\tLe d\u00e9nonciateur (whistleblower<\/em>) du syst\u00e8me PRISM de la NSA est devenu volontairement un homme public. Il s’appelle Edward Snowden, il est jeune (29 ans), il a failli servir en Irak mais en a \u00e9t\u00e9 emp\u00each\u00e9 \u00e0 cause d’un accident apr\u00e8s avoir eu le temps d’appr\u00e9cier la haine de ses instructeurs pour les Arabes, il a travaill\u00e9 pour la CIA puis pour la NSA, puis pour un contractant priv\u00e9 du complexe militaro-industriel (Booz Allen Hamilton). Il menait une vie confortable et heureuse selon les canons du Syst\u00e8me, sous le ciel bleu des \u00eeles Hawaii, lieu de p\u00e8lerinage favori de BHO, lorsqu’il a choisi de livrer au public le syst\u00e8me PRISM, sans aucune r\u00e9tribution d’aucune sorte. Il s’est r\u00e9fugi\u00e9 \u00e0 Hong Kong et a donn\u00e9 le feu vert au Guardian<\/em> pour tout r\u00e9v\u00e9ler de son extraordinaire odyss\u00e9e. Snowden est \u00e0 classer dans la m\u00eame cat\u00e9gorie des h\u00e9ro\u00efques d\u00e9nonciateurs du Syst\u00e8me, avec Ellsberg et Manning ; c’est un h\u00e9ros de notre temps, n\u00e9cessairement un h\u00e9ros antiSyst\u00e8me puisqu’il n’existe plus d\u00e9sormais une autre mani\u00e8re d’\u00eatre h\u00e9ro\u00efque.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tBien \u00e9videmment, le Guardian<\/em> sort la grosse artillerie pour pr\u00e9senter Snowden. (Malgr\u00e9 toutes ses vertus de membre honorables de la presse-Syst\u00e8me, le Guardian<\/em> se trouve \u00e0 nouveau dans une position critique vis-\u00e0-vis du Syst\u00e8me, sans doute comme jamais auparavant tant l’affaire est importante, et pour la fuite elle-m\u00eame, et pour l’\u00e9pisode Snowden qui commence aujourd’hui. Parmi les journalistes qui ont d\u00e9classifi\u00e9 Snowden et l’ont aid\u00e9, on trouve Glenn Greenwald, certainement le collaborateur le plus antiSyst\u00e8me du quotidien, c\u00e9l\u00e8bre pour ses chroniques \u00e0 Salon.com<\/em> et d\u00e9sormais au Guardian<\/em>.) Dans un long article de ce 10 juin 2013<\/a>, le Guardian<\/em> pr\u00e9sente l’odyss\u00e9e de Edward Snowden. Le profil du d\u00e9nonciateur est celui d’un citoyen US-Syst\u00e8me exemplaire, ce qui donne toute sa mesure \u00e0 l’importance de ses r\u00e9v\u00e9lations autant qu’\u00e0 sa d\u00e9cision de devenir un homme public avec les risques que cela comporte. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00ab…He does not fear the consequences of going public, he said, only that doing so will distract attention from the issues raised by his disclosures. I know the media likes to personalise political debates, and I know the government will demonise me. Despite these fears, he remained hopeful his outing will not divert attention from the substance of his disclosures. I really want the focus to be on these documents and the debate which I hope this will trigger among citizens around the globe about what kind of world we want to live in. He added: My sole motive is to inform the public as to that which is done in their name and that which is done against them.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbHe has had a very comfortable life that included a salary of roughly $200,000, a girlfriend with whom he shared a home in Hawaii, a stable career, and a family he loves. I’m willing to sacrifice all of that because I can’t in good conscience allow the US government to destroy privacy, internet freedom and basic liberties for people around the world with this massive surveillance machine they’re secretly building.<\/em> […] The only time he became emotional during the many hours of interviews was when he pondered the impact his choices would have on his family, many of whom work for the US government. \u00ab\u00a0The only thing I fear is the harmful effects on my family, who I won’t be able to help any more. That’s what keeps me up at night,\u00a0\u00bb he said, his eyes welling up with tears.<\/em> […]<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbHe left the CIA in 2009 in order to take his first job working for a private contractor that assigned him to a functioning NSA facility, stationed on a military base in Japan. It was then, he said, that he watched as Obama advanced the very policies that I thought would be reined in, and as a result, I got hardened. The primary lesson from this experience was that you can’t wait around for someone else to act. I had been looking for leaders, but I realised that leadership is about being the first to act. Over the next three years, he learned just how all-consuming the NSA’s surveillance activities were, claiming they are intent on making every conversation and every form of behaviour in the world known to them.