Re: ٍScream Bloody Murder...توثيقي لكريستيان أمانبور مدته ساعتين، بعد ساعة تقريباً على CNN (Re: Adil Al Badawi)
|
يمكن تلخيص هذا البرنامج التوثيقي في: حين يطلق السياسيون والدبلوماسيون ورجال الأعمال صيحة مفادها: Business/Politics Murder فإن هذه الصيحة دائماً ما تكون أقوى من صيحة الناشطين التي مفادها: Bloody Murder بل وأسبق:
Quote: Time after time, those with the power to stop genocide have lacked the courage to act. Time after time, national interests have trumped saving lives. So what will happen the next time a Lemkin or Wiesel, a Ponchaud or Dallaire, a Galbraith, Holbrooke, Kapila or Reeves says enough is enough? Next time, will anyone listen |
هل يعيد التاريخ نفسه في حالة أوباما الذي يتأهّب لدخول البيت الأبيض (فيما يتأهّب أوكامبو لادخال "رئيسنا" الكنجة) لاسيّما ووزيرته كلينتون كانت شاهدة حين أطلق (زوجها) الرئيس كلينتون وعوده بشأن البوسنة، قبل دخوله البيت الأبيض، ثم لحسها (ولو إلى حين) حين وجد يديه مكتوفتين بحبال الأوربيين؟...هل يفتل الصينيون من الأزمة الاقتصادية الحالية حبالاً يكتّفون بها أيدي أوباما وأيدي غيره؟ هل يتم اعتراض تحقيق العدالة بسبب عالم ينزلق نحو البطالة؟...نقول، الله يكضِّب الشينة.
Quote: AMANPOUR: Bill Clinton, who had campaigned on a promise of tough action, was about to enter the White House. And Holbrooke wanted to be the new president's point man on Bosnia
In a memo to Clinton's top advisers, Holbrooke again recommended direct use of force against the Serbs
HOLBROOKE: And, by advocating vigorous action, I was kind of marginalized
AMANPOUR: Instead of getting Bosnia, Holbrooke was named U.S. ambassador to Germany
AMANPOUR (on camera): You were basically, for want of a better term, screaming bloody murder, and they weren't listening
HOLBROOKE: Well, I was very frustrated. But the political pressures were running the other way
AMANPOUR: The European allies opposed airstrikes, because their peacekeepers on the ground would face retaliation. Clinton's national security adviser, Anthony Lake, told us, the president's hands were tied
ANTHONY LAKE, FORMER CLINTON NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER: They were, to put it mildly, extremely reluctant to see us pursue, unilaterally, any actions which could imperil their troops
AMANPOUR (on camera): The question, then, is, why didn't the U.S. lead from the front? Why? You were the superpower. You had already made statements. Why didn't you lead and convince them
LAKE: Well, we tried to convince them. And the Europeans said, absolutely no |
