I.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Thomas Milan Konda’s Conspiracy of Conspiracies <\/a>speaks of Lyndon Larouche in the present tense.\u00c2\u00a0 Which makes sense, of course — its proofs would have come in before his death.\u00c2\u00a0 But he also speaks of Webster Tarpley in the Larouche movement in the present tense.\u00c2\u00a0 In the distant past, I entertained the idea of him as a “covert” Larouchie, but I’ve by now wised up.\u00c2\u00a0 The best we can suggest is that he represents Larouche’s progeny, and thus can add him in currently as a Larouchie contributor to conspiracy theory mongering.<\/p>\n

Neither agreeing with him or Mr. Berlet on this point…<\/p>\n

Chip Berlet […] sees Larouche’s ideas as primary anti-semitic, but (as with Icke) this is hard to be sure of.\u00c2\u00a0 There may be a strain of antisemitism in the work of Larouche and some of his acolytes, but Larouche’s primary concern has always been the battle between the followers of Plato and those of Aristotle.<\/em><\/p>\n

A Manichean dichotomy which conveniently allows for a shuffling of some names back and forth, at times arbitrarily, and where on the “bad” side we happen to have a hell of a lot of Jewish surnames.\u00c2\u00a0 Though, it struck me in the oughts that the\u00c2\u00a0ideas were “primarily” fodder for desperately searching college aged groups disgruntled by points of our culture — see here for a 2007 study<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0example.\u00c2\u00a0 In the past decade, the ideas were “primarily” money fodder from right wing sources.\u00c2\u00a0 Currently,\u00c2\u00a0it appears the ideas are “primarily” self referential feedback looping.<\/p>\n

Hm… (page 202)\u00c2\u00a0Denialism is a relatively recently coined term used to differentiate between professing a conspiracy theory and merely refusing to accept a well-established official explanation.\u00c2\u00a0 Although the term arose in the context of climate change and vaccines, denialism is of course much older<\/em>.
\nAs George Will and others gripe, “— Denial” started with “Holocaust” denial, and in that sense comes off as a slur.\u00c2\u00a0 The term thus predating climate and vaccine theory usage — this book vexes me at many a turn in that “I got an objection” manner.<\/p>\n

Hm.\u00c2\u00a0 Thomas Mitchell chimes in for the Interior West<\/a>…
\nThis past week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s issue of Executive Intelligence Review magazine asks the question: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153What Is Causing Massive Wildfires In the U.S. West: The Environment \u00e2\u20ac\u201d Or Environmentalism?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

II.\u00c2\u00a0 Speaking of conspiracy theory<\/a>…<\/p>\n

Cliff Kincaid has been warning about Comey’s communist roots for some time.
\n<\/em>To understand the way the Russians really try to influence the conservative grassroots, the key is Ron Paul. The Paulites and hard leftists like Cynthia McKinney connect with Iranian and Russian money and influence through the France-based Voltaire Foundation. There you will also find writers who disseminated their demoralization campaigns through Infowars too. Much of the “leftitarian” disinformation like trutherism can be traced back through Paul and Code Pink types to Voltaire’s stable.
\n<\/em>And the site, and Paul himself, are connected to the LaRouche network. You couldn’t make this stuff up, but there it is.<\/em><\/p>\n

Or… you know… Russia TV is<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0championing the Tulsi Gabbard campaign<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Is Tulsi Gabbard getting much airplay beyond a tweet cited by this right blog site cited by the Larouchies because it mentions them?<\/p>\n

III.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Trump supporters set up display in Grand Haven<\/a>.
\nChris Sare and\u00c2\u00a0Malena Robinson… On TOUR.<\/p>\n

PAC members have been setting up in front of post offices in West Michigan and will continue to do so before meeting back in Detroit in couple of days. […]
\n<\/em>They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve recently been in Ludington, Cadillac and Bay City.
\n<\/em>It’s like a Johnny Cash song!<\/a>
\n<\/em>A few more days of this and Sare said he had to go back to work for a while before he heads out on tour again.
\n<\/em>Willie Nelson!<\/a>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Robinson said the other major campaign they are working on is to exonerate Lyndon LaRouche, who died in February at the age of 96. LaRouche ran for U.S. president eight times.
\n<\/em>That’s the one fact that the paper comes up with?<\/p>\n

Anyway… I guess they’re directing everyone to the new video release:\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Viewers of this video will vividly understand the historic depth of injustice of the LaRouche persecution and imprisonment. They will be unable to avoid the implication of the video\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s title\u00e2\u20ac\u201dthat precisely the same apparatus which framed LaRouche back in the 1980s, went on to frame up President Donald Trump, starting in 2016 and continuing to date.<\/em><\/p>\n

