Solana<\/a>) que cette information fut si proche de z\u00e9ro qu’on ne l’en distingue gu\u00e8re.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abAt first, Mike McConnell, the director of national intelligence, decided to keep the new findings secret, but reluctantly reversed course in a flurry of discussions last weekend out of fear of leaks and charges of a coverup, officials said. At that point, only the Israelis had gotten a heads-up. Congress, European allies and the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency were not given full briefings about the report until hours before it was released.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThat irritated European allies. The administration is going to pay a price for not allowing allies in on it at an earlier date, said Robert J. Einhorn, a former State Department nonproliferation official. The French had carried the administration’s water on this issue and really went out on a limb to get the European Union to adopt tough sanctions. And now the rug has been pulled out from under them.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t()<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbThe<\/em> [NIE] process was climaxing just as Bush was convening a Middle East peace conference in Annapolis, a meeting designed at least in part to rally the region against Iran. No one told participants about the new information, but on the same day they were gathering in Annapolis on Nov. 27, the National Intelligence Board met to finalize the new NIE. McConnell and others briefed Bush and Cheney the next day. Even though intelligence officials planned to keep it from the public, Bush later that day passed it on to Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Cheney told Defense Minister Ehud Barak.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t()<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbOn Monday <\/em>[3 December], Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called counterparts in Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China, which have been negotiating a new set of sanctions against Iran. Foreign officials groused about how it was handled. Had they known before the summit, a senior Israeli official said, I’m not sure we would have shown up.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tConstat particulier: les Isra\u00e9liens ont \u00e9t\u00e9 favoris\u00e9s, mais \u00e0 peine, et surtout apr\u00e8s le sommet d’Annapolis, ce qui leur laisse l’impression d’avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 manipul\u00e9s. A part cette faveur qui est d\u00e9risoire par rapport \u00e0 la longueur et \u00e0 l’intensit\u00e9 de la bataille int\u00e9rieure \u00e0 Washington, et par rapport au sujet pour Isra\u00ebl, rien du tout.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\tNous devons nuancer notablement notre jugement habituel sur les causes de cette indiff\u00e9rence des USA pour leurs alli\u00e9s. Certes, cette indiff\u00e9rence a jou\u00e9, mais, pour ce cas, ce fut un point accessoire. Il y eut essentiellement le fait de la formidable bataille interne qui s’est pass\u00e9e \u00e0 Washington, qui d\u00e9tournait \u00e9videmment tous les participants de la pr\u00e9occupation d’informer les alli\u00e9s \u00e0 propos de NIE 2007, tous<\/strong> les alli\u00e9s, c’est-\u00e0-dire y compris les Isra\u00e9liens. Il s’agissait donc bien, du point de vue de l’intensit\u00e9 de la bataille, de l’enjeu de l’ordre du coup d’Etat. On ne pensait \u00e9videmment pas une seule seconde aux alli\u00e9s, mais m\u00eame si on y avait pens\u00e9 il est assur\u00e9 que la d\u00e9cision aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 prise et respect\u00e9e qu’aucune information ne leur serait adress\u00e9e. La NIE 2007 fut d’abord une affaire int\u00e9rieure au pouvoir am\u00e9ricaniste, une crise majeure de ce pouvoir, en circuit ferm\u00e9 et compl\u00e8tement \u00e9tanche. Le contenu de la NIE 2007 (la situation nucl\u00e9aire de l’Iran) vient, en importance, tr\u00e8s loin derri\u00e8re, puisqu’il n’a \u00e9t\u00e9 que l’occasion de cette formidable bataille int\u00e9rieure.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
