Il reste que lorsqu'on est inconditionnellement fédéraliste, on a quand même le droit de tirer sur la cible qui reste de mise: les symboles propre à la monarchie que demeure encore et toujours le Canada. Ça donne des choses amusantes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cyberpresse.ca/article/20070613/CPOPINIONS05/706130620/6730/CPACTUALITES"&gt;Dubuc aujourd'hui&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Le lieutenant-gouverneur d'une province ne sert à rien. Son rôle est purement protocolaire. C'est un personnage public qui coupe des rubans, qui sanctionne des lois et signe des décrets, au nom de vieilles traditions, et qui ne détient aucun pouvoir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sur des subventions fédérales de 1,7 million en 10 ans reçues par l'ex-lieutenant-gouverneur, 700 000$ ne semblent pas être liés à sa fonction. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;C'est pas mal d'argent&lt;/span&gt;. Elle semble avoir considéré comme de la rémunération ce qui était des subventions pour ses activités professionnelles. Elle a également confondu, de façon systématique, sa vie publique et sa vie personnelle. Et c'est ainsi que les contribuables ont payé pour des fêtes de famille, des restos, des vacances de ski, des excursions de pêche ou des parties de golf.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scandale!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cyberpresse.ca/article/20070530/CPOPINIONS/705300699/6753/CPOPINIONS05"&gt;Dubuc il y a 2 semaines&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Combien vaut un Québécois? Combien faut-il d'argent pour acheter son vote ou le faire changer d'idée sur l'avenir de sa patrie à coup de messages publicitaires? Eh bien, le juge à la retraite Bernard Grenier, qui a remis hier son rapport tant attendu sur les dépenses illégales des forces fédérales lors du référendum de 1995, nous donne la réponse. C'est 12 cennes et demie!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le juge Grenier, après une analyse minutieuse, facture par facture, a identifié des dépenses de 11,6 millions de deux organismes financés par Ottawa, le Conseil de l'unité canadienne et de sa filiale politique, Option Canada. De ce total, il n'a pas 3,5 millions en dépenses illégales, mais plutôt 539460$, qui n'a pas, comme le voulait la loi québécoise, été comptabilisé dans les dépenses du camp du NON.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;C'est pas cher payé.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le gros de ces dépenses illégales se retrouve dans deux postes: des bénévoles prêtés au camp du NON qui étaient rémunérés indirectement, et des dépenses de sondages qui n'ont pas été comptabilisés. Des gestes répréhensibles ont donc été commis par des dirigeants de ces organismes. Un demi-million de dépenses illégales, c'est trop. C'est à condamner. Mais ce n'est pas avec un demi-million qu'on vole un référendum.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pétard mouillé!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-6172932191196905616?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/6172932191196905616/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=6172932191196905616&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/6172932191196905616'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/6172932191196905616'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/06/la-dure-vie-dalain-dubuc.html' title='La dure vie d&apos;Alain Dubuc'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7067813941418586065</id><published>2007-06-12T07:47:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-06-12T07:50:37.388-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bush'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ironie'/><title type='text'>Les albanais aiment GWB</title><content type='html'>Ils l'adorent, pour des raisons &lt;a href="http://tv.repubblica.it/home_page.php?playmode=player&amp;cont_id=10785&amp;fromplayer=10785&amp;stream=video&amp;showtab=Copertina"&gt;délicieusement révélatrices&lt;/a&gt;.

Bien sûr, il se trouve encore des gens pour dire que les québécois sont plus fins/gentils/tolérants que les américains, mais personnellement, je n'en crois plus un seul mot (et ce, même si les résultats pourraient différer). Bien sûr, il s'agit sans doute d'une mesure de l'acceptabilité sociale de l'intolérance des répondants de tel ou tel groupe (i.e. par ex. je dis que je voterais pour une femme parce je ne voudrais pas que les autres sachent que je ferais plutôt le contraire). Faut donc prendre le tout avec un grain de sel.

For the functions that people use most often, the 1986 vintage Mac Plus beats the 2007 AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+: 9 tests to 8! Out of the 17 tests, the antique Mac won 53% of the time! Including a jaw-dropping 52 second whipping of the AMD from the time the Power button is pushed to the time the Desktop is up and useable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also didn't want to overly embarrass the AMD by comparing the time it takes to install the OS vs. the old Mac. The Mac's average of about a minute is dwarfed by the approximately one hour install time of Windows XP Pro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is this to say that the Mac Plus is a better computer than the AMD? Of course not. The technological advancements of 21 years have placed modern PCs in a completely different league of varied capacities. But the "User Experience" has not changed much in two decades. Due to bloated code that has to incorporate hundreds of functions that average users don't even know exist, let alone ever utilize, the software companies have weighed down our PCs to effectively neutralize their vast speed advantages. When we compare strictly common, everyday, basic user tasks between the Mac Plus and the AMD we find remarkable similarities in overall speed, thus it can be stated that for the majority of simple office uses, the massive advances in technology in the past two decades have brought zero advance in productivity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's just plain crazy. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via &lt;a href="http://slashdot.org/"&gt;/.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-5529418548084366140?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/5529418548084366140/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=5529418548084366140&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5529418548084366140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5529418548084366140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/05/20-ans-dvolution-en-informatique.html' title='20 ans d&apos;évolution en informatique'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-4883093443779857502</id><published>2007-05-30T08:41:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-30T08:42:29.074-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='irak'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paul wolfowitz'/><title type='text'>News from the front</title><content type='html'>Via &lt;a href="http://waynemadsenreport.com/"&gt;Wayne Madsen&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;May 29, 2007 -- North Carolina Republican Rep. Walter Jones has a new job proposal for outgoing World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz. Jones says Wolfowitz should be sent to Iraq to be mayor of Baghdad since Wolfowitz and "the neo-cons" are responsible for the Iraq quagmire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the White House agrees to Jones' idea, Wolfowitz will have to be issued with adult undergarments. Wolfowitz was staying at Baghdad's Al Rashid Hotel on October 26, 2003 when insurgents launched a rocket at the hotel. A U.S. Army Colonel was killed in the 6:10 am attack and 15 other people were injured, including 11 Americans and one Briton.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A British journalist contacted this editor after the attack and said he witnessed Wolfowitz, shaken and in tears, running through the hotel lobby in his underpants with a blanket thrown over his head. The journalist also clearly saw that the seat of Wolfowitz's underpants was soiled with a very visible stain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-4883093443779857502?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/4883093443779857502/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=4883093443779857502&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4883093443779857502'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4883093443779857502'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/05/news-from-front.html' title='News from the front'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-5403089973249571864</id><published>2007-05-30T08:32:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-30T08:33:48.880-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='usa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mexique'/><title type='text'>Ce que les mexicains pensent des américains</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="left: 0px ! important;

Jerry Falwell rouses the most volatile of emotions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A small group of protesters gathered near the funeral services to criticize the man who mobilized Christian evangelicals and made them a major force in American politics -- often by playing on social prejudices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A group of students from Falwell's Liberty University staged a counterprotest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Campbell County authorities arrested a Liberty University student for having several homemade bombs in his car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The student, 19-year-old Mark D.

The devices were made of a combination of gasoline and detergent, a law enforcement official told ABC News' Pierre Thomas. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-8174290018658997557?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/8174290018658997557/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=8174290018658997557&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/8174290018658997557'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/8174290018658997557'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/05/larbitrarit-des-tiquettes.html' title='L&apos;arbitrarité des étiquettes'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7648056724488039594</id><published>2007-05-22T20:28:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-22T20:36:51.627-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bush'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='liban'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='terrorisme'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='balivernes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='syrie'/><title type='text'>Blowback, déjà?</title><content type='html'>Vous avez tous vu que, dans un camp de réfugiés palestiniens, &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6682129.stm"&gt;des combats ont éclaté entre une faction radicale sunnite et le gouvernement libanais&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Est-ce que vous vous souvenez de &lt;a href="http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/02/quand-seymour-parle.html"&gt;ce que disait Seymour Hersh&lt;/a&gt; l'hiver dernier?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2007/03/05/070305fa_fact_hersh"&gt;Je le cite&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided, in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has coöperated with Saudi Arabia’s government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The U.S. has also taken part in clandestine operations aimed at Iran and its ally Syria. A by-product of these activities has been the bolstering of Sunni extremist groups that espouse a militant vision of Islam and are hostile to America and sympathetic to Al Qaeda.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparemment, ils ont tout simplement oublié de s'en prendre au Hezbollah.

