Un long article De Laura Rozen dans Mother Jones<\/em> (juillet-ao\u00fbt 2006) d\u00e9crit l’invraisemblable imbroglio des complots entre n\u00e9o-conservateurs, Iraniens plus ou moins en exil, agents plus ou moins secrets, etc., pour enfin parvenir \u00e0 une attaque des USA contre l’Iran. Cela dure, pour ce qui est de ce projet iranien, depuis fin 2001, avec l’Italie comme centre du complot permanent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tDeux personnages centraux, dont on entend souvent parler : Michael Ledeen et son pseudo-ami Manucher Ghorbanifar, trafiquant d’armes, Iranien exil\u00e9 ou pas, patriote ou pas en exil, redoutable raconteur d’histoires secr\u00e8tes et ma\u00eetre dans l’art de se faire subventionner par tel ou tel service am\u00e9ricaniste. A lire ce r\u00e9cit rocambolesque, on se demande comment la marche du monde est encore une affaire s\u00e9rieuse.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tIl est \u00e0 mettre \u00e0 l’actif de Ghorbanifar qu’il r\u00e9ussisse encore \u00e0 se faire consid\u00e9rer par certains comme un homme s\u00e9rieux. L’Iranien est tellement haut en couleur, tellement truculent dans son quintuple langage, dans ses fonctions officielles d’agent sextuple, qu’il finit par appara\u00eetre comme un \u00e9norme personnage comique, et qu’il mettrait bien les rieurs de son c\u00f4t\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tRencontre Rozen-Ghorbanifar : \u00ab Looking with his enormous mustache, balding pate, and cigar like a wheeler-dealer out of central casting, the 60-year-old Ghorbanifar lives with his family in Nice and maintains a Paris presence through an aging aide who happens to be Iran’s former minister of commerce. In conversation he is cajoling, flattering, with a glint of a sharper edge beneath. When you come to Paris, we will chat for hours, he told me. The intelligence he has given his American contacts has been 1 million percent accurate. For $20 million, he would open doors all over Tehran for his American paymasters. And so on.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tLa CIA ne l’aime gu\u00e8re. Elle a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 qu’on ne pouvait lui faire confiance. (Ce pourquoi les n\u00e9ocons<\/em> et le Pentagone continuent \u00e0 lui faire confiance.) Le passage o\u00f9 Rozen rapporte comment la CIA a appris \u00e0 ne pas lui faire confiance est irr\u00e9sistible. On peut faire l’hypoth\u00e8se que Ghorbanifar est la seule personne qui ait \u00e9t\u00e9 prise en flagrant d\u00e9lit de mensonge dans 13 des 15 r\u00e9ponses qu’elle a fournies au d\u00e9tecteur de mensonges de la CIA :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00ab Manucher Ghorbanifar, an arms dealer, intelligence peddler, and former military intelligence official in the Shah’s regime, had been a key figure in the Reagan-era Iran-Contra scandal, in which Washington secretly sold missiles to Iran’s Islamic rulers. Even before that, he had been so unreliable as a CIA informant that the agency had issued a burn notice directing agency personnel not to deal with him. When, in the midst of Iran-Contra, the CIA gave Ghorbanifar a polygraph test, he was deemed not to be showing deception on only 2 of the 15 questions his name and his place of birth.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 27 juin 2006 \u00e0 10H40<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Un long article De Laura Rozen dans Mother Jones (juillet-ao\u00fbt 2006) d\u00e9crit l’invraisemblable imbroglio des complots entre n\u00e9o-conservateurs, Iraniens plus ou moins en exil, agents plus ou moins secrets, etc., pour enfin parvenir \u00e0 une attaque des USA contre l’Iran.
