부시의 아주 새로운 푸들
수요일, 2007년 8월 29
에 의하여 Pepe Escobar 그는 그의 좋은 기도 및 그의 무지에 의하여 난공 불락으로 기갑 이었다. - Graham Greene, 조용한 미국 사람 파리, - 그림에서 이전 영국 국무총리와 가진 - 토니 블레어 지금 더 새롭고, 더 야위고, 더 비열한, 아드레날린 포장한 "프랑스제" 버전이 있다. 이라크, 블레어에 대통령 전쟁을 위한 조지 W 부시 그의 확고부동한 지원에 감사합니다는 부시의 푸들로 지구의 모든 구석에서 조롱되었었다. 지금 새로운 self-appointed 애완견은 프랑스 대통령이다 Nicolas Sarkozy. - 그가 프랑스에서 넓은 언급하는 때 과민한 "Sarkozy 전세계 포스트에서 200 괴상한 프랑스 대사의 연례 회의에 1세" - 지금 막 그의 첫번째 중요한 외국 정책 연설을, 발음했다. 현재 백악관에서 접전하는 아무 시간도 그에 의하여 걸리지 않으며 이란 demonization 캠페인을 신 보수 승진시켰다. Sarkozy의 수사학의 뒤에 "신중하고" "확고한" 대에 관하여 헛소리하는 프랑스에 있는 신 단점 그리고 그들의 ilk는, 주로 아첨꾼 매체 플러스, 명백하게 즉시 geopoliticians와 더불어 그것을, 사랑했다. 그는 - 국제 연합' 국제 원자력 기관 (국제 원자력기구) Hamadan 절묘한 양탄자의 더미의 밑에 숨겨지은 하나나 둘개 발견에 직면하여 있었다 처럼 이란 핵폭탄이 "용납하기 어려운"일 것이라고 말했다. Sarkozy는 더군다나 이란 반대 제재에 찬성하여, 그러나 이슬람교 공화국이 이란에는 핵 확산 금지 조약의 밑에 추구하는 권리가 있는, 그것의 핵 풍부 프로그램을 중단하는 사건에서 말하게 기꺼이 하고. 물질을 토론하게 이렇게 이란은 기꺼이 하는 서쪽을 위한 양도할 수 없는 권리를 포기해야 한다. Sarkozy는 이미 "파국적인" 대안을 짜맞추는 시장 점유를 화폐로 주조했다: "이란의 이란 폭탄, 또는 폭격." Sarkozy는 지금 공식적으로 미국 천둥을 결합하고 이란이 면에 의해 해방된 번개는 모두가 "모든 선택권 당연한 일로 생각하는 백악관, 펜타곤, 공화당원, 민주주의자 및 법인 매체 의 테이블에" 대본 있다. 국제 원자력기구가 착실한 진전을 이란의 원자력 계획에 오해를 밖으로 다림질하고, 저 효력에 이해 서명하기에 나가기 상태에서, 새로운 것 casus belli du jour 공격을 위해 이란은 Shi' 이라크에 있는 ite 게릴라 죽이기 미국 군인 돕고 있다 이다. 따라서 백악관의 이란 혁명가의 제시한 지적은 엘리트 그룹에 전쟁 선언과 동등한 테러리스트 차림새로 군단을 - 감시한다. 그의 부분을 위한 Sarkozy는 핵 정면에 재 공격한다. Now that’s some real trans-Atlantic entente. Sarkozy said everything must be done to “prevent a confrontation between Islam and the West”. His idea of preventing confrontation is to antagonize Iran and - why not? - Turkey. Sarko stressed that the “only” option for Turkey’s accession talks with the European Union is a fuzzy partnership framed by a Mediterranean Union (which, he also stressed, should start by 2009). He remains absolutely against EU membership for Turkey. His vague proposal is to set up a “committee of wise men” to study where Europe is heading. The Istanbul daily Zaman tried to put on a brave face, stressing that even though Sarkozy prefers an association, he “will not be opposed” to new negotiations between the EU and Turkey. Sarkozy vaguely suggested that a possible solution to breach the West/Islam abyss would be for France to “help Muslim countries to have access to nuclear energy” (would Iran be included?). He did not say a word about the North Atlantic Treaty Organization fighting in Afghanistan; just that European meddling in Afghan affairs would be in vain if Pakistan “remained the refuge of Taliban and al-Qaeda”. Not only pontificating over the troubles of the Muslim world, Sarkozy also criticized a “certain brutality” by Russia and China in their thirst for energy in Africa - much to the delight of Washington. But Iraq, for Sarkozy, remains a “tragedy”. He had to take pains to stress that France “is and continues to be hostile to his war” - something that may distress Washington, but not as much as former president Jacques Chirac’s stubborn opposition to the war. The only solution in Iraq will be “political”, implying “a clear timetable for the retreat of foreign troops”. Here we have Sarkozy involuntarily joining Shi’ite leader Muqtada al-Sadr - and the Iranians. The Middle East is awash in so much grief that few in the region will bother to listen to what the new French mission civilisatrice amounts to - apart from the hard sell of Louis Vuitton bags to local elites. Meanwhile in Paris, relatively few voices are concerned over the Bush-Sarkozy lovefest - a measure of how Sarkozy, as former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi once did in Italy, exercises almost universal power over the French media (one of his former top advisers now is at the top at TF1, the private channel that subscribes to the Rupert Murdoch/Berlusconi school of mass television). The flashy Sarkozy has already been portrayed as the epitome of the new bling-bling right, which has replaced the defunct caviar left; his role models are Rupert “Fox” Murdoch and Bernard Arnault, the first fortune of France and owner, among others, of deluxe conglomerate LVMH. First a beaming Sarkozy met with Bush in Maine on August 11 during his tabloid-style holidays - complete with pirate Sarkozy invading a paparazzi boat. Then on August 19 he sent dashing Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner on a Baghdad tour. Kouchner - who was in favor of the war on Iraq in 2003 - has lost all the credibility he had as “the French doctor” who founded Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders). He’s now no more than a Sarkozy messenger boy. Not happy to be constantly yapping on the phone with his new pal, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Kouchner made notoriously skillful French diplomats blush in disgust when he told Newsweek that Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki had to go. Maliki demanded an apology; at least Kouchner was gentleman enough to acquiesce. Next month, Sarkozy goes back to the US, to attend the United Nations General Assembly. Not only is he eager to do anything to help Bush and “Condoleezza” in Iraq, he now goes all-out neo-con on Iran. After more than 100 days in power, he’s still immensely popular in France, frantically monopolizing the political spectrum on an around-the-clock basis. But he would be wise to spare a thought for what happens to hyperactive poodles that go against their voters’ wishes.