Islamistes = pas bon, bien sûr. Ce que l'on ne dit pas, c'est que les événements font partie d'une stratégie visant à mettre main basse sur les ressources pétrolières de cette partie de l'Afrique, le tout étant coordonné à partir de Djibouti. Comme &lt;a href="http://www.moonofalabama.org/2007/02/understanding_a_1.html"&gt;l'indique&lt;/a&gt; un des contributeurs sur &lt;a href="http://www.moonofalabama.org"&gt;MOA&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;While efforts to replace the popular Islamic Courts Union in Somalia with the warlord-led Transitional Federal Government (TFG) appear to be failing, the arrival of AFRICOM may bring more boots on the ground into that unstable, geostrategic nation. Especially now that TFG spokesman Abdirahman Dinari has dangled a carrot before foreign investors: "Somalia has a lot of oil, and our ministers have just approved a key exploration law to regulate how concessions are given out.... But what we need now is international support to restore security and build our nation, and we will be noting who helps us and who doesn't when these decisions are taken."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La chose a le mérite d'être claire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Toutefois, &lt;a href="http://africa.reuters.com/wire/news/usnBAN043236.html"&gt;on apprend que la capitale s'est maintenant vidée de plus de la moitié de sa population et que les combats ont fait quelque chose comme 1000 morts&lt;/a&gt;, y compris des civils (toujours dans le chemin ceux-là). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The March 29-April 1 battles prompted 1.4 million to flee their homes in the Somali capital, home to 2.4 million people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An earlier report by a local human rights group put the death toll at 381 civilians in what aid workers have called the worst fighting in Mogadishu for more than 15 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was sparked when Somali government troops and their Ethiopian allies began a disarmament drive that escalated into an offensive to flush out insurgents before a national reconciliation conference scheduled to take place on April 16.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jendayi Frazer, the top U.S. diplomat for Africa, urged the Somali government on Saturday to open up the political process to all Somalis who eschew violence and extremism. Diplomats fear a prolonged crisis will jeopardise security across the region.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frazer has accused Eritrea of trying to destabilise Somalia as a way of hurting arch foe and neighbour Ethiopia. Eritrea, which has held talks with a senior former Islamist who fled Somalia, denied the allegations in a statement on Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ethiopia said it was holding 41 people detained during fighting in Somalia after Human Rights Watch accused it, along with Kenya, the United States and the Somali government, of running a secret detention programme.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Business as usual.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-2442822254531959315?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/2442822254531959315/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=2442822254531959315&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2442822254531959315'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2442822254531959315'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/04/les-mchants-islamistes-part-43245.html' title='Les méchants islamistes, part 43245'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-3567198007405408715</id><published>2007-04-06T08:11:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-04-06T08:15:53.033-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='balivernes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religion'/><title type='text'>Dieu, soluble dans le beurre de pinottes</title><content type='html'>Après Louis Pasteur, les créationnistes invalident la &lt;a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%A9n%C3%A9ration_spontan%C3%A9e"&gt;théorie de la génération spontanée&lt;/a&gt; et génèrent spontanément des arguments invalides contre l'évolution.

term='religion'/><title type='text'>Charles Taylor et le prix Templeton</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.ledevoir.com/2007/03/15/134961.html"&gt;On a récemment encensé Charles Taylor&lt;/a&gt; pour le fait qu'il vient de recevoir le prix de la fondation Templeton (même &lt;a href="http://www.micheldumais.com/archives/2007/03/14/hnaurme-kolossal-gigantesque/"&gt;la blogosphère n'y échappe pas&lt;/a&gt;). J'aime bien Charles Taylor. Ses contributions, particulièrement en &lt;a href="http://www.luc.edu/depts/philosophy/tec/wren/taylor.htm"&gt;philosophie politique&lt;/a&gt;, ont été centrales aux récents débats sur la place de l'appartenance culturelle dans la sphère du politique. Je suis bien content de sa nomination à la Commission sur les accommodements raisonnables. Ce qui me plaît moins, c'est le fait qu'il ait accepté le prix de la fondation Templeton, fondation qui s'amuse à lancer de l'argent à la tête de sommités intellectuelles qui sont prêtes à dire n'importe quoi de positif à propos de la religion (pour reprendre l'expression de &lt;a href="http://richarddawkins.net/home"&gt;Richard Dawkins&lt;/a&gt;). Si vous ne le savez pas, la &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Templeton_Prize"&gt;fondation Templeton &lt;/a&gt;est dédiée à la "découverte de réalités spirituelles", i.e. à essayer par tous les moyens de faire croire que l'idée qu'il existe quelque chose comme un dieu est rationnellement fondée. Au-delà de la fraude intellectuelle évidente à la base d'une telle entreprise, la fondation a donné du fric à des luminaires humanistes tels &lt;a href="http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0526,ridgeway,65361,2.html"&gt;lui&lt;/a&gt; et &lt;a href="http://slate.msn.com/id/2090083/"&gt;elle&lt;/a&gt;. La fondation était si encoquinée avec les créationnistes fanatiques, qu'elle a &lt;a href="http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-letters4.2feb04,1,4960042.story?coll=la-headlines-business&amp;ctrack=1&amp;amp;cset=true"&gt;récemment été obligée de prendre ses distances avec eux&lt;/a&gt;, étant donnée la toxicité du mouvement en question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bref, y'a pas de quoi se réjouir. Si Taylor n&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Catholic-Modernity-Charles-Taylors-Marianist/dp/0195131614"&gt;'a jamais fait de secret de ses convictions religieuses&lt;/a&gt;, il devrait être beaucoup plus prudent lorsqu'approché par de tels organismes. J'ignore quelle influence pourrait avoir cette question sur les travaux de Taylor pour la Commission, mais les événements font qu'il faudra garder l'oeil ouvert.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-3825407122717357415?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/3825407122717357415/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=3825407122717357415&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/3825407122717357415'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/3825407122717357415'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/03/charles-taylor-et-le-prix-templeton.html' title='Charles Taylor et le prix Templeton'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-3578974764068954340</id><published>2007-03-15T07:21:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-03-15T08:07:59.972-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bêtise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='droite'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adq'/><title type='text'>Le caractère distinct de la droite québécoise</title><content type='html'>Les idées de Mario Dumont, lorsqu'elles ne bénéficient pas du &lt;a href="http://adqaction.com/media/ADQ_Programme.pdf"&gt;vernis apporté par la relecture&lt;/a&gt; ('tention lien vers un pdf), possèdent toutes une trame de fond commune. &lt;a href="http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/03/une-pense-pour-mario-dumont.html"&gt;Elles se basent sur le rejet d'un groupe de personnes comme charge émotive pour livrer le message&lt;/a&gt;. Un exemple? Faire "payer" les criminels pour les prisons. Bien sûr (et c'est aussi un point commun des politiques défendues par l'ADQ), lorsqu'on s'attarde sur la faisabilité de la chose, ça se gâte au point où on se demande si quelqu'un a vraiment réfléchi à la question. Toutefois, habituellement, la classe de personnes visées - les épouvantails de service - est constituée des fonctionnaires qui gèrent un service quelconque. Les commissions scolaires. Le réseau de la santé. Et ainsi de suite.&lt;br /&gt;Bien sûr, on ne dit pas que d'autres coupures et d'autres réformes sont en plein la chose dont le système n'a pas besoin; ça fait plus de vingt ans qu'on se livre à des coupures dans les services publics au Québec. Pensez-vous sérieusement qu'il reste du gras à couper? Non, il reste des services que la population considère comme essentiels dans lesquels il faudra couper si l'on veut réduire la taille de l'état pour vrai. Par ailleurs, à chaque fois qu'on se livre à des réformes de structure, ça prend au moins 5 ans avant que le système se restabilise. Pendant cette période, les gens qui y travaillent (et qui voient souvent leurs tâches être redéfinies pour la nième fois sans explication) s'occupent plus de retrouver leur équilibre que se concentrer sur leur travail. M'enfin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il reste que le fait de taper (encore) sur les fonctionnaires, c'est peut-être payant aux yeux d'un électorat mal informé, mais ça traduit quelque chose de beaucoup plus dangereux: la haine de la gouvernance, l'idée qu'un gouvernement et ses institutions, ça sert à rien. Si le thème du "small government " est commun à la plupart des partis de droite, la véhémence de l'ADQ face à celle-ci est plus forte que celle que l'on trouve chez les conservateurs de Stephen Harper. Son caractère distinct, c'est son rapprochement évident avec ce que l'on voit aux USA, avec Bush et le GOP. Si vous voulez mon avis, l'ADQ, c'est le programme Elvis Gratton par excellence. Le fait que les charges de Dumont aient dominé la campagne est directement responsable de ce &lt;a href="http://www.vigile.net/spip/article5213.html"&gt;sentiment de vide qui la caractérise&lt;/a&gt;. Et si vous vous voulez vous imaginer à quoi ressemblerait un gouvernement adéquiste, vous n'avez qu'à tourner votre regard vers le sud: un gouvernement qui se fout de ses responsabilités et qui est entièrement dédié, de par sa haine de la gouvernance, à rediriger l'argent des contribuables dans les poches de ses amis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C'est ça l'ADQ.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-3578974764068954340?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/3578974764068954340/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=3578974764068954340&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/3578974764068954340'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/3578974764068954340'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/03/le-caractre-distinct-de-la-droite.html' title='Le caractère distinct de la droite québécoise'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-1097341249945863594</id><published>2007-03-14T06:37:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-03-14T06:52:51.892-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plq'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adq'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pq'/><title type='text'>Pensées sur le débat des chefs</title><content type='html'>Qu'est-ce qui est arrivé avec Patapouf? Il avait l'air si fatigué, il souriait sans cesse sans raison. Il semblait très difficile pour lui de défendre son bilan. Il a semblé avoir un certain regain de vie vers la fin du débat, mais, somme toute, il était mou, suffisant et dénué de son aggressivité habituelle. Quant à Mario, comment se fait-il qu'après son éprouvant passage à TLMEP qu'il se soit aussi peu préparé à répondre aux objections basées sur ses prévisions budgétaires? Comment se fait-il qu'on ait pas corrigé ce qui semble être le pire défaut de l'ADQ: l'impression que le tout n'est pas très sérieux? Il n'avait clairement pas l'air de quelqu'un qui pourrait être premier ministre. Quant à Boisclair, c'est le gagnant. C'est vrai que les attentes étaient basses, mais il était le seul qui semblait être à la hauteur de ce que le débat exige de ses participants: de montrer que l'on peut être premier ministre.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-1097341249945863594?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/1097341249945863594/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=1097341249945863594&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/1097341249945863594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/1097341249945863594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/03/penses-sur-le-dbat.html' title='Pensées sur le débat des chefs'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-6490945276942503351</id><published>2007-03-12T15:49:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-03-12T15:51:04.005-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='balivernes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fox news'/><title type='text'>Fox News</title><content type='html'>Une liste d'images révélatrices en provenance de Fox.

