Newt Gingrich se d\u00e9couvre des ambitions pr\u00e9sidentielles en pleine mer. En m\u00eame temps, il r\u00e9vise sa copie en la caviardant m\u00e9chamment. Tout cela est affaire de conviction.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tQu’on veuille bien consid\u00e9rer la chose. Gingrich est en croisi\u00e8re en M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e. C’est effectivement l\u00e0 que, \u00e0 Washington, the action is<\/em>, en croisi\u00e8re en M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e, jamais trop loin de la VI\u00e8me Flotte, et pas n’importe quelle croisi\u00e8re, bien s\u00fbr : la Freedom Cruise<\/em>, organis\u00e9e pour les amis, activistes et riches donateurs r\u00e9publicains, \u00e0 l’abri de tout contact europ\u00e9en dangereux. Et voil\u00e0 qu’on susurre \u00e0 Gingrich que McCain, avec ses ambitions pr\u00e9sidentielles et sa bonne place dans les sondages, commence \u00e0 agacer tout le monde. Gingrich ne fait ni une ni deux. Le Destin l’appelle. Il met de l’eau dans son vin.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tQuelques extraits substantiels d’une d\u00e9p\u00eache de World Peace Herald<\/em> d’aujourd’hui<\/a>, car la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 est dans le d\u00e9tail :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00ab Mr. Gingrich was a guest speaker and panelist on a 10-day Freedom Cruise sponsored by the Virginia-based Freedom Alliance that featured 16 other well-known conservatives, including Reagan administration Attorney General Edwin Meese, former National Review publisher William Rusher, Reagan White House national security aide Oliver L. North and former Georgia Rep. Bob Barr.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb Mr. Gingrich said he has not yet decided whether to seek the presidency in 2008. But during several panel discussions open only to the Freedom Cruise audience about 160 donors to conservative organizations participants made clear their antipathy toward Mr. McCain, the Arizona senator who currently leads in polls of prospective Republican presidential candidates.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb When the audience was asked at one event for a show of opposition to Mr. McCain, a sea of hands went up. Asked for a show of McCain supporters, only two hands were raised.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb The conservative group also showed considerable affection toward Mr. Gingrich and a clear disinclination so far to coalesce behind any one of the other top potential 2008 Republican contenders, such as Virginia Sen. George Allen, Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, former New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb The unambiguity of Mr. Gingrich’s own political ambition emerged when, through an intermediary, he obtained permission from the captain of the Noordam, a Holland American Line ship, to address the nearly 2,000 vacationing passengers aboard the ship.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb As news spread that Mr. Gingrich was aboard the vessel and would give a half-hour speech and take questions for another half hour, the ship’s largest auditorium filled with some 900 passengers.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb But the response that showed the greatest change in Mr. Gingrich as a politician and public speaker came when an audience member asked, Should we allow Iran to build nuclear weapons or should we intervene militarily?<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb Rather than the quick, hawkish response for which he has been known throughout his long career in politics, Mr. Gingrich paused and appeared to weigh his answer. Finally, he said, Iran is a very big country. They’ve had 20 years to hide their activities underground. I know that they have at least one facility the size of two aircraft carriers that is entirely underground.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb He paused again, then said, I don’t know what will happen right now because Washington is very confused. And you have all the political pressure and the side effects of the Iraq campaign and you have the way the news media operates.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb After saying he opposed military action against Iran, he said that in North Korea and Iran, we should have a conscious strategy that starts from a simple premise that many residents of both countries hate their leaders and political system.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb I think our position should be that we don’t expect Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to be around for very long, he said. But we think the Iranians are going to get rid of him. We’re not. But then I would do everything I could to make that possible.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tDonc, plus question de Troisi\u00e8me Guerre mondiale<\/a> et autre g\u00e2terie comme une attaque massive contre l’Iran. Il s’agit d’\u00eatre s\u00e9rieux et responsable, et cela d’autant plus que McCain est partisan de cogner sur l’Iran. Il faut observer la rapidit\u00e9 avec laquelle l’Histoire d\u00e9file \u00e0 Washington D.C., et aussi sur les flots bleus de la M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e, l\u00e0 o\u00f9 la pollution libanaise suite aux attaques isra\u00e9liennes n’est pas encore parvenue. Tout cela, affaire de conviction.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
