Savoir si la guerre en Irak se poursuit, si c’est une victoire \u00e0 la Petraeus, une cessation des combats fautes de combattants, une d\u00e9faite par le vide, une guerre dissimul\u00e9e derri\u00e8re l’absence d’activit\u00e9 des journalistes les plus libres du monde, qui peut savoir et qui s’y int\u00e9resse encore? La guerre en Irak semble s’\u00eatre enfouie dans le grand trou noir qu’elle \u00e9tait devenue, comme une poche qu’on retourne.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tLa bataille se poursuit sur d’autres terrains et d’autres champs. D\u00e9sormais, il y a notamment le front du co\u00fbt de la guerre. Trois semaines apr\u00e8s que le CBO ait annonc\u00e9 $2.400 milliards<\/a> pour 2016 pour la guerre d’Irak et la guerre d’Afghanistan, le parti d\u00e9mocrate annonce $3.500 milliards pour 2017 pour les m\u00eames, si l’on tient compte des co\u00fbts cach\u00e9s. Les beaux esprits auront beau hausser les \u00e9paules devant cette inflation, il reste que la comptabilit\u00e9 vient de haut, et qu’elle est tr\u00e8s officielle. \u00abThe number is so big, it boggles the mind<\/em>\u00bb (\u00abLe chiffre est si haut, l’esprit chancelle<\/em>\u00bb), disait le d\u00e9put\u00e9 Rahm Emanuel devant les $2.400 milliards. Que dit-il devant les $3.500 milliards investigu\u00e9s par son parti?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tVoici ce que nous en dit Jim Lobe, pour son compte, aujopurd’hui<\/a>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abU.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan could cost U.S. taxpayers as much as $3.5 trillion through 2017 if both direct and indirect, or hidden, costs are taken into account, according to a new report released Tuesday by Democrats in Congress.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe 27-page report, entitled War at Any Price? , concluded that the total economic costs incurred to date including \u00a0\u00bbhidden\u00a0\u00bb expenses, such as higher oil prices, interest on borrowing, and the long-term care of injured soldiers are already about twice the $800 billion dollars the Bush administration has asked Congress to appropriate through 2008.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbWe cannot afford this war, said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. We are funding this war with borrowed money, Americans are paying more at the gas pump, and it will take years for our military to recover from the damage of the president’s failed war strategy.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbAnd if President Bush gets his way, and we do not significantly draw down our troops<\/em> [in Iraq], the total costs of this war will reach astronomical heights, he added, noting the conclusions of the report, which was released by the Democratic members of the Joint Economic Committee (JEC).<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tA ce stade de sp\u00e9culation sur les co\u00fbts de cette guerre et sur les montants atteints, il n’est plus de tr\u00e8s grand int\u00e9r\u00eat d’analyser, de mesurer cette comptabilit\u00e9, etc. Nous sommes \u00e0 des niveaux trop surr\u00e9alistes pour rester dans le domaine explor\u00e9. Il est plus int\u00e9ressant d’envisager l’effet paniquant pour l’establishment<\/em> de ces \u00e9valuations successives, faites aux meilleures sources. Les g\u00e9missements du s\u00e9nateur Reid, leader de la majorit\u00e9 au S\u00e9nat, sont significatifs \u00abWe cannot afford this war<\/em> [] if President Bush gets his way <\/em>\u00bb Mais qui lui permet, au pr\u00e9sident Bush, de continuer dans la voie qu’il a choisie, sinon le Congr\u00e8s, et d’abord la majorit\u00e9 du S\u00e9nat, dont Reid est le chef de file? Mais comment pourrait-il envisager un coup de force contre ce pr\u00e9sident semi-fou ou semi-idiot, ce Congr\u00e8s prisonnier de ses propres contradictions, de ses calculs \u00e9lectoraux, de ses l\u00e2chet\u00e9s coutumi\u00e8res, de la m\u00e9canique du syst\u00e8me dont il mesure par instant la folie et qu’il continue \u00e0 servir fid\u00e8lement?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tAlors, c’est bien l’effet psychologique qu’il faut attendre, devant cet incroyable amoncellement de folies postmodernes, d’effets incroyables du syst\u00e8me d\u00e9cha\u00een\u00e9 et incontr\u00f4lable<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
