Talk:Views of Lyndon LaRouche and the LaRouche movement/Queen

Queen of England

Q of E: Primary

One of the most notable frauds afoot in today's credulous world is the myth of British "democracy," British "constitutional government." Britain has in fact two governments, the first a parliamentary charade for the edification of the credulous, the other the real, monarchical government.

It is notable that many persons in high positions in United States and other nations are both nominally and efficiently British intelligence services' agents-of- influence. The U.S. Labor Party has publicly docu- mented the case of Henry A. Kissinger. The cases of Vice-President Walter A. Mondale, Senator Edward Kennedy, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Werner Michael Blu- menthal, James R. Schlesinger, and many others could be added. The "Watergate" against President Richard M. Nixon was a monstrous hoax, set up from both in- and outside the administration by Kissinger, Gen- eral Alexander Haig, and other British agents-of-influ- ence, run on the outside largely by the networks of the Institute for Policy Studies and corrupt, complicit ele- mentsofthe press, themselves either British agents out- fight or British agents-of-influence, knowledge" of the inner elites, the elites not duped by The United States is only the most important of the nations massively subverted by British intelligence ser- vices in this way.

[..]

Russell also proposed the application of existing scientific technology to the purposes of mass mind-con- trol, including the development of drugs for mass use for this purpose. Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and others' leading roles in promoting psychedelic drugs and drug-cultures are part of the implementation of that British Black Guelph project for mass drug- addiction.

• The Secrets Known Only by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. The Campaigner is VOL.11 NUMBERS 3-4 MAY-JUNE 1978

That conspiracy goes back to the 1930s, when the British sent Aldous Huxley to the United States as the case officer for an operation to prepare the United States for the mass dissemination of drugs. We will take this conspiracy apart step-by-step from its small beginnings with Huxley in California to the victimization of 15 million Americans today. With 'The Aquarian Conspiracy', the British Opium War against the United States has come out into the open. [..] The high priest for Britain's Opium War was Aldous Huxley, the grandson of Thomas H. Huxley, a founder of the Rhodes Roundtable group and a lifelong collaborator of Arnold Toynbee. [..] Aldous Huxley, along with his brother Julian, was tutored at Oxford by H.G. Wells, the head of British foreign intelligence during World War I and the spiritual grandfather of the Aquarian Conspiracy. [..] In 1937, Huxley was sent to the United States, where he remained throughout the period of World War II. [..] While precise documentation is unavailable as to the auspices under which the LSD research was commissioned, it can be safely assumed that British intelligence and its subsidiary U.S. Office of Strategic Services were directly involved. [..] Watts at the same time founded the Pacifica Foundation, which sponsored two radio station WKBW in San Francisco and WBM-FM in New York City. The Pacifica stations were among the first to push the "Liverpool Sound" -- the British-imported hard rock twanging of the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, and the Animals. They would later pioneer "acid rock" and eventually the self-avowed psychotic "punk rock." [..] During the 1960s, the Tavistock Clinic fostered the notion that no criteria for sanity exist and that psychedelic "mind-expanding" drugs are valuable tools of psychoanalysis. [..] Thus, by 1963, Huxley had recruited his core of "initiates." All of them -- Leary, Osmund, Watts, Kesey, Alpert -- became the highly publicized promoters of the early LSD counterculture. By 1967, with the cult of "Flower People" in Haight-Ashbury and the emergence of the antiwar movement, the United States was ready for the inundation of LSD, hashish and marijuana that hit American college campuses in the late 1960s. In 1963, the Beatles arrived in the United States, and with their decisive airing on the Ed Sullivan Show, the "British sound" took off in the U.S.A. For their achievement, the four rocksters were awarded the Order of the British Empire by Her Majesty the Queen. The Beatles and the Animals, Rolling Stones, and homicidal punk rock maniacs who followed were, of course, no more a spontaneous outpouring of alienated youth than was the acid culture they accompanied. [..] Like the British inundation of China with drugs in the nineteenth century, the British counterculture has succeeded in. subverting the fabric of the nation, even up to the top-most levels of government.

• The Aquarian Conspiracy: Huxley, Isis, LSD and the roots of the American hedonist culture -- by EIR Staff, 1980 source: Executive Intelligence Review

If the new monetary system is firmly established, the Whore of Babylon—the Queen of England— defeated, the Great Design implemented, then inasmuch as I have contributed some special part to that end, I have succeeded in everything essential to me. Once that process is set securely into motion, the future of humanity is secured. [..] Secondly, the fact that the 1948-1949 SWP was a tiny, pariah organization during the onset of the British intelligence operation known as Senator Joe McCarthy is of no weight whatsoever in any attempted criticism of my decision in the matter. [..] Danton and Marat were British agents, trained and directed to their duties by British secret intelligence in London, and coordinated by Shelburne's intelligence agent, Jeremy Bentham. Their assignment was a terrorist operation analogous to British intelligence's deployment of international terrorism today. It is the Benthamite terrorist doctrine of the 1790s which serves as the doctrine of "leftism" generally to the present date. [..] The Wittelsbachs were British clients and British agents-of-influence. Major-General Professor Karl Haushofer, in cooperation with British agent Houston Chamberlain, selected Hitler to head the Nazi organization. Haushofer directed the writing of Hitler's Mein Kampf, and assigned his own personal aide, Rudolf Hess, to Hitler. Haushofer was nominally a political-intelligence operative for the Wittelsbach House, but with the closest relationship to ruling circles of British intelligence, and so much an agent for British geopolitical doctrines and policies that he was in fact a British agent. All of the inner circle of the original, Bavarian kernel of the Nazi Party were assigned to Hitler by the Wittelsbach political intelligence circles in a manner not too different from Bernstein's entry into the Social Democracy. [..] The case of British agent Henry A. Kissinger's role inside the Nixon administration is exemplary of such apparent exceptions. [..] Meanwhile, Daniel Ellsberg had adopted a "left cover" for a Kissinger-British deception operation known as the leaking of the "Pentagon Papers." [..] Also important was the fact that the British monarchy had more or less consistently the same line as Kissinger was being instructed to regurgitate. [..] This unit was significant in the U.S.' side of British intelligence's assassination of L.D. Trotsky in Mexico in 1940. [..] I was regarded by the British as a "potential danger" chiefly on that account—as I am at this point of writing—and thus they aimed at eliminating me in the course of any handy general terrorist deployment, providing it could be handled in such a way as not to increase my perceived political importance through "martyrdom." Since all international terrorism is deployed by networks coordinated by the British monarchy—at least what is properly termed international terrorism, as distinct from ordinary assassination activities—the correlation between the turn in overt British policy and the Baader-Meinhof assassination list was direct and most plain. [..] The discovered dominant function of the "Black" networks of the Maltese Order provided the most efficient means for tracing the direct, unbroken links between today's British-Maltese-Zionist forces of evil and the ancient oligarchist faction which the New Testament identifies as the "Whore of Babylon." The Colonna family of Rome, a hard-core element of today's Whore of Babylon, illustrates the point. This family traces itself (authentically) back to the family of Julius Caesar, not only biologically, but in an unbroken continuity of family traditions of policy.

