LaRouche To Hold International - - Memorial Day Webcast May 28

Democratic Party 2004 Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche issued a solemn statement inviting international leaders and the public to participate in his Memorial Day international webcast, which is being held Tuesday May 28, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Coming on the heels of the candidate's historic May 1 webcast, this follow-up event will be conducted to further the process of bringing together an international combination that can turn the world back from the precipice of global religious war, and a New Dark Age. In his May 9 statement, LaRouche, a World War II veteran, said: "After the close of the first of the two world wars of the last century, our republic committed itself to remember in perpetuity those who had fallen in battles. Let us remember them today.

"Thus, when I returned from the last world war, I passed the house of a boyhood friend, Leon, the sole companion of the aging grandparents who had raisd him. As I came up the sidewalk to a place by the front windows of that house, I saw a gold star in the window. I shall never forget that awesome moment.

"Let us therefore pledge, as President Abraham Lincoln did, that if government must send men to die in war, let the war end as quickly as possible, and let the leaders of our nation be assured in advance, that the citizen's sacrifice not be in vain. Let us pledge as much wisdom as we are capable of calling forth today, to that end."
