__ TOC __ John Rausch writes that the magazine emerged from LaRouche 's desire in the 1970s to form a global intelligence network . His idea was to organize the network as if it were a news service , which led to his founding '' The New Solidarity International Press Service '' ( NSIPS ) , incorporated by three of LaRouche 's followers in 1974 . According to Rausch , this allowed the LaRouche movement to gain access to government officials under press cover . As NSIPS 's funds grew , '' EIR '' was created . In the 1980s an annual subscription cost $ 400 . Nora Hamerman , an '' EIR '' editor , said in 1990 that the magazine had a circulation of 8,000 to 10,000 . She indicated the magazine was owned by the '' EIR '' News Service , but declined to say who owned the news service . An ad on a LaRouche website urged readers to subscribe . " As you will quickly discover , the '' Executive Intelligence Review '' is not an ordinary weekly news magazine . Every week , '' EIR '' runs unique political analyses , reports and interviews which you ca n't find anywhere else . " The magazine has published many controversial articles , including claims that Queen Elizabeth II is the head of an international drug-smuggling cartel , that another member of the British royal family killed Roberto Calvi , the Italian banker who died in London in 1982 , and that the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 was the first strike in a British attempt to take over the United States . In 1997 it published review of the book " La face cachee de Greenpeace " ( The hidden face of Greenpeace ) , which claimed that Greenpeace " is an irregular warfare apparatus in the service of the British oligarchy " . The magazine occasionally expands its articles into book-length pieces , which have included '' Dope , Inc : The Book that Drove Henry Kissinger Crazy '' ( 1992 ) and '' The Ugly Truth about the ADL ''