So then you have the Tavistock Institute, and you have the outright satanic Lucifer cult, which is what the United Nations in New York is part of, which the United Nations is full of, which the Anglican Church supports. You have the worship of the Mother of Satan, Gaia, by members of the British royal family, that kind of congruence. The Mother of Satan is loose in the land, though Satan died of old age. But his mother is still around and she's still trying to breed.

Your editorial "Vote no on LaRouche" (Nov. 2) includes the following false statement: "In the alternative universe of the LaRoucheans, Henry Kissinger is a British intelligence agent; Queen Elizabeth, Oliver North and the pope are drug smugglers: . . ." The fact is that I have never accused any pope of involvement in drug smuggling in any way. This is the kind of outright lie by your publication which gives the popular news media a bad name.

• LAROUCHE SAYS 'NOT SO' Virginian - Pilot. Norfolk, Va.: Nov 7, 1995. pg. A.10

It was common knowledge before 1921, that the British Empire was the world's leading drug trafficker in the 19th century. Even Ted Koppel, in a recent ``Nightline" special report on Hongkong, was forced to admit this.

Lyndon LaRouche's associates published Dope, Inc., which documents how this British control has continued to this day. Treason in America, by Anton Chaitkin, documents how Opium trafficking played a central role in building up the ``treason" faction in America. However, this subject has been declared ``off-limits," by the defamation of LaRouche, as exemplified by the slander, ``LaRouche claims that the Queen of England runs drugs."

The drug was widely used in Britain itself, even by the Royal Family, as shown by revelations that Queen Victoria's court frequently ordered Opium from the royal apothecary at Balmoral. [..]

To understand British actions in the Opium Wars, it is necessary to step back, and to place them in the context of modern history. The establishment of the nation-state, with the creation of France under Louis XI, as a project of the Golden Renaissance, allowed mankind to rise above a condition where 95% of the population lived little better than cattle. However, a financial oligarchy, centered in Venice, was bitterly committed to preserving feudalism. This Venetian oligarchy survived, and succeeded in capturing the Netherlands and England as the base for their operations.

The British East India Company (the "Company") was one of the institutions created as a product of the Venetian takeover of England. The Levant Company, set up to trade with the East, had been formed in 1592 as a fusion of the Turkey Company and the Venice Company. In 1600, the East India Company was formed as a spin-off of the Levant Company. It received a perpetual charter from the British Monarchy for a monopoly on trade with the East Indies. [..]

In May 1996, Helga Zepp-LaRouche presented LaRouche's concept of using the Eurasian Land-Bridge as the basis for global economic reconstruction to a government-sponsored Symposium on the Land-Bridge in Beijing.

It is through this economic reconstruction, that the drug-running, looting policies of the British empire, will finally be defeated.

• THE CHINESE Opium WARS: The Queen of England Pushes Dope by Robert Trout Printed in the American Almanac, July, 1997.Opium.htm

Now the British Empire today, contrary to what most Americans are misled to believe, is still an empire, but of a very special form. It's called the Commonwealth. Most people don't know how the British Empire functions. They think--they believe a silly fairy tale, that the British Parliament runs Britain. It's not true. They believe that the Queen of England is a figurehead. It's not true. They don't know what's going on. The Parliament is a joke. It's an adaptation, a reform of the Monarchy. It does not run the Monarchy. The Queen runs from the top down, through a Privy Council. Number One on the Privy Council, after the Queen, is the Church of England, the head of the Church of England, and then a whole lot of other people, about 500. These 500 people run the British Empire, including the apparatus of its old Colonial Office. The Colonial Office was never disbanded. They call it the Overseas Development Office now. The Crown Agents who ran the colonies still function. They operate whole countries around the world. The mercenary forces we see in Africa and elsewhere are British mercenary forces, under the personal, direct command of the Queen through a thing called the Corps of Commissionaires; that is, these are generally retired military veterans, officers and high-ranking non-coms usually, both from the British Commonwealth system; that is, the various members of the British Commonwealth, or people like Americans, who are ex-GIs, officers and soldiers, who are, as was the case with Ollie North, and people like that, under George Bush, were recruited as mercenary auxiliaries within the British mercenary system. [..] But, at the same time, through an operation run through the Church of England, which is a Pentecostalist--but other charismatic operations, run by the British Queen directly--has taken over large chunks of denominations in the United States, in addition to those like--for example, Pat Robertson is, in fact, an agent of the British Monarchy today! This is a case of an empire, a state running the church--so the church is not run for God; it's run for the Queen! And the religion is shaped, and manipulated to serve the interests of the Queen and what she represents in terms of the Empire. Not to serve God. But, nonetheless, they seize upon the mechanisms of religious belief among sections of our population--especially our military. [..] But the cover of that disaffection is used for the enemies of the United States--the British--to actually create terrorist threats--I'm talking about the kind of thing that happened in Oklahoma City--inside the United States. The greatest single security threat here. It also is a major security--it's key to the genocide, the holocaust which the British have been running in Africa. [..] And it's time that the American people knew what is really going on in the fellow making funny noises in the next room. That a very intense brainwashing operation, run largely through the Anglican communion, the greater Anglican communion, run by the British Queen, which is run, in large degree, through some of the Episcopal hierarchy, the Episcopal Church in the United States, which includes some of the Pentecostalists. It includes, of course, Pat Robertson; it includes a lot of people like that. And this has become a major security threat, that is, a church which is not a church running the state, but a church created and organized and directed by a state. It's a very dangerous thing. It's what the old Roman Empire, and the Babylonian Empire, and the Cult of Apollo, and the Byzantine Empire did before. It's one of the horrors from the bowels of human history. And somebody has resurrected it against us here in the United States. It's about time we paid attention!

• Introduction: Know Your Enemy Lyndon H. LaRouche Printed in The American Almanac, August 25, 1997.[8]

If we were to misapply to the human species, the same ecological criteria employed in study of animal populations, our species would appear to fall among the great apes, as the father of the children of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II insists.21 If that lunatic assumption of the Duke of Edinburgh were adopted, then, by the relevant standards of animal ecology, there is no time, under the conditions existing on this planet during the recent two millions years, up to the present day, when it would appear that the human population could ever have exceeded several millions living individuals. All the facts show any rational person, that the Duke of Edinburgh is a royal fraud. [..] To permit the continuation of the effort, by the many professed great apes among the present inhabitants of the British Isles, Prince Philip, et al., to turn back the clock of history, would be the greatest disaster in modern times. This is to speak of the effort which was launched by Prince Philip’s co-founding of the neo-Malthusian World Wildlife Fund, in collaboration with former Nazi SS’er Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands.24 This, Prince Philip’s neo-Malthusian effort to return the world to the political and social conditions of Europe’s medieval age,25 was furthered by what we have referenced as the 1964-1972 cultural paradigm-shift, and the launching of such offshoots of the World Wildlife Fund’s initiatives as the Club of Rome26 and Greenpeace.

• How to Think in a Time of Crisis by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. March 5, 1998 [9]

In the June 4 edition of the Hollinger Corp.'s Daily Telegraph, Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, the infamous "Clinton-basher," penned a shameless slander against EIR and Lyndon LaRouche, absurdly blaming us for the "conspiracy industry" that has built up since the Aug. 31, 1997 death of Princess Diana, her companion Dodi Fayed, and driver Henri Paul. In typical Evans-Pritchard style, the British poison pen, who admits to close collaboration with Britain's MI6 intelligence service in all of his overseas assignments, lied that EIR is "accusing the Queen of ordering the assassination of Diana, Princess of Wales." He continued, "The group is led by Lyndon H. LaRouche, 76, a cranky economist, convicted felon and publisher of a book that accuses the Queen of being the world's foremost drug dealer." The latter bit of black propaganda is a reference to the book Dope, Inc., first published in 1979, 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.

