Πολιτικές μυστικότητας των Μπους που μετασχηματίζουν τις ΗΠΑ. Κυβέρνηση

Σάββατο, 26η Απριλίου 2008

secrecy.jpgΑπό Sherwood Ross |

Πρόεδρος George W. Ο Μπους έχει μετασχηματίσει μια ανοικτή ομοσπονδιακή κυβέρνηση στην Ουάσιγκτον σε μια από τη «κυρίαρχη μυστικότητα,» μια διακεκριμένη αρχή στις επικοινωνίες και τα πρώτα δικαιώματα τροποποιήσεων λέει.

Από την εγκαινίασή του, ο Μπους έχει επιτηρήσει τις αλλαγές που προτείνουν «μια δραματική αύξηση της κυβερνητικής μυστικότητας, αρκετά πέρα από τη μυστικότητα που εμφανίζεται κατά τη διάρκεια της κυβέρνησης Clinton,» γράφει τη Susan Dente Ross, (καμία σχέση) ένας συνδυαζόμενος καθηγητής στο Edward R. Σχολείο Murrow της επικοινωνίας στο κρατικό πανεπιστήμιο της Ουάσιγκτον σε Pullman.

«Μέσω των εκτελεστικών απόψεων αντιπροσωπειών, εκτελεστικές διαταγές, νομικές αλλαγές, και επιθετική προσφυγή στο δικαστήριο, η διοίκηση των Μπους έχει περιορίσει αποτελεσματικά τη δύναμη FOIA (νόμος ελευθερίας των πληροφοριών) και έχει αντιστρέψει την υπόθεση ότι τα κυβερνητικά αρχεία πρέπει να είναι διαθέσιμα στη δημόσια απούσα αποδείξιμη απόδειξη που δείχνει ότι η μυστικότητα απαιτείται,» Ross γράφουν μακροπρόθεσμα την άποψη, ένα περιοδικό της άποψης που δημοσιεύεται από το σχολείο της Μασαχουσέτης του νόμου σε Andover.

«Η σκουπίζοντας επέκταση της διοίκησης της δύναμης της ομοσπονδιακής κυβέρνησης να ταξινομήσει τα αρχεία, και να τα κρύψει έτσι από τη δημόσια άποψη, αυξάνει τη σειρά των πληροφοριών που μπορεί να ταξινομηθεί και επεκτείνει τη διάρκεια ζωής τέτοιας μυστικότητας,» Ross λέει. Σημείωσε ότι:

# Ο Μπους έχει αυξήσει τον αριθμό ομοσπονδιακών αντιπροσωπειών που εγκρίνονται για να υποδείξουν τις πληροφορίες ως μυστικό και να τους απαλλάξουν από τη δημόσια κοινοποίηση.

# Το τμήμα ασφάλειας πατρίδας αφαίρεσε την ολόκληρη ταξινόμηση της αντιπροσωπείας της διαδικασίας πληροφοριών από τη δημόσια διερεύνηση. Στους γραμματείς» της υγείας και των ανθρώπινης υπηρεσιών και της γεωργίας και του διοικητή της αντιπροσωπείας προστασίας του περιβάλλοντος, έχει χορηγηθεί το δικαίωμα να ταξινομήσουν τις πληροφορίες «για λόγους της εθνικής ασφάλειας και της εθνικής υπεράσπισης.»

# Το αμυντικό τμήμα έχει υιοθετήσει μια νέα πολιτική που επιβάλλει τα ακριβή όρια στη συζήτηση όλης της «κρίσιμης έρευνάς της» από τη «φάση ιδέας» προς τα εμπρός.

# Ο Μπους έχει τοποθετήσει τα έγγραφά του, και εκείνους του πατέρα του, ο προηγούμενος Πρόεδρος, η «εξωτερική όψη το δημόσιο μάτι και έχει εξουσιοδοτήσει για να κρατήσει το συνέδριο στο σκοτάδι για τα θέματα νοημοσύνης.

# Bush has increased the authority of the Central Intelligence Agency to empower its director to block declassification of CIA information unless disclosure is authorized by the president.

# Bush has extended time that information can be kept classified from 10 to 25 years and this period may be extended even longer.

“Blanket closures of INS(Immigration and Naturalization Service) proceedings and absolute gags on disclosure of related information eviscerate the time-honored constitutional protection of open public trials,” Ross writes.

She noted the federal government “arrested and refused to identify hundreds of aliens who either may be connected to terrorism as material witnesses or who may have visa or other INS infractions.”

An INS directive issued promptly after September 11, 2001, mandated absolute closure of all deportation hearings in cases the agency determined to be of “special interest” to the war on terrorism, Ross said.

The INS judges could gag aliens from disclosing anything learned in closed proceedings and an INS regulation requires states and localities housing federal detainees to withhold all information about them.

Ross noted, though, a U.S. Court of Appeals judge struck down the INS closures and a U.S. District Court Judge in Washington ordered the Justice Department to disclose the names of more than 1,100 non-U.S. citizens detained at some point in connection with terrorism.

Ross asserts, “Legislation championed as essential to protect the nation against terrorist threats allows the federal government to spy on its citizens, to detain them in secret without charges, to prosecute them based on secret evidence, and to prohibit parties to the trial from discussing related information.”

Ross writes the merest perusal of some Bush initiatives shows it has reversed the presumption of open government: “Although the now prevailing presumption of closed government is masked in subtle nuances of language and interpretive guidelines, we may liken the shift to the sea change that would occur in our criminal justice system if we moved from a presumption of innocent until proven guilty to an assumption of guilty until proven innocent.”

Granting the Bush administration has imposed its sweeping secrecy policies in the name of national security, Ross contends this exchange is “unacceptable.”

“The trade-off, secrecy for security, is a sham,” she writes. “The citizenry gives up its vital check on abuse of government power and gains little in return.”“A shadow government that operates in secrecy,” Ross continues, “does not advance the security of its citizens. Ignorance is not security. Safety is not increased when citizens are blinded by government deception and distortion. Government does not better serve its electorate when it operates with impunity.”

    Here’s one Bush can ponder over:

    VETERANS LAUNCH NATIONAL EDUCATION EFFORT ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

    INDIANAPOLIS (April 28, 2008) – Crime, terrorism and dependency on scarce government dollars are some of the major reasons why the nation’s largest veterans organization is concerned about illegal immigration. So concerned, in fact, that The American Legion today began a nationwide outreach to alert Americans to the dangers posed by illegal aliens and the government’s reluctance to seriously address the issue.
    “American Legion members have served in the U.S. Armed Forces throughout the world so that Americans can feel safe at home,” said Marty Conatser, national commander. “We have seen Third World countries. We have seen poverty, political instability, disease and war. Today we see the threat that open borders present to our homeland.
    “With more than 14,000 posts and 2.7 million members, I am asking Legionnaires everywhere to start the national dialogue that needs to happen now,” Conatser said. “As a nation at war with operatives sworn to kill Americans, our government must shut down our open borders and take decisive action to address a crippling national problem.”

    Unlike the “A” in ACLU, the “A” in American Legion actually stands for American!
