apo New York Times mutori wenhau James Risen akaburitsa bhuku rake rekare, State of War, ivo Times yakapedza kunonoka kwayo kwerinopfuura gore uye akaburitsa chinyorwa chake pamusoro pekusora pasina waranti pane kutorwa nebhuku. The Times vakati yanga isingade kupesvedzera sarudzo dzemutungamiri wenyika muna 2004 nekuzivisa veruzhinji zvaiitwa nemutungamiri wenyika. Asi svondo rino a Times mupepeti akadaro 60 Minutes kuti White House yakanga yamuyambira kuti kurwiswa kwegandanga kuUnited States kwaizopomerwa mhosva Times kana munhu akatevera kuburitswa - saka zvingaite kuti Times ' Kuzvidzwa kwedemocracy yaive nyaya yekuvharidzira kutya uye kuda nyika. The Times haana kumbotaura dzimwe nyaya dzakasiyana dzakakosha mubhuku raRisen.
Imwe yenyaya idzi, yakawanikwa muchitsauko chekupedzisira, yaive yeOperation Merlin - ingangopihwa zita nekuti kungovimba nemashiripiti kwaigona kuita kuti ishande - umo CIA yakapa hurongwa hwezvombo zvenyukireya kuIran neshanduko shoma dziri pachena mazviri. Izvi zvaifungidzirwa kuti neimwe nzira inonotsa kuyedza kusipo kweIran kuvaka zvombo zvenyukireya. Risen akatsanangura Operation Merlin pa Dememocracy Zvino svondo rino uye akabvunzurudzwa nezvazvo na 60 Minutes izvo zvakakwanisa kusiya chero tsananguro yekuti chaive chii. Hurumende yeUS iri kuchuchisa Jeffrey Sterling achipomerwa mhosva yekuve muroyi akashanda senzvimbo yeRisen Akasimuka kukumbira kuti ataure kwaanobva (s).
Iyo Risen media blitz svondo rino inoperekedza kuburitswa kwebhuku rake idzva, Bhadhara Chero Mutengo. Kusimuka zvakajeka hakuzodududzi. Panguva ino akaita yake dumbest-chinhu-iyo-CIA-yakaita-nguva pfupi yapfuura nyaya chitsauko chechipiri kwete chekupedzisira, uye kunyangwe iyo. New York Times atozvitaura. Tiri kutaura nezve “mabasa ekurwadzisa,” “Iraq ine maWMD,” “tose ngatitarise mbudzi” nhanho yekusataura pano. Tiri kutaura nezvemhando yechinhu chingatungamira hutongi hwaObama kuyedza kuisa munhu mutirongo. Asi hazvina kujeka kuti pane yakavanzika sosi yekupomera panguva ino, uye Dhipatimendi reZvinonzi Ruramisiro ratove mushure meSterling naRisen.
Sterling, nenzira, haanzwike nekuenzaniswa naChelsea Manning kana Edward Snowden kana vamwe vanoridza muridzo Risen anoshuma nezvake mubhuku rake idzva. Veruzhinji, zvinoita sekunge, havaite gamba remuridzo kusvika mushure mekunge vezvenhau vemakambani vaita mukurumbira wekuti munhu anonzi mutengesi. Sterling, chinonakidza, munhu anoridza muridzo anogona kungonzi "mutengesi" dai kwaive kupandukira kufumura kupandukira, sezvo vanhu vanofunga mumashoko iwayo kunenge pasi rose vanozoona kupa hurongwa hwenyukireya kuIran sekupandukira. Mune mamwe mazwi, haadzivirirwe kubva pakurwiswa kwakajairwa, asi akanamatira padanho rekutanga-ivo-vanoregeredza-iwe nekuti hapana kufarira kwekambani mukutaura nyaya yeMerlin.
Saka ndeipi hupenzi hutsva kubva kuna Langley? Izvi chete: kubhejera-akapindwa muropa komputa anonzi Dennis Montgomery uyo aisakwanisa kutengesa Hollywood kana Las Vegas pasoftware yake scams, sekugona kwake kuona zvirimo muvhidhiyo tepi isingaonekwe nemeso, akatengesa CIA pamhosva yekunyepedzera. kuti aigona kuona zvakavanzika al Qaeda meseji mukutepfenyura kweAl Jazeera terevhizheni network. Kutaura chokwadi, Montgomery anoti CIA yakasundidzira zano paari uye akamhanya naro. Uye kwete chete iyo CIA yakamedza hooey yake, asi ndizvo zvakaitawo mazano komiti yevakuru, nhengo dzayo dzaive, kwekanguva: Mutevedzeri weMutungamiriri Dick Cheney, aimbova National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, Anodaidzwa kuti Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of State Colin Powell, CIA Director George Tenet, uye Attorney General John. Ashcroft. Tenet anoita basa rake remazuva ese se dumber-than-a-post bureaucrat muRisen's account, asi John Brennan anozivikanwa seakave nechekuitawo mumwedzi waDennis Montgomery. Bush White House yakamisa ndege dzepasi rose nekuda kweyambiro yakavanzika yeMontgomery nezvekuparadzwa, uye yakanyatsofunga nezvekupfura ndege kubva mudenga.