• This editorial appeared in the June 12, 1998 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. Comprehensive background on the circles implicated in the murder of Princess Diana can be found in EIR's 1997 Special Report, The True Story Behind the Fall of the House of Windsor. EDITORIAL LaRouche's enemies are Clinton's enemies [10]

The LaRouche role in the Windsors' troubles came to the surface in 1994, when EIR published "The Coming Fall of the House of Windsor," a Special Report exposing the role of Prince Philip and his World Wildlife Fund (WWF, now the World Wide Fund for Nature), in triggering the worst genocide in modern history in the Great Lakes region of Africa. Even as EIR's exposés of the Windsors circulated throughout the world diplomatic community and among factions of the British establishment, with rare exceptions, the name "LaRouche" was banned from the British press.[FIGURE 1] All that changed, beginning with the June 4 Evans-Pritchard diatribe. The article not only accused LaRouche and EIR of heading the "conspiracy industry," and of accusing "the Queen of being the world's foremost drug dealer." [..] Wheen recited the litany of smears: LaRouche says "the Queen runs an international cocaine smuggling cartel," that "Henry Kissinger is a communist agent," and, interestingly, that "the Italian banker Roberto Calvi was murdered by the Duke of Kent." (Calvi was himself a member of the extended royal family.) [..] On other fronts, the British establishment is torn over how to deal with the onrush of the financial collapse. Prince Philip and his circle have no compunctions about throwing the world into decades of chaos and genocide, in order to retain oligarchical control. But other, less insane forces within the City of London financial elite are apparently asking, "What do we get out of such chaos and destruction?" and may be seeking a new political alliance, perhaps with the United States, and sane forces on the continent who are opposed to the suicidal Maastricht Treaty. [..]The common point of agreement among the "chaos" factions within the British and continental oligarchies, is that the power of the United States, as the pillar of the nation-state system, must be destroyed in the immediate period ahead, lest LaRouche's ideas for a nation-state-centered New Bretton Woods solution to the present global mess, be adopted, along with LaRouche's vision for a Eurasian Land-Bridge plan of global economic reconstruction.

• This article appears in the June 19, 1998 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. New `Diana Wars' in Britain Put Focus on LaRouche by Jeffrey Steinberg [11]

By the time the mid-1970s had been reached, our nation’s enemy was not the Soviet Union, but rather certain evil little giant girls, playing with dolls, which toyed with nations, snickering wicked giggles all the time. They toyed with, and tortured nations as if peoples were but playroom marionettes. The doll-house game these evil little giant girls played, in their satanic manner of giggling, was the game of doomsday. It was what President Reagan derided as a game of “revenge weapons;” it was a game which silly wicked girls like the Queen’s own Henry Kissinger named “MAD:” Mutual and Assured Destruction. The evil little giant girls told the marionettes: “We are witches, come to warn you; you must try to destroy the other marionette before he destroys you, but you must not trigger a nuclear war, in which you would both assuredly be destroyed.” Such were the string of lies, by which the silly little giant witches wickedly manipulated those foolish marionettes.

• Lyndon LaRouche, “The New ABM Flap,” Executive Intelligence Review, 26 Feb. 1999 http://www.larouchepub.com/lar/1999/lar-abm_flap2609.html. as quoted in: Lyndon LaRouche: Fascism Restyled for the New Millennium by Helen Gilbert 2007

First of all, if a person as popular as Princess Diana can not be assured justice, who can? As was made clear in the moments following her wrongful death, she was for many Britons like the fabulous Snow White of the fairy-tale, victim of the vengeful wrath of a witch-like, jealous old Queen. If we do not deliver justice for a person of such popularity, who can believe that justice is assured for them? Indeed, if the British monarchy and its accomplices can treat the case of Princess Diana so, who, in any such nations, can believe that the actual right to justice exists for them?

Second, Princess Diana deserved special consideration by reason of her status as a friend of Mother Teresa. Here was Diana, in torment over the circumstances into which she had been cast by a jealous old Queen and the Queen's dishonorable son, Prince Charles. In her torment, Diana turned to Mother Teresa, and sought to make her own life more meaningful by using her celebrity for the cause of justice. On this account, for reasons I need not explain here, I have some personal obligation to the late Mother Teresa, an obligation which EIR gladly shares with me.

Third, the British monarchy, Princess Diana's persecutor, is evil. Perhaps, in the course of time, the inhabitants of the so-called British Isles will make certain suitable changes in those islands' political affairs. Meanwhile, the stench of genocide against an estimated six millions African victims of the British monarchy's meddling in Central Africa, perhaps the most massive case of ongoing genocide of this century, demands a cordon sanitaire containing such a monarchy's polluting influence in international affairs.

Fourth, it is necessary to make the nature of the British monarchy's role in world affairs clear to those many, childishly simple-minded babblers who babble the nonsensical assertion, that the British monarchy is only a ceremonial fixture, denying the actual, most dictatorial power it wields over most of the British Isles and much of the Commonwealth besides.

The British Queen is the actual head of state of not only the United Kingdom, but also the British Commonwealth. She is to that vast empire as the old Doge of Venice was to the far-flung financial-oligarchical power then centered at the north of the Adriatic. Relative to the Queen, the British parliamentary government is more a side-show than an actually ruling power. The state apparatus--the military and so on--exists "On Her Majesty's Service;" the parliament can be turned over almost on a whim, through a readily orchestrated parliamentary coup d'état of the sort which the Telegraph and its accomplices attempted, with their fraudulent impeachment efforts, against the Presidency and Constitution of the U.S.A.

The Empire over which the Queen presides, is the greatest financial and political power in the world today. [..]

One of the things which ought to appear on the front pages of every newspaper in the U.S., if those publications were moral ones, would be a cartoon, showing an ugly, mean-spirited Queen Elizabeth II pushing a baby-carriage, the latter conveying a big-eared Prince Charles. The cartoon's caption would be: "Sometimes, Queen Elizabeth did push dope!"

Think of the number of times, from 1984 through 1986 and beyond, virtually all leading print and electronic media in the U.S.A. said, repeatedly: "He [Lyndon LaRouche] says the Queen pushes dope." I never said that, and every mass-medium in the U.S. which published that false report knew it to be false. The question, "Do you say that the Queen pushes dope?" was asked of me, on camera, by an NBC-TV interviewer from NBC's Chicago flagship. The question was asked, in Washington, D.C., during 1982. I replied to that question by stating I did not say such a thing: on camera. But, nonetheless, every national TV medium which referenced that recorded interview lied by cutting out the reporter's question and my response. Instead, the announcer supplied the ritual assertion: "He says the Queen pushes dope!"