WESLEY CLARK: Well, in a way. But, you know, history doesn’t repeat itself exactly twice. What I did warn about when I testified in front of Congress in 2002, I said if you want to worry about a state, it shouldn’t be Iraq, it should be Iran. But this government, our administration, wanted to worry about Iraq, not Iran.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I knew why, because I had been through the Pentagon right after 9/11. About ten days after 9/11, I went through the Pentagon and I saw Secretary Rumsfeld and Deputy Secretary Wolfowitz. I went downstairs just to say hello to some of the people on the Joint Staff who used to work for me, and one of the generals called me in. He said, “Sir, you’ve got to come in and talk to me a second.” I said, “Well, you’re too busy.” He said, “No, no.” He says, “We’ve made the decision we’re going to war with Iraq.” This was on or about the 20th of September. I said, “We’re going to war with Iraq? Why?” He said, “I don’t know.” He said, “I guess they don’t know what else to do.” So I said, “Well, did they find some information connecting Saddam to al-Qaeda?” He said, “No, no.” He says, “There’s nothing new that way. They just made the decision to go to war with Iraq.” He said, “I guess it’s like we don’t know what to do about terrorists, but we’ve got a good military and we can take down governments.” And he said, “I guess if the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem has to look like a nail.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I came back to see him a few weeks later, and by that time we were bombing in Afghanistan. I said, “Are we still going to war with Iraq?” And he said, “Oh, it’s worse than that.” He reached over on his desk. He picked up a piece of paper. And he said, “I just got this down from upstairs” -- meaning the Secretary of Defense’s office -- “today.” And he said, “This is a memo that describes how we’re going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran.” I said, “Is it classified?” He said, “Yes, sir.” I said, “Well, don’t show it to me.” And I saw him a year or so ago, and I said, “You remember that?” He said, “Sir, I didn’t show you that memo! I didn’t show it to you!” &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il reste donc un an et 3/4 pour attaquer la Syrie, l'Iran, le Soudan et la Lybie. Je crois qu'on peut laisser tomber la Lybie, puisque &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muammar_al-Gaddafi"&gt;Mohammar&lt;/a&gt; est devenu notre ami. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bonne chance les amis.

S'il y a quelque chose qui symbolise le vide sidéral derrière le programme du PLQ, c'est bien son bilan en santé. Transportez-vous lors de la précédente campagne. Charest nous annonçait alors en grande pompe l'abolition des régies de la santé. Bien sûr, pour les personnes qui ne connaissent pas l'organisation des soins de santé au Québec, la chose a l'apparence d'une idée de génie: "enfin, débarassons-nous de ces bureaucrates qui foutent rien et qui sont certainement responsables des maux du système". Or, la réforme n'en est une que de papier entête**: les régies se voient simplement donner un nouveau mandat, celui de procéder à l'intégration territoriale des établissements en santé. Fini "la gestion en silo", &lt;a href="http://www.autisme.qc.ca/nouvelles/docViewing.php?section=nouvelles&amp;amp;noCat=40&amp;noDoc=359"&gt;la 8e plaie d'Égypte, à en croire le barbu&lt;/a&gt;. Qu'est-ce qu'on fait? On intègre les directions des hôpitaux, des CHSLD et des CLSC avoisinants. On en profite aussi pour faire disparaître le terme "CLSC" pour le changer pour "installation". "Chéri, j'ai mal, vite à l'installation"! Super. Toutefois, le problème no.1 des québécois, c'est la porte d'entrée du réseau. Si tout le monde avait accès à un médecin de famille, on ne verrait plus les gens se précipiter dans les urgences pour des maux de tête. Or, lorsque vous fusionnez des hôpitaux (gros, 2e ligne) et des CL^h^installations (petits, 1ère ligne) ensemble, qui va dominer dans le partage du gâteau? Et si les CLSC se retrouvent avec les miettes, qu'en est-il de l'accès aux services de première ligne? Ils sont en meilleure posture?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La gestion en silo, ça peut se contrer de multiples façons. On a fait que renforcer le poids du curatif dans un système où il prend déjà toute la place, y compris dans la tête de la population. On a changé deux fois de papier entête dans les régies pour rien. On a tué (pas encore, du moins) le branding d'un établissement connu de tous. Mes félicitations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Les &lt;a href="http://www.gmfmontmagny.com/gmf/liste_GMF/liste_GMF.html"&gt;GMF&lt;/a&gt;?

Si Boisvert soulignait à juste titre que Boisclair n'incarne plus ce nationalisme de combat des générations précédentes de chefs du PQ, selon moi, c'est plutôt le fait que le vote xénophobe au Québec ne se range plus automatiquement derrière ce parti qui explique la chose. Si l'on assiste réellement à la naissance d'un parti qui exploitera ce problème - si Dumont troque une position moralement justifiable pour des gains politiques rapides - c'est &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;vraiment &lt;/span&gt;quelque chose comme la fin du PQ qui se dessine, dans la mesure où le parti a choisi ouvertement de se dissocier de ce vote au lendemain des propos de Parizeau en 1995.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ce n'est pas parce qu'on souhaite que le nationalisme québécois soit inclusif que tous les nationalistes québécois le seront.

C'est à ce point criant que Charest en est réduit à ressortir les &lt;a href="http://www.ledevoir.com/2007/02/26/132534.html"&gt;bons vieux trucs du passé&lt;/a&gt;.

Comme quoi l'exploitation de la torture peut prendre plusieurs formes. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un &lt;a href="http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/070219fa_fact_mayer"&gt;article du New Yorker sur Surnow&lt;/a&gt; (extraits):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;For all its fictional liberties, “24” depicts the fight against Islamist extremism much as the Bush Administration has defined it: as an all-consuming struggle for America’s survival that demands the toughest of tactics. Not long after September 11th, Vice-President Dick Cheney alluded vaguely to the fact that America must begin working through the “dark side” in countering terrorism. On “24,” the dark side is on full view. Surnow, who has jokingly called himself a “right-wing nut job,” shares his show’s hard-line perspective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although he is a supporter of President Bush—he told me that “America is in its glory days”—Surnow is critical of the way the war in Iraq has been conducted. An “isolationist” with “no faith in nation-building,” he thinks that “we could have been out of this thing three years ago.” After deposing Saddam Hussein, he argued, America should have “just handed it to the Baathists and . . . put in some other monster who’s going to keep these people in line but who’s not going to be aggressive to us.” In his view, America “is sort of the parent of the world, so we have to be stern but fair to people who are rebellious to us. We don’t spoil them. That’s not to say you abuse them, either. But you have to know who the adult in the room is.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, many prominent conservatives speak of “24” as if it were real. John Yoo, the former Justice Department lawyer who helped frame the Bush Administration’s “torture memo”—which, in 2002, authorized the abusive treatment of detainees—invokes the show in his book “War by Other Means.” He asks, “What if, as the popular Fox television program ‘24’ recently portrayed, a high-level terrorist leader is caught who knows the location of a nuclear weapon?” Laura Ingraham, the talk-radio host, has cited the show’s popularity as proof that Americans favor brutality. “They love Jack Bauer,” she noted on Fox News. “In my mind, that’s as close to a national referendum that it’s O.K. to use tough tactics against high-level Al Qaeda operatives as we’re going to get.” Surnow once appeared as a guest on Ingraham’s show; she told him that, while she was undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer, “it was soothing to see Jack Bauer torture these terrorists, and I felt better.” Surnow joked, “We love to torture terrorists—it’s good for you!”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Addendum 2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un autre extrait via Youtube:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3WCNc7JZ24k"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3WCNc7JZ24k" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-5470000384221544398?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/5470000384221544398/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=5470000384221544398&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5470000384221544398'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5470000384221544398'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/02/hilarion-lefuneste.html' title='Hilarion Lefuneste'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-2468638858967188208</id><published>2007-02-14T17:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-02-19T20:50:08.555-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bêtise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='réchauffement climatique'/><title type='text'>Les conspirations communistes</title><content type='html'>Il n'y pas de réchauffement climatique, parce que les Verts sont souvent alliés aux partis communistes dans les pays européens, et que les communistes ont certainement tort (ça me rappelle &lt;a href="http://apocalypsewatch.blogspot.com/2007/01/what-harper-really-thinks-about.html"&gt;quelque chose..&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il existe un Vert en Allemagne qui dit des stupidités.

