popularized by the Soviet Union to
weaken the U.S.[88] Some of the movement's ideas were later adopted by the Wise use movement.[89][90][91] The LaRouche
movement opposed ratification of the Convention on Biological Diversity, which failed in the U.S. Senate in 1994.[92][93]

Nuclear power
LaRouche says that nuclear and especially fusion power is necessary for the continued growth of civilization. He founded
the Fusion Energy Foundation, which published the journal Fusion (later renamed to 21st Century Science & Technology).
In his 1980 presidential platform, LaRouche promised 2500 nuclear power plants if elected.[92] In 2007 LaRouche
reiterated his position, saying that only the "massive investment" in fission and fusion technology could prevent the
"collapse of human existence on this planet".[94]

The movement has targeted opponents of nuclear power. Members of the Clamshell Alliance, non-violent protesters at the
Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant in New Hampshire, were called "terrorists" in 1977. Representatives of LaRouche's U.S.
Labor Party gave incriminating information to law enforcement about them,[95] which the FBI later determined had been
fabricated, according to King.[96] During a large demonstration against the plant in 1989, an airplane carried a banner
overhead which read, "Free LaRouche! Kill Satan Open Seabrook".[97]

The movement blames cabalists, including then-congressman Dick Cheney, for inciting anti-nuclear sentiments during the
late 1970s.[98] LaRouche sources described the incident at the nuclear power plant at Three Mile Island as sabotage, since
they considered the control systems too sophisticated to fail by accident.[99]

DDT
21st Century Science & Technology's managing editor, Marjorie Mazel Hecht, called the campaign against DDT the
"'mother' of all the environmental hoaxes".[100] Other articles compared anti-DDT campaigner Rachel Carson to Nazi
propagandist Joseph Goebbels.[100] 21st century, which is produced by LaRouche supporters,[101] has published papers by
entomologist J. Gordon Edwards, including one that urged the return of the insecticide DDT because he said it has "saved
more millions of lives than any other man-made chemical".[102] Rogelio (Roger) Maduro, an associate editor, wrote that
the ban on DDT was part of a plan to reduce the population and had caused the deaths of 40 million people via a
resurgence of malaria.[103]

Ozone hole
LaRouche was part of what was called the "ozone backlash".[104][105][106] 21st Century Science & Technology, which
conducted what has been called "a very effective campaign of misinformation on the issue of ozone depletion",[107]
published The Holes in the Ozone Scare in 1992.[108][109] The book, by LaRouche followers Rogelio Maduro and Ralf
Schauerhammer, said that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were not destroying the ozone layer and opposed the proposal to
ban them. It asserted that most chlorine in the atmosphere came from oceans, volcanoes, or other natural sources, and
that CFCs were too heavy to reach the ozone layer.[101][106][107] It went on to say that even if the ozone layer were depleted
there would not be any harmful effects from additional ultraviolet radiation.[110] It predicted that a ban would result in an
additional 20 to 40 million deaths due to food spoilage.[111] Lewis DuPont Smith, an heir to the DuPont Chemical fortune
and a LaRouche follower, told Maduro that the DuPont Company had schemed to ban CFCs, which they had invented but
which had become generic, in order to replace them with more expensive proprietary compounds.[112][113] It has been
called "probably the best known and most widely quoted text aimed at debunking the concept of ozone depletion".[114] Its
assertions were repeated by Dixie Lee Ray in her 1993 book Environmental Overkill, by Rush Limbaugh, and by Ronald
Bailey.[106][114] Some atmospheric scientists have said that it is based on poor research.[106]

At a 1994 shareholder's meeting, Smith called on Dupont to continue producing CFCs, saying there was no evidence of
their harmfulness and that "This is nothing less than genocide".[115] By 1995 LaRouche was noted as calling the ozone hole
a "myth".[116] Maduro's writings were the basis for the Arizona legislature's passage of a 1995 bill to allow the production
of CFCs in the state despite federal and international prohibitions.[117]

Global warming
The "Greenhouse effect" hoax: a world federalist plot, another book by Maduro, says that the theory of anthropogenic
global warming (AGW) is a plot by the British royal family and communists to undermine the U.S.[118][119] It was cited by
science writer David Bellamy.[120]

