Abstract: Duggan, LaRouche and Anti-Semitism

On
27 March 2003, Jeremiah Duggan was alleged to have committed suicide
by throwing himself in front of cars. His body was found very near
to the offices of Lyndon LaRouche’s Executive Intelligence Review in
Hesse, Germany – from which it seems he may have been running.
Shortly before his death, Erica Duggan received two interrupted
phone calls, begging for rescue from Weisbaden, crying out that he
was frightened for his safety.

Both Erica and Hugo Duggan, Jeremiah’s parents, immediately asked
for a full investigation as a result. But instead, the German police
arbitrarily decided – immediately and without any medical opinion –
that this was a suicide.  They based their opinion on the words of
drivers casually interviewed at the side of the road and passed down
through a chain of officers, one undertaken without the
investigating officer actually writing down signed formal statements
from the witnesses.

For the last five years, all attempts to get a proper investigation
of the full circumstances surrounding this violent death have been
refused.  The case is currently on appeal in both the UK and Germ
high courts.

In
the days leading up to his death, Jeremiah told his mother that he
was attending an anti-war conference in Germany between 21 and 23
March 2003 at Bad Schwalbach, where he would learn more about
international politics.  Jeremiah was deceived into attending what
he thought was a legitimate political gathering at the Schiller
Institute, demonstrating against the Iraq War but what, in reality,
turned out to be a recruiting ground for Lyndon LaRouche’s
international network (hereafter the LaRouche Organization),
particularly the LaRouche Youth Movement (LYM, founded in 2000).

Upon denouncing the anti-Semitic conspiricism in the LaRouche
movement at the Schiller Institute – as will be shown, an endemic
feature of the LaRouche Organization – Jeremiah was found on a
forlorn roadside, hours later, having died while ‘in a state of
terror’.  This was the recorded conclusion of H.M. Coroner a
fortnight later, on 8 April 2003.  Yet despite this finding,
virtually no investigation of the Schiller Institute, nor the
wrongful death of Jeremiah Duggan, has been undertaken to date. 

To
facilitate such an overdue criminal inquiry into the incitement to
racial hatred –one which may have led to the wrongful death of
Jeremiah Duggan – this document will present evidence of LaRouche’s
systematic anti-Semitism as it contravenes German and EU Law.