En se faisant du capital politique sur le dos de la question de l'accommodement, Mario Dumont s'est vu comparé à Le Pen. Je me suis amusé à faire un petit exercice...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De la &lt;a href="http://communiques.gouv.qc.ca/gouvqc/communiques/GPQF/Janvier2007/16/c6157.html"&gt;déclaration &lt;/a&gt;de Mario sur la question:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;  De souche européenne de par l'origine de ceux et celles qui ont fondé le Québec, nos valeurs s'inspirent en premier lieu de notre tradition religieuse. Elles sont aussi le reflet de notre appartenance au continent nord-américain. Fruit de la Révolution tranquille et de la sécularisation de nos institutions, nos valeurs communes se sont actualisées et s'inscrivent aujourd'hui dans les grands courants de pensée occidentaux et reflètent notre ouverture sur le monde.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'ADQ propose aux Québécois un programme étoffé pour protéger ces valeurs communes et affirmer notre personnalité collective. Au premier chef, nous croyons qu'il est impératif de doter le Québec de sa propre constitution et d'y enchâsser nos valeurs communes. Ce geste fort et solennel permettrait à tous les Québécois de dire, dans un geste commun et rassembleur, qui nous sommes. Cela permettrait aussi aux autres nations de par le monde de saisir clairement la véritable nature de l'identité québécoise. C'est à mon point de vue, un geste symbolique certes, mais que nous nous devons de poser pour protéger et renforcer nos valeurs communes. L'ADQ propose également d'instaurer une citoyenneté québécoise, de moderniser notre système démocratique, d'enseigner davantage l'histoire à nos jeunes, de mieux accompagner les nouveaux arrivants, de donner un soutien accru à la culture et de renforcer le rayonnement du Québec à l'échelle internationale. Tous ces engagements issus du programme que l'ADQ a rendu public en décembre dernier tendent tous vers le même objectif qui est de renforcer notre identité collective.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Du &lt;a href="http://www.frontnational.com/doc_id_immigration.php"&gt;site du FN&lt;/a&gt; (c'est le vieux programme, mais bon):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;La seule procédure d’acquisition de la nationalité française désormais reconnue sera la naturalisation, laquelle suppose donc le désir de devenir français, désir exprimé sous la forme d’une demande expresse. Cette naturalisation ne pourra être obtenue qu’après vérification de l’assimilation du candidat, c’est-à-dire l’acquisition démontrée, par le candidat et ses proches mineurs, des valeurs spirituelles, des mœurs, de la langue et des usages qui fondent la civilisation française. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bien sûr, les problèmes sont différents en France et au Québec, mais cette obsession du "partage des valeurs" et de la profession de foi, elle est plutôt similaire chez le FN et maintenant l'ADQ. Assisterons-nous à la naissance de notre propre FN?

Or, depuis que les arguments souverainistes se limitent à la simple dénonciation du déséquilibre fiscal, c'est en plein dans ce bourbier stratégique que ses défenseurs se sont enfoncés. Si vous dites que la raison principale pour la souveraineté est de régler le déséquilibre fiscal, alors vous laissez entre les mains des personnes qui sont en mesure de le régler (le gouvernement fédéral) tout l'avantage de le faire à leur guise, au moment jugé opportun (ici, bien sûr, juste avant les élections provinciales). Ce problème ne fait que souligner les défauts du discours souverainiste depuis qu'il a été transformé par le pitch de vente de l'économisme néolibéral (i.e. la seule raison valable pour la souveraineté est de nature économique).

Suffocating,    electrocuting or drugging a suspect are all in a day's work. As Bauer -    played by the Emmy Award winner Kiefer Sutherland - tells one baddie: "   You are going to tell me what I want to know - it's just a matter of how    much you want it to hurt."  &lt;/p&gt;                                               &lt;p&gt; But while 24 draws millions of viewers, it appears some people are becoming a little squeamish. The US military has appealed to the producers of 24 to tone down the torture scenes because of the impact they are having both on troops in the field and America's reputation abroad. Forget about Abu Ghraib, forget about Guantanamo Bay, forget even that the White House has authorised interrogation techniques that some classify as torture, that damned Jack Bauer is giving us a bad name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-9139049958275142637?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://news.independent.co.uk/world/americas/article2264632.ece' title='La réalité, qui dépasse la fiction, qui dépasse la réalité'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/9139049958275142637/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=9139049958275142637&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/9139049958275142637'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/9139049958275142637'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2007/02/la-ralit-qui-dpasse-la-fiction-qui.html' title='La réalité, qui dépasse la fiction, qui dépasse la réalité'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-3863166701047228008</id><published>2007-02-12T12:34:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-02-12T12:33:54.643-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='irak'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='balivernes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='iran'/><title type='text'>Déjà vu all over again</title><content type='html'>Vous avez peut-être remarqué que l'on cherche de plus en plus à blâmer les iraniens pour les dégâts en Irak.

Je suis paresseux, alors voilà:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;ISG Report - Flowers And Sweets&lt;/h3&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Some random thoughts while reading through the &lt;a href="http://www.usip.org/isg/iraq_study_group_report/report/1206/iraq_study_group_report.pdf"&gt;Iraq Study Group Report&lt;/a&gt; (pdf) (all following page numbers refer to the PDF pagecount). I'll probably try to come up with some less random thoughts later, but don't want to miss to communicate the first impressions. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The situations is a terrible mess in all dimensions. At this blog we have in the past picked together pieces of the picture from various press accounts and blogs. But the public has had no overview of the situation and a comprehensive listing like available in the report will help to open some eyes. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; As an example of how underreported the situation really is the report notes on page 13:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The standard for recording attacks acts as a filter to keep events out of reports and databases. A murder of an Iraqi is not necessarily counted as an attack. If we cannot determine the source of a sectarian attack, that assault does not make it into the database. A roadside bomb or a rocket or mortar attack that doesn’t hurt U.S. personnel doesn’t count. &lt;strong&gt;For example, on one day in July 2006 there were 93 attacks or significant acts of violence reported. Yet a careful review of the reports for that single day brought to light 1,100 acts of violence.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;     &lt;p&gt; The report does call for more unity in the government and blames a lot on Maliki and sectarian forces within the government (p19).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Iraqi people have a democratically elected government that is broadly representative of Iraq’s population, yet the government is not adequately advancing national reconciliation, providing basic security, or delivering essential services.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;  There is this note that obviously is in conflict with recent press reports (p25):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are roughly 5,000 civilian contractors in the country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Washington Post reported yesterday: &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/12/04/AR2006120401311.html"&gt;Census Counts 100,000 Contractors in Iraq&lt;/a&gt;. So what is it???&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; How not to spend money effectivly (p26):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Congress has been generous in funding requests for U.S. troops, but it has resisted fully funding Iraqi forces. The entire appropriation for Iraqi defense forces for FY 2006 ($3 billion) is less than the United States currently spends in Iraq every two weeks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; As for outsite medling in Iraq, the Iranian influence, according to the report clearly runs through al-Hakim's Badr corps, while the Sadr-movement is described as nationalistic. Also noteable (p47): &lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Funding for the Sunni insurgency comes from private individuals within Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States, even as those governments help facilitate U.S. military operations in Iraq by providing basing and overflight rights and by cooperating on intelligence issues.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; While the report notes the total number of Iraqis that have fled the country (1.8 million plus 1.6 internally displaced) and talks about the burdon this has put on Jordan (700,000 refugees), when talking about Syria, neither the numbers of refugees there nor any burden is mentioned. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sovereign&lt;/em&gt; Iraq shall only have command over its own forces if it behaves as the U.S. tells it behave (p78).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The transfer of command and control over Iraqi security forces units from the United States to Iraq should be influenced by Iraq’s performance on milestones.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; The report calls for much more embedded U.S. troops within Iraqi forces (p89)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Such a mission could involve 10,000 to 20,000 American troops instead of the 3,000 to 4,000 now in this role.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; At the same time it notes the problem that I have &lt;a href="http://www.moonofalabama.org/2006/12/lost_because_of.html"&gt;pointed out&lt;/a&gt; a few days ago. (p110)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;All of our efforts in Iraq, military and civilian, are handicapped by Americans’ lack of language and cultural understanding. Our embassy of 1,000 has 33 Arabic speakers, just six of whom are at the level of fluency. In a conflict that demands effective and efficient communication with Iraqis, we are often at a disadvantage. There are still far too few Arab language– proficient military and civilian officers in Iraq, to the detriment of the U.S. mission.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There simply are not enough translators to embed so many U.S. troops into Iraqi forces. How can you expect them to teach each other and/or fight together if they simply can not talk to each other?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; One also wonders what 1,000 embassy personal are doing all day when they only have six reliable interfaces with Iraqis. But maybe the number is wrong here (see "missing" contractors above). &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The report names some conditions that would have to be met for including Iran and Syria into talks. The attitude is roughly the same than Bush/Cheney have shown all along (p70).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our limited contacts with Iran’s government lead us to believe that its leaders are likely to say they will not participate in diplomatic efforts to support stability in Iraq. They attribute this reluctance to their belief that the United States seeks regime change in Iran.&lt;br /&gt;Nevertheless, as one of Iraq’s neighbors Iran should be asked to assume its responsibility to participate in the Support Group. An Iranian refusal to do so would demonstrate to Iraq and the rest of the world Iran’s rejectionist attitude and approach, which could lead to its isolation. Further, Iran’s refusal to cooperate on this matter would diminish its prospects of engaging with the United States in the broader dialogue it seeks. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is no word of taking back "regime change", but the Iranians are "rejectionists"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;On Syria there are mostly threats but also the recommendation of negotiation over the the Golan heights and of negotiations between the Palestinians and Israel. But each time the Palestinians are named as negotiating partner the wording includes a caveat (p72):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;This commitment must include direct talks with, by, and between Israel, Lebanon, Palestinians (those who accept Israel’s right to exist), and particularly Syria&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;This caveat obviously exludes the elected Palestinian government and will be used to sabotage any negotiation attempt even before it starts. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; The most important recommendation is on page 104:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;RECOMMENDATION 63:&lt;br /&gt;• The United States should encourage investment in Iraq’s oil sector by the international community and by international energy companies.&lt;br /&gt;• The United States should assist Iraqi leaders to reorganize the national oil industry as a commercial enterprise, in order to enhance efficiency, transparency, and accountability.&lt;br /&gt;• To combat corruption, the U.S. government should urge the Iraqi government to post all oil contracts, volumes, and prices on the Web so that Iraqis and outside observers can track exports and export revenues.&lt;br /&gt;• The United States should support the World Bank’s efforts to ensure that best practices are used in contracting. This support involves providing Iraqi officials with contracting templates and training them in contracting, auditing, and reviewing audits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The Study Group has been assured that the Iraqi government and population will great the help of Mr. Wolfowitz in managing their oil contracts with flowers and sweets."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-4247003879236890659?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/4247003879236890659/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=4247003879236890659&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4247003879236890659'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4247003879236890659'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/12/le-groupe-dtude-sur-lirak.html' title='Le Groupe d&apos;étude sur l&apos;Irak'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-2318467668496781359</id><published>2006-12-06T09:40:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-12-06T09:41:43.643-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blog'/><title type='text'>Temps mort...</title><content type='html'>Je suis en blitz de fin de rédaction de thèse.

