Ukusukela ngoLwesibini kunye nokuqhubeka kwezi veki zintathu zizayo, ityala elimangalisayo liyenzeka kwiNkundla yeSithili sase-US e-401 Courthouse Square e-Alexandria, Va. Ityala livulelekile eluntwini, kwaye phakathi kwamangqina azayo nguCondoleezza Rice, kodwa -ngokungafaniyo neChelsea Uvavanyo lwemanning-uninzi lwezihlalo kulo msitho ofanayo azinanto.
Imithombo yeendaba ikakhulu yi-MIA, kwaye ngexesha lesidlo sasemini iitafile ezimbini ezikwi cafe engaphaya kwesitrato zihlala, omnye ngummangalelwa kunye namagqwetha akhe, elinye liqela elincinci labaphembeleli, kubandakanya igosa langaphambili leCIA uRay McGovern, ibhlogi UMarcy Wheeler ( landela ingxelo yakhe yazo zonke iinkcukacha e ExposeFacts.org), kunye noNorman Solomon oququzelele uxwebhu lwezikhalazo e DropTheCharges.org -Igama elizithethelelayo.
Kutheni le nto uGareth Porter (kunye nabanye abagxile kumzamo wamashumi-eminyaka waseNtshona wokubeka i-Iran nokuba okanye ukulandela izixhobo zenyukliya) abekho apha, andazi. Kutheni uluntu lungekho, andazi. Ngaphandle kokuba uJeffrey Sterling akakhange abe naziidemon kwimithombo yeendaba.
UJeffrey ngubani?
Abanye abantu bevile ngoJames Risen, a ENew York Times Intatheli eyala ukubiza umthombo webali. Damn kulungile. Kulungile kuye. Kodwa yayiyintoni ibali kwaye urhulumente wayefuna ukuba ngubani obizwa ngokuba ngumthombo? Ah. Leyo mibuzo inokubonakala icacile, kodwa ukunika ingxelo ngoJames Risen kubakhusele njengesibetho iminyaka kunye neminyaka ngoku. Kwaye imithombo yeendaba ezimeleyo ayisoloko ilungile ekwenziweni kwebali njengoko injalo ekuphuculeni kumabali kumaphephandaba.
UJeffrey Sterling waya kwiCongress ngebali lakhe. Wayeligosa lamatyala e-CIA. Utyholwa ngokuthatha ibali lakhe kuJames Risen. Umtshutshisi ubeka ngokucacileyo, ngokuchasene nomdla wakhe, ngelixesha lokuqhubeka kwetyala, ukuba abantu abaninzi babekhona ebalini kwaye babenokulithatha bavuse. Ukuba uSterling uza kufunyaniswa enetyala lolwaphulo-mthetho lokuvuthela impempe kulwaphulo-mthetho, umtshutshisi akakaxeleli ukuba iyakwenziwa njani loo nto.
Lithini eli bali? Luyintoni ulwaphulo-mthetho olutyhilwe nguSterling kweso silili sincinci sabantu abanomdla ngokwaneleyo ukuba bamamele? (Ngokuqinisekileyo, incwadi kaRusen "yayiyeyona nto“ ithengwa kakhulu "kodwa ngumqobo ophantsi lowo; akukho nokuba abe linye igqwetha e-Alexandria eliyifundileyo le ncwadi; nkqu nengqina elichaphazelekayo kweli tyala lingqina ngolwe-Lwesithathu ukuba liza kufunda isahluko esinye esifanelekileyo.)
Ibali yile. I-CIA yaqulunqa izicwangciso zenxalenye ephambili yebhombu yenyukliya (into eyachazwa ligosa le-CIA ngoLwesithathu kubungqina bayo njenge “zizithsaba zesithsaba” zenkqubo yezixhobo zenyukliya), zafaka iziphene kwizicwangciso, zaza iRussia yanika ezo Izicwangciso eziphosakeleyo eIran.
Ngexesha lokuxoxwa kwetyala ngolwe-Lwesithathu kusasa, amangqina omtshutshisi acacisa gca ukuba ukunceda i-Iran ekuphuhliseni inxenye yebhombu bekungekho semthethweni phantsi kwemithetho yolawulo lokuthumela ngaphandle e-US, kwaye babesazi ngelo xesha ukuba kunokwenzeka ukuba benza ntoni Ukwenza olo ncedo.
Ke, kutheni usenza oko?
Kwaye kutheni eli tyala liqhubeka iiyure kunye neeyure ngaphandle kokubaluleka kokutshutshisa uJeffrey Sterling, kuvakala zonke iinjongo kunye nokuzikhusela njenge-CIA?
Ewe, isizathu esichaziweyo salo msebenzi, owaziwa ngokuba yi-Operation Merlin, yayikukucothisa inkqubo yezixhobo zenyukliya yase-Iran ngokubangela ukuba izazinzulu zaseIran zichithe ixesha kunye nezixhobo kwisicwangciso esichithakeleyo esingasokuze sisebenze.