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbHe described how he once viewed the internet as the most important invention in all of human history. As an adolescent, he spent days at a time speaking to people with all sorts of views that I would never have encountered on my own. But he believed that the value of the internet, along with basic privacy, is being rapidly destroyed by ubiquitous surveillance. I don’t see myself as a hero, he said, because what I’m doing is self-interested: I don’t want to live in a world where there’s no privacy and therefore no room for intellectual exploration and creativity. Once he reached the conclusion that the NSA’s surveillance net would soon be irrevocable, he said it was just a matter of time before he chose to act. What they’re doing\u00a0\u00bb poses \u00ab\u00a0an existential threat to democracy, he said.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t Pour Justin Raimondo, qui a du passer la nuit \u00e0 r\u00e9diger un long commentaire sur la nouvelle, Edward Snowden est \u00e9videmment un \u00abAmerican Hero<\/em>\u00bb. Justin le c\u00e9l\u00e8bre donc comme il importe de le faire, non sans noter avec un clin d’il qu’il s’agit d’un partisan de Ron Paul (\u00ab…the existence of people like Edward Snowden, who, I’m not surprised to learn, contributed $250 to Ron Paul’s 2012 presidential campaign<\/em>\u00bb). Parmi les divers aspects de cette affaire qu’il aborde, Raimondo s’attache \u00e0 la situation pr\u00e9sente de Snowden, avec les possibilit\u00e9s d’extradition comme va certainement le demander l’administration Obama. (Les r\u00e9publicains, en bons employ\u00e9s-Syst\u00e8me, hurlent d\u00e9j\u00e0 qu’il faut obtenir l’extradition de Snowden.) Pour lui, Raimondo, cela am\u00e9nera un cas int\u00e9ressant en fonction de l’attitude de la Chine, attitude qui pourrait s’av\u00e9rer elle-m\u00eame int\u00e9ressante en fonction de l’art chinois de la finasserie \u00e9nigmatique… Apr\u00e8s tout, les Chinois viennent d’\u00eatre vivement admonest\u00e9s par les formidablement vertueux USA pour leurs actes de surveillance et de cyber-agressivit\u00e9 (\u00e0 ce sujet, Snowden observe : \u00abWe hack everyone everywhere. We like to make a distinction between us and the others. But we are in almost every country in the world…<\/em>\u00bb) <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abI think it is really tragic that an American has to move to a place that has a reputation for less freedom. Still, Hong Kong has a reputation for freedom in spite of the People’s Republic of China. It has a strong tradition of free speech.<\/em> [said Snowden<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbStronger, apparently, than our own and that may indeed turn out to be true, at least in this particular case. Aside from the bitter irony of having to flee to Red China in order to escape the enemies of freedom I told you we’re living in Bizarro World this is actually quite a smart move, because it’s an open question as to whether the Chinese government will hand him over to the Americans. If they do, they will surely take their time about it. Hong Kong has autonomy in its internal affairs, while defense and foreign policy are Beijing’s domain. The relatively liberal politics of Hong Kong make a quick handover unlikely and, as far as Beijing is concerned, especially unlikely in the wake of a Sino-American summit at which President Obama went out of his way to complain about alleged Chinese hacking of US computer systems. In response to that charge, Snowden had this to say: We hack everyone everywhere. We like to make a distinction between us and the others. But we are in almost every country in the world. We are not at war with these countries.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbWhile some Chinese officials would no doubt like to be able to hand Snowden over to the Americans, the political dynamics of such a move are highly problematic. They don’t want to be seen as caving in to American pressure: the ultra-nationalist Chinese public has enough gripes about official corruption and growing economic inequality for the Politburo to throw this into the boiling pot. The leadership transition is still shaky, and the new leader, Xi Jinping, is going to be sorely tested as this becomes a major diplomatic bone of contention between Beijing and Washington.