Lyndon LaRouche and his EIR magazine frequently discussed the Israel “Breakaway Ally” syndrome as a dangerous British war-policy for the entire Southwest Asia region. This remains highly relevant today. In a statement issued Oct. 12, 2001, ["The World To Be Seen from Sunday”[(https://larouchepub.com/pr_lar/2001/011012_world_on_sunday.html), LaRouche wrote:
“As far back as Henry A. Kissinger’s reign as U.S. Secretary of State, during late 1974 and the beginning of 1975, the leadership of our association was studying a U.S. strategic option which bore the name of `breakaway ally’ syndrome. In the case that that syndrome erupted into practice, Israel would apparently break free of its customary Anglo-American leash, to launch a mad-dog war against some neighboring Arab state, or states. Those in U.S. `breakaway ally’ Israel who would launch such a `preemptive’ war, would then say to the U.S., in effect: `We have started the war; now you are going to have to fight it!’