Though… unlike in the late 1990s. no vhs tapes \/ dvds.<\/p>\n

Other sightings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One day I walk past Gristede’s supermarket and see a young man in a blue suit sitting next to a pamphlet-laden table with a large Defend Trump placard. The Village is not Trump territory, so I wondered what group had the temerity and foolishness to publicly work for him on these streets. It turned out to be one of the followers of Lyndon LaRouche who just died at 96. I remember LaRouche as a pseudo-theorist leading an extreme left faction of the New Left in the ’60s and then shifting to the extreme right. His members always seemed cult-like, promoting odd conspiracy theories, and talking reverentially about LaRouche’s genius. He exemplified how the political extremes \u00e2\u20ac\u201d brandishing absolutes and providing a group experience that offered a sense of identity \u00e2\u20ac\u201d can often turn into each other.<\/em><\/p>\n

IV.\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0You know<\/a>…<\/p>\n

for the\u00c2\u00a0International Schiller Institute. Askary has worked as an economic and strategic analyst on Southwest Asia and North and East Africa for the Washington-based weekly magazine Executive Intelligence Review since 1996. He is the co-author of several books on the New Silk Road strategy and its impact on the world economy. His latest book-length special report “Extending the New Silk Road to West Asia and Africa” was published in November 2017. He has spoken on these matters in international conferences and seminars in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, France, Egypt, Sudan, Iran, Japan, and China. In 2018, he wrote an 80-page study on the reconstruction of Yemen and China’s Belt and Road Initiative.<\/em><\/p>\n

Okay.\u00c2\u00a0 And here it is the headline:\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Palestinians Seen \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcStateless\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 in Kushner\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Economic Plan…
\n<\/em>So.\u00c2\u00a0 It is one Larouche accolyte taking Trump to task on the Israel \/ Palestinian issue.<\/p>\n

V.\u00c2\u00a0 Standard partisan usage of Larouche as slur from breitbart<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The most puzzling thing about it is that “lyndon larouche” is a tagline… based on this one flippant usage.\u00c2\u00a0 I suppose it reinforces an analytics connection?<\/p>\n

Another insult lobbed for the ineptness of Bill de Blassio’s presidential campaign<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bill de Blasio\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s constituents appear to waver from being amused to appalled by his White House bid. Some of his past confidants have signaled they might sooner enlist with the LaRouche movement than take a job on his campaign.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Larouche Movement may just take this line too seriously and start shadowing De Blasio.<\/p>\n

VII.\u00c2\u00a0 The choir continues its performances<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The concert is incredibly exciting,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Dimmick said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s an interracial chorus whose primary mission is to preserve African-American spirituals.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

An odd juxtaposition<\/a>.
\nFun fact:\u00c2\u00a0 there are identifiable nazis schilling for larouche on new york streets.\u00c2\u00a0 At least one.\u00c2\u00a0 At the same time as the african american slave spirituals?<\/p>\n

VIII.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the leader of\u00c2\u00a0Germany’s Civil Rights Movement Solidarity party, has suggested that\u00c2\u00a0Europe\u00c2\u00a0“has to choose between the policy of geopolitical confrontation against\u00c2\u00a0Russia\u00c2\u00a0and\u00c2\u00a0China, which can only\u00c2\u00a0lead\u00c2\u00a0to a catastrophe and the offer of a new paradigm and the perspective of a win-win cooperation by joining the Belt and\u00c2\u00a0Road\u00c2\u00a0Initiative.”<\/a><\/p>\n

“The outcome of this battle will determine if\u00c2\u00a0Europe\u00c2\u00a0has a bright future or [will] be sidelined by history at\u00c2\u00a0best,” Zepp-LaRouche told Sputnik<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to say what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s more worrying about the\u00c2\u00a0Citizens Electoral Council<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0\u00e2\u20ac\u201d the\u00c2\u00a0allegations of anti-semitism<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0or their logo! (Just kidding, it is not hard to say.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Hm<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0The opposition, calling themselves The Republican Patriots, are based out of The Queens Village Republican Club, The Whitestone Republican Club and The Rockaway Republican Club. \u00c2\u00a0They endorsed candidates, sponsored guests and raised money for Proud Boys, The Lyndon LaRouche PAC and The Schiller Institute.<\/em><\/p>\n

On Hitler\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Birthday during Pesach, Phony Trump Supporter Jovi Val, \u00c2\u00a0burned the Israeli flag and made videos of it, along with social media posts of him saluting Hitler with a Nazi flag. \u00c2\u00a0This is the same Jovi Val that walked door-to-door with Vickie Paladino on September 1st. \u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0And who\u00c2\u00a0Ariola-Shanks has been fighting against.<\/em><\/p>\n

X.\u00c2\u00a0 Meanwhile.\u00c2\u00a0 Webster Tarpley makes his way to the Bilderberg Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In an interview to The Guardian, Bilderberg expert Webster Tarpley said, “She’s a NATO agent, a destabiliser, a colour revolution queen. The fact that Kodmani was there is a scary one for Syria.”<\/em><\/p>\n

That’s not a good look for the Guardian.\u00c2\u00a0 Though, this is second hand, so I’ll have to look to see what the Guardian is covering here.<\/p>\n

Will Webster Tarpley be getting back on the same page as the Larouche team and champion Tulsi Gabbard?\u00c2\u00a0 (Will the Larouchies be splitting their time between the two candidates somehow or other?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