Mais mon étonnement est grand de constater à quel point la vieille garde du PLC est complètement déconnectée des réalités du terrain politique sur lequel les prochaines élections vont se jouer. Le pire des candidats a été choisi. Le PLC va disparaître du Québec, ou, du moins, va avoir d'énormes difficultés à garder le contrôle de ses 13 sièges. Pour le fédéraliste québécois moyen, le choix devra se faire entre les politiques d'extrême-droite de Harper et l'inanité condescendante de Dion. En fait, clairement, c'est comme si Duceppe et Harper avaient choisi leur candidat de rêve. Que dire du fait que tout ça a été motivé par les bonnes vieilles positions anti-Québec du PLC? Le PLC n'a jamais réalisé que cette position l'a complètement sorti du Québec, et que cette chute a été amorcée dès le lendemain du rapatriement de la constitution. Le PLC n'a jamais réalisé que les élections successives de Chrétien étaient entièrement tributaires de la division de la droite. Le PLC, dont l'avant-dernier chef se targuait d'être un grand pragmatique s'est complètement empêtré dans l'idéologie du "let's stare down the separatists". Un  long séjour dans l'opposition les fera peut-être réfléchir. Pas que je regrette ce qui leur arrive. Mais, un gouvernement majoritaire conservateur, ça, ça fait peur.

Well, the stuff coming out of there, from what I gather, is really much more to the point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BLITZER: So what's the conclusion as far as how much time the world has before Iran actually has a bomb? HERSH: The new study didn't say that. What it said is that we do a lot of very good things. We have tremendous people in the field, tremendous capability. We can do things that I don't write about and nobody should write about. We do very good technical things, and we can't find, the new assessment says we could not find, the CIA says there's no evidence that Iran is doing anything that puts them close to a bomb. There's no secret program of significant bomb making.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BLITZER: The Israelis have a different assessment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HERSH: Absolutely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BLITZER: They think the Iranians may be within a year of getting to the threshold of having a point of no return, if you will, from having a bomb. When I was there in July, I had briefings. That's what they suggested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HERSH: They've been saying that, as you know, for five or ten years, one year. The fact is, the Israelis have come up with new human intelligence. I write about this in the article. Sort of the counter-CIA assessment. They've come up with an agent inside Iran. They have more than one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    And this agent is, who's been reliable, so the Israelis claim in the past, who now says the Iranians are secretly working on making an actual trigger for a bomb. Even though they may not have any specific — we don't have any specific evidence of a facility where they're doing this work, the Israelis say, yes, they are. They're getting ready to start detonating a weapon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    And once they get the fissile material, the enriched material. Now, that information is being handled pretty much by the White House and various offices in the Pentagon. And the CIA isn't getting a good look at the Israeli intelligence. It's the old word, stovepiping. It's the president and the vice president. It's pretty much being kept in the White House.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BLITZER: They'd like to get more access to this Israeli agent, is that what you're saying?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HERSH: Well, of course the people in the CIA want to know who he is. They want to know, obviously. But they certainly want to know what other evidence does he have of actual making a warhead. This is the internecine war, fight that's going on, the same fight, by the way, we had before Iraq.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'&lt;a href="http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/061127fa_fact"&gt;article&lt;/a&gt; de Hersh au New Yorker.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-4937940712610327397?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/4937940712610327397/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=4937940712610327397&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4937940712610327397'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/4937940712610327397'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/when-seymour-speaks.html' title='When Seymour speaks..'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-2331250912211331843</id><published>2006-11-16T11:02:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-16T11:16:16.548-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='propagande'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fox news'/><title type='text'>Every time [insert witty remark], the terrorists win!</title><content type='html'>Fox News s'est fait prendre en flagrant biais "objectif" dans un mémo interne, demandant à ses employés d'activement chercher chez les "insurgés" irakiens des déclarations de joie débordante à la constatation des succès démocrates aux dernières élections.

Imaginez maintenant que vous cherchez à combler un poste au &lt;a href="http://www.dhs.gov/index.shtm"&gt;DHS&lt;/a&gt;; qui serait en mesure de vous aider? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via &lt;a href="http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article2637.htm"&gt;Information Clearing House&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;(March 17) You will be happy to learn that the former head of the KGB (the secret police of the former Soviet Union), General Yevgeni Primakov, has been hired as a consultant by the US Department of Homeland Security. Do you think he will share his expertise in "security" to prepare US citizens for domestic internal passports under the pretense of fighting the never-ending "War on Terrorism"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CAPPS II is the name of the new program which is technically under the auspices of the US Department of Transporation, but that's only technical and the only reaosn they did that was to use the Transportation Department's budget to buy the computer hardware and software they need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The way it works is you give them your credit card and they slide it thorough like you would in a store and then they hit a button and the monitor reads: CAPPS II, SS CTF. The SS CTF evidently stands for State Security Citizen Threat File. But it has nothing to do with the Department of Transportation. It goes directly to a division, which has been established between the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and the CIA and several other federal agencies. This is a new division, referred to as the Office of Internal Security, which is coordinating the effort to establish citizen threat files on every US citizen. It will be a huge database including credit files, medical files, political and religious affiliation, military history, attendance at anti-government rallies,etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The newsclip didn't point out what information is being accessed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only thing they'll tell you is they're going to access your credit history, but like the guy giving the interview said they will be accessing a whole lot more. They just don't tell you what it is. When the Department of Homeland Security was asked about it, they wouldn't say but replied that it would defeat the purpose if we told you what it was we were looking for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No announcement will be made to the public about what information exactly is being accessed or exactly how much information or what type of information is going to be included in each citizen's security threat file.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I liked about this segment is that they interviewed General Yevgeni Primakov, who is now a consultant to the Department of Homeland Security along with General Alexander Karpov.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Primakov was laughing about it because he's getting paid a big fee to do it. He doesn't care, of course. Primakov speaks beautiful English, as you would expect a former head of the KGB to do. When he was asked what is this CAPPS II program really about, because obviously even "terrorists" could have credit ratings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Primakov said that this is one of the steps now being employed along with NICA and new identity upgrade features which are coming to your driver's license. It is being used to get the people used to new types of documentation and carrying new types of identity cards pursuant to the United States instituting a formal policy of internal passports.And he actually used the words "internal passports."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's like he said and he was pretty knowledgeable. When the NICA (National Identity Card Act) gets passed, the Posse Comitatus Act gets overturned, a few other pieces of legislation yet to be proffered get passed, the White House will have more control over the American people than the Kremlin had over the Russian people when Stalin was alive. He said that and then he laughed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Primakov finds funny are what he calls these "right wing flag wavers" that were so anti-communist and now they're supporting a state policy of internal passports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The irony is deafening.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-5530265202155059068?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/5530265202155059068/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=5530265202155059068&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5530265202155059068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5530265202155059068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/yevgeni-primakov.html' title='Yevgeni Primakov'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-8204731805732238662</id><published>2006-11-12T12:15:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-12T12:16:59.195-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blogger'/><title type='text'>Grr.