• This article appeared in the June 11, 1999 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. What EIR Knows and What Hollinger Says by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. May 26, 1999[12]

In its Aug. 5 edition, Take a Break published an article under the banner headline, "Shut This Man's Mouth," with a large photo of LaRouche appearing next to these words. Written by one Katie Fraser, the piece characterized LaRouche as "dangerous," and claimed that Buckingham Palace has become "increasingly alarmed" at the fact that exposés by LaRouche-associated publications about the British monarchy, such as the alleged royal family's involvement in the death of Princess Diana, "are being spread around the globe," and are being read in places like China, the Middle East, South America, and Africa, thanks to their circulation, including over the Internet. [..] Indeed, the Take a Break smear contained absurd misrepresentations of LaRouche and EIR's coverage of the monarchy, and the death of Princess Diana. The article claimed that LaRouche accuses the Queen of running a drug cartel, called "Dope, Inc.," and of ordering the murders of Princess Diana and President John F. Kennedy. In fact, LaRouche, in 1978, commissioned a book-length study of the worldwide drug trade, entitled Dope, Inc., Britain's Opium War Against the United States, which presented extensive evidence of the City of London's role in the drug trade dating back to the 19th-century Opium Wars. EIR has also provided extensive coverage of the unanswered questions surrounding the wrongful death of Princess Diana, questions that remain unanswered to this day.

The book was subtitled Britain’s Opium War Against the U.S. On Aug. 5, 1999, Take A Break, a British magazine catering to women’s issues (circulation 1.4 million) ran a Page One slander on Mr. LaRouche entitled "Shut This Man’s Mouth,” which violently attacked the Democratic Presidential pre-candidate, for supposedly "seriously discrediting" the "carefully nurtured reputation" of Queen Elizabeth II.

The source of this problem is essentially a connection between a phenomenon in France, called the Synarchist International, which essentially took over at the Versailles Treaty, in alliance with the British and Dutch. The alliance largely took the form, as you will hear today—I won't go into the details, but just to indicate the nature of the problem—took the form of the Synarchists associated with Lazard Frères, and particularly, specifically with André Meyer of France; leading Synarchist bankers who moved into an alliance with Royal Dutch Shell, and the Dutch royal family and the British royal family. This is the phenomenon today called the Bilderberg Society, which is not really a society, it's just a meeting of people who reflect this. They're not the controllers, there's no Bilderberg conspiracy. It's a completely different conspiracy.

What we’ve done, which has been steered from Britain— and the President of the United States is a puppet of the British monarchy; he’s not really a President of the United States—just a puppet, a British puppet; a poor, little Puppet Nero, of the British monarchy. [..] The situation is the same in Europe. Europe has no power, Western and Central Europe, no power whatsoever. They lost their sovereignty to the British Empire. [..] Because Roosevelt understood, the British Empire is the main enemy of civilization! It was then, and it is today! We must get the world free of the British Empire! We must shut down the British Empire! It’s been around too long. And we must restore the United States to its Constitutional intention, its mission for mankind. [..] The British Empire is still a big drug dealer. It’s the author of slavery, in former times, and those forms of slavery today. [..] As a matter of fact, the British Empire and the Obama policy is exactly that: A policy of genocide. The British have said the policy: You can not maintain a system of the type the British want on this planet, by tolerating a planetary population of more than 2 billion people. The policy of the World Wildlife Fund of Prince Philip, is exactly that. The environmental policy is just exactly that; the cap-and-trade policy is exactly that! It’s a policy of genocide! [..] So the British have created this orchestration. And it’s all over the press, which is largely British-controlled— most of the U.S. press is British-controlled: Who controls the New York Times? Go through the newspapers today, who controls them? They’re all controlled by the British Empire! [..] The British control the so-called Sykes-Picot area, since World War I; they control the area from Turkey down, in the East. They control Israel, they control the various Arab factions; they control the area of Iran; they are now breaking up Pakistan; they control Afghanistan. [..] The British are running the area of Afghanistan where the drugs are being produced. The drugs are being produced by farmers, who are working under a gun at their neck, being forced to produce Opium, for the benefit of what? For the benefit of the British Empire. [..] This was then consolidated through the aid of Teddy Roosevelt, who was a British agent. His uncle, after all, was a Confederate spy. [..] Nelson (right) and David Rockefeller, among others, set up the Trilateral Commission, which was essentially a British operation, that ran the government under President Carter and, later, under Reagan. [..]You have to set out to destroy the real enemy. And that’s why I do what I do. Why I talk to Russia, China, and so forth, the way I do. I’m out to bring about a coalition of nation states which will destroy the British Empire. And only things in that direction will do any good. Any other strategy will lose.

Yes, Mabel, the Queen of England does push dope. Anyone who seeks to deny this now, is worse than a Nazi-like liar. Worse, her government is presently engaged in the greatest attempt at mass-murder, planet-wide, in world history to date. In her regime's effort to bring about the great, world-wide genocide advocated by the World Wildlife Fund of her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, her minions have also attempted to destroy the most prominent force against genocide operating world-wide today, the Catholic Church. Worst of all, she is using her dupe, the Nero-like, would-be, Hitler-like mass-murderer President Barack Obama, in the effort to accomplish those Hitler-copied objectives. [..] One of the leading features of the practices of the drug-pushing British monarchy, is the British effort to destroy the Catholic Church, world-wide, in an attempt to eliminate that Papacy which continues to be the chief opponent of British-orchestrated campaigns of genocide throughout the world at large, as the British Empire has done in Africa for about two centuries.

Books and pamphlets

They conceal their confusion and intellectual laziness with jokes about LaRouche the kook who thinks the Queen of England pushes drugs, entirely missing the real meaning of his quip about the Queen.

• Dennis King, Chapter Twenty-seven

When LaRouche says the Queen of England pushes drugs or that Britain is the chief enemy of the United States, he is not merely indulging in eccentricity or a Freudian dislike of female authority figures. These statements have a serious meaning to anti-Semites and neo-Nazis in West Germany and the United States. They are eccentric only to those who have not studied the history of modern anti-Semitism, in which the theme of Jewish-British race mixing and Jewish domination of the British Empire looms large. [..] LaRouche claims that the British-Rothschild establishment (and the Queen) controls the international drug traffic.

• Dennis King, Chapter Twenty-nine

[LaRouche] argues that a single oligarchic conspiracy has been bedeviling mankind since the dawn of history. Its headquarters were first in Babylon, then in Rome, Venice, and now in London. The British aristocracy aspires to achieve world hegemony through conspiratorial means; the Queen of England is the number 1 danger to humanity. In his view, the British gain power in large part by reducing the status of other populations through war, starvation, and contraception, and in part by drugging them with popular culture and hallucinogens. Once the British have achieved a "new Dark Ages" of unrestrained capitalism, London-based conspirators will reign supreme and will use their power to kill off large parts of the human race through nuclear weapons, AIDS, and other methods. To prevent this catastrophe, LaRouche advocates preparation for total war against Great Britain.

• Conspiracy: How the Paranoid Style Flourishes and Where It Comes From by Daniel Pipes New York: Free Press, 1997 as quoted here:[19]

Executive Intelligence Review regularly reported that Queen Elizabh ran an international cocaine smuggling cartel and that Italian banker Roberto Calvi was murdered by the Duke of Kent. The Executive Intelligence Review also claimed that the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing was a first strike in a British attempt to take over the United States with the eventual goal of world domination.