LaRouche followers have promoted the documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle and attacked Al Gore's An
Inconvenient Truth, infiltrating showings to promote their viewpoints.[121][122] They have stood on street corners
proclaiming the falsity of global warming,[123] and have protested Gore's appearances.[124]

21st Century Science & Technology has published papers by climate change contrarians including Zbigniew Jaworowski,
Nils-Axel Mrner, Hugh Ellsaesser, and Robert E. Stevenson. A 2007 article by LaRouche science advisor Laurence Hecht
suggested that the varying levels of cosmic rays, whose change is dependent on Earth's motion through the galaxy, has a
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 10/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

larger effect on the climate than local factors such as greenhouse gases or solar
and orbital cycles.[125] Christopher Monckton was praised as the leading
spokesman of the "global warming swindle" in the introduction to an Executive
Intelligence Review interview with him in 2009, but he was also considered to
have a relatively limited view of the cabal behind the hoax.[126] A movement
newsletter says that environmental groups seek to "force... CO2 emissions
agreements down the throats of governments as a way of finishing off the
nation-state system" on behalf of synarchist networks.[98]

Music and science


LaRouche is fascinated by musical theory, as well as mathematics and physics,
and this fascination also translates into his teachings; his followers for example
have attempted to link the musical scale to his Neoplatonist model of economic
evolution, and study singing and geometry. A common teaser used by the A 2007 LaRouche PAC poster
movement is to ask people whether they know how to "double the square" featuring a drawing of a naked Al
Gore
draw a square whose area is twice the size of an existing square. A motto of
LaRouche's European Workers' Party is "Think like Beethoven"; movement
offices typically include a piano and posters of German composers, and members are known for their choral singing at
protest events, using satirical lyrics tailored to their targets.[127]

LaRouche and his wife have an interest in classical music up to the period of Brahms. LaRouche abhors contemporary
music; holding that rock music is subversive, and was deliberately created to be so by British intelligence interests.[128]
LaRouche is quoted as saying that jazz music was "foisted on black Americans by the same oligarchy which had run the
U.S. slave trade".[129] This dislike for modern music also extends to more recent classical music; LaRouche movement
members have protested at performances of Richard Wagner's operas, denouncing Wagner as an anti-Semite who found
favor with the Nazis, and called a conductor "satanic" because he played contemporary music.[130]

In 1988 LaRouche advocated that classical orchestras should return to the "Verdi pitch," a pitch that Verdi had enshrined
in Italian legislation in 1884. Orchestras' pitches have risen since the 18th century, because a higher pitch produces a more
brilliant orchestral sound, while imposing an additional strain on singers' voices. Giuseppe Verdi succeeded in 1884 in
having legislation passed in Italy that fixed the reference pitch for A at 432 Hz, but in 1938, the international standard was
raised to 440 Hz, with some major orchestras tuning as high as 450 Hz in recent times. LaRouche spoke about the
resulting strain on singers' voices in his 1988 presidential campaign videos. By 1989 the initiative had attracted support
from more than 300 opera stars, including Joan Sutherland, Plcido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti and Montserrat Caball.
While many of these singers may or may not have been aware of LaRouche's politics, Renata Tebaldi and Piero Cappuccilli
ran for the European Parliament on LaRouche's "Patriots for Italy" platform and appeared as featured speakers at Schiller
Institute conferences on the topic. The discussions led to debates in the Italian parliament about reinstating Verdi's
legislation. LaRouche himself gave an interview to National Public Radio on the initiative in 1989 from prison. Stefan
Zucker, the editor of Opera Fanatic (and, incidentally, the "world's highest tenor") opposed the initiative on the grounds
that it would result in the establishment of a "pitch police," arguing that the way it presented the history of the tuning
pitch was a "simplification", and that LaRouche was using the issue to gain credibility. The initiative in the Italian Senate
failed to result in corresponding legislation being passed.[131]

LaRouche considers pitch important, believing that the Verdi pitch has a direct relation to the structure of the universe,
and that bel canto singing at the correct pitch maximizes the music's impact on both singers and listeners.[132]

Opposition to Obama's health reforms


LaRouche's organization opposed the Obama administration's health-care reform proposals. Posters of Obama wearing a
Hitler-style mustache appeared at a LaRouche movement rally.[133]