Toutefois, &lt;a href="http://waynemadsenreport.com/"&gt;Wayne Madsen&lt;/a&gt; avance que le dégel s'étendra aussi à la Syrie et au Hezbollah, et que l'assassinat de Hariri, qu'on a cherché à placer sur le dos des Syriens à la seconde où la chose s'est produite, sera plutôt blâmé sur &lt;a href="http://www.globalpolicy.org/intljustice/wanted/boutindex.htm"&gt;Victor Bout&lt;/a&gt;, un trafficant d'arme russe aux connections israéliennes extensives, qui a rendu plusieurs &lt;a href="http://www.globalpolicy.org/intljustice/wanted/2004/1021bout.htm"&gt;bons services ces dernières années&lt;/a&gt;. Si vous trouvez que le blâme tombe un peu trop près d'Israël, vous n'êtes sans doute pas seul. Les réalistes américains sont ceux qui ont le plus résisté aux sirènes israéliennes à Washington ces dernières années, menaçant même Barak de couper les vivres au régime s'il ne cessait pas la colonisation des territoires occupés.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ceci dit, est-ce que le changement de garde provoquera un dernier effort afin de frapper l'Iran ou la Syrie? Dans la mesure où les USA sont &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;out of the picture&lt;/span&gt;, les espoirs sont maintenant tournés vers Israël.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.thelastoutpost.com/site/1338/default.aspx"&gt;Last Outpost&lt;/a&gt; dit (et vous en faites ce que vous en voulez):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Washington, D.C.,: “ My brother-in-law is a professional military officer, stationed in the Washington area and from him I learned over lunch today that Israel has finally determined to launch what they consider to be a preemptive military strike against Iran’s capacity to manufacture and, most especially, to deliver an atomic weapon against Israel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was told that Israel is desolated by the neutering of Bush’s ability to support this attack.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress is now seen as a block to Bush’s militant plans and so the decision is being formulated not only in Tel Aviv but also in Washington to “materially assist” an Israeli attack with satellite intelligence, very sophisticated weaponry and high level intelligence sharing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;American troops are not to be involved but Bush and Cheney are planning to do everything possible to “actively support” this action.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This sort of story has been circulating around the corridors of power here for years but now, I am firmly assured, it appears to be reality. Israel attacked once before on this sort of provocation and is now going to do it again. We have agreed to supply certain tactical nuclear rocketry capable of being launched from aircraft that have a miniature atomic warhead, capable of extensive localized damage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since Israel is in no position to launch a ground invasion, the aim is to so disrupt both the government in Tehran and the suspected areas where any possible missiles could be launched against Tel Aviv in the possibility of an Iranian attack against Israel when a fanatic supporter of Israeli ambitions like Bush is not in office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In spite of his loss of Congressional power, Bush can still back such a move and nothing Congress can do could stop him.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Je vous invite aussi à lire &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/this_world/5409816.stm"&gt;l'article de la BBC&lt;/a&gt; annonçant un documentaire sur le sujet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merci à &lt;a href="http://www.moonofalabama.org/2006/11/another_weekend.html#comments"&gt;MOA &lt;/a&gt;pour l'inspiration.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-1646310461344354399?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/1646310461344354399/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=1646310461344354399&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/1646310461344354399'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/1646310461344354399'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/le-dsespoir-des-no-conservateurs.html' title='Le désespoir des néo-conservateurs'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-2672911204998273422</id><published>2006-11-10T11:51:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-10T14:44:43.152-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='israël'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='guerre'/><title type='text'>Des pensées pour Israël</title><content type='html'>&lt;blockquote&gt;«Il est remarquable que le racisme fasse partie de tous les colonialismes, sous toutes les latitudes. Ce n’est pas une coïncidence : le racisme résume et symbolise la relation fondamentale qui unit colonialiste et colonisé. Il consiste d’abord en une série de négations. Le colonisé n’est pas ceci, n’est pas cela. Jamais il n’est considéré positivement ; ou s’il l’est, la qualité concédée relève d’un manque psychologique ou éthique… Que peut-il lui rester, au terme de cet effort obstiné de dénaturation ? Il n’est sûrement plus qu’un alter ego du colonisateur. C’est à peine encore un être humain. Il tend rapidement vers l’objet... Ce qu’est véritablement le colonisé importe peu au colonisateur… Une mitraillade dans une foule colonisée lui fait hausser les épaules. D’ailleurs, une mère indigène pleurant la mort de son fils, une femme indigène pleurant son mari, ne lui rappellent que vaguement la douleur d’une mère ou d’une épouse. Ces cris désordonnés, ces gestes insolites, suffiraient à refroidir sa compassion, si elle venait à naître. Porteur des valeurs de la civilisation et de l’histoire, il accomplit une mission : il a l’immense mérite d’éclairer les ténèbres infamantes du colonisé ». &lt;/blockquote&gt;                                                                                                                   &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; -Albert Memmi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via le &lt;a href="http://forums.lactualite.com/advansis/?mod=for&amp;act=dip&amp;amp;pid=3694&amp;tid=3694&amp;amp;eid=1&amp;so=1&amp;amp;ps=0&amp;amp;sb=1#comments"&gt;blogue de Vastel&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-2672911204998273422?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/2672911204998273422/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=2672911204998273422&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2672911204998273422'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2672911204998273422'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/des-penses-pour-isral.html' title='Des pensées pour Israël'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-8258613192650842319</id><published>2006-11-09T20:21:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-09T20:42:32.552-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='terrorisme'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='robert gates'/><title type='text'>D'autres révélations sur Bob Gates</title><content type='html'>J'ai déjà mentionné que Bob &lt;a href="http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/le-nouveau-secrtaire-de-la-dfense-aux.html"&gt;était indirectement li&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/le-nouveau-secrtaire-de-la-dfense-aux.html"&gt;é&lt;/a&gt; au scandale de l'Iran-Contra.

According to Zbigniew Brzezinski, former National Security Adviser under the Carter Administration, US involvement had begun long before the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan on December 27, 1979. (1) Brzezinski's revelations have been corroborated by former CIA Director Robert Gates in his memoirs From the Shadows, where he writes that US intelligence began sponsoring an Afghan rebellion in Afghanistan six months before Soviet intervention. (2)&lt;p&gt; According to Jane's Defense Weekly, the ISI operatives in contact with al-Qaeda had received assistance from "American Green Beret commandos and Navy SEALS in various US training establishments." Over 10,000 mujahideen were "trained in guerilla warfare and armed with sophisticated weapons." By 1988, Jane's reports that "with US knowledge, Bin Laden created Al Qaeda (The Base): a conglomerate of quasi-independent Islamic terrorist cells in countries spread across at least 26 countries." But in the meantime, "Washington turned a blind eye to Al-Qaeda." (3)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;Ce passage est cité du rapport &lt;a href="http://www.house.gov/mckinney/20050722transcript.pdf"&gt;9/11 Commission, One Year Later&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doit-on s'attendre aussi à un dégel avec les Talibans?

On sait aussi qu'il a joué un certain rôle dans l'&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_contra"&gt;Iran-Contra-Gate&lt;/a&gt; (mais non, l'affaire n'est pas ainsi nommée en son honneur). Sa nomination traduit un certain nombre de constats:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;a href="http://select.nytimes.com/2006/11/09/opinion/09dowd.html?hp"&gt;Papa est fâché de ce que fiston a fait avec la présidence&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.

Like those of many other Iran/contra figures, the statements of Gates often seemed scripted and less than candid. Nevertheless, given the complex nature of the activities and Gates's apparent lack of direct participation, a jury could find the evidence left a reasonable doubt that Gates either obstructed official inquiries or that his two demonstrably incorrect statements were deliberate lies.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-2434107699395372745?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/2434107699395372745/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=2434107699395372745&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2434107699395372745'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/2434107699395372745'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/le-nouveau-secrtaire-de-la-dfense-aux.html' title='Le nouveau secrétaire de la défense aux USA'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7874629537316525928</id><published>2006-11-09T09:05:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-09T09:08:50.911-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bush'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bêtise'/><title type='text'>GWB.

In that time, the Swiss have received no assistance, or even a reply, a spokesman for the prosecutor said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Swiss authorities are asking for additional assistance from U.S. authorities, but we haven't gotten an answer so far," Mark Wiedmer, press secretary for the Swiss attorney general's office, said in response to a reporter's inquiry. "We are confident the American authorities will provide the information we need."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The appeals were directed to the Justice Department, which has a bilateral agreement with Switzerland on sharing information in international criminal cases, and to the State Department's undersecretary for arms control and international security, according to officials knowledgeable about the requests. Calls to both agencies yesterday were not returned.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The problem was brought to light yesterday by a U.S. weapons expert who is advising Swiss prosecutors on the technical aspects of the Khan case. In testimony before a subcommittee of the House International Relations Committee, David Albright said the U.S. government had "ignored multiple requests for cooperation" in prosecuting members of the Khan network.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-5515165906819904936?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/05/25/AR2006052501938_pf.html' title='Weapons of Mass Hypocrisy'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/5515165906819904936/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=5515165906819904936&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5515165906819904936'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/5515165906819904936'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/weapons-of-mass-hypocrisy.html' title='Weapons of Mass Hypocrisy'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7545010666355286779</id><published>2006-11-06T17:44:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-06T17:47:46.875-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bêtise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='charest'/><title type='text'>L'ultime victoire de Jean Charest</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/2619/2130/1600/Clip_15.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/2619/2130/400/Clip_15.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;À la suite de quoi, il sera sans doute canonisé.