• Conspiracy theories in American history: an encyclopedia, Volume 1 By Peter Knight p. 246 [20]

In the words of arch conspiracy-theorist, Lyndon LaRouche, in 1997: “The Queen runs from the top down, through a Privy Council. Number One on the Privy Council, after the Queen, is the Church of England, the head of the Church of England, and then a whole lot of other people, about 500. These 500 people run the British Empire, including the apparatus of its old Colonial Office. The Colonial Office was never disbanded. They call it the Overseas Development Office now.”

As an offshoot of the Foreign Office, with a relatively tiny budget spent largely on aid and development projects, the ODA (now the Department For International Development) is an odd choice of villain. But then it turns out that the DFID is a pawn in a much larger global game. According to LaRouche and his co-theorists, the Windsors wield power through an assortment of agencies. As President Emeritus of the World Wildlife Fund, Prince Philip – apparently “the Doge of London” – “leads the world in orchestration of ethnic conflict and terrorism”. To date, successes of the WWF have included the Rwandan genocide, which was not, as you may blindly believe, the work of marauding, machete-wielding bands of Hutu extremists, but in fact executed by trained soldiers from Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni’s army. (Don’t be fooled by Uganda’s apparent support for the opposing Tutsi rebels.) These soldiers were all trained in camps set up under the guise of WWF gorilla-protection programmes. Given that the Overseas Development Agency “controls” Museveni, the troops were in fact little more than proxies for the British. [..] To rule this empire according to the feudal model – and nothing else would be acceptable to Prince Philip and his blueblooded friends in the City of London – would apparently require that the world’s population be reduced fivefold to one billion people. . . Starting with Lyndon LaRouche. According to a 1999 article in the LaRouche magazine Executive Intelligence Review, the publication of a distinctly negative article in the budget UK women’s magazine Take A Break was apparently the first step in an MI6 campaign to assassinate him.

Very recent writings make it clear that LaRouche has not lost his pathological hatred of women. The Queen of England and ex-British Prime Minister and arch-conservative Margaret Thatcher, are often labelled witches, as are LaRouche’s male opponents. This is not mere name-calling. [..] He continues in this vein for six more paragraphs. The “brutish Queen, Elizabeth II” is identified as one of the evil girls. Could the others be Margaret Thatcher and Golda Meir, who were in office during the 1970s? [..] A LaRouche Chronology - mid-1970s: LaRouche develops ties with paramilitaries, spies, and mercenaries.

An anti-British, anti-Freemason conspiracy myth, that partially expresses itself in excessive anti-British tirades (e.g. an NBC broadcast of March 4, 1984, LaRouche on Queen Elizabeth II: “Of course she pushes drugs, that is to say in the sense of being responsible: the head of a gang, that pushes drugs; she knows that it happens, and she doesn’t do anything to stop it.”) appears as a further component of the LO ideology and turns up again and again with different embellishments.

Under Queen Elizabeth II and British Intelligence (MI5 and MI6), an "Anglo-american cabal" rules the world and presently is engaged in a genocidal program... The Anglo-american cabal finances and reaps most of the profits of the illegal drug traffic, and also finances (as tools of genocide) the birth control and abortion movements; to further de-populate and deplete the planet, they also promote Feminism, homosexuality, Satanism, and "the sex-drug-rock-and-roll counterculture."

He mentioned a woman who was on the panel in 1982. "She was kind of meek," Adler said.

The fact is that LaRouche's ideology is not compatible with either the Republican or the Democratic Party. LaRouche has termed himself a "neo-Platonic democratic republican," a nonsense phrase that is nonetheless appropriate. The man is a paranoid, and paranoids operate not on logic but on fear and emotion. They reach positions independent of data. They feel free to hold contradictory conclusions. They are truly anti-ideological, in the sense that ideologies signify a coherence of thought. That is why it is futile to challenge LaRouche for supporting evidence or try to refute him. How does he know that the Queen of England and the Trilateral Commission are part of a plot to take over the world? Ask, and you get a knowing smile. In the world of the conspiracy theorist, the rest of us are innocents.

But equally interesting are the labels the press has been pinning on Mr. LaRouche, mainly because of the insights they offer into certain prevailing attitudes in the "media." First, a few samples of the man's exotic political views: A cartel of British and Jewish bankers and the Queen of England controls much of the world; free-market economists Milton Friedman and F.A. Hayek run a world-wide drug trafficking empire; Henry Kissinger is "a Soviet agent of influence."

Meet Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr.'s No. 1 gun in Pennsylvania, a 34-year-old self-styled economic consultant, former roofer and oft-slated candidate on the National Democratic Policy Committee ticket. [Steven] Douglas is running in the Pennsylvania Democratic primary on a LaRouche slate that includes one candidate for the U.S. Senate, 18 for Congress, five for the state Senate and 50 for Democratic Party positions, according to Fred Henderson, NPDC spokesman. Their platform, embraced by Douglas, is pure LaRoucheian, focused on a profound fear of AIDS, drugs, Soviet scientists and the International Monetary Fund. And yes, Douglas truly believes that the Queen of England, the monarch with the large handbags and sensible shoes, is the chief operating officer of a global drug-selling conglomerate. "The Queen of England, the royal family, sits on top of a network that has continued the age-old policy of the British empire of running drugs," Douglas said in an interview last week. "If you don't believe that, then you know nothing about history." [..] Next subject: drugs. And the Queen. "The only way you're going to shut down the drug trade is by going after the people who are 'above suspicion,' the people who really run the operation," Douglas said. And of course, he said, that includes Queen Elizabeth, Princess Di and the rest of the royal family, along with White House Chief of Staff Donald T. Regan. LaRoucheians trace the alleged British involvement in drug trafficking to the Opium wars of the mid-19th century, during which English traders battled China for the right to import Opium. "Does the Queen of England push nickel and dime bags? No. Does she know what she's on top of? Absolutely," Douglas said. Asked to prove that the Queen of England runs drugs, Douglas said, "You disprove it." [..] A LaRoucheian candidate, Denise Henderson, is running against incumbent U.S. Rep. William H. Gray III. An aide to Gray, Jerry Mondesire, said the congressman was not concerned.

[..] Queen a Pusher: For example, he said, the press quotes LaRouche as saying that the Queen of England pushes dope, and then makes no attempt to explain the meaning behind the remark. What LaRouche means, Zondervan said, is that the Queen is the titular head of a society in which drug use is rampant, but the Queen does not speak out against such "moral bankruptcy" and against "world banking circles that support drug pushers by laundering their money." Thus, LaRouche's claim that the Queen pushes drugs is an attempt to hold her-and the governments of all nations-responsible for not taking effective measures to deal with the drug problem.

[..] Interviews with Alcoset and other LaRouche candidates indicate that the leader of the splinter group may use a novel symbolic language in trying to communicate his ideas through the media. Two examples offered by LaRouche candidates: When LaRouche charges that the Queen of England is a drug pusher, he does not mean that she is actually dealing dope at Buckingham Palace. He means to shock the world into awareness that the Queen and other national leaders have, as LaRouche sees it, acquiesced to rampant drug use by their citizens. That, in LaRouche language, is the same as condoning and even participating in drug-related crimes.