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t Russia Today<\/em> rapporte bien entendu en grands d\u00e9tails l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement, ce 10 juin 2013<\/a>. Le texte comprend quelques aspects in\u00e9dits, dont l’un des plus int\u00e9ressants est la question pos\u00e9e \u00e0 un ancien agent du MI5 britannique qui n’a plus gu\u00e8re l’air d’appr\u00e9cier les activit\u00e9s de son service, et sa r\u00e9ponse qui semble sugg\u00e9rer des ouvertures importantes pour d’\u00e9ventuels imitateurs de Snowden…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abA former MI5 agent Annie Machon believes that Snowden will be the first of a series of modern whistleblowers who learnt from the terrible tragedy of the Bradley Manning case. The way he has run the whole exposure and disclosure of the crimes of the NSA and what they are doing against the American people and the rest of the world people has been very sophisticated. And I take heart from that. The fact that he has fled the USA, he is now in Hong Kong. The fact that he has been working with journalists of Glenn Greenwald’s caliber, Machon told RT. I think it’s been very, very well done. I would call this Whistleblowing 2.0.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tUn \u00e9v\u00e9nement dans l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement, ou un \u00e9v\u00e9nement plus important que l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement ? On peut se demander, effectivement, si la sortie en public de Snowden, dans ces conditions de lucidit\u00e9 et de courage, ne vont pas provoquer un choc plus grand encore que la diffusion de PRISM. Nous parlons l\u00e0, comme \u00e0 notre habitude, de psychologie. La force du geste, son h\u00e9ro\u00efsme, qui constituent les premi\u00e8res impressions qui vont nous frapper, auront bien du mal \u00e0 \u00eatre dispers\u00e9es par l’action-turbo<\/em> dont va nous inonder le Syst\u00e8me, absolument furieux de l’insolence de ce Snowden. L’\u00e9v\u00e9nement dans l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement constitue en effet une mise \u00e0 nu humaine brutale , sans le moindre artifice, de la v\u00e9ritable face du Syst\u00e8me.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tLa communication s’est d\u00e9j\u00e0 empar\u00e9e de l’affaire, et comme d’habitude dans son mode Janus<\/a> si l’on mesure l’\u00e9cho fantastique de l’odyss\u00e9e d’Edward Snowden. Lucy Steigerwald, de Antiwar.com<\/em>, se demande, le 10 juin 2013<\/a> si Snowden va b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier du soutien public massif dont a manqu\u00e9 le soldat Manning, lequel aurait fait au moins un aussi beau cas de bataille pour la communaut\u00e9 gay<\/em>, que le mariage gay<\/em>, mais on sait aujourd’hui (voir le 29 avril 2013<\/a>) de quel bois sont fait ces diverses communaut\u00e9s noyaut\u00e9es par le Syst\u00e8me… Dans le cas de Snowden, la question vaut d’\u00eatre pos\u00e9e. Snowden esp\u00e8re que sa r\u00e9v\u00e9lation publique ne prendra pas le pas, au niveau de la communication, sur les r\u00e9v\u00e9lations sur le syst\u00e8me PRISM. Il n’a pas n\u00e9cessairement raison : l’humanisation de la R\u00e9sistance (r\u00e9sistance au Syst\u00e8me) qu’il permet ainsi pourrait repr\u00e9senter un d\u00e9clencheur inattendu pour une \u00e9volution des attitudes et des esprits. On le saura et on le verra assez vite.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tEn attendant, la sortie publique de Snowden, ses diverses pr\u00e9cisions, l’\u00e9cho m\u00e9diatique de la chose, vont absolument t\u00e9taniser le Syst\u00e8me, et cela est aussi une cons\u00e9quence psychologique importante de l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement dans l’\u00e9v\u00e9nement. On va bien s\u00fbr nous parler de d\u00e9monisation, de vengeance, de condamnation, d’op\u00e9rations secr\u00e8tes contre Snowden et toutes ces choses qui marquent combien le Syst\u00e8me, dans son hubris<\/em> pathologique, ne peut s’emp\u00eacher de c\u00e9der \u00e0 une vindicte qui le dessert plus qu’elle ne l’avantage dans chaque cas de cette sorte (voir Assange, et Manning bien s\u00fbr). On nous parlera moins, autre aspect de sa pathologie, de la parano\u00efa interne qui va s’emparer des diff\u00e9rents services et agences du Syst\u00e8me actifs dans le travail de la surveillance obsessionnelle qui le caract\u00e9rise. Les premiers servis \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard seront les quelques 100.000 (moins un) employ\u00e9s de la NSA, qui seront sans doute les premiers \u00e0 \u00eatre soumis \u00e0 l’efficace surveillance du syst\u00e8me PRISM. Cela facilitera leur travail, \u00e0 tous.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 10 juin 2013 \u00e0 11H34<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Salut au h\u00e9ros antiSyst\u00e8me Le d\u00e9nonciateur (whistleblower) du syst\u00e8me PRISM de la NSA est devenu volontairement un homme public.