Merci encore à &lt;a href="http://moonofalabama.org/"&gt;MOA &lt;/a&gt;pour l'inspiration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.d-n-i.net/lind/lind_10_31_06.htm"&gt;Bill Lind&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;, à propos d'une guerre US/Iran:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;What I fear no one forsees is a substantial danger     that we could lose the army now deployed in Iraq. I have mentioned this     in previous columns, but I want to go into it here in more detail because     the scenario may soon go live.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;Well before the second Iraq war started, I warned     in a piece in &lt;i&gt;The American Conservative&lt;/i&gt; that the structure of     our position in Iraq could lead to that greatest of military disasters,     encirclement. That is precisely the danger if we go to war with Iran.    &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;The danger arises because almost all of the vast     quantities of supplies American armies need come into Iraq from one     direction, up from Kuwait and other Gulf ports in the south. If that     supply line is cut, our forces may not have enough stuff, especially     fuel, to get out of Iraq. American armies are incredibly fuel-thirsty,     and though Iraq has vast oil reserves, it is short of refined oil products.     Unlike Guderian’s Panzer army on its way to the Channel coast in 1940,     we could not just fuel up at local gas stations.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;There are two ways our supply lines from the south     could be cut if we attack Iran. The first is by Shiite militias including     the Mahdi Army and the Badr Brigades, possibly supported by a general     Shiite uprising and, of course, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (the same     guys who trained Hezbollah so well).&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;The second danger is that regular Iranian Army divisions     will roll into Iraq, cut our supply lines and attempt to pocket us in     and around Baghdad. Washington relies on American air power to prevent     this, but bad weather can shut most of that air power down.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;Unfortunately, no one in Washington and few people     in the U.S. military will even consider this possibility. Why? Because     we have fallen victim to our own propaganda. Over and over the U.S.     military tells itself, “We’re the greatest! We’re number one! No one     can defeat us. No one can even fight us. We’re the greatest military     in all of history!”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;It’s bull. The U.S. armed forces are technically     well-trained, lavishly resourced Second Generation militaries. They     are being fought and defeated by Fourth Generation opponents in both     Iraq and Afghanistan. They can also be defeated by Third Generation     enemies who can observe, orient, decide and act more quickly than can     America’s vast, process-ridden, Powerpoint-enslaved military headquarters.     They can be defeated by strategy, by stratagem, by surprise and by preemption.     Unbeatable militaries are like unsinkable ships. They are unsinkable     until someone or something sinks them.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;If the U.S. were to lose the army it has in Iraq,     to Iraqi militias, Iranian regular forces, or a combination of both     (the most likely event), the world would change. It would be our Adrianople,     our Rocroi, our Stalingrad. American power and prestige would never     recover.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Les préparations en vue d'une victoire démocrate vont bon train. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.wonkette.com/politics/dick-cheney/shreddin-with-dick-211028.php"&gt;Wonkette&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spotted on 10/19, by an eagle-eyed Wonkette reader: The Mid-Atlantic Shredding Services truck making its way up to the Cheney compound at the Naval Observatory.  &lt;p&gt;Fun fact: Mid-Atlantic Shredding Services has been &lt;a href="http://www.sdbmagazine.com/news/news.asp?ID=3608&amp;SubCatID=18&amp;amp;CatID=6"&gt;contracted by the Secret Service for our Executive Branch’s record-not-keeping needs.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;blockquote&gt;The present contractor providing Pickup &amp; Destruction of Sensitive Waste Material services is Mid Atlantic Shredding Services and the current rate is $0.095 cents per lbs.&lt;/blockquote&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You better get crackin’, Dick — that evidence won’t destroy itself!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.correntewire.com/fire_at_fort_meade_was_it_digital_shredding"&gt;Corrente&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;It would be irresponsible not to speculate. Buried in the B section of today’s WaPo, &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/20/AR2006102001641.html"&gt;here’s an interesting little tidbit&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;b&gt;A Fort Meade building that houses Army counterintelligence activities was heavily damaged yesterday in a stubborn and spectacular&lt;/b&gt; [accelerants?] &lt;b&gt;six-alarm fire&lt;/b&gt; that burned for hours, generating thick clouds of smoke that streamed and billowed in a brisk wind.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The blaze broke out on the Army post in Anne Arundel County and 3:05 p.m. …. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;On a late Friday afternoon. A 5:00 Horror&lt;a href="http://www.correntewire.com/glossary#term115" title="5:00 Horror: Bad news (for the Republicans) that's released at 5:00 PM on a Friday so that nobody has a chance to process it&amp;mdash;except the people who released it, who start spinning it immediately, hoping that their version will take before the Sunday talk shows."&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.correntewire.com/modules/contributed/glossary/glossary.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;? Hmmm…&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;And what burned, we may ask?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; … and continued to burn well after 10 p.m. The fire damaged upper portions of the sprawling three-story building, which is &lt;b&gt;headquarters to the 902nd Military Intelligence Group and houses several contractors&lt;/b&gt;, officials said. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://thewall.civiblog.org/rsf/big_brother_talons_on_you.html"&gt;The 902nd monitors domestic dissent&lt;/a&gt;—you know, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covert_operation"&gt;people like the Quakers&lt;/a&gt;. Translation: If Bush, newly empowered by the so-called MCA&lt;a href="http://www.correntewire.com/glossary#term1450" title="MCA: The McCain Pro-torture and Incumbent Protection Enabling Act, informally known as the &amp;quot;Military Commissions Act.&amp;quot;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.correntewire.com/modules/contributed/glossary/glossary.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, decides to disappear American citizens into the camps, the 902nd would be the go-to organization.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Makes you wonder what the contractors were doing, too…. Presumably something that the Army wasn’t allowed to do, at least until the so-called MCA was passed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; The cause of the blaze, which apparently began on the peaked roof of the red-brick building, was not immediately known and was under investigation. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hmmm…. “Not known,” eh?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; Another official said &lt;b&gt;most&lt;/b&gt; of the documents in the damaged section are locked in fire-resistant containers and backed up elsewhere. Nothing lost at the building would adversely affect national security, said Donald Shiles, director of the Technical Counterintelligence School at Fort Meade. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hmmm… “Most,” eh? &lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt; Peterson said the fire was largely contained to the building’s attic, which is used as office space by the intelligence group. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hmmm…. So, it’s looking like the data that was not part of the locked-away “most” would have been whatever they had out and were working on in their office space, yes? Translation: &lt;i&gt;Current operations&lt;/i&gt;?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Yes, indeed. Hmmm….&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L01414211.htm"&gt;Le nouveau membre de la coalition Olmert:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Israel Radio said new cabinet minister Avigdor Lieberman recommended the army adopt what the radio called the "Russian model in Chechnya", conjuring up images of massive destruction during Russian operations in the volatile Russian region.&lt;/blockquote&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,,1934382,00.html"&gt;Ne le dites pas à Céline Galipeau&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Tony Blair's most trusted military commander yesterday branded as 'cuckoo' the way Britain's overstretched army was sent into Afghanistan.&lt;p&gt;The remarkable rebuke by General the Lord Guthrie came in an Observer interview, his first since quitting as Chief of the Defence Staff five years ago, in which he made an impassioned plea for more troops, new equipment and more funds for a 'very, very' over-committed army.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The decision by Guthrie, an experienced Whitehall insider and Blair confidant, to go public is likely to alarm Downing Street and the Ministry of Defence more than the recent public criticism by the current army chief Sir Richard Dannatt. 'Anyone who thought this was going to be a picnic in Afghanistan - anyone who had read any history, anyone who knew the Afghans, or had seen the terrain, anyone who had thought about the Taliban resurgence, anyone who understood what was going on across the border in Baluchistan and Waziristan [should have known] - to launch the British army in with the numbers there are, while we're still going on in Iraq is cuckoo,' Guthrie said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.balkanalysis.com/2006/10/31/damage-control-firm-takes-quiet-interest-as-former-us-general-is-charged-with-turkish-profiteering"&gt;Comment créer des marchés émergents&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A major Kurdish diaspora group is calling for the head of a former American general recently dispatched to Turkey. The general, Joseph Ralston, has been accused of using his new role as ‘special envoy’ to the Turkish government to ensure that American defense giant Lockheed Martin – of which Ralston is a board member – will get to continue supplying the Turkish military with fighter planes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;On 26 October, the &lt;a href="http://www.kncna.org/docs/main.asp"&gt;Kurdish National Congress of North America&lt;/a&gt; issued a press release demanding “the immediate resignation” of the former USAF General Ralston as the Bush administration’s point man on the Turkish campaign against Kurdish guerrillas in the country’s southeast.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Two months earlier, with little fanfare, the State Department had announced Ralston’s appointment to a position that does indeed seem curiously unique- “Special Envoy for Countering the Kurdistan Worker’s Party (PKK).” Although there are scores of simmering conflicts in countries around the globe, there are not so many to which Washington sends an official military advisor to oversee the fighting.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Indeed, as the Kurdish group discloses, “Ralston’s appointment came at a time when Turkey was finalizing the sale of 30 new Lockheed Martin F-16 aircraft (approx. $3 billion) and as Turkey was due to make a decision on the $10 billion purchase of the new Lockheed Martin F-35 JSF aircraft. The sale for the F-16’s was approved by Congress in mid-October and Turkey’s decision in favor of the F-35 JSF was announced on October 25, shortly after Ralston’s recent stay in Ankara, ostensibly to counter the PKK.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Ralston’s affiliations with American companies and Turkish-American lobby groups that stand to gain financially from his current activities were exposed in the press release:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“General Ralston is a vice-chairman of The Cohen Group, a private lobby firm with close ties to the American Turkish Council (ATC) and Lockheed Martin. According to an article in the Washington Post in May of this year, Lockheed Martin acknowledged it was a client of The Cohen Group, and paid some $500,000 to The Cohen Group for services rendered in 2005. General Ralston is also a member of the 2006 Advisory Board of the ATC, as well as a current member of the Board of Directors of Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin is also a member of the ATC.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The American-Turkish Council, it should be remembered, is the high-powered lobbying interest in Washington which has been fingered as an intermediary and incubator for espionage within the FBI from Turkish employees. It “wasn’t the sort of group just anyone could belong to,” pointed out former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds, who was fired in spring 2002 after complaining about infiltration of the FBI and blocking of criminal investigations into related individuals.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A corrupted Air Force man and former military procurement officer to Turkey and the Central Asian states, Douglas Dickerson, and his Turkish-born wife Can Dickerson, tried unsuccessfully to recruit Edmonds into their espionage ring and promised membership in the hallowed ATC as one of the rewards for cooperation. &lt;a href="http://antiwar.com/news/?articleid=2920"&gt;According to Edmonds&lt;/a&gt;, Dickerson implied this to her husband, averring that “…all you have to do is tell the [ATC] where your wife works and what she does, and they will let you in &lt;em&gt;like that&lt;/em&gt;.” All the translator had to do was keep the FBI off the trail of suspects under investigation for espionage regarding defense-related issues. When she refused, the Dickerson’s became hostile and threatening.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Kurdish supporters are not angry just because Ralston and his corporate cronies might make money from yet another international arms deal. They further charge that even though the Kurdish rebel group has extended an olive branch to the Turkish government, the US and Turkey have no interest in making peace, as peace would in the long-term lessen the justifications for Turkey to maintain such a large military arsenal- and thus be bad for ‘business.’ The Kurds suspect that, in order for American defense companies to keep bringing home the bacon, the conflict should sizzle for as long as possible- regardless of how many Kurdish civilians and Turkish servicemen die.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Indeed, while a unilateral PKK ceasefire went into effect on October 1, Ralston assured the Turks that there would be no compromises, no negotiations, and even no communications with the Kurdish rebels- in other words, business as usual. Speaking before the Eurasian Strategic Research Center (ASAM) in Istanbul, &lt;a href="http://www.thenewanatolian.com/tna-16865.html"&gt;Ralston said&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“I want to be clear on this point: The U.S. will not negotiate with the PKK. We will not ask Turkey to negotiate with the PKK. And I pledge to you that I will never meet with the PKK.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-9141784746188248672?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/9141784746188248672/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=9141784746188248672&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/9141784746188248672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/9141784746188248672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/11/lectures-diverses.html' title='Lectures diverses'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7581294353747166891</id><published>2006-10-30T10:20:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-10-30T10:22:02.576-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='irak'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='guerre'/><title type='text'>Letter from Irak</title><content type='html'>&lt;blockquote&gt;"Rather than attempting to sum up the last seven months, I figured I'd just hit the record-setting highlights of 2006 in Iraq. These are among the events and experiences I'll remember best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Worst Case of Deja Vu — I thought I was familiar with the feeling of deja vu until I arrived back here in Fallujah in February. The moment I stepped off of the helicopter, just as dawn broke, and saw the camp just as I had left it ten months before — that was deja vu. Kind of unnerving. It was as if I had never left. Same work area, same busted desk, same chair, same computer, same room, same creaky rack, same... everything. Same everything for the next year. It was like entering a parallel universe. Home wasn't 10,000 miles away, it was a different lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most Surreal Moment — Watching Marines arrive at my detention facility and unload a truck load of flex-cuffed midgets. 26 to be exact. We had put the word out earlier in the day to the Marines in Fallujah that we were looking for Bad Guy X, who was described as a midget. Little did I know that Fallujah was home to a small community of midgets, who banded together for support since they were considered as social outcasts. The Marines were anxious to get back to the midget colony to bring in the rest of the midget suspects, but I called off the search, figuring Bad Guy X was long gone on his short legs after seeing his companions rounded up by the giant infidels."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via &lt;a href="http://www.moonofalabama.org/2006/10/wb_tell_me_lies.html#c24552237"&gt;MOA&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-7581294353747166891?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/7581294353747166891/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=7581294353747166891&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/7581294353747166891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/7581294353747166891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/10/letter-from-irak.html' title='Letter from Irak'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-6608243876726449232</id><published>2006-10-27T10:50:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-10-27T10:59:57.003-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Le Québec, profondément</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WIB-YZ3m4wA"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WIB-YZ3m4wA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_tnXo13dsgE"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_tnXo13dsgE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via &lt;a href="http://www.martinbreton.com/2006/10/26/fidel-lachance/"&gt;Brem&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4zBmR7dpYCU"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4zBmR7dpYCU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="400" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-6608243876726449232?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/6608243876726449232/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=6608243876726449232&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/6608243876726449232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/6608243876726449232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/10/le-qubec-profondment.html' title='Le Québec, profondément'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-7753312352350406873</id><published>2006-10-26T11:42:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-10-26T12:03:02.837-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='élections'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fraude'/><title type='text'>Comment voler une élection</title><content type='html'>Maintenant que l'on sait, au Québec,&lt;a href="http://news.google.ca/news/url?sa=t&amp;ct=fr_ca/6-0&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;fp=4540f2d069c0961a&amp;ei=3uVARf-TDa_qaMvN_HI&amp;amp;url=http%3A//www2.canoe.com/infos/quebeccanada/archives/2006/10/20061025-082207.html&amp;cid=0"&gt;