The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith intensified its campaign against Lyndon LaRouche's political movement yesterday, calling it a devious cult. The league, long a foe of LaRouche and four times a defendant in unsuccessful libel suits filed by his organization, said it will circulate 100,000 copies of a pamphlet on "the LaRouche cult's fantasy world." It will include quotations from LaRouche publications that tie Queen Elizabeth II to the drug trade, describe Soviet dissident Andrei Sakharov as a KGB agent and suggest that jazz was "foisted on black Americans by the same oligarchy which had run the U.S. slave trade." These statements, said league national chairman Kenneth Bialkin at a news conference, are representative of LaRouche's political thought, which he called "fundamentally gibberish," adding that "it's anti-social, it doesn't make sense." [..] Donna Scanlon, speaking for LaRouche, called the allegations "a combination of wild distortions and lies.

An employee of the U.S. drug Enforcement Administration allegedly cooperated with a LaRouche "investigative team" on another project, Dope Inc., originally published in 1978 and now in a second edition. Former LaRouche loyalists have said a person generally understood to be a DEA staff member spent days in the New York NCLC office contributing to the book's manuscript, which blames the British royal family for the international Opium trade. "From 1715, when the British East India Company opened up its first Far East office in the Chinese port city of Canton," says the book, "it has been official British Crown policy to foster mass-scale drug addiction."

It also says the British royal family lives off drug profits and the Blessed Virgin is a manifestation of Satan. David Matas, a lawyer for the League for Human Rights of B'nai B'rith, says the news media tend not to take the LaRouche movement seriously when it says the Queen sells drugs.

Hadley cautioned a reporter not to distort his views to portray him as one of those extremists who says Queen Elizabeth is a drug dealer. But he did allege that the British royal family controls the Hong Kong Shanghai Bank, which he accused of laundering the money used to run all the Opium in and out of Southeast Asia.

Glenn Mesaros, chairman of the LaRouche Democrats in Minnesota, noted that the Nov. 4 edition called Lyndon LaRouche a "political extremist" and in so doing "violated your policy." LaRouche is serving a 15-year sentence for scheming to defraud the Internal Revenue Service and defaulting on $30 million in loans. He's correct. The policy says to "avoid one-word descriptions of LaRouche and his followers . . . which unnecessarily inflame some of our readers and don't really explain very much. If a one-sentence description is appropriate to your story, use this: LaRouche and his followers take many positions on the radical right, often blaming international conspiracies for the world's problems. "If a longer statement is required, use this: LaRouche, who began his political life as a Marxist, now takes radical-right positions on many issues. He favors mandatory AIDS testing for everyone and quarantining AIDS victims. He blames international conspiracies for much of the world's problems, calls the Holocaust a hoax and says Queen Elizabeth of England leads the international drug trade."

Seen in the cold light of day, his beliefs are both absurd and horrifying. The Holocaust is "a common delusion of the American Zionist." Asians are "a lower form of animal life." Henry Kissinger was a Soviet agent and remains an "enemy of the human race." The British royal family runs the worldwide drug trade, was responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy and is now planning to murder Bill Clinton. Such is the vicious nonsense peddled by Lyndon LaRouche: economist, ideologue, convicted fraud-artist and perennial fringe candidate for the U.S. presidency.

AMID FBI confusion as to whether Timothy McVeigh can be positively placed at the scene of the crime, and doubts about the reliability of his jailhouse confession, a new suspect for the Oklahoma City bombing has emerged. He is Lord William Rees Mogg, the former editor of the Times. According to an American newspaper, the New Federalist, Lord Moggy is "directly involved in stirring up the climate for an anti-government terrorist act". Also implicated is the House of Windsor. The newspaper is the mouthpiece of cult leader Lyndon Larouche, a colourful politician - sometimes ultra right, sometimes ultra left - who often stands for president and boasts a conviction for massive fraud. Despite all this, Lord Moggy seems unfazed. "I am treating this with considerable calm. I am familiar of old with Mr Larouche, who has installed me as head of British intelligence. As such I am also personal adviser to the Queen, who is incidentally the organising brain behind the world's drug trade, on destabilising the United States." Although his personal politics are flexible ("broadly speaking," says Lord Rees Mogg, "he is in favour of both Stalin and Hitler"), Mr Larouche is rigid when it comes to the British oligarchy's obsession with destroying America. Determined to go one better by destabilising the entire planet is the IMF, which created the Aids virus; but as to which organisation of evil maniacs created Loyd Grossman's voice box, Mr Larouche is unnaturally reticent.

LaRouche, one of the loopier figures on the American political scene, is best known for his belief that the Queen runs an international cocaine-smuggling ring and that Henry Kissinger is a communist agent. But now, as he prepares to run for the presidency yet again, he has turned his attention to Rees-Mogg and Evans-Pritchard, alleging that they control a `powerful London-centred apparatus that declared war on the United States immediately after the inauguration of President Clinton'. There is, he admits, no `smoking gun' proving that the double-barrelled desperadoes were responsible for last year's explosion in Oklahoma City, which killed 168 people. `But circumstantial evidence places the British at the top of the suspects' list.' How so? Before the Oklahoma bombing, `Evans-Pritchard, Rees-Mogg and their cohorts were `predicting' a `long hot summer' of urban and rural violence'. There is only one possible explanation for this prescience: Rees-Mogg and Evans-Pritchard are guilty of `international terrorism'.

`Subscribe to Executive Intelligence Review!' LaRouche's website pleads. `As you will quickly discover, the Executive Intelligence Review is not an ordinary weekly news magazine. Every week, EIR runs unique political analyses, reports and interviews which you can't find anywhere else.' Here, for once, he is speaking the truth. Apart from the Review, few if any news magazines have reported that the Queen runs an international cocaine-smuggling cartel, that Henry Kissinger is a communist agent and that the Italian banker Roberto Calvi was murdered by the Duke of Kent. In recent years LaRouche and Steinberg have been pursuing another `unique' theory - that `international terrorism' is masterminded by none other than Lord Rees-Mogg and the Daily Telegraph reporter Ambrose Evans-Pritchard. After the Oklahoma massacre of 1995, in which 168 people died, Executive Intelligence Review admitted that there was `no smoking gun' (yes, that dread phrase again) bearing the fingerprints of Rees-Mogg and Evans-Pritchard. `But circumstantial evidence places the British at the top of the suspects' list.' LaRouche claims Rees-Mogg and Evans-Pritchard are part of a `powerful London-centred apparatus that declared war on the United States immediately after the inauguration of President Clinton'. Whitewater, Troopergate, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky - all these scandals can be traced back to our double-barrelled desperadoes. During the 1996 presidential campaign, Executive Intelligence Review carried the glorious headline: `US Election is Also a Referendum on Britain's Lord Rees-Mogg.' But Rees-Mogg and Evans-Pritchard are merely servants of the `powerful London-centred apparatus'. The Mr Big whose orders they obey is Prince Philip - presumably because the Queen is too busy smuggling cocaine and hanging out with the Medellin boys to take charge herself. The intention, according to LaRouche, is to discredit and destabilise the US until it is forced to become a British colony once again, thus taking the House of Windsor another giant stride on its road to world domination. Only one person in Britain was powerful enough to thwart the conspiracy - Princess Diana, who had `declared war' on the royal family in her Panorama interview. And so she had to be killed.

