On doit d’abord savoir que Justin Raimondo, r\u00e9dacteur en chef de Antiwar.com<\/em>, n’est pas un optimiste. Retranch\u00e9 dans son credo<\/em> libertarien, dans son hostilit\u00e9 visc\u00e9rale et admirable aux guerres ext\u00e9rieures de la tr\u00e8s fameuse politique<\/a> de l’id\u00e9ologie et de l’instinct, Raimondo peine \u00e0 croire qu’il puisse se passer quelque chose qui aille dans le sens de ses convictions, dans ce temple de la corruption v\u00e9nale et psychologique qu’est le Congr\u00e8s. Pourtant, cette fois, il y croirait presque, \u00e9crivant \u00e0 propos d’un vote tr\u00e8s r\u00e9cent de la Chambre : \u00abone Democrat called it the sign of the apocalypse.’ And while that may be overstating the case just a bit, the vote was indeed a sign of Something Big in the making.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tLisez donc son texte de ce 6 juin 2011<\/a>, intitul\u00e9 selon la r\u00e9f\u00e9rence fameuse : \u00abApocalypse now?<\/em>\u00bb. On a d\u00e9j\u00e0 lu<\/a> dans ces colonnes les p\u00e9rip\u00e9ties extraordinaires qui secouent le Congr\u00e8s, particuli\u00e8rement la Chambre des Repr\u00e9sentants, touch\u00e9e par ce que Paul R. Pillar, un ancien de la CIA, qualifie<\/a> de War Fatigue<\/em>, dans The National Interest<\/em> Pour r\u00e9sumer sur le terme et selon une p\u00e9rip\u00e9tie int\u00e9ressante qui nous est promise pour l’ann\u00e9e prochaine, comme le dit Ron Paul<\/a> en parlant de 2012, \u00abnobody knows what the outcome will be in this election<\/em>\u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tVoici donc quelques extraits de cette Apocalypse selon saint Justin, excellent commentaire du d\u00e9sordre que la folie du Syst\u00e8me, avec toutes ses cons\u00e9quences, inflige \u00e0 la Grande R\u00e9publique.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abThe Republican congressional leadership was in a panic: their covering for the Obama administration’s unconstitutional and unnecessary war in Libya was rapidly unraveling as a resolution by Rep. Dennis Kucinich calling for an end to it gained momentum among Republicans. Kucinich’s bill gave the administration 15 days to withdraw all US forces and support from NATO’s war, which had never been authorized by Congress.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbAt the last minute, House Speaker John Crybaby Boehner cobbled together a non-binding resolution giving the President an extension of the 60 days provided by the War Powers Resolution, asking for documents detailing our political and strategic goals, and slamming the administration for not providing a compelling rationale for military action. The resolution passed, 268-145, with 45 Democrats crossing the aisle and voting with the Republicans. More significantly, however, the Kucinich resolution which would have cut off appropriations for the Libyan intervention garnered more Republican votes (87) than Democratic ayes (61).<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbWhat’s going on here?<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbAs The Hill reported, one Democrat called it the sign of the apocalypse.’ And while that may be overstating the case just a bit, the vote was indeed a sign of Something Big in the making.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbIt was more than mere partisan opportunism, although there’s no doubt some of that was a factor: this vote represents a sea change in the way Republicans, and conservatives generally, view the conduct of US foreign policy. For the first time since the Kosovo war, a significant faction within the GOP congressional caucus is challenging our bipartisan foreign policy of global intervention of which the Libyan war is an exemplar.<\/em> []<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbMinority leader Nancy Pelosi took to the House floor pleading with members of her own party to stay the course: As I have said before, the NATO-led efforts in Libya will be strengthened by continued consultation with the Congress. The resolutions by Speaker Boehner and Congressman Kucinich, as currently drafted, do not advance our efforts in the region and send the wrong message to our NATO partners.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbPelosi was answered by Rep. Walter B. Jones, a North Carolina Republican whose district encompasses more military bases than any in the country: NATO’s feelings. NATO’s feelings. Well, how about the feelings of the American people? Isn’t it time that their feelings come first?<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tEt pour terminer, cette recommandation de saint Justin, qui refl\u00e8te un sentiment, et un souhait, assez courants : \u00abThe apocalypse the Establishment of both parties fears is upon us and let us pray it comes swiftly and mercilessly.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n dedefensa.org<\/em><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" L’Apocalypse selon saint Justin On doit d’abord savoir que Justin Raimondo, r\u00e9dacteur en chef de Antiwar.com, n’est pas un optimiste.