Il semble que dans le pays phare de la démocratie (tm), lorsque le président de la compagnie &lt;a href="http://akratique.blogspot.com/2005/11/le-fiasco-du-vote-lectronique.html"&gt;promet d'élire un candidat à l'avance&lt;/a&gt;(GWB, who else), c'est pas si grave que ça. Aujourd'hui, sur Ars Technica, on en remet, en publiant un guide sur &lt;a href="http://arstechnica.com/articles/culture/evoting.ars"&gt;"Comment voler le vote  électronique en piratant les machines Diebold"&lt;/a&gt;. Le guide est très simple. Le plus drôle, c'est qu'en conclusion, l'auteur illustre ses propos en montrant &lt;a href="http://www.bbvforums.org/forums/messages/1954/44242.html"&gt;comment on avait véritablement volé le vote au Tennessee&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.wreg.com/Global/story.asp?S=3668281"&gt;dans une élection cet été&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un extrait:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The picture that I've painted here about the state of the American electoral system is bleak and depressing. Even more depressing is the fact that absolutely nothing can be done to address these vulnerabilities in any substantial way before the November midterm elections. Really, the only thing that citizens can do for the midterms is get involved by volunteering at their local precinct and keeping their eyes and ears open. Watch everything, and record everything where possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now, the only thing standing in the way of the kind of wholesale undetectable election theft that this article has outlined is the possibility that DREs were forced onto the public too rapidly for election thieves to really learn to exploit them in this cycle. There's always a gap between when a security vulnerability is exposed and when it's exploited, so let's all hope and pray that November 7 falls within that time window.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the medium- and long-term, it is just as much of a certainty that many of these vulnerabilities will be exploited as it is that, say, major new Windows security vulnerabilities will be exploited. Indeed, the stakes in stealing an election are much, much higher than they are in the kind of petty hacking that produces today's thriving ecosystem of PC viruses and trojans. I've outlined the way (already widely known) in this article, and I don't doubt that someone, somewhere, has the will to match that way. Unless security practices and electoral procedures are upgraded and standardized across the country, and unless meaningful auditability is mandated (preferably a voter-verified paper trail) nationwide, then the probability of a large-scale election theft taking place approaches certainty the longer we remain vulnerable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In conclusion, let me summarize what I hope you'll take home with you after reading this article and thinking about its contents:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Bits and bytes are made to be manipulated; by turning votes into bits and bytes, we've made them orders of magnitude easier to manipulate during and after an election.&lt;br /&gt;* By rushing to merge our nation's election infrastructure with our computing infrastructure, we have prematurely brought the fairly old and well-understood field of election security under the rubric of the new, rapidly evolving field of information security.&lt;br /&gt;* In order to have confidence in the results of a paperless DRE-based election, you must first have confidence in the personnel and security practices at these institutions: the board of elections, the DRE vendor, and third-party software vendor whose product is used on the DRE.&lt;br /&gt;* In the absence of the ability to conduct a meaningful audit, there is no discernable difference between DRE malfunction and deliberate tampering (either for the purpose of disenfranchisement or altering the vote record).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, it's worth reiterating that optical scan machines are vulnerable to many of the same exploits as the DREs on which this article focuses. Optical scan machines do leave a paper audit trail, but that trail is worthless in a state (like Florida) where manual audits of optical scan ballots are not undertaken to clear up questions about the unexpected returns from certain precincts. I've been told that such audits are now prohibited in Florida by law in the wake of the 2000 voting scandal.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17451579-7753312352350406873?l=akratique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/feeds/7753312352350406873/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17451579&amp;postID=7753312352350406873&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/7753312352350406873'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17451579/posts/default/7753312352350406873'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://akratique.blogspot.com/2006/10/comment-voler-une-lection.html' title='Comment voler une élection'/><author><name>L'Akratique</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17451579.post-5960635541149804865</id><published>2006-10-25T15:20:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-10-25T15:28:01.466-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Prêts pour le petit moustachu avec l'uniforme brun</title><content type='html'>Selon &lt;a href="http://www.galluppoll.com/content/?ci=25135"&gt;Gallup&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://media.gallup.com/POLL/Releases/pr061025ciii.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://media.gallup.com/POLL/Releases/pr061025ciii.gif" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comme le souligne &lt;a href="http://billmon.org/archives/002883.html"&gt;Billmon&lt;/a&gt;, 14% de la population américaine considère que &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;les républicains sont trop à gauche&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14% de 300 000 000 = 42 000 000.
