Le tsunami<\/em> 9\/11 a commenc\u00e9<\/h4>\n

Depuis d\u00e9sormais une bonne semaine, de tr\u00e8s nombreux articles consacr\u00e9s au 11 septembre 2001 sont publi\u00e9s. Ils anticipent le 10\u00e8me anniversaire de l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement. (Voir notre Bloc-Notes<\/em> de ce m\u00eame 6 septembre 2011<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tBien qu’il nous soit \u00e9videmment impossible de suivre d’un point de vue statistique ce d\u00e9ferlement, nous ne sommes pas tr\u00e8s arm\u00e9s face au r\u00e8gne de la quantit\u00e9, nous pouvons signaler tel ou tel de ces articles qui nous paraissent \u00e0 la fois int\u00e9ressants et significatifs. Ils portent moins sur l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement lui-m\u00eame (9\/11 et la comm\u00e9moration) que sur des aspects cons\u00e9quents de cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement, et c’est \u00e9videmment l\u00e0 que se trouve l’int\u00e9r\u00eat \u00e9ventuellement qualitatif de ce d\u00e9ferlement m\u00e9diatique. Nous signalons ici deux de ces articles.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t Le 4 septembre 2011<\/a>, le Washington Post<\/em> a publi\u00e9 un tr\u00e8s long article sur l’\u00e9tat de l’Am\u00e9rique du point de vue de la guerre, c’est-\u00e0-dire, sur le fait que l’Am\u00e9rique s’est install\u00e9e dans un \u00e9tat \u00e9trange de guerre sans fin (\u00abA decade after the 9\/11 attacks, Americans live in an era of endless war<\/em>\u00bb). L’impression est effectivement \u00e9trange, comme si l’Am\u00e9rique, ou plut\u00f4t le syst\u00e8me de l’am\u00e9ricanisme comme part essentielle du Syst\u00e8me, s’accrochait \u00e0 cet \u00e9tat de guerre sans fin qui lui permet au moins de continuer \u00e0 exister, comme si la perspective de la fin de cette guerre mythique, fabriqu\u00e9e comme un simulacre de survie, \u00e9tait repouss\u00e9e parce que la paix signifierait en fait la fin du Syst\u00e8me, et de l’Am\u00e9rique L’extrait cit\u00e9 est symbolique et ne rend pas compte de l’int\u00e9r\u00eat de l’article, par ses citations, ses commentaires, etc., marquant effectivement un \u00e9tat d’esprit partag\u00e9 entre l’illusion et la pathologie.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abThis is the American era of endless war.<\/em> []<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe two sets of buildings tell the story of America’s embrace of endless war in the 10 years since Sept. 11, 2001. In previous decades, the military and the American public viewed war as an aberration and peace as the norm.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbToday, radical religious ideologies, new technologies and cheap, powerful weapons have catapulted the world into a period of persistent conflict, according to the Pentagon’s last major assessment of global security. No one should harbor the illusion that the developed world can win this conflict in the near future, the document concludes.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t Le Guardian<\/em> de ce 6 septembre 2011<\/a>, de Seumas Milne, est au contraire extr\u00eamement pr\u00e9cis et consacr\u00e9 \u00e0 un aspect int\u00e9ressant de l’actualit\u00e9 du 11 septembre 2001 : les attaques dont fut l’objet ce journal dans la d\u00e9cade qui a imm\u00e9diatement suivi 9\/11 pour avoir fait une place notable, sinon d\u00e9cente, \u00e0 des articles critiques de la politique US, comme cause indirecte mais fondamentale de l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement du 9\/11. Cela permet de retrouver un nombre significatif de liens vers des articles de commentaires, juste apr\u00e8s le 11 septembre, qui restituent, eux, l’\u00e9tat d’esprit, \u00e9videmment hyst\u00e9rique, qui r\u00e9gnait apr\u00e8s l’attaque.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abFrom September 11 2001 onwards, the Guardian (almost uniquely in the British press) nevertheless ensured that those voices would be unmistakably heard in a full-spectrum debate about why the attacks had taken place and how the US and wider western world should respond.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe backlash verged on the deranged. Bizarre as it seems a decade on, the fact that the Guardian allowed writers to connect the attacks with US policy in the rest of the world was treated as treasonous in its supposed anti-Americanism.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbMichael Gove, now a Conservative cabinet minister, wrote in the Times that the Guardian had become a Prada-Meinhof gang of fifth columnists. The novelist Robert Harris, then still a Blair intimate, denounced us for hosting a babble of idiots unable to grasp that the world was now in a reprise of the war against Hitler.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe Telegraph ran a regular useful idiots column targeted at the Guardian, while Andrew Neil declared the newspaper should be renamed the Daily Terrorist and the Sun’s Richard Littlejohn lambasted us as the anti-American propagandists of the fascist left press.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbNot that the Guardian published only articles joining the dots to US imperial policy or opposing the US-British onslaught on Afghanistan. Far from it: in first few days we ran pieces from James Rubin, a Clinton administration assistant secretary; the ex-Nato commander Wesley Clark; William Shawcross (We are all Americans now); and the Washington Post columnist Jim Hoagland, calling for vengeance among others backing military retaliation.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe problem for the Guardian’s critics was that we also gave space to those who were against it and realised the war on terror would fail, bringing horror and bloodshed to millions in the process. Its comment pages hosted the full range of views the bulk of the media blanked; in other words, the paper gave rein to the pluralism that most media gatekeepers claim to favour in principle, but struggle to put into practice. And we commissioned Arabs and Muslims, Afghans and Iraqis, routinely shut out of the western media.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbSo on the day after 9\/11, the Guardian published the then Labour MP George Galloway on reaping the whirlwind of the US’s global role. Then the Arab writer Rana Kabbani warned that only a change of policy towards the rest of the world would bring Americans security (for which she was grotesquely denounced as a terror tart by the US journalist Greg Palast). The following day Jonathan Steele predicted (against the received wisdom of the time) that the US and its allies would fail to subdue Afghanistan.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