France payaida kuona hwaro hwekumisa ndege, yakakurumidza kuona murwi wemhepo crottin de cheval uye ita kuti US izive. Saka, iyo CIA yakaenderera mberi kubva kuMontgomery. Uye Montgomery akaenderera mberi kune zvimwe zvibvumirano zvinoshanda pane mamwe madonhwe ebhiza ePentagon. Uye hapana chinovhundutsa ipapo. "Ongororo ye2011 nePentagon," Risen anoti, "yakaona kuti mukati memakore gumi mushure me9/11, Dhipatimendi reDziviriro rakapa mari inodarika $400 bhiriyoni kune makondirakiti aimbove akatemerwa mhosva dzinosanganisira $1 miriyoni kana kupfuura muhutsotsi. .” Uye Montgomery haina kubvumidzwa. Uye isu vanhu vakamupfumisa nemamiriyoni hatina kuudzwa kuti aripo. Hapana chinoshamisa ipapo. Kuvanzika uye hunyengeri ndizvo zvitsva zvakajairika munyaya inoudzwa naRisen, ichitsanangura hunyengeri hwevanoponda drone, vanotambudza, vanoita purofiti, uye kunyange vanotya vanoita purofiti - makambani akahaiwa kuti agadzire hysteria. Kuraswa kwemari mune zvechiuto zvine chisimba kwakarambwa muhurukuro yeruzhinji kubva pamutoro wemari waunosanganisira kuti Risen anokwanisa kutaura Linden Blue, mutevedzeri wasachigaro weGeneral Atomics, achishoropodza vanhu vanotora mari kubva kuhurumende. Anoreva varombo vanotora mari shoma kune zvavanoda, kwete vanogadzira drone vanopfuma vane tsvina nekunyepedzera kuti drones inoita kuti nyika ive yakachengeteka.
Mudzi wedambudziko, sekuona kwaRisen, nderekuti mauto pamwe nenzvimbo dzekuchengetedza nyika dzakapihwa mari yakawanda kupfuura yavanokwanisa kuziva zvekuita nayo. Saka, vanofungidzira zvisina musoro kuti voita sei nazvo. Izvi zvinowedzerwa, Risen anonyora, nekutya zvakanyanya zvekuti vanhu havadi kuramba kune chero chinhu chingangoshanda kunyangwe muzviroto zvavo zvesango - kana izvo Dick Cheney akadana chisungo chekuisa mari mune chero chinhu chine mukana we1%. Risen akaudza Dememocracy Zvino kushandiswa kwechiuto ikoko kwakamuyeuchidza nezvemabhangi eWall Street. Mubhuku rake anopikisa kuti vatsigiri vehondo huru vakaonekwa sevakakura kuti vakundikane.
Risen anotaura nyaya dzakawanda mukati Bhadhara Chero Mutengo, kusanganisira nyaya yemapallet emari. Pamadhora mazana maviri emadhora akatumirwa kuIraq mumadhora zana emadhora, anonyora, $20 bhiriyoni haazivikanwe - akarasika, akabiwa, akashandiswa zvisizvo, kana kukandwa mukuyedza kwakakundikana kutenga sarudzo yeAyad Allawi. Risen anoti mamwe mabhiriyoni maviri emadhora emari yakashaikwa anotozivikanwa kunge akagara murwi muRebhanoni, asi hurumende yeUS haina chido chekuidzosera. Mushure mezvose, ingori mabhiriyoni maviri emadhora, uye mauto maindasitiri emauto ari kuyamwa pasi madhora miriyoni imwe pagore kubva kuhomwe yeUS.
