The issue of survival for France after Paris' second terrorist mass murder in a year, was expressed by French President Hollande's going immediately and urgently into action, to force a Russia-France-United States alliance to destroy ISIS and al-Qaeda.
The issue of survival for Russia after the ISIS bombing of the Russian airliner over Syria, was expressed by President Putin's powerful speech to parliament in the military hall, evoking Russia's 15-year struggle to defeat domestic terror, and now international terror, enlisting every Russian to see himself or herself a "soldier" in that war.
The issue of America's survival now, has nothing to do with the electoral hullabaloo since the terrorist attack in San Bernardino. The issue, is the President Obama who insists on attacking and confronting Russia and China as enemies, and who hides and denies the evidence of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, London support of radical jihadism. The President Obama who ordered the U.S. "opening" to the Muslim Brotherhood since 2011; who since the overthrow and murder of Qaddafi has been driving toward an ultimate showdown with Russia and China, in which he thinks, suicidally, they will capitulate to regime-change anywhere he wills it.
EIR Founding Editor Lyndon LaRouche has called for Obama's removal from office since the Spring of 2009, identifying Obama's fatal "Nero" character as soon as he entered the White House.
LaRouche laid it out today:
Obama is now pushing the nation and the planet toward a thermonuclear confrontation which human civilization cannot survive. Nuclear weapons experts can see it, and are making public warnings. At least one U.S. Member of Congress can see it; Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii challenged Defense Secretary Carter with this Obama threat of nuclear war in the House Armed Services Committee. President Putin and the Chinese leadership certainly see it, and are taking every preparation, as well as every war-avoidance action.
On Wednesday a LaRouchePAC collaborator in the Midwest called his Congressman, briefed him, and told him Obama had to be removed using the 25th Amendment, immediately. The Congressman said he hadn't heard any discussion of that. The constituent replied, forcefully, "Then you start it." The Congressman, improbably, did that, and called the constituent back twice more to report how others in Congress had reacted.
That's one citizen. Multiply that. Change your thinking about your ability to help do, what's really right and necessary.
