Returning to geopolitics and empire is Harley Schlanger of the LaRouche Organization and Schiller

Institutes. Welcome back to Geopolitics and Empire, Harley. Glad to be with you. It's been,

I think, three years since we last spoke. I hope all as well, how are things out where you're at?

Well, other than the fact that we may be drifting into a nuclear war,

uh, and Germany is trying to prepare to become war ready. Other than that, we're okay.

Well, yeah, things are, things are just peachy. Uh, otherwise. Before getting to that, though,

I wanted to give a shout out to the spooks listening to the podcast and specifically has to do with you and me.

You know, I talk to people from all walks.

I'm just an average American, European, Croatian, and now Mexican.

I was a professor.

And I just, you know, that's what you do when you study international relations.

You want to talk to everybody across the spectrum.

And so I've talked to conservatives, to libertarians, to leftists, to LaRouche people.

And just recently, I believe the spook state, the security state has been getting involved in alternative media, and they've been doing write-ups on people like myself, on other podcasters, on,

you know, folks such as yourself. So just for the fact I'm having a conversation with you

today, Harley, they're going to say I'm a Russian agent. And I just wanted to let them know that we can see you coming from a mile away that, you today, Harley, they're going to say I'm a Russian agent. And I just wanted to let them know that

we can see you coming from a mile away that you are, this is the spook state pretending to be

anonymous X accounts and websites. It's really clear what you're doing. But any comment on that?

Well, if you're outside of the mainstream bubble, you're immediately suspect.

And whether it's left or right, I mean, LaRouche for many years was called left wing, then right wing.

Even though I'm Jewish, I'm called an anti-Semite.

The Ukrainian committee to Combat Disinformation said that I'm on their list of information
