La diff\u00e9rence est dans la qualit\u00e9 du dispositif, donc dans sa cr\u00e9dibilit\u00e9. Au temps de la Guerre froide, les organisations \u00e9taient \u00e0 caract\u00e8re culturel, elle s&rsquo;appuyait \u00e9videmment sur un argument universellement reconnu (la d\u00e9fense de la libert\u00e9 face \u00e0 l&rsquo;imp\u00e9rialisme sovi\u00e9tique) et \u00e9tait constitu\u00e9 souvent d&rsquo;intellectuels prestigieux (Arthur Koestler, Bertrand de Jouvenel, Raymond Aron, etc, <a class=\"gen\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dedefensa.org\/article.php?art_id=162\">voir notamment la recension du livre \u00ab\u00a0Who Paid the Piper ?\u00a0\u00bb<\/a>). Autre diff\u00e9rence importante : bien qu&rsquo;elles fussent subventionn\u00e9es par la CIA, ces organisations paraissaient, dans leur manifestation publique, \u00eatre sous seul contr\u00f4le de leurs membres europ\u00e9ens.

L&rsquo;id\u00e9e actuellement tr\u00e8s en vogue que l&rsquo;Europe de l&rsquo;est est la vraie amie de l&rsquo;Am\u00e9rique se traduit par le fait que, sur les 17 personnalit\u00e9s formant l&rsquo;Advisory Board, on trouve 9 personnalit\u00e9s des pays de l&rsquo;est (les 13 pays qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 ou vont \u00eatre admis dans l&rsquo;OTAN et dans l&rsquo;UE), tandis que les 18 pays non-US OTAN-UE n&rsquo;en comptent que 8. (Les deux nationalit\u00e9s les mieux repr\u00e9sent\u00e9es sont le Royaume-Uni et la Bulgarie, chacun avec 3 personnalit\u00e9s.) Pour l&rsquo;essentiel, il s&rsquo;agit d&rsquo;hommes ayant appartenu ou appartenant au complexe occidental de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale (gouvernement, militaires, experts).
