29 novembre 2010<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abAmerican popularity has risen dramatically since the Bush administration, with large new majorities from France and Britain to Indonesia and China now viewing the U.S. favorably. And if Obama has been unable to reap as many concrete benefits as he’d hoped from that shift from the international loathing for his predecessor, it did seem to reduce foreign governments’ temptation, at least initially, to make the most of the most embarrassing disclosures contained in the documents.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbBut the WikiLeaks fiasco crystallizes for Obama a new challenge: restoring the sense that the United States can effectively project its power. The third tranche of documents from WikiLeaks caps a series of failures whose common theme isn’t American arrogance or humility, imperial overreach or defeatism but a more basic inability to deliver.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbEuropean allies welcomed Obama’s commitment to their priority of fighting climate change but watched in dismay as a planned shift in U.S. policy died in the Senate a pattern repeated in the successful move by Senate Republicans to block a new arms control treaty with Russia.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbObama’s attempt to use his early momentum to break the Middle East deadlock has made no progress. His hope that a return to diplomacy could change American relations with its two most immediately dangerous antagonists, North Korea and Iran, has so far not materialized. A recent trip to Asia saw him publicly rebuffed by a small ally, South Korea, on trade policy.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbIn Afghanistan, meanwhile, the administration remains optimistic that a surge of troops will change the course of a long war, but public confidence is sagging.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbAnd now the leaks, which Der Spiegel described as a political meltdown for American foreign policy\u00a0\u00bb that leaves \u00ab\u00a0the trust America’s partners have in the country … badly shaken. The U.S. government looks foolish again and to a certain degree looks inchoate in the direction of its foreign policy,’ said Steve Clemons, a fellow at the New America Foundation. Other governments are not going to trust the ability of the U.S. to maintain these sorts of secrets.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t Sur Antiwar.com<\/em>, Norman Solomon, beaucoup plus incisif comme \u00e0 son habitude, met en \u00e9vidence cette m\u00eame d\u00e9faite de communication, ou de relations publiques, que repr\u00e9sente l’affaire Wikileaks<\/em> pour le syst\u00e8me de l’am\u00e9ricanisme. Il insiste dans ce cas sur les m\u00e9thodes, les intrigues sordides, l’emploi de la force, etc., tout ce qui est officiellement ni\u00e9 au nom de la vertu officielle, par les sources officielles. Cette fois, ce sont les sources officielles elles-m\u00eames qui parlent, et la vertu officielle ainsi d\u00e9mentie par la parole officielle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abWith its massive and unending reliance on military force with a result of more and more carnage, leaving behind immense grief and rage in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and elsewhere the U.S. government has colossal gaps to bridge between its public-relations storylines and its war-making realities.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe same government that devotes tremendous resources to inflicting military violence abroad must tout its humane bona fides and laudable priorities to the folks back home. But that essential PR task becomes more difficult when official documents to the contrary keep leaking.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbNo government wants to face documentation of actual policies, goals, and priorities that directly contradict its public claims of virtue. In societies with democratic freedoms, the governments that have the most to fear from such disclosures are the ones that have been doing the most lying to their own people.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe recent mega-leaks are especially jarring because of the extreme contrasts between the U.S. government’s public pretenses and real-life actions. But the standard official response is to blame the leaking messengers. We condemn in the strongest terms the unauthorized disclosure of classified documents and sensitive national security information, the White House said on Nov. 28.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n