Such conspiracy theories are the staple diet of EIR, which, despite its businesslike name, is produced by Lyndon H LaRouche, a 76-year-old cranky economist, convicted fraudster and cult leader who believes Henry Kissinger, the former US secretary of state, and the Queen are engaged in a conspiracy to subvert the world by flooding it with Aids and drugs. Among the magazine's obsessions is the "corrupt" house of Windsor. After the crash that killed Diana, the magazine became the foremost exponent of the "murder, not accident" theory, laying the blame on the British Establishment and the house of Windsor. The magazine's senior editor, Jeffrey Steinberg, appeared as an expert analyst on an ITV documentary broadcast in June 1998, entitled Diana: The Secrets Behind the Crash, which examined, among other theories, the claim that the driver of the Mercedes in which the princess died may have been deliberately blinded by an anti-personnel laser - a theory raised by Tomlinson.

Fair enough though I was slightly peeved when LaRouche wrote to me a few years ago alleging that Rees-Mogg was also the secret author of the Wheen's world column. During the 1996 presidential campaign, Executive Intelligence Review carried the splendid headline: `US Election is also a Referendum on Britain's Lord Rees-Mogg.' But the villainous Rees-Mogg is no more than an accomplice to the real Napoleon of Crime, otherwise known as Prince Philip. According to LaRouche, the royal family wants to terrorise the United States into becoming a British colony again, thus giving the House of Windsor a monopoly in the American cocaine market. The only person powerful enough to foil this plot was the Princess of Wales, which is why she had to be eliminated. After the bombing of the US embassy in Nairobi last summer, LaRouche instantly detected the Duke of Edinburgh's fingerprints. `If Satan considered his darling, Adolf Hitler, to be relatively a wimp, Satan must be gloating over his selection of Prince Philip as Hitler's successor. As I shall demonstrate, this view of Prince Philip as quite literally a satanic figure is no hyperbole. . .' LaRouche's latest pamphlet, The Pure Evil of Al Gore, adds that the American vice-president is a secret agent of the Windsors, committed to `the British monarchy's longer-range strategic policy for the planet as a whole'. This may seem barmy but no barmier than many of the `intelligence assessments' provided by MI6 over the years. Lyndon LaRouche thinks that the Italian banker Roberto Calvi was murdered by the Duke of Kent; those fine public servants at Vauxhall Cross are convinced that only someone who knows the difference between an Earl and a Marquess is fit to be initiated into the mysteries of trade- craft. Which is the more eccentric?

In the United States there is a millionaire, Lyndon Larouche, who alleges that I organised the Oklahoma City bombing. He once sent a picket to my publisher in Baltimore to protest about it. My motive, he suggested, was to destabilise President Clinton so that the Queen, who is the head of the world drug cartel, could be put on the throne of Mexico. She would presumably have found that a convenient place of business. Our co-conspirator is the Dalai Lama. So far as I can recall, Mr Larouche also believes that I run MI6.

An American intelligence expert, Daniel Brandt, says: "LaRouche claims that a network of British aristocrats and their foreign cronies have been laundering this drug money since the days of the Opium Wars. That's probably true. But has EIR (the LaRouche bulletin) uncovered Britain's conspiracy to destroy the world, or have they merely found some loose connections between various high-flying transnational profiteers?"

Lyndon LaRouche is a homophobic American millionaire and indefatigable conspiracy theorist. Over the years, by deploying his wealth and the formidable energies of his followers across the globe, Mr LaRouche has tirelessly propagated a series of allegations against the House of Windsor. He believes that the Queen is a major international drug dealer while the Duke of Edinburgh's devotion to the World Wide Fund for Nature is a cover for his involvement in the assassination of John F. Kennedy and the Rwandan genocide. Although now in his 80th year, it is to be hoped that Mr LaRouche can make it across the Atlantic in the coming weeks. For Sir Michael Peat's inquiry into the allegations swirling around the Royal Family surely cannot be considered truly comprehensive until the troubling questions raised by Mr LaRouche have been thoroughly investigated.

My friend Francis Wheen is writing a book about the wave of paranoia that engulfed the world in the 1970s, from Harold Wilson to Watergate to Mrs Gandhi's emergency clampdown in India - working title, Strange Days Indeed (from a John Lennon song). One of the paranoid conspiracy theorists to emerge then was the American Lyndon LaRouche, who founded the serious-sounding magazine Executive Intelligence Review in 1974 to publish his nonsense. "Larouche once accused me of being in league with Times columnist Wiliam Rees-Mogg and the Queen in running the world cocaine trade and seeking to undermine the independence of the United States," Wheen tells me. According to LaRouche's theory, the Queen planned to flood the US with cocaine and bring it to such depths that it would beg to be a British colony. "Rees-Mogg is apparently her right-hand man, and when I wrote a teasing piece about this in The Guardian, LaRouche decided that I was in league with the Queen and Rees-Mogg." LaRouche's paranoid delusions also include his belief that a critical article about him in Take a Break magazine, in 1999, was "planted by Britain's MI6 ... and/or senior advisers to Queen Elizabeth I at Buckingham Palace".

Dreyfuss’s very first book, Hostage to Khomeini (which you can download here, on the website of the Worldwide LaRouche Youth Movement, along with other classic works like LaRouche’s autobiography and Dope, Inc., which posits that the Queen of England is an international drug runner), was published by New Benjamin Franklin House (a LaRouche outfit).

So I knocked off something on the fringe political candidate Lyndon Larouche, known for bizarre conspiracy theories. It proved more trouble than it was worth. The newspaper was inundated with threatening letters demanding retractions which, if not forthcoming, would prove that the FT was part of a conspiracy to assassinate Mr Larouche.

It is a popular myth that governments of countries run the world. However, the truth as exposed repeatedly by Lyndon LaRouche, the world's most accurate economic forecaster for over 50 years, is that an international financial oligarchy has for 3,000 years run a succession of empires that control national governments. The Persian Empire was replaced by the Roman Empire. That was then replaced by the Venetian Empire of the Middle Ages which morphed in the 18th century into the (misnamed) present "British" Empire. Who controls the money supply, controls the world. [..] All that stands in the way is the selfish needs of the powerful but dying British Empire to maintain its rule. Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband and world leader of the Malthusian green environmental movement, is the spokesman for the British Empire that does not believe in science and technology. Prince Philip has campaigned publicly for the last 40 years to reduce the population worldwide, now 6.8 billion and growing, to less than 2 billion barely existing under medieval conditions as herded animals. The banks, controlled by the British Empire, are now bankrupt and collapsing and the LaRouche movement is calling their bluff and exposing their weakness, hopefully before these banks do any further damage by passing on the burden and further impoverishing the population of America and Europe. -Mohd Peter, Kuala Lumpur

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.¹⁶[90]. In addition, "The Sexual Congress for Cultural Fascism" (2004) names the British Fabian Society as a potential source of international conspiratorial authority, citing the membership of prominent British democratic socialists and social democrats, especially withing the Labour Party and the British government.¹

In 1999, an article in the LaRouche-controlled Executive Intelligence Review accused senior advisers to the Royal family and MI6 of planning to assassinate him, after a British women's magazine called Take a Break published a critical article about him. [91]

On August 2, 1999, Debra Hanania-Freeman, national spokeswoman for LaRouche, issued the following statement about the alleged threat: "After consulting with security experts familiar with the modus operandi of British intelligence networks, we are treating the piece as a cover for an MI6 order, probably with direct backing from someone in the royal household, to assassinate Lyndon LaRouche.... The inflammatory article ... reflects a growing hysteria around Buckingham Palace, over the growing global influence of LaRouche's ideas and his continuing exposé of the British oligarchy...