As town-hall meetings on this issue during the summer of 2009 began to attract very large and angry crowds, the
comparison of Obama to Hitler began to show up on many signs and banners. The Atlantic wrote that LaRouche
supporters "patented the Obama-is-Nazi theme".[134]

Sexuality and politics


In 1973, LaRouche wrote an article called "Beyond Psychoanalysis". He theorized that each culture had characteristic flaws
that resulted in blocks to effective political organizing. LaRouche and his colleagues conducted studies of different
"national ideologies," including German, French, Italian, English, Latin American, Greek, and Swedish.[135]

In an article, "The Sexual Impotency of the Puerto Rican Socialist Party", LaRouche criticised Machismo. Regarding the
role of women, he adds, "The task of real women's liberation is to generally strengthen women's self-consciousness and
their power and opportunities to act upon self-consciousness."[136]

Minority politics
Critics say the movement is antisemitic, conspiracist, and anti-LGBT, and that its political and economic proposals are a
cover for its actual beliefs.[137][138][139]

Homosexuality
During the 1980s, LaRouche and his supporters made comments that were seen as anti-gay.[70][140] A LaRouche-affiliated
newspaper wrote that demonstrators against the LaRouche-sponsored AIDS initiative in California were from the "lower
sexual classes."[141]

Judaism and Zionism


British journalist Roger Boyes wrote, "Anti-Semitism is at the core of LaRouche's conspiracy theories, which he adapts to
modern events -most recently the war in Iraq."[142] Daniel Levitas wrote in 1995 that LaRouche "has been consistent in
creating and elaborating conspiracy theories that contain a strong dose of antisemitism".[143] As an example of LaRouche's
alleged antisemitism, Dennis King cited LaRouche's statement (under the pen name L. Marcus) in The Case of Ludwig
Feuerbach (1973), "Jewish culture ... is merely the residue left to the Jewish home after everything saleable has been
marketed to the Goyim."[144]

The charge of antisemitism in the LaRouche network resurfaced in the media in 2004 in accounts of the death of a young
Jewish student, Jeremiah Duggan, who had been attending a Schiller Institute event in Germany. British press reports
described LaRouche as "the American leader of a sect with a fascist and antisemitic ideology",[145] and said he was
"infamous for his anti-Semitic views and claims the world's governments have been taken over by a Zionist
conspiracy."[146]

LaRouche has long denied that his movement is antisemitic.[147] In 2006, LaRouche said "Religious and racial hatred,
such as anti-Semitism [is] the most evil expression of criminality to be seen on the planet today".[148] Debra Freeman, a
spokesperson for LaRouche, told a newspaper in 2010 that, "Hitler was a lunatic, but his policies were based principally on

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche_and_the_LaRouche_movement 12/23
11/28/2017 Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement - Wikipedia

economic policy and staying in power. We mourn the loss of six million Jews and countless others."[149]

LaRouche's critics have said he is a "disguised anti-Semite", in that he takes the classical antisemitic conspiracy theory and
substitutes the word "Zionist" for the word "Jew", and ascribes the classical antisemitic caricature of the "scheming Jew"
to particular Jewish individuals and groups of Jews, rather than to the Jews as a whole.[37][38][39][150] "Modern Zionism
was not created by Jews, but was a project developed chiefly by Oxford University", LaRouche says. He says "Zionism is
not Judaism."[151] In 1978, the same year LaRouche's article cited The Protocols, the LaRouche group published Dope,
Inc.: Britains Opium War against the U.S., which cited the Protocols and defended its authenticity, likening the "Elders
of Zion" to the Rothschild banking family, the British Royal family, and the Italian Mafia, and the Israeli Mossad, General
Pike, and the B'nai B'rith. (Dope, Inc.) Later editions left out cites to The Protocols. This is the genesis of the claim that
LaRouche has said Queen Elizabeth runs drugs. When asked by an NBC reporter in 1984 about the Queen and drug
running, LaRouche replied, "Of course she's pushing drugs...that is in a sense of responsibility: the head of a gang that is
pushing drugs; she knows it's happening and she isn't stopping it."[152]

Chip Berlet argues that LaRouche indirectly expresses antisemitism through the use of "coded language" and by attacking
neoconservatives.[150] Dennis King maintains, for example, that words like "British" were really code words for 'Jew.'"[153]
Other critics of LaRouche believe that LaRouches anti-British statements disparage the British system rather than the
Jewish religion. Laird Wilcox and John George write that "Dennis King goes to considerable lengths to paint LaRouche as
a neo-Nazi, even engaging in a little conspiracy-mongering of his own."

