From the Editors: Real change on this planet, for the better, is underway, as you will learn in this issue. Led by China and its allies Russia and India, the campaign for thermonuclear fusion power development, combined with a lunar program to mine helium-3, shifts the entire standard of value for the world economy. The so-called values of the dying trans-Atlantic system, represented by President Obama, the vulture funds, Wall Street and the City of London, are exposed as fraud and bluff, as the prospect of real scientific progress for all mankind comes into view. Lyndon LaRouche returned to the podium at the Aug. 8 LaRouchePAC webcast to underscore this point (Feature). Yes, the world is dangerous-but the British Empire can be defeated if mankind relies on the "power of the Moon," the real potential for helium-3-based fusion power, as the new platform of energy-flux-density for the world economy. In a presentation with overtones of FDR's "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," LaRouche introduced the subject which will determine the future, the Chinese lunar program, and its drive to mine helium-3. The article by Cody Jones, and transcript of Ben Deniston webcast presentation provide you with a substantial review of those crucial subjects. Our news sections deal primarily with those nightmarish threats we have to get out of the way. In International, we update the Empire's war drive against Russia-a drive that it can't win, but could destroy us all. Note carefully that the Russians keep offering a way out, a pathway based on that alliance of BRICS nations, the same alliance of China, Russia, and India that is leading the helium-3/Moon drive. Helga Zepp-LaRouche addresses the problem specifically from the German perspective, telling her fellow citizens to get out of NATO now. In Economics, we turn to the African situation, which, as shown in Obama's recent Africa summit, again demonstrates the bankruptcy of the trans-Atlantic system, in the face of the BRICS/fusion power alternative now being put on the table. In National, we turn to the Obama problem directly, in the context of his latest unconstitutional war, and the lessons to be learned from the drive to impeach Richard Nixon, 40 years ago. We urge you to take advantage of the relative brevity of this issue, to study intensively the crucial change in the world strategic situation on which the future of all of us depends: our Feature on the power of helium-3.
