Cheney desperate to attack Iran, World Cup offers pretext

Lyndon LaRouche issued a public warning on May 24 (PDF), that an ever-more desperate Bush Administration, led by Vice President Dick Cheney, is seriously planning a preventive military strike against Iran sometime between now and early July.

The warning is based on a series of reports from well-placed military and security sources in the United States and Europe, who point to a particular convergence of developments over this period.

First, European security sources have issued dire warnings of serious terrorist disruptions of the scheduled World Cup Soccer tournament, which takes place in a dozen German cities from early June through early July.

These widely publicized soccer events are believed to be targetted by so-called hooligan gangs, neo-Nazi youth, and possibly by “Islamist” organizations, according to these security specialists. LaRouche pointed out that all of these countergangs have strong ties to the same European Synarchist financial circles who financed the Mussolini, Hitler, Franco, and Vichy fascist organizations during the 1922-1945 period.

That's not all. Ahmedinejad himself may attend the tournament. This came up in the context of having him arrested for denying the Holocaust.

From a strictly legal perspective, Ahmadinejad should be arrested when he sets foot on German soil. As Israeli attorney Ervan Shahar noted in his petition to Germany's federal prosecution this past February, Ahmadinejad commits a felony under German law every time that he denies the Holocaust. Shahar requested that the prosecutors enforce German law and indict Ahmadinejad in abstentia. Doing so would force Germany to issue an international arrest warrant against the Iranian leader and so make him liable for arrest any time he stepped foot on European soil.

This is in addition to a number of signs that point to an imminent attack of Iran.

U.S. military and intelligence sources have also reported that, during the month of June, three American and one French naval aircraft carrier groups will be converging on Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf waters near Iran. Thus, military assets will be in place, during that time frame, to launch a short-notice attack, ostensibly in “retaliation” for terrorist actions which would be linked to the Tehran regime.

There was also a massive multinational WMDs exercise a few days ago - that too was in the vicinity of Iran.

LaRouche cited the growing turbulence in the international financial system as a further motive for such Synarchist circles to act now, to spread chaos throughout much of the planet—just as they did in similar financial collapse conditions during the 1930s.

“I know the desperate state of mind among the Shultz, Rohatyn, Cheney circles in Washington. I know, as do others, that they are seeking the first pretext for a preventive, unwarranted strike against Iran.

The confluence of events in June represents the kind of opportunity that, I fear, they will not be willing to pass up. Therefore, I would be remiss were I not to speak out publicly at this moment, warning that these madmen may be contemplating actions that would throw the entire planet into chaos and conflict..." [--Lyndon Larouche.]

“One is drawn to the parallel,” LaRouche continued,“with the Nazi invasion of France in 1940 . . . The cause of the 1940 fall of France was the presence, within France, of a Synarchist fifth column, associated with the Lazard sponsored Banque Worms circles.

“The security operations for the World Cup would be technically adequate and competent if the threats were coming exclusively from domestic sources, or even agencies like those behind the infamous 1972 Munich Olympics attacks. However, those capabilities are not geared to dealing with a fifth-column operation, of the sort being contemplated by Shultz, Rohatyn, Cheney, and their European Synarchist allies. No conventional defense is adequate to stopping that kind of assault.

“[T]he gravest danger to the world today comes from the Synarchist International—including Shultz, Cheney, and Rohatyn. They are seeking a Reichstag Fire or 9/11-type incident to give them the psychological leverage to launch their pre-planned attack on Iran. That can only be prevented by placing a very powerful public spotlight on their schemes, in advance. That is why I am speaking out today.”

Keep your eyes peeled, folks. These guys are cornered and any day now they're going to act - even if they pass up the World Cup.

UNLIKE 9/11, this time, we the people must catch them red-handed.