Kana Risen, sevamwe vese, achitaura mutengo wehondo dzichangoburwa dzeUS ($4 trillion pamakore gumi, anodaro), ndinogara ndichishamisika kuti hapana anocherekedza kuti ihondo dzinoruramisa "nguva dzose" "base" kushandiswa kwemauto. imwe $ 10 trillion makore gumi ega ega panguva ino. Ini zvakare handitende kuti Risen anonyora kuti "kune vazhinji veAmerica, hondo haina kungoshivirira asi inobatsira." Chii? Ehe zvine pundutso zvakanyanya kune vamwe vanhu vanopesvedzera zvakanyanya kuhurumende. Asi "vazhinji veAmerica"? Vazhinji (kwete vazhinji) vanhu muUS vane mabasa muindasitiri yehondo, saka zvakajairika kufungidzira kuti kushandisa mari muhondo uye gadziriro dzehondo kunobatsira hupfumi. Muzvokwadi, kushandisa madhora mamwechete kumaindasitiri ane runyararo, padzidzo, pazvivakwa, kana kunyange pamitero yevanoshanda yaizoburitsa mamwe mabasa uye kazhinji mabasa ari nani anobhadhara - aine mari yakakwana yekubatsira munhu wese kuita shanduko kubva kuhondo kuenda kubasa rerunyararo. . Kushandiswa kwechiuto kunowedzera kusaenzana uye kunotsausa mari kubva kumabasa ayo vanhu vari munyika dzakawanda dzisina mauto. Ini zvakare ndinoshuva kuti dai Risen akwanisa kuisa nyaya kana maviri kubva muboka iro rinogadzira 95% yeUS vakabatwa nehondo: vanhu venzvimbo dzinorwiwa hondo.
Asi Risen anoita basa rakakura kune veterans vekutambudzwa kweUS vachikuvadzwa muhunhu, pakuwedzera kwekushandiswa kwemvura, uye pane dzimwe nguva nyaya inosekesa yekupinzwa kwehurumende yeUS kumatare nemhuri dze9/11 vachipokana nevanobvira Saudi mari ye9/11 - nyaya, chikamu chayo chinopihwa mamwe mamiriro maererano nemabatiro ayo muAfghanistan mubhuku razvino raAnand Gopal. Kune kana nyaya ine imwe yakafanana neMerlin maererano nekutengesa kunogona kuitika kweUS-yakagadzirwa drones kuUS vavengi kunze kwenyika.
Aya mabhuku ekuunganidza eSNAFU anofanirwa kuverengerwa neziso musango rakazara, hongu, kudzivirira mhedziso yekuti zvatinoda ihondo yakaitwa nemazvo kana - nekuda kweiyo nyaya - Wall Street yakaitwa nemazvo. Hatidi CIA iri nani asi hurumende yemahara yeCIA. Kuti matambudziko atsanangurwa haasi matsva anounzwa mundangariro, kwandiri, mukuverenga bhuku raRisen, nekudzokororwa kunodzokororwa kuDulles Airport. Zvakadaro, zvave kutanga kuita sekunge hama dzaDulles hadzisi kungova kona yehurumende zvakare, asi vatsigiri vevakanaka veAmerica. Uye izvo zvinotyisa. Kuvanzika kuri kubvumira kupenga, uye kuvanzika kukuru kuri kushandiswa kuchengetedza upenzi hwakavanzika. Chingave sei "Chakavanzika Chenyika" kuti CIA yakawira kune scam artist ainyepedzera kuona mashiripiti mameseji paAl Jazeera? Kana kupomerwa kwaVaObama kwevanoridza muridzo kusazivisa vanhu nezvenjodzi, zvirinani kuri kubatsira kutengesa mabhuku aJim Risen, ayo anofanirawo kumutsa vanhu zviri nani pane kushanya pakati pehusiku muchipatara kubva kuAlberto Gonzales uye. Andrew Card.
Pachine chimiro chakatetepa chehunhu chinowanikwa muUS tsika dzezvematongerwo enyika. Vezvematongerwo enyika veIraqi vane huori, mubhuku raRisen, vanozvipembedza vachitaura kuti mazuva ekutanga ekutora basa muna 2003 aive akaoma. A New York Times mupepeti akaudza 60 Minutes kuti makore mashoma ekutanga mushure me9/11 yanga isiri nguva yakanaka yeUS journalism. Izvi hazvifanirwe kutorwa sezvikonzero zvinogamuchirika zvekusazvibata. Sezvo mamiriro ekunze epasi anotanga zvakanyanya kufanana neCIA oparesheni, isu tichave nechinhu kunze kwenguva dzakaoma. Nechekare mauto eUS ari kugadzirira kugadzirisa kushanduka kwemamiriro ekunze nechinhu chimwe chete chaanoshandisa kugadzirisa Ebola kana hugandanga kana kubuda kwedemocracy. Kana tikasawana vanhu vanokwanisa kufunga netsoka dzavo, sezvinoitwa naRisen vachitarisa pasi pechirongo chemujeri reUS, tichave mune kumwe kushata chaiko.