"We are also passing the information on to the White House so they can assess whether the article also constitutes a threat to the security of President Clinton." [92]

LaRouche has also argued that Adolf Hitler was brought to power by the British; Menachem Begin's "policies are indistinguishable... from Nazi policies"; The Beatles were "a product shaped according to British Psychological Warfare Division specifications; and that rogue elements within the American military took part in, or planned, the September 11, 2001 attacks as part of a coup d'état.

Jews and the Holocaust

In 1978, the same year LaRouche's article cited The Protocols, the LaRouche group published Dope, Inc.: Britain’s Opium War against the U.S., which cited the Protocls and defended its authenticity, liking 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 the Queen of England runs drugs. When asked by an NBC reporter in 1984 about the Queen of England 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."

In addition, "The Sexual Congress for Cultural Fascism" (2004) names the British Fabian Society as a potential source of international conspiratorial authority, citing the membership of prominent British democratic socialists and social democrats, especially within the Labour Party and the British government.¹

"We are also passing the information on to the White House so they can assess whether the article also constitutes a threat to the security of President Clinton." [96]

LaRouche is known for alleging conspiracies by the British. This is based primarily on three books authored by members of his organization:

• Dope, Inc. by David Goldman, Konstandinos Kalimtgis and Jeffrey Steinberg, 1978 (ISBN: 0918388082): this book discusses the history of narcotics trafficking, beginning with the '''Opium''' War, and alleges that British interests 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, was the financial elite of the City of London.

• The Civil War and the American System by Allen Salibury, 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: 093348805X): 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.

LaRouche publications have also frequently referred to a speech by Henry '''Kissinger''' made at Chatham House in 1982, as evidence for a theory that Kissinger was a British agent. In this speech, Kissinger said that he preferred the post-war policy of Churchill over that of FDR, and stated that "In my White House incarnation then, I kept the British Foreign Office better informed and more closely engaged than I did the American State Department."Kissinger.html

The "British" conspiracy

LaRouche is known for alleging conspiracies by the British. LaRouche's 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. 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.

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. According to Jonathan Vankin and John Whalen, LaRouche is the "most illustrious" Anglophobe.

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 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. In an interview, LaRouche asserted that of the Queen, "Of course she's pushing drugs...that is in the sense of a responsibility: the head of a gang that is pushing drugs; she knows it is happening and she isn't stopping it."

• 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.

An article published in 1998 by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard said that LaRouche had claimed that the Queen was involved in the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales. The LaRouche publication EIR responded that Evans-Pritchard's article was "pure fiction", written in response to author Jeff Steinberg's appearance on the British ITV television program about the Diana controversy. Steinberg, however, "refused to rule out" the possibility that '''Prince Philip''' had ordered an assassination of Diana.

The Queen and drug trafficking

According to book critic and columnist Scott McLemee:

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 trafficking—though 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.

A 1998 editorial in LaRouche's Executive Intelligence Review denied that he had said the Queen was a drug trafficker, calling it a "bit of black propaganda," but 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 can be seen accusing the Queen of being involved in drug trafficking. He said: "Of course she's pushing drugs. That is, in the sense of a responsibility, the head of a gang that is pushing drugs, she knows it's happening and she isn't stopping it."

LaRouche added some novel variations on this theme, including Queen Elizabeth II on his list of conspirators.

[..]

In the 1980s LaRouche's political rhetoric and accusations grew more detached from generally accepted reality. Hitler had been a British agent. Queen Elizabeth was a drug runner. Menachem Begin was a Nazi. The Beatles were "a product shaped according to British Psychological Warfare Division specifications."

LaRouche has always been violently anti-British - a trait shared by many American isolationists - and has included Queen Elizabeth II, among others, in his list of conspirators.

"Saturday Night Live" in the mid-1980s had a series of skits called "Lyndon LaRouche Theatre", dramatizing some of the more outrageous claims made by LaRouche. For example, one skit shows Queen Elizabeth II as a drug dealer.

• LaRouche is mentioned in the Dave Barry book Dave Barry's Money Secrets:

"In 2004, for example, $800,000 of earmarked U.S.taxpayer dollars went to Lyndon LaRouche, a convicted felon and complete space loon who has been running for president since 1980, and who has claimed, among other things, that Walter Mondale was a Soviet agent and Queen Elizabeth II is a drug dealer.

One characterization of LaRouche's ideas, by one-time NBC reporter Mark Nykanen, was that "he believes the Queen of England pushes drugs"; this has been repeated by so many other commentators, that it is widely believed that LaRouche actually said it.

Dennis King claims to have found what he terms "euphemisms," "semantic tricks," and examples of "symbolic scapegoating" in LaRouche's writings which he claims contradict LaRouche's published condemnations[104] of Anti-Semitism. For example, King claims that LaRouche's published attacks on the neo-conservatives include a disguised form of anti-Semitism. King further says these examples bolster his argument (which also references certain images used in LaRouche publications) that LaRouche is a fascist whose world view secretly centers on anti-Semitism and includes a "dream of world conquest." He claims that certain photos of barred spiral galaxies and of Lawrence Livermore Laboratory plasmoid experiments which appeared in LaRouche's New Solidarity newspaper and Fusion magazine, are "reminiscent of the swastika" and of the Nazi "theory of spiraling expansion/conquest." He also points to a 1978 illustration in New Solidarity of Queen Elizabeth at the top of a Star of David -- and certain headlines (in more recent LaRouche publications) such as "How the Venetian Virus Infected and Took Over England" -- to bolster his argument that LaRouche's attacks on a "British" oligarchy are often coded attacks on international Jewry. This latter claim is disputed by author Daniel Pipes, who writes: "Dennis King insists that [LaRouche's] references to the British as the ultimate conspirators are really `code language' to refer to Jews. In fact, these are references to the British."

Former LaRouche follower Linda Ray, writing in In These Times, has commented on euphemistic LaRouchian methods of communicating. She recalls reading in New Solidarity about a subhuman oligarchical species centered in London: "Although I knew it did not make scientific sense, I presumed that it was a deep intellectual metaphor that was over my head." She says that years later, when she was shown the Star of David picture with Queen Elizabeth at the top, "I quickly replied...'It is just a graphics art symbol'--which I naively thought for years. But as soon as I said it out loud I realized that I sounded ridiculous. It was as if I was waking from a nightmare."

LaRouche has advocated a wide variety of conspiracy theories, including 9/11 conspiracy theories. He has said that the Queen of England is the "head of a gang that is pushing drugs" around the world, and LaRouche publications have charged that MI6 or senior advisers to the Queen have threatened to assassinate him.

John Rausch writes that EIR was part of LaRouche's plan in the 1970s to form a global intelligence network. He organized the network as if it consisted of news services and magazines, which allowed the LaRouche movement to gain access to government officials and others under press cover. EIR came to be known for its conspiracy theories. It has published inter alia that Queen Elizabeth II is the head of an international drug-smuggling cartel, and that the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 was the first strike in a British attempt to take over the United States.
