On prendra tr\u00e8s grand soin de comparer cette note avec celle qui pr\u00e9c\u00e8de, concernant la guerre contre la terreur<\/a> aux USA. Ici, il s’agit d’un \u00e9ditorial du Boston Globe<\/em>, du 2 janvier<\/a>, sur la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 pour le gouvernement US de prendre au s\u00e9rieux la crise climatique. Le style m\u00eame du texte, son ton compass\u00e9 et raisonnable, son cachet conventionnellement moralisateur, tout cela pourtant frapp\u00e9 du sceau de l’\u00e9vidence, nous font mesurer combien nous sommes loin d’une mobilisation aux USA.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tUn extrait du texte, sans grande originalit\u00e9 mais pourtant appuy\u00e9 sur l’\u00e9vidence catastrophique de la crise climatique :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abEven the Bush administration has been forced, grudgingly, to acknowledge this. Last week, it proposed to put the bears on the threatened species list because rising temperatures in the Arctic are depriving them of the ice platforms from which they hunt seals. But Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne acted only under pressure of a suit from environmental organizations, and has refused to admit that greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles and smokestacks are causing the ice loss and would have to be cut back to save the bears’ habitat.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbThe administration still has a long way to go before it comes out of the denial that has left it on the sidelines as other nations take action to reduce greenhouse gases. If the United States does not quickly take a leadership role on this issue, polar bears will be only one of many species to suffer. So will human beings.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tLe contraste est frappant avec la description de la transformation radicale de l’Am\u00e9rique en lutte contre la terreur. Le contraste est saisissant parce qu’ici (terreur), la mobilisation est g\u00e9n\u00e9rale contre un ennemi insaisissable, qui n’existe sans doute pas, qui est la pure cr\u00e9ation du virtualisme am\u00e9ricaniste ; l\u00e0 (crise climatique), les n\u00e9cessit\u00e9s de la lutte contre un danger mena\u00e7ant potentiellement l’\u00e9quilibre de l’esp\u00e8ce sont rappel\u00e9es d’une fa\u00e7on assez conventionnelle \u00e0 l’intention d’une structure de pouvoir compl\u00e8tement indiff\u00e9rente \u00e0 cette lutte, inconsciente de son enjeu, et conduite \u00e0 y participer accidentellement selon des contraintes sans grandeur ni cons\u00e9quence.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tAh oui, tout de m\u00eame On est Am\u00e9ricain ou on ne l’est pas. Le Boston Globe<\/em>, d\u00e9roulant sa critique sans cons\u00e9quence, n’oublie tout de m\u00eame pas de mentionner ceci (en gras, l’essentiel) : \u00abIf the United States does not quickly take a<\/em> leadership<\/em><\/strong> role on this issue, polar bears will be only one of many species to suffer<\/em>\u00bb Il n’aurait pas \u00e9t\u00e9 possible d’\u00e9crire simplement que l’Am\u00e9rique doit participer \u00e0 cette bataille, non, il lui faut \u00e9videmment en prendre le leadership<\/em>, sans quoi rien, absolument rien n’est possible. Cet esprit am\u00e9ricaniste, ferm\u00e9, autiste, fix\u00e9 sur ses caract\u00e8res les plus obsessionnels, est, m\u00eame lorsque le sentiment est bon, totalement d\u00e9courageant.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 3 janvier 2007 \u00e0 09H08<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On prendra tr\u00e8s grand soin de comparer cette note avec celle qui pr\u00e9c\u00e8de, concernant la guerre contre la terreur aux USA.
