Retenez le nom, assez exotique, du d\u00e9put\u00e9 d\u00e9mocrate de Hawaii Neil Abercrombie.

Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii) says no one should expect any support from him. Abercrombie, chairman of the House Armed Services air-land forces subcommittee, calls himself \u00ab\u00a0a real reactionary\u00a0\u00bb when it comes to selling sensitive defense technology — like the stealthy fighter’s cruise missile-detecting radar and wideband data links — to foreign governments. \u00ab\u00a0I’m probably to the right of Duncan Hunter on this transfer-of-technology question,\u00a0\u00bb says Abercrombie, referring to the former House Armed Services Committee chairman, now its ranking Republican and a candidate for president. To Abercrombie, the technology-transfer issue has nothing to do with humoring U.S. allies. \u00ab\u00a0It has everything to do with corporate profits — and they’re making plenty as it is,\u00a0\u00bb he says.<\/em>»<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Ces remarques diverses permettent de fixer l’atmosph\u00e8re qui va r\u00e9gner au Congr\u00e8s avec cette l\u00e9gislature d\u00e9mocrate.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n • Neil Abercrombie plus dur que Duncan Hunter<\/a> surnomm\u00e9 \u00ab\u00a0Mr. Buy-American-Act\u00a0\u00bb<\/a>, il faut le faire. Cela signifie que la barri\u00e8re d\u00e9j\u00e0 solide \u00e9lev\u00e9e contre les transferts de technologies va \u00eatre encore renforc\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n • L’int\u00e9r\u00eat de Neil Abercrombie, vieux dur original, barbu et militant de la cause progressiste, est que sa position est compl\u00e8tement anti-business<\/em> (anti-industrie de l’armement) au contraire du corrompu notoire Duncan Hunter. Neil Abercrombie ne c\u00e9dera \u00e9videmment pas aux arguments des industriels, comme il arrivait parfois (rarement) \u00e0 Hunter de le faire, lorsqu’il d\u00e9rogeait \u00e0 sa position de protection des technologies de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale. Le verrou est encore plus m\u00e9chamment tir\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n • On peut en tirer les conclusions qu’on peut pour l’avenir de la coop\u00e9ration des armements et pour certains programmes type JSF…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Mis en ligne le 24 mai 2007 \u00e0 13H56<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Abercrombie et la coop\u00e9ration des armements Retenez le nom, assez exotique, du d\u00e9put\u00e9 d\u00e9mocrate de Hawaii Neil Abercrombie.