Ijaji encinci kakhulu, emhlophe kakhulu imamela ityala elenziwe ngolu hlobo. Urhulumente wase-US ebengenabo ubungqina benkqubo yezixhobo zenyukliya eIran kwaye kungekudala emva koko waphuma kuvavanyo lokuba le nkqubo ibingekho kwaye ibikhe yabakho ixesha elithile. Nangona kunjalo, iminyaka yomzamo kunye nezigidi zeedola ziye zazama ukuyicothisa inkqubo ngexesha leenyanga. I-CIA yenze uyilo, ukuzoba, kunye noluhlu lweenxalenye zomlilo waseRussia (icandelo lebhombu yenyukliya). Benza ngabom ukuba ingagqitywanga kuba bekucingelwa ukuba akukho sazinzulu sokwenene saseRussia esiza kuthi ngokuqinisekileyo sibe nolwazi olupheleleyo ngaso. Emva koko baxelele iRussia yabo ebekiweyo ukuba ixelele ama-Irani ukuba ayigqibekanga kuba ufuna imali, emva koko angakuvuyela ukuvelisa into angenakuba nayo.
Ngokwentambo enye efundwe ngokuvakalayo enkundleni, i-CIA ibingathanda ukunika i-Iran esona sixhobo sele senzelwe bona, kodwa ayenzanga kuba bekungazukuthenjwa ukuba iRussia ibe nayo.
Phambi kokuba iRussia ichithe iminyaka (nantoni na emfutshane ibingenakuthembeka, batsho) ukunxibelelana nabantu baseIran, oososayensi baseMelika bachitha iinyanga ezili-9 besakha esi sixhobo kwizicwangciso emva koko baqhubeka nokusivavanya kwilebhu. Emva koko bazise “iziphene” ezininzi kwizicwangciso kwaye bavavanya isiphoso ngasinye. Emva koko banike izicwangciso zabo eziphosakeleyo kwiqela labo lezenzululwazi ababengekho kwisikimu sabo se-cockamamie. Kwiinyanga ezintlanu, oososayensi babone kwaye bazinzisa ngokwaneleyo iziphene zokwakha umlilo kwaye bawenze ukuba asebenze elebhu. Oku kuthathwa njengempumelelo, sixelelwa njalo, kuba ama-Irani azakuthatha ixesha elide kuneenyanga ezintlanu, kwaye kuba ukufumana into yokusebenza ngaphandle kwelebhu kunzima kakhulu.
Kwityala labo, ukubuza imibuzo amangqina kubonisa ukuba bafumanisa okuninzi koku. "Ukhe ulubone uluhlu lwamalungu esiRashiya ngesiNgesi?" Ngaba umbuzo omnye ubuziwe ngoLwesithathu. Omnye umbuzo: “Uthi unabantu abanamava ekufumaneni iimpazamo kwizicwangciso zomlilo. Ngaba kungenxa yokuba kukho intengiso kwizinto ezinjalo? ” Ijaji iqhubeke nenkcaso yalo mbuzo wokugqibela.
Isizathu esichaziweyo sokuSebenza kwe-Merlin bububhanxa bamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza obungenakuchazwa nangaliphi na inqanaba lokungabikho kolwazi okanye ukungasebenzi kakuhle kwezopolitiko okanye iqela.
Nantsi enye inkcazo ye-Operation Merlin kunye nokuzikhusela komtshutshisi kunye namangqina akhe (ngakumbi "uBob S.") kutshutshiso lukaJeffrey Sterling osilelayo ukumangalela uJeffrey Sterling. Le yayiyinzame yokutyala izicwangciso ze-nuke e-Iran, yinxalenye yendlela echazwe kuyo Incwadi yokugqibela kaGareth Porter.
UMarcy Wheeler undikhumbuza ngeenzame ezinxulumene nokutyala izicwangciso ze-nuke zesiNgesi malunga nexesha elifanayo okanye kungekudala. Kwakukho i ilaptop yokufa, Kamva iphindiwe ngomnye umzamo wentengiso yemfazwe. Kwakukho i-nuke izicwangciso kunye nezahlulo wangcwatywa nasemva kwendlu.
Kutheni unika i-Iran izicwangciso eziphosakeleyo zenxalenye ephambili yesixhobo senyukliya? Kutheni ucinga ngento enika iIran into esele yakhiwe (engayi kulibazisa inkqubo engekhoyo ye-Iran). Kungenxa yokuba emva koko unokuchaza ukuba i-Iran inayo. Kwaye awuyi kuxoka, njengoko kunjalo amaxwebhu omgunyathi ibango I-Iraq uthenga uranium okanye ookontraka abaqeshiweyo abenza ngathi iityhubhu zealuminium zezixhobo zenyukliya. Nge-Operation Merlin ungasebenza ngomlingo wobumnyama bokwenyani: Ungaxela inyani malunga ne-Iran inento oyifunayo ngokungazenzisiyo ukuba i-Iran ibonakale inayo.
Kutheni usenza le migudu? Kutheni le nto i-Operation Merlin, nokuba yeyiphi inkuthazo (ii) enokuba ibikho?
Idemokhrasi!
Kanjalo.
Kodwa xa "uBob S." uyabuzwa ukuba ngubani ogunyazise obu buhlanya akathethi. Ucacisa ngokucacileyo ukuba iqale ngaphakathi kwi-CIA, kodwa iyayiphepha imininingwane. Xa uJeffrey Sterling uxelele iCongress, iCongress ayixelelanga uluntu. Kwaye xa umntu exelela uJames Risen, urhulumente wase-US-enomsindo ngenxa yokuhlaselwa kwenkululeko yeendaba e-Paris-waqala ukubasa abantu enkundleni.
Kwaye uluntu alubonisi nokubukela ityala.
Zimanyeni nolu vavanyo bantu. Nika ingxelo ngayo. Xela inyani. Awuyi kuba nokhuphiswano. Imithombo yeendaba enkulu ayikho egumbini.