Race
Manning Marable of Columbia University wrote in a 1997 column that LaRouche had a "long attempted to destroy and
manipulate black leaders, political organizations and the black church".[154][155]

During LaRouche's slander suit against NBC in 1984, Roy Innis, leader of the Congress of Racial Equality, took the stand
for LaRouche as a character witness, stating under oath that LaRouche's views on racism were "consistent with his own."
Asked whether he had seen any indication of racism in LaRouche's associates, he replied that he had not.[156] Innis
received criticism from many blacks for having testified on LaRouche's behalf.[157][158]

The African American civil-rights leader James Bevel was LaRouche's running mate in the 1992 presidential election, and
in the mid-1990s, the LaRouche movement entered into an alliance with Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam.[159] Another
LaRouche movement member with a distinguished civil-rights history is Amelia Boynton Robinson, who is vice-president
of the Schiller Institute; she has described the movement as following in the footsteps of Martin Luther King: "Mr. And
Mrs. LaRouche built a movement, taking up where Dr. King had left off. They realized ... there must be an universal image
of mankind, which transcends all racial differences and barriers."[160]

Accusations of fascism against the LaRouche movement


LaRouche's movement has frequently been accused of being fascist. Those making the accusation include Democratic
National Committee chairman Paul G. Kirk,[161] a local Texas Democratic district committee.,[162] and Democratic activist
Bob Hattoy[163]

Dennis King, a former Marxist-Leninist and member of the Progressive Labor Party in the 1960s and early 1970s, used
this thesis in the title of his book-length study of LaRouche and his movement, Lyndon LaRouche and the New American
Fascism (1989). Operation Mop-Up, which is said to have consisted of violent physical attacks on left-wing meetings, is
used as a basis for such accusations.[164]

Andrei Fursov, a Russian historian and academician at the International


Academy of Sciences in Innsbruck, Austria, was interviewed in 2012 by the
Russian think tank and web portal Terra America and asked to comment on
the characterizations of LaRouche in Western media. He replied that
intellectuals who have called LaRouche a fascist do not deserve to be called
intellectuals, and that the charge has no basis in any real scientific analysis of
politics. According to Fursov, it comes from the fact that LaRouche criticizes
the supposedly "democratic" but actually "liberal totalitarian" system of the LaRouche supporter sign portraying
West. Fursov said that in Russia not so many people know of LaRouche, Barack Obama with a "Hitler
although, of course, the important thing is not the quantity, but the quality.[165] mustache"

George Johnson, in a review of King's book in The New York Times, said that
King's presentation of LaRouche as a "would-be Fhrer" was "too neat", and that it failed to take into account that several
members of LaRouche's inner circle were themselves Jewish, while acknowledging that LaRouche's "conspiracy theory is
designed to appeal to anti-Semitic right-wingers as well as to Black Muslims and nuclear engineers".[166] In his 1983 book,
Architects of Fear, Johnson described LaRouche's dalliances with radical groups on the right as "a marriage of
convenience", and less than sincere; as evidence he cited a 1975 party memo that spoke of uniting with the right simply for
the purpose of overthrowing the established order: "Once we have won this battle, eliminating our right-wing opposition
will be comparatively easy." At the same time, Johnson says, LaRouche also sought contact with the Soviet Union and the
Baath Party in Iraq; failing to recruit either the Soviets or right-wingers to his cause, LaRouche attempted to adopt a more
mainstream image in the 1980s.[167] Laird Wilcox and John George similarly stated that King had gone too far in trying "to
paint LaRouche as a neo-Nazi" and that LaRouche's most severe critics, like King and Berlet, came from extreme leftist
backgrounds themselves.[168]

unavoidability of the current US economic crisis are: the production of real goods is constantly dropping, but the credit
supplies are steadily increasing, the real and nominal economies form two curves with one going up, and another one
going down, which creates a great contrast. When the nominal economy greatly overreaches the real economy, the
world will fall into an economic crisis.
